Advanced Features
The Trūper scanner boasts a broad feature set that complements a robust hardware platform. These
advanced features enhance the scanner's ability to provide clean, crisp images. Kofax VirtualReScan Plus
(VRS 4.0) enables many of these features. Other features are part of the scanner driver.
The following list provides a brief description of some of the more unique advanced features of Trūper.
Additional information about these featur es can be fou nd in oth er sect ion s of th is or othe r included
manuals on your Trūper Installation Resource CD-ROM.
Auto Color Detect - This feature automatically identifies color documents from bitonal documents while
scanning is in process. Auto Color Detect helps reduce document preparation of mixed batches that
contain both color and bitonal images. Please refer to the VRS manual on your Trūper Installation
Resource CD-ROM.
Auto Orientation - This feat ure automatically rot ates a page th at is scanned in a non-st andard or ientation.
There is no need to perform manual rota tion on each image af ter scanning. Auto Ori entatio n eliminates the
need to pre-sort batches of documents to ensure they are facing the same direction. Please refer to the
VRS manual on your Trūper Installation Resource CD-ROM.
Bar Code Recognition - This image filter recognizes the bar codes in the scanned images. Refer to the
application’s operating manual for how to use the bar code.
Blank Page Deletion - This feature detects and deletes blank pages based on content. Blank Page
Deletion is intended for batch scanning in Duplex mode. Please refer to the VRS manual on your Trūper
Installation Resource CD-ROM.
Background Saturation - Use this feature when scanning documents with color backgrounds. Saturating
or “smoothing” a document image changes th e docume nt background into one uniform color . “Smoothing”
refers to the automated process of creating a fixed, uniform background. This process removes both
scanning and paper non-uniformity and will allow the image to be compressed more effectively. Please
refer to the VRS manual on your Trūper Installation Resource CD-ROM.
Multicolor Dropout - This feature removes specific and multiple colors from an imag e. Multicol or Dropou t
can be used in simplex and duplex scanning with independent colors dropped out on either side. Please
refer to Appendix 2 - Multicolor Dropout (MCD) and Single Color Dropout sections of this manual (starting
on page 123
Double Feed Recovery - This feature detects the d ouble feeding of document s and allows th e operator to
correct the missfed documents without stopping the scanning application. Witho ut Double Feed Recovery,
the scanner operator may have to rescan the entire batch.

Auto Color Detect, Auto Orientation, and Blank Page Deletion are VRS Plus features only.
