The scanner has a compact size of 300 (W) x 339 (H) x 235 (D) (11.81" (W) x 13.3" (H) x 9.25" (D)) mm when the document feed is open. A newly designed feed mechanism saves space by eliminating the need for space to eject paper at the front of the scanner.

zFast Document Feeding

Documents can be scanned at a speed of up to 25 pages per minute (when scanning one-sided or two-sided documents of A4 size at 200 dpi).

zTwo Eject Paths for Scanning a Variety of Documents

Use the U-turn path to scan paper of standard thickness, or use the straight path to scan cards and other thick documents.

zHigh Image Quality

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

zUSB 2.0 Interface

The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.

3

zColor/Grayscale Support

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

zSupports 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

zCard Scan

You can scan business or ID cards.

zPaper 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.

zAuto Color Detection

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

zFull Auto Mode

A Full Auto Mode is provided in CaptureOnTouch and the scanner driver 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.

zAuto Resolution Detection

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

zFolio Scan

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

zDeskew

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

zUltrasonic 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.

zText Enhancement Modes

The scanner is equipped with the Advanced Text Enhancement Mode (only for Windows), for enhancing the text of documents with dark or uneven backgrounds, and the Advanced Text Enhancement II mode, for enhancing the text when both the text and background are light.

These modes may not work, depending on the type of document.

zColor 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.

zSkip 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.

zPrescan 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.

zCharacter/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.

zCaptureOnTouch

The bundled CaptureOnTouch software lets you register specific scanning procedures suited to particular document types and applications for easy access just by selecting the scanning job.

zScanning Shortcut

Using CaptureOnTouch, you can register commonly used combinations of scan modes and output methods as [Scanning Shortcut] for quick access. Any [Scanning Shortcut] can be assigned a start button.

zAuto 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.

4

zSleep Mode

The scanner is designed to save energy by entering the sleep mode when it is not scanning documents.

Documents

###HOME > Chapter 5 Placing Documents > Documents###

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

Plain Paper

Size

Width: 50.8 mm to 216 mm (2" to 8.5")

Length: 53.9 mm to 356 mm (2.12" to 14")*

	Paper weight
	When U-turn path:	52 to 128 g/m2	(14 to 34 lb bond)
		0.06 to 0.15 mm (0.0024" to 0.0059")
	When straight path:	40 to 209 g/m2	(11 to 58 lb bond)
		0.05 to 0.25 mm (0.002" to 0.0098")

* Setting the scanner to Long Document mode enables documents up to 3,000 mm (118.1") long to be scanned. For details on Long Document mode, refer to "Setting the Long Document Mode" on p.34.

A document must meet the following criteria to be scannable:

zWhen scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers.

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

zScanning 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.

zScanning 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.

zWhen 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.

zIt is recommended that thin documents are fed one sheet at a time.

Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam or malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the document and then scan the photocopy.

	Wrinkled or creased			Carbon paper
	documents
	Curled documents			Coated paper
	Torn documents			Extremely thin, translucent
				paper
	Documents with paper clips			Documents with excessive
	or staples			paper dust particles.
Business Card
Size:		50.8 mm x 53.9 mm (2" x 2.12") or larger
Paper weight:		300 g/m2 (80 lb bond) 0.35 mm (0.0138") or less
Orientation:		Vertical feeding only

If a stack of business cards cannot be fed properly, reduce the number of cards in the stack.

Card (plastic or laminated)

	Size:	53.9 mm x 85.5 mm (2.12" x 3.37") (ISO standard)
	Card thickness:	0.76 mm (0.03") or less, 1.4 mm (0.055") or less for the
		embossment
	Orientation:	Horizontal feeding only
	Feed path:	Straight path only

Embossed cards can be scanned.

Use the straight path when scanning cards.

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. Take care of the orientation when placing cards.

Embossed cards may not be able to be scanned correctly, depending on the type of embossment.

Switching the Feed and Eject Methods

###HOME > Chapter 5 Placing Documents > Switching the Feed and Eject Methods###

Use the two levers on the scanner to switch the feed and eject methods based on the type of document you are scanning.

The feed and eject methods and lever positions for each document type are as follows.

	Document type	Feed method	Eject method
		(lever position)	(lever position)
	Standard paper and	Standard feeding (lower)	U-turn path (upper) or
	business cards		straight path (lower)
	Plastic cards, thick	Non separation feeding	Straight path (lower)
	paper, thin paper,	(upper)
	and bound or
	fastened paper

Placing Documents for Standard Feeding

###HOME > Chapter 5 Placing Documents > Placing Documents for Standard Feeding###

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

1Open the document feed tray.

2Pull out the feed support.

3 When scanning long documents, pull out the feed extension plates	4 Set the feed selection lever and the eject selection lever.
and eject support.	Set the feed selection lever to the standard feeding position (lower position).
	Set the eject selection lever to the U-turn path position ( ).

When scanning documents that contain both standard paper and plastic cards, use the straight path.

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

27

6Place the document.

Insert the document in the feed tray so that the front is facing forward and the top is facing upward.

After inserting the document in the document feeder, align the document guides with both edges of the document.

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

zMake sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit

marks ( ) on the document guides. Up to 30 pages of ordinary plain paper (80 g/m2) can be loaded at the same time.

zBefore 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.

zDo not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the scanner while you are using it. 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.

zAlways 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.

zIf 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.

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

zAlthough standard feeding can be used in combination with the straight path when scanning, multi-page documents will be ejected in reverse order in such cases.

28

zIf you select the [Upside-down feeding] check box in the scanner driver settings, you can insert documents into the scanner in the opposite orientation ("When you want to scan a document placed upside-down" on p.78).

Placing Documents for Non Separation Feeding

###HOME > Chapter 5 Placing Documents > Placing Documents for Non Separation Feeding###

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.

1Set the feed selection lever and the eject selection lever.

Set the feed selection lever to the non separation position (upper position). The feed selection indicator will light orange.

Set the eject selection lever to the straight path position ( ).

29

2Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document.

3Place the document in the document feed tray.

zWith the straight path, documents are ejected at the front of the scanner. Do not place anything that will block output near the document eject area. Also, install the scanner on a smooth surface to enable documents to be smoothly ejected.

zWhen 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.
