MEMO
Scanning Utility 5060 uses a dedicated scanner driver. Scanner drivers such
as the ISIS driver and TWAIN driver are not required.
When you install Scanning Utility 5060, another folder “\ceiscan” is created
under the Windows folder in addition to the installation destination folder, and the file “cei*.dll” is copied to \Windows\system. Scanning Utility 5060 will not function properly if these files are modified.
Scanning Utility 5060 uses “wnaspi32.dll” for controlling the scanner. The
scanner will not operate if “wnaspi32.dll” is not correctly installed.
NOTE
When Scanning Utility 5060 is used, set the scanner to the Backup mode or the Scanner Only mode. If Scanning Utility 5060 is used in the Filmer only mode, an error message is displayed when scanning is started.

About Scanner Operation Modes
The scanner operation mode can be verified by the state of the Backup key on the scanner’s operation panel. In the Backup mode, the Backup key is lit, in the Scanner Only mode, it is out, and in the Filmer Only mode, it is blinking. (See DR­5060F Instructions “About Operation Modes” P. 40) As Scanning Utility 5060 does not operate with the scanner in the Filmer Only mode, be sure to set the scanner to either the Backup mode or the Scanner Only mode.
About Feeding Options
The feeding option selection and operation procedure differ according to the Feeding Option key setting. As the Feeding Option key setting is also reflected in Scanning Utility 5050, check the Feeding Option key before you start scanning. (See “Feeder Option” P. 63)
• When the Feeding Option key is out indicating [Remote] mode, scanning is started when scanning is instructed in Scanning Utility 5060. Check the original before you instruct start of scanning.
• When the Feeding Option lamp indicates the [Manual] mode, the document tray rises, and the scanner stands by for loading of the document and instruction of start of scanning. Instruct start of scanning in Scanning Utility 5060, and manually load the original one sheet at a time.
• When the Feeding Option lamp indicates the [Auto] mode, the Start key turns green and the scanner stands by for the original to be loaded when start of scanning is instructed in Scanning Utility 5060. Scanning is automatically started when the original is loaded on the document tray. Scanning is not started when the original has already been loaded and start of scanning is instructed in Scanning Utility 5060. To start scanning in this case, either press the Start key, or remove the original and then put it back on the document tray.
• When the Feeding Option lamp indicates the [Semi-Auto] mode, the Start key turns green and the scanner stands by for the Start key to be pressed when start of scanning is instructed in Scanning Utility 5060. Load the original on the document tray , and then press the Start key.
Before You Start Scanning

About Backing Up to Microfilm
When the scanner is set to the Backup mode, all scanned document sheets are backed up to microfilm.
• If a system error or paper jam occurs during scanning and stops paper feed, clear the paper jam, for example, and make sure that the image of the last original page output from the scanner has been properly recorded to the computer. As you cannot confirm the image that has been photographed to film, discontinue the scan job, and repeat the procedure from scanning of the original that jammed to continue scanning.
• There are two types of camera units for photographing scanning images to microfilm: one for photographing in the Simplex mode, and the other for photographing in the Duplex mode. (See “Scan Batch to File” P. 27) When the camera unit for photographing in the Simplex mode is used, only the front side of originals is photographed. When the camera unit for photographing in the Duplex mode is used, both sides of the originals are photographed to film even if Simplex scanning is instructed in Scanning Utility 5060.
• Even if you have specified a size of paper smaller than the original at Page Size, and you have set up scanning so that part of the original is scanned, the whole area of the original is photographed to film.
• When function sheets or patch code sheets are used, you can set up scanning in the Scanning Utility 5060 settings so that sheets are not saved as images. However, be sure to perform this in the Backup mode. (See “Using Patch Codes/Function Sheets” P. 47)

Scanning a Document
About Separators
When scanned images are separated into separate files for each document stack, patch code sheets are detected or press the New File button on the operation panel to send the separator signal to the computer from the scanner.
• When “Auto New File” is set in Scanning Utility 5060, the New File key on the scanner’s operation panel lights each time that scanning is discontinued, and the separator signal is sent to the computer. (See “Separation” P. 65)
• n Scanning Utility 5060, the folder or file name to save images to is changed and the file is separated by the separator signal. (See “Saving Multiple Page Originals” P. 37)
• When “2LevelBlip” is enabled in Scanning Utility 5060, the microfilm is marked with a “file mark” by the separator signal and images are separated independently of “page marks.” (See “Separation” P. 65)

Scanning a Document
[Black and White]
This setting scans the image completely in black and white.
[Black and White ED]
This setting scans the image completely in black and white. Halftone gray areas are simulated and reproduced using error diffusion.
[Grayscale - 4 (16, 256) Level]
Reads scanned images as grayscale data. Use this item when grayscale data is required, for example, when scanned images must be image-processed on the computer.
Resolution:
Set the resolution (dots per inch: dpi) when originals are scanned. You can select from five resolutions: 200, 200 (high-speed), 240, 300 and 300 (high­speed).
MEMO
In high-speed scanner modes such as 200 (high-speed) and 300 (high-speed), the resolution in the sub-scanning (vertical) direction during scanning is halved to speed up scanning. In the 200 (high-speed) mode, images scanned in at 200 × 100 dpi (horizontal × vertical) are output at 200 × 200 dpi, and in the 300 (high-speed) mode, images scanned in at 300 × 150 dpi (horizontal × vertical) are output at 300 × 300 dpi. In either of these modes, scan speed is increased, but image quality is slightly impaired.

MEMO
If you scan an original larger than the specified size, its periphery will not be
scanned. Also, if you scan an original smaller than the specified size, its periphery will appear black.
When “automatic size detection” is selected, the width of the original is set
by the width of the document guides. (default) The width of the original in automatic size detection can be matched to the width of the original to be actually scanned by the scanner’s user mode setting. (See DR-5060F Instructions “Setting in the User Mode” P.56)
Brightness:
The brightness of the scanned image is set automatically or manually . When “automatic” is set, the brightness setting is automatic. When “manual” is set, set the brightness within the range 1 to 255. A larger value increases the brightness, while a smaller value decreases the brightness.
MEMO
The automatic brightness setting is enabled when Mode is set to [Black and
White]. If the automatic brightness is set when mode is set to other than [Black and White], the brightness setting is at the central value.
The brightness setting is reflected on the scanner’ s operation panel when
the Scanner Settings dialog box is closed. Also, when the setting is changed on the operation panel, it is reflected in the settings in the Scanner Settings dialog box.
Contrast:
Automatically or manually sets the contrast. When you manually set the contrast, you can set within the range 1 to 13. A larger value increases the contrast, while a smaller value decreases the contrast.

Scanning Originals and Saving Scanned Images
There are three ways of scanning originals and saving the scanned image as an image file: (See “Scan Page” P. 25), (See “Scan Batch to File P. 27) and (See “Film Address File Name” P. 31). The operation procedure for each method is different.
MEMO
How to load originals and operation procedures vary according to the feeding option setting. Before you start scanning, check the feeding option setting. (See “Before Y ou Start Scanning” P. 20)
Scan Page
With “scan page,” you can scan only one page and check the image before you save or print the scanned image. This allows you to save or print scanned images as necessary . For this scanning method, set the feeding option to “Remote.” (See “Feeding Option” P. 64)
Load one page on the document tray.
