Explanation

The Sharpness property sets the level of sharpness.

Sharpness is enabled for certain Epson and Panasonic scan drivers only. When using an Epson scanner, the datasource will be "Epson Scan" which will allow the above gradated settings. Note that some Epson scanners, depending on the version, allow for only "on / off" settings. In this case the ImageKit will accept values of 0 or nonzero.

For Epson scanners, the "unsharp mask" is used and for Panasonic scanners "image quality" is used.

This property is enabled when the UserInterface is Suppress. The possible setting values supported by a scan device can be retrieved using the GetCapabilityEnumToSingle method.
