If you are using the Full Page scanner with MastrScan* software
and find the image distorted (pixels displaced about 8 pixels) or
find you cannot scan at 300 dpi, you may need to modify the
smooth scroll option to No.
     
To change this parameter go into INSTALLS choose modify existing
parameters F3.  The next selection is PC configuration.  The last
parameter on this screen will be smooth scroll, set it to no.
Press F10 twice to save your changes, then reboot.

Smooth Scroll set to No builds a slight delay in the display
while scanning routine.  The scanning will be the same speed, but
when you turn this option off, the displaying of the image while
scanning will be slower.  If your PC is unable to handle the
scanning and displaying of the image at the same time, it might
distort the images or prevent you from scanning altogether.
Adding the slight delay usually fixes the problem.

 If you own a 386 or a 486 machine, you will probably have to set
it to NO.

If you still have the displaced pixel problem after turning
smooth Scroll to NO, look for another product being loaded in the
PC that may be disturbing the data across the DMA channel.  The
most common software product that causes this problem is memory
managers (EMM386, QEMM, etc.). Disable your memory manager device
driver and try scanning again.
