600dpi. The file is 22MB vs 12MB, so that's
worth it. The 1200dpi version
was almost 70MB which is starting to get a bit large for a 60 sheet
document. The sweet spot seems to be 600dpu, at least for this material.
I don't know about the ScanSnap specifically, but I suspect that
1200dpi mode may be interpolated, not true optical 1200. In either
case, I've rarely seen any great benefit to using >600, at least on
any scanner I've used (my main workhorse now being a Fujitsu
fi-5750C).
