| 25-pin Connector | Cable connector consisting of two rows of pins, 13 on top, 12 on the bottom. Mustek scanner cables use 25-pin connectors. Also known as a DB-25 connector. |
| 30-bit Color | Rating for a scanner capable of recognizing up to one billion colors. Since this is higher than computer video display standards, the colors are averaged and optimized to 24-bit before being transferred. See bit depth. |
| 36-bit Color | Rating for a scanner capable of recognizing up to 68.7 billion colors. Since this is higher than computer video display standards, the colors are averaged and optimized to 24-bit before being transferred. See bit depth. |
