Compact Design

The scanner has a compact size of 280 mm (11.02")(W) x 250 mm (9.84")(D) x 230 mm (9.06")(H) when the document feed is closed.

Fast Document Feeding

Documents can be scanned at a speed of up to 60 pages per minute (when scanning one-sided or two-sided documents of A4 size at 200 dpi).

High Image Quality

The 600 dpi optical resolution sensor incorporated in the scanner enables documents to be scanned with high image quality.

USB 2.0 Interface

The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.

Color/Grayscale Support

Documents can be scanned in 24-bit color or 256-level grayscale.

Supports a Variety of Scanning Modes

The scanner supports the following scanning modes, depending on the document type:

Single-sided or double-sided scanning (with Skip Blank Page function)

Continuous or single sheet feed

Card Scan

You can scan business or ID cards.

Paper Size Detection

The scanner automatically detects the size of a scanned document and eliminates any unnecessary space around the edges of the image when storing the image, even when storing a document of irregular size.

Auto Color Detection

The scanner detects whether the scanned document is in color, grayscale, or black and white, and saves the image accordingly.

Full Auto Mode

A Full Auto Mode is provided in CaptureOnTouch to allow scanning under automatically determined conditions. Scanning conditions such as the color mode and page size are set automatically based on the document being scanned.

Auto Resolution Detection

When enabled in the CaptureOnTouch or scanner driver settings, this function detects the content of documents and determines the scanning resolution automatically.

Folio Scan

You can scan folded documents. The scanner will scan both sides and combine the scanned images into a single image.

Deskew

The scanner straightens scanned images when it detects that the document was placed askew.

Ultrasonic Double Feed Detection

Ultrasonic waves are used to detect pages that are fed at the same time as well as the space between pages. Scanning stops if a double feed is detected.

Double Feed Detection Ignore

When a double feed is detected, the DFR button on the operation panel is lit. You can continue scanning by pressing the DFR button.

Double Feed Retry

When a double feed has occurred, this function returns the document to the document feeder and re-feeds the pages.

Text Enhancement Modes

The scanner is equipped with an Advanced Text Enhancement Mode to enhance the text of documents with dark or uneven backgrounds, and an Advanced Text Enhancement II mode to enhance the text when both the text and background are light. These modes may not work, depending on the type of document.

Color Drop-out

The scanner is equipped with a Color Drop-out function that enables you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from the scanned image during black and white or grayscale scanning.

Skip Blank Page Function

The scanner is equipped with a Skip Blank Page function that enables you to scan a document without storing images of blank pages, regardless of whether each page of the document is twosided or one-sided. Both sides are scanned, but saving the image is skipped for scan images judged to be from a blank page.

18

Prescan Function

The scanner is equipped with a Prescan function that allows you to adjust the contrast and brightness of a prescanned image and then send the adjusted image to the application software, without needing to scan the document again.

Character/Line Emphasis Function

If characters and lines in scanned images are not clearly visible, you can use this function to adjust their thickness during scanning.

Start Scanning from the Operating Panel

You can start scanning by launching CaptureOnTouch with the operating panel buttons. By default, Job No.1 is assigned to Scan First, which allows you to easily scan a document by just following the instructions on the screen.

Auto Start

The scanner is equipped with an auto start function, which enables scanning to be automatically started when a document placed in the feeder is detected.

Sleep Mode

The scanner is designed to save energy by automatically entering the sleep mode if 10 minutes elapse without scanning or another operation being performed.

Basic Operation

Documents

The scanner can scan documents ranging in size from business cards to LTR/A4. The document sizes that this scanner can scan are shown below.

Plain Paper

Size

Width: 54 mm to 216 mm (2.12" to 8.5")

Length: 50.8 mm to 356 mm (2" to 14") (You can scan documents up to 3,000 mm (118.1") long by setting the scanner to the Long Document mode.)

Paper thickness

27 to 209 g/m2

 

Normal feed:

(7 to 56 lb bond) 0.04 mm

 

to

0.25 mm (0.00157" to 0.00984")

Non separation feed: 27 to 255 g/m2

(7 to 68 lb bond) 0.04 mm

 

to

0.3 mm (0.00157" to 0.0118")

Loading capacity

A4 size or smaller: 60 sheets (80g/m2 (21 lb bond)) Larger than A4 size: 40 sheets (80g/m2 (21 lb bond)) Make sure stacks do not exceed 10 mm in height (including curls) for either of the above.

IMPORTANT

The documents to be scanned must satisfy certain criteria. Read the following items carefully.

When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers by aligning the centers and leading edges of the documents.

Align the centers

Align the leading edges

Feed roller

It is recommended that documents exceeding 356 mm (14") size are fed one sheet at a time.

Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry before scanning it.

Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the internal parts of the scanner after scanning such documents.

When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. In this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the application software before scanning the document.

