The dpi (dots per inch) is how detailed the scanner makes the image, higher dpi equals more pixels to describe the image. Compression is a method (there are many kinds) to decrease the graphic file size to a more manageable size for power points, emails etc. I would suggest scanning at a high DPI until you are happy with the image and then try to save it as a compressed jpeg. It would be better to separate the text from the images but I'm not sure of your layout. You can usually view the image in a graphic viewer and save or export with options to decrease the file size.

Hello, Cnet is a safe website to download drivers from. If you cannot find the driver from Lexmark's website, you can download it from Cnet. Download.com is also part of cnet and that is safe as well.
Thanks for using FixYa!

The scan unit in your All-In-One is a CCD model: for a paper to be copied or scanned the A-I-O must detect what's on it; this is done by a sensor similar to one from a photo camera that basically takes a very detailed picture; for the sensor to work a very special light must be used so a set of special tubes are used to generate the light.
In your case one of these tubes is failing and the light it generates is way off than the shade it should give - the end result is that the colors from the image that results after the scan are off. Unfortunately this is unfixable - the only thing that would fix it would be to replace the entire lighting unit, but it's not sold as a replacement part by Dell.
So your scan unit from the A-I-O is effectively dead - but you can still use it as a simple printer, that part is functioning perfectly. If you really need the scan part then your only 2 options are:
1 - to find another Dell 962 with a defective printer side and cannibalize its scanning unit
or
2 - to buy a new A-I-O.
1. Turn on your all-in-one printer and computer. Check the connections between the two machines.
2. Lift the printer's document lid. Examine the scanning surface and the underside of the lid for dust and fingerprints.
3. Put the document you wish to scan face-down on the glass. Use the alignment markers to help you square up the object. These are usually found on the left-hand edge of the scanning area.
4.Close the printer's document lid slowly so the document does not shift position.
5. Select a scan resolution. The higher the dpi (dots per inch) count, the sharper and more detailed the image.
6. Push the scan button. You may have to do this on the printer itself or on your computer.
7. Check the preview of your scan on your computer. Depending on your all-in-one printer and software, you may have to prompt your computer to display the preview for you.
8. Edit the image as it appears on your computer if you want to make changes. Your scanning software might let you enlarge, resize or otherwise manipulate the final product.
9. Accept the scan and save. Return the original document to a safe location.

Contrast is the degree of difference between light and dark. Increasing the scan contrast setting further blackens dark areas and whitens bright areas, whereas decreasing the contrast setting reduces the difference between bright and dark areas. You can adjust the contrast among three contrast levels.
