LiDE 300 - can't scan at 2400dpi on Mac

glennreid — Thu, 03 Aug 2023 18:27:23 GMT

I've been scouring past posts and the drivers available for Mac and have hit a wall.

I am running MacOS 12.6.3 Monterey, and bought this scanner SPECIFICALLY so I could scan at 2400dpi, like it says on the box.

The "IJ Scan Utility Lite" only goes to 600dpi.

Is there some app that will actually unlock the full 2400dpi, or do I have to return this scanner?

Hi,

While there is no driver, as a workaround you try can the software package that was used on previous operating systems. Please be advised this software was for a previous operating system and I can't guarantee that is will work with the current MacOS. To download the software please click HERE.

hi glennreid, just came across this problem too. did you ever find a fix? pretty inconvenient if it says it allows 2400 dpi but can only do max 10208 x 14032 pixels.
