1. Important Safety Instructions

To ensure the safe operation of this scanner, be sure to read the safety warnings
and precautions described below.

Installation Location

The performance of this scanner is affected by the environment in which it is
installed. Make sure that the location where the scanner is installed meets the
following environmental requirements.

• Provide adequate space around the scanner for operation and maintenance.

At least 3.9" (100 mm)
when eject tray is empty.

17.7" (450 mm)
when the document
feed tray and
document feed tray
extension are
closed.

29.5" (750 mm)
when the document
feed tray and
document feed tray
extension are
open.

• If scanned documents are ejected to the back of the scanner, provide
adequate space behind the scanner for documents ejected after being
scanned. (See “Document Eject Tray,” on p. 23.)

• Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight. If this is unavoidable, use
curtains to shade the scanner.

• Avoid locations where a considerable amount of dust accumulates.

• Avoid warm or humid locations, such as in the vicinity of a water faucet,
water heater, or humidifier, and avoid locations where the fumes from
ammonia, paint thinner, or other volatile chemicals may be present.

• Avoid locations where ammonia gas is emitted.

• Avoid locations near volatile or flammable materials, such as alcohol or
paint thinner.

• Avoid locations that are subject to vibration.

• Avoid exposing the scanner to rapid changes in temperature. If the room in
which the scanner is installed is cold but rapidly heated, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the scanner. This may result in a noticeable
degradation in scanning quality.

6 Before Using the Scanner

The following conditions are recommended for optimal scanning quality:
Room temperature: 10 °C to 32.5 °C (50 °F to 90.5 °F)
Humidity: 20% to 80% RH

• Avoid installing the scanner near equipment that generates a magnetic field
(e.g. speakers, televisions, or radios).

Power

• Connect only to a power outlet of the rated voltage and power supply
frequency. (either 120 V, 60 Hz or 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz depending on your
region)

• Do not use a power supply that is not rated for the specified voltage. Doing
so might cause fire or electric shock.

• Do not connect other electrical equipment to the same power outlet to which
the scanner is connected. Also, when using an extension cord, make sure that
the extension cord is rated for the current requirements of the scanner.

• The power cord may become damaged if they are often stepped on or if
heavy objects are placed on them. Continued use of a damaged power cord
can lead to an accident, such as a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not use the power cord while it is coiled.

• Do not pull directly on the power cord. When disconnecting the power cord,
grasp the plug and remove it from the outlet.

• Keep the area around the power plug clear of objects so that the power cord
can be disconnected easily in an emergency.

• If you have any questions regarding the power supply, contact your local
authorized Canon dealer or service representative for further information.

Chapter 1

Moving the Scanner

• When moving the scanner, always hold it with both hands to avoid dropping
it. The scanner weighs approximately 23 lb (10.2 kg) alone.

• Make sure to disconnect the interface cable and power cord. If the scanner is
transported with these items plugged in, the plugs and connectors may be
damaged due to physical shock.

Before Using the Scanner 7

Handling

WARNING
Note the following precautions whenever using the scanner.
Failure to do so may result in a fire or electric shock.

• Never use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, aerosol sprays, or any
other highly flammable substance near the scanner.

• Do not cut, damage, or modify the power cord. Do not place
heavy objects on the power cord, and do not pull or excessively
bend the power cord.

• Never connect the power cord when your hands are wet.

• Do not connect the scanner to a multi plug power strip.

• Do not knot or coil the power cord as this may result in a fire or
electric shock. When connecting the power cord, make sure that
the power plug is securely and completely inserted into the
power outlet.

• Do not use power cords other than the power cord provided with
this scanner.

• Never try to take the scanner apart or modify it in any way, as
this is dangerous and may lead to a fire or electric shock.

• Do not use flammable aerosol sprays products near the scanner.

• When cleaning the scanner, turn the power switch OFF and
disconnect the power cord from the power supply.

• Clean the scanner using a slightly dampened cloth which has
been well wrung out. Never use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner,
or any other flammable substances.

• If the scanner makes strange noises, or gives off, smoke, heat,
or strange odors, or the scanner does not function or other
abnormalities occur when you use the machine, immediately
turn the power switch OFF, and disconnect the power plug from
the power outlet. Then, contact your local authorized Canon
dealer or the service representative for further information.

• Do not drop the scanner, or subject it to impact or strong shock.
Should the scanner ever become damaged, immediately turn the
power switch OFF, and disconnect the power plug from the
power outlet. Then, contact your local authorized Canon dealer
or service representative to have the unit serviced.

