Use this option if your scanning software requires specific hardware for operation.

Compression Settings

Scanner for Remote Desktop Compression Settings

There are few image compression algorithms available in the Scanner for Remote Desktop. You can choose suitable among the next options.

Compression disabled
Disabling compression increases the size of the data being transferred but it reduces CPU usage. It works best for slow computers.
Lossless compression
Enabling Lossless compression reduces the size of the data being transferred and here is no loss in image quality. It works best with text documents.
Lossy compression (JPEG)
Enabling Lossy JPEG compression significantly reduces the size of the data being transferred with slight loss in image quality. It works best with full-color images and photos. You can adjust compression level using the slider below.
Use scanner hardware compression
If enabled, the program will try to compress images using scanner's driver. If scanner does not support own compression methods, the compression will be performed by Scanner for Remote Desktop.

Defaults
