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.

Note

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

• Do NOT scan currency.

• Do NOT scan copyrighted material or the work of others except for private use or when

authorized by the copyright owner or owners.

• Do NOT scan certificates, licenses, passports, or official or private documents except when such work is authorized.

Guidelines for Using the ADF

For best results, follow these guidelines for documents that will be scanned using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder):

Caution

Prior to scanning with the ADF, remove all staples and paper clips from sheets.

Recommended paper: Plain paper with a maximum sheet thickness of 2.0 to 5.9 mils (0.05 to 0.15 mm) and weight of 10.6 to 34 pounds (40 to 127 grams/meter paper represents the weight of 500 sheets in the “basic sheet size” of the paper, in this case 17 x 22 inches (432 x 559 mm). The basic sheet size is not the same for all types of paper.

Acceptable document size for the ADF:

1.90 - 11.70 inches (40 - 297 mm)

Feeding direction

). 1 mil = 1/1000 inch. The weight in pounds of

2.75 - 25.00 inches (70 - 635 mm)

www.bbhscanners.com 51 of 142

Page 52

Glued or curled documents may cause a paper jam or damage in the ADF unit. The height of the documents placed in the feeder tray must not exceed the paper limit mark that

appears on the right side of the document guide. (See the diagram on page 57.

)

The following chart indicates the maximum number of sheets that can be loaded on the feeder tray:

Paper weight (pounds) 11 14 17 20 21 24 28 34

Paper weight (grams/meter2) Maximum number of sheets 320 260 200 170 160 140 120 100

40 52 64 75 80 90 104 127

Sheets that are exceptionally thick or thin should be placed in the ADF manually, one sheet at a time. Curled, wrinkled, or folded documents may not scan properly. Check the allowances for curl and fold

in the following diagram:

Feeding direction Curl must be less than 0.20 inches (5 mm)

Feeding direction

Fold must be less than 0.20 inches (5 mm)

www.bbhscanners.com 52 of 142

Page 53

Types of Documents to Avoid in the ADF

The following types of documents may cause jams in the ADF or may cause the ADF to feed more than one sheet at a time:

• Overhead projector sheets, other plastic films, cloths or metallic sheets

• Paper with irregularities such as tabs, staples, paste and similar items

• Documents with wet ink

• Thick or irregular documents such as envelopes or documents that are glued together

• Thermal or heat sensitive paper

• Tracing paper

• Copying paper such as carbon paper

• Damaged or wrinkled documents

• Photographs

• Coated paper

• Thick plastic cards such as credit cards or identification cards

• Torn sheets and documents with notches or holes, or punched or perforated sheets

• Extremely smooth or shiny paper

• Paper that is highly textured

• Paper with carbon sheets

• Carbonless (NCR) paper

If a jam occurs in the document feeder, reduce the number of sheets loaded on the feeder to about 20. If a paper jam or feeding of more than one sheet occurs, clea n the rollers as described beginning on

page 75

If the document is not properly scanned, scan the documents b y feeding individual sheet s manually into

the ADF.

Using the Trūper ADF

The Trūper ADF (Automatic Documen t Feeder) enables multiple sh eet scanning. For the best result s when scanning multiple sheets, follow the docu ment preparation re commendations and procedur es as described in “

Document Preparation” on page51. To use the Multifeed Ignore feature, refer to page 62. To load

documents in the ADF, perform the following procedure:

Caution

Prior to scanning with the ADF, remove all staples and paper clips from sheets.

Separate documents that have been stapled or clipped together. Remove glued documents and documents that are curled; these types of document may cause a paper jam and damage the unit.

1. Fan the stack of documents to separate all the sheets. Be sure the edges of the sheets do not stick together.

2. Hold both edges of the sheets and bend the documents.

3. To flatten the documents, hold firmly then pull them apart.

Repeat these steps as necessary to be sure the stack of documents is completely separated.

Carefully align the documents.

www.bbhscanners.com 54 of 142

Multifeed Ignore

Multifeed Ignore enables you to allow a single page to go through the scanner without having the scanner stop for a multifeed condition. Multifeed Ignore can be used with envelopes, documents with attached Post-it notes, documents with photographs or any other document that is comprised of two overlapping items. The Multifeed Ignore function works for only the top document in the scanned batch, once the scanner has been set up for Multifeed Ignore. If you require multiple docu ment s to go throug h the scanner that will trigger the scanner to stop because of a multifeed, consider modifying the multifeed settings. Refer to “

Detect Double Feed” on page 67 for instructions on how to do this.

If a multifeed error occurs, remove the document from the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) by opening the ADF or by pressing the STOP/START button.

Press and hold the STOP/START button for 2 seconds until the LED light alternates between green and orange. When this occurs, the scanner is in Multifeed Ignore mode. Re-insert the document in which you wan to ignore the multifeed on top of the document stack and place on the ADF.

Either re-initiate the scan within your scanning software, or the scanner will automatically begin scanning again.

Note

The Multifeed Ignore function only works for one document at a time. Once a document goes through, the scanner will stop if a new multifeed condition occurs.

To clear the Multifeed Ignore feature, open either the imprinter door , the top of the ADF or the bo ttom of the ADF.

Changing the Background Color

You can select the background reference color for the documents you scan. The background reference color is the color of the plate that is behind the document. Depending the type of document b eing scanned and the features of your scanning application, the background color is important because it may affect the cropping quality of the scanned image. For example, when VRS is selected, crop filters may not work properly if the black background is not selected. In addition, the white background color may af fect the use of other scanning features that need to be resolved within the scanning applications feature settings.

The default background color has been set to black. You can set the background color to white or black. To change the background color and then change the color reference plates to match the color selected with the reference plates. Follow the procedures in the next two sections.
