If you’re scanning your photos to share them by e-mail or make an online album, the quality of your scan might not be as important to you as it is when scanning to make prints. Scanners are particularly handy when making copies of old, damaged, faded or one-of-a-kind photos. Using photo-editing software, you can restore these photos and save them in high-resolution versions capable of a high-quality print. They can be copied and framed for gifts or become part of crafty, handmade family trees and calendars.
