A computer, a scanner and reliable graphics software is everything you need to preserve your old photos. Clean the photos and the scanner before proceeding. Then select the type of scan (color or black and white). The images should be stored at a minimum of 300dpi if you want to store them on CDs or DVDs and you want to enhance them too. The photo should be placed face down on the glass. Crop the preview to include just the
image if the scanner doesn't automatically do that. Don't correct while scanning. See whether you have enough free memory and adjust the scan resolution, then allow a few minutes for the scan.