When the paper of the document is thin, switch to thin paper mode and then feed the document. For details, see “Placing Thin Paper (Thin Paper Mode)” on p. 28.

Laminated documents may not be scanned correctly, depending on the document.

How to Place Documents

Scanning multiple documents

Standard paper feeding should be used when scanning multiple documents of a standard size at one time. Standard paper feeding enables multiple documents to be fed while separating each page.

1 Open the document eject tray.

2 Pull out the eject support.

When placing long documents, pull out the document eject extension support to match the length of those documents. Also, stand the eject stopper at the end of the eject support if necessary.

IMPORTANT

Pull out the eject support and document eject extension support.

3 Pull out the feed support.

Open the feed extension support when placing long documents.

25

4 Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document to be scanned.

5 Place the document.

After placing the document, align the document guides with both edges of the document.

IMPORTANT

When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut your hand on the edges of the paper.

Make sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit

marks ( ) on the document guides. Up to 60 pages of ordinary plain paper (80 g/m2) can be loaded at the same time.

Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the document, or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the scanner while you are using it, as this may result in personal injury. Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets caught in the scanner, immediately turn OFF the power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.

Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document is curled, it may cause a paper jam.

If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has been stored, and then resume scanning the remaining document pages.

After you finish scanning, close the document eject tray to prevent damage to the scanner while it is not being used.

When scanning a document one page at a time (non separation mode)

When scanning a thick document one page at a time or scanning a document that has multiple pages fastened together, set document feeding to non separation mode. This enables the placed document to be scanned without the pages being separated, regardless of the number of pages.

Non separation mode switching is performed by opening the scanner driver settings screen.

1 Sets the scanning conditions.

26

2 Place the document as described in the “Scanning multiple documents” procedure on p. 25.

IMPORTANT

When scanning multiple page documents that are fastened together, such as invoices, place the documents so that the edge that is fastened together is facing down.

1 Opens the scanner driver's Detail Settings screen.(See p. 57)

2 Open the [Feeding] Tab.

3 Select the [Non Separation Feeding Mode] check box.

4 Click the [OK] button to close the settings screen.

Placing Thin Paper (Thin Paper Mode)

When placing a document with thin paper, switch the mode of the scanner to thin paper mode. In thin paper mode, the placed document is fed in a manner that prevents it from being damaged.

Thin paper mode switching is performed by opening the scanner driver settings screen.

1 Sets the scanning conditions.

2 Place the document as described in the “Scanning multiple documents” procedure on p. 25.

Hint

When scanning multiple page documents that are fastened together, such as invoices, select the [Non Separation Feeding Mode] check box in step 4. Also, it is recommended to place the documents in the scanner one at a time with the edge that is fastened together facing down.

When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, the scanned documents may not be ejected neatly onto the document eject tray. When scanning such documents, open the eject tray support.

1 Opens the scanner driver's Detail Settings screen. (See p. 57)

2 Open the [Feeding] tab.

3 Select the [Thin Paper Mode] check box.

4 Click the [OK] button to close the settings screen.

4 Click to close the dialog box.

Placing Cards

When scanning cards, switch the scanner to non separation mode and then place one card at a time horizontally.

1 Switch the scanner to non separation mode.

2 Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the card to be scanned.

3 Place the card horizontally, with the reverse side facing you, and the top of the card facing down.

CAUTION

Place the cards one at a time.

When scanning cards, place them to be fed horizontally. If you place cards to be fed vertically, they may not be ejected properly, and cards that get jammed may be damaged when you remove them.

Hint

Up to 3 cards can be placed in the scanner at the same time if they are not embossed. In such a case, turn off non separation mode before scanning.

29

Placing Folded Documents

Folio Scan enables you to scan documents that are larger than LTR/ A4 and therefore do not fit in the feeder. To use the function, fold the document in half lengthwise and place it into the feeder. The DRM160II will scan both sides and combine the scanned images into a single image.

1 Sets the scanning conditions.

2 Fold the document in half.

Crease the document firmly down its center to fold the document in half. Fold the document so that its edges are neatly aligned. If the document is not folded properly, paper jams may occur or distortions may appear in the combined scanned image.

IMPORTANT

A portion of the scanned image will be missing at the fold line.

3 Place the document with the folded edge facing right and the top edge facing downward.

IMPORTANT

Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document. Otherwise, the image may scan as skewed or shifted.

Hint

The side of the folded document facing you will become the right side of the combined image.

The maximum size for the combined image is A2. Use this method to scan A2-sized documents. When scanning a folded document of a size other than the standard formats, set [Page Size] on the scanner driver settings screen to [Match original size]. (See p. 60)

1Opens the scanner driver's Detail Settings screen. (See p. 57)

2Set [Page Size] on the [Basic] tab to a size that is half that of the paper to be actually scanned, and set [Scanning Side] to [Folio].

For example, when scanning a document of A3 size folded, set [Page Size] to [A4].
