How can I change the image resolution for the SS Pro/Value/Adaptive?

How can I change the image resolution for the SS Pro/Value/Adaptive?

For Ranger for SS Pro/Value/Adaptive v2.X.X.X (CAPI):

The setting below will change the bitonal and grayscale image resolution. Grayscale resolution will be half the bitonal.

The option needs to be set through the Ranger driver option in CapiOption.ini or it will be overwritten to a value of 1.  See below:
  1. [CAPI INI]
  2. IMAGE.GENERAL.200DPI=0
This setting is copied to the CapiImage.ini file below but this file is overwritten by Ranger so you must use the option above.
  1. [GENERAL]
  2. // 200DPI
  3. // (Applies only to the SNDP and SS Expert/Pro/Value.)
  4. // This specifies that images are scaled from 240 to 200 DPI.  This applies to all images. 
  5. //(Only valid for SNDPs manufactured after Nov 2003 using CAPI 7.0 or higher).
  6. // The following values can be selected:
  7. //  0 = 240 DPI (Default)
  8. //  1 = 200 DPI
  9. 200DPI=0
It's best practice that the application set these options programmatically:
  1. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("CAPI INI", "IMAGE.GENERAL.200DPI", "0");
To set grayscale images at full resolution, set the following driver options:
  1. [Image.UIMFRONTIMG3]
  2. // COMPRESSIONTYPE
  3. //  0 = Disabled
  4. //  5 = Full Resolution JPEG
  5. // 15 = Full Resolution JPEG
  6. // 16 = Full Resolution JPEG Ultraviolet Inverted
  7. // The default is 0.
  8. COMPRESSIONTYPE=5

  10. //TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE
  11. // 0 = Snippet is obtained via passthrough calls (default).
  12. //
  13. // 1 = COMPRESSIONTYPE will determine in
  14. //           which image buffer the snippet will be stored.
  15. //           5 - Snippet will be stored in GS buffer
  16. //           15-16 Snippet will be stored in UV buffer.
  17. //The default is 0.
  18. TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE=1

  20. [Image.UIMREARIMG2]
  21. //
  22. //Compression type
  23. //    0 = disabled
  24. //    3 = JPEG
  25. //    5 = Full Resolution JPEG
  26. //
  27. COMPRESSIONTYPE=5

  29. [CAPI INI]
  30. IMAGE.GENERAL.200DPI = 1

It's best practice that the application set these options programatically:
  1. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.UIMFRONTIMG3", "COMPRESSIONTYPE", "5");
  2. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.UIMFRONTIMG3", "TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE", "1");
  3. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.UIMREARIMG2", "COMPRESSIONTYPE", "5");
  4. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("CAPI INI", "IMAGE.GENERAL.200DPI", "1");

For Ranger for SS Pro/Value/Adaptive v4.0.0.0+ (Smart PVA):

The settings below will change the bitonal and grayscale image resolution.  
By default, grayscale resolution will be half the bitonal resolution.

Burroughs-SmartPVA.ini
  1. [Image.GENERAL]
  2. // 200DPI
  3. // (Applies only to the SNDP and SS Expert/Pro/Value.)
  4. // This specifies that images are scaled from 240 to 200
  5. // DPI.  This applies to all images.  
  6. //(Only valid for SNDPs manufactured after Nov 2003
  7. // using CAPI 7.0 or higher).
  8. // The following values can be selected:
  9. //  0 = 240 DPI
  10. //  1 = 200 DPI (Default)
  11. // Note: Grayscale images come at half resolution unless
  12. // specified otherwise with the Compression type.  Rear
  13. // grayscale images must use the snippet for full resolution
  14. 200DPI=1

It's best practice that the application set these options programmatically:
  1. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.GENERAL", "200DPI", "1");

The front grayscale can be set to match the bitonal grayscale by setting the following option to 5. TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE must also be set to '1' in order to utilize this functionality.
Burroughs-SmartPVA.ini
  1. [Image.UIMFRONTIMG3]
  2. //
  3. // COMPRESSIONTYPE
  4. //  0 = Disabled
  5. //  5 = Full Resolution JPEG
  6. // 15 = Full Resolution JPEG Ultraviolet
  7. // 16 = Full Resolution JPEG Ultraviolet Inverted
  8. // The default is 0.
  9. COMPRESSIONTYPE=0

  11. // TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE
  12. // 0 = Snippet is obtained via passthrough calls (default).
  13. //
  14. // 1 = COMPRESSIONTYPE will determine in
  15. //          which image buffer the snippet will be stored.
  16. //          5 - Snippet will be stored in GS buffer
  17. //          15-16 Snippet will be stored in UV buffer.
  18. // The default is 0.
  19. TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE=0

The rear grayscale can be set to match the bitonal grayscale by setting the following option to 5.
  1. [Image.RearGrayscale]
  2. //
  3. // Compression type
  4. //    3 = JPEG
  5. //    5 = Full Resolution JPEG
  6. // The default is 3.
  7. COMPRESSIONTYPE=5

It's best practice that the application set these options programmatically:
  1. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.UIMFRONTIMG3", "COMPRESSIONTYPE", "0");
  2. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.UIMFRONTIMG3", "TREATSNIPPETASIMAGE", "0");
  3. m_Ranger.SetDriverOption("Image.RearGrayscale", "COMPRESIONTYPE", "5");
