Default Color Mode

This policy allows to override default scanning color mode (e.g. Color or Grayscale).
This is really useful in cases if scanning application scans without displaying Scanning Preferences dialog and does not allow to configure color mode internally also.

Supported on: At least Windows Server 2003 operating systems or Windows XP Professional
