I have to echo Larry here. Having scanned over 500 books with K1000, I can
definitively say there are no magic settings. Certainly, grayscale does work
pretty well a lot of the time; but it isn’t always the best setting. Use the
optimize scanning feature and you’ll see that it often chooses settings other
than grayscale, and brightness levels can vary considerably from one book to
another. Those are just two examples. Other settings can also affect scan
quality.
So either do some tests, or try out the optimize scanning feature and go with
that. For a beginner, I would recommend using the optimizer. It is true that
there are times when it may not give the absolute best result, but I still
think it’s the best way to go until you’ve scanned a good number of books and
develop some intuition as to whether to stick with what the optimizer gives you
or change it.
