How to scan higher than 600dpi with LiDE 220

Hello, I've had an LiDE 220 for years with IJ Scan Utility installed, and ScanGear was an extensive menu where I could scan at a very high DPI (usually did 1200+)

I recently got a new laptop, upgraded to Windows 11, and re-installed IJ Scan Utility, but the main interface is different and now the only DPI option is in "settings", where I can set it to 600 max. 

How do I scan higher than 600, or somehow get the other version back?

Hi rjpreziosi,

The CanoScan LiDE 220 can still scan at higher DPIs when installed with Windows 11.

With the IJ Scan Utility open, you can click the ScanGear button to open the driver interface.  Once open, you can click on the Advanced Mode tab in the upper right to acess those settings.  In the Output Mode section, for Output Resolution, select a resolution from the drop down list displayed by clicking the button, or manually enter a value within the range of 25 dpi to 19200 dpi (in 1 dpi increments).
