I use the same model and set it to 600 dpi.

I'm looking for the best way (not only DPI) all around with a canon 4400F. Does the door need to be up? How much light is needed in the room at the time of scanning? ect.... What is the ultimate way to scan a card in a PSA SLAB>

Using a CCD scanner with the door up will give a nice black background. The disparity between similar CCD scanners you see in this thread is mainly due to software scan settings (sharpening, color adjustment etc.) and not how much ambient light is in the room when the scan is taken.

Matt,

What is the method you use to scan and what program do you use? I have a Canon 4400f (which has CCD) and I also have Adobe Photoshop 7 to do the rest of the work. I'm looking to scan my CJ's for use in my set at PSA registry.

I have an HP L7780 Multi-Function (uses CCD) and use HP's software to scan.

I found that, for me, the truest color comes with the following software settings (used for the scan above):
Highlights +25
Shadows -25
Sharpen Level Low
150 ppi

Default Mr. Steele

Could you please use another card? Tired of that T204 yet, name a price.
