Epson Perfection 3490 Photo Specifications
Consequently, the Epson 3490 is a scanner for people with a budget for photographs. They care about performance and pictures, but the cost also doesn’t have to be sky-high. And pretty decent, if frequently bawdy. There is a maximum of 3200 x 6400 dpi optical resolution to scan photos and documents reasonably clearly. As well as its utility on film and transparency, the built-in unit for negatives and holes is very convenient. Plus, its speed is excellent!
Ease of use is a standout feature. The Epson 3490 scanner has a user-friendly interface that anyone can operate at their computer desk. Besides, one-button scanning to e-mail or PDF files is just a keystroke away in the machine! They have included software like Epson Easy Photo Fix, which has essential image editing tools. Color restoration and dust removal will make your old photograph look new at the touch of a button. However, these automatic corrections are only suitable for casual users seeking to liven up their old snapshots, and they need to catch up on what professionals do in restoration.
Since it is not conceived as a rival in robustness to professional-grade, specialized scanners tailored to the needs of photographers and artists. Instead, it is meant for simplicity and cheapness, making it suitable for home users or the average amateur photographer with moderate requirements. Despite this tradeoff between function and cost, one would need help finding a more sensible scanning solution anywhere in this price range.
