A question about the copy function of the Epson Eco Tank ET-8550. The machine offers three tapable quality levels (scan resolutions) on the touchup display (as well as on the computer): Standard / High / Best. Is it possible to look up the default scan resolution for each of these three levels and adjust it if necessary? Despite several searches in the online manual and in the menu, I have not yet found the corresponding menu function. Thank you for any support!
... there is a configuration portal with all parameterisation options ...

Recommended resolutions for your projects
Resolution indicates the number of pixels (small area of an image) per inch (25.4 mm) and is measured in dpi (dots per inch). The advantage of increasing the resolution is that the details in the image become finer. However, it can also have the following disadvantages.
The file size becomes large
(If you double the resolution, the file size becomes about four times larger).
Scanning, saving and reading the image takes a lot of time
The image becomes too large to display or print on paper
The information in the table will help you select the appropriate resolution for the purpose of the scanned image.
