I just bought a Canon Pixma TS6520 which says has 1200 x 2400 dpi. When I open up the basic scanner controls, the highest dpi I can input is 600 dpi, not any increment higher. I wanted to scan some old photo for enlargement that would require a higher resolution.
Is there other program I should use to scan at 1200 or 2400 dpi?
I still have 3 weeks to return it...
Thanks!

Thank you all. This was confusing because only the scangear application supports scan resolution higher than 600 dpi. The control panel on the TS6520 does not go above 600 dpi, neither does the Canon Print application installed by default.