• Before moving the scanner, be sure to turn the power switch
OFF, and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet.

CAUTION

• Do not install the scanner on a surface that is unstable or tilted,
or in an area subject to excessive vibrations, as this may cause
the scanner to fall, resulting in personal injury or damage to the
scanner.

8 Before Using the Scanner

• Do not block ventilation openings. Doing so could case the
scanner to overheat, creating a risk of fire.

• Never place small metal objects such as staples, paper clips, or
jewelry on the scanner. These items may fall into the scanner,
and cause a fire or electric shock. Should such objects ever fall
inside the scanner, immediately turn the power switch OFF, and
disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. Then, contact
your local authorized Canon dealer or service representative to
have the unit serviced.

• Do not locate the scanner in a humid or dusty location. Doing so
might cause fire or electric shock.

• Do not place objects on top of the scanner. Such objects may tip
or fall over, resulting in personal injury.

• When unplugging the power cord, grasp it firmly by its plug. Do
not pull directly on the power cord, as this may damage or
expose the cord’s internal wiring, resulting in a fire or electric
shock.

• Leave sufficient space around the power plug so that it can be
unplugged easily. If objects are placed around the power plug,
you will be unable to unplug it in an emergency.

• Do not allow water or flammable substances (alcohol, paint
thinner, benzene, etc.) to spill into the scanner, as this may
result in a fire or electric shock.

• Turn OFF the power switch for safety when not using the
scanner for a long period of time, such as overnight. Also, turn
OFF the power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the
power outlet for safety when the machine will not be used for an
extended period of time, such as during consecutive holidays.

• Do 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
becomes caught in the scanner, immediately disconnect the
power cord to stop the scanner.

• Be careful when placing paper in the scanner and when
removing jammed paper. It is possible to cut your hand on the
edge of a sheet of paper.

IMPORTANT

A document must meet the following criteria to be scannable:

• When scanning a multipage document, pages must be grouped together so
that they have the same size, thickness, and weight. Scanning different types
of paper at one time can cause the scanner to jam.

• 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.

20 Using the Scanner

• Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material can make
the rollers dirty, which can then transfer the dirt to subsequent documents.
Always clean the rollers after scanning a document written in pencil.

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

• 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 documents

Curled document Carbon paper

Torn documents Coated paper

• When you scan a batch of NCR documents, make sure that they are not stuck
together.

• Note that glossy documents or business card sometimes cannot be scanned
correctly, or functions such as paper size detection and deskew do not
function properly due to reflected light.

• When scanning business cards, make sure to select the bypass mode and
straight path.

22 Using the Scanner

Document Eject Tray

The scanner has two eject methods; documents can be ejected to the front of
the scanner in a U-turn path, or to the back of the scanner in a straight path.
This is done according to whether document eject tray 2 is opened or closed.
Select the eject method according to what you need to do.

Document Eject Tray 1

Note

• The U-turn path is used to scan documents on paper of normal thickness.
Scanned documents are ejected to the document eject tray.

• The straight path is used to scan documents on thin paper, base paper and
business cards that cannot be scanned through the U-turn path. Scanned
documents are ejected to the back of the scanner.

U-Turn Path

Straight Path

Document Eject Tray 2

Note

The U-turn path cannot be used if document eject tray 2 is open.

Using the Scanner 23

2. Pull the document eject tray extension towards you to open it.

IMPORTANT

Make sure the document eject tray extension is open when using the scanner. If
the document eject tray extension is not opened, ejected documents can fall
from the tray and become jammed in the scanner.

Using the Straight Path

1. Open document eject tray 2.

Note

When using the straight path, the ejected documents are stacked in reverse
order to how they were fed.

IMPORTANT

• Be sure there is enough space for documents that are ejected behind the
scanner when using the straight path. If there is not enough space for ejected
documents, the documents may be damaged or a paper jam may occur.

• Open or close document eject tray 2 before starting to scan documents.
Opening or closing document eject tray 2 while scanning may cause a paper
jam.

24 Using the Scanner

Installing the Document Eject Guide

When scanning a document that is particularly thin or particularly long, it
could droop down over the edge of the document eject tray extension and
become jammed in the scanner. Avoid this problem by attaching the document
eject guide.

1. Open the document eject tray extention toward you.

Chapter 2

2. Attach the document eject guide in the order

➀, ➁

as shown.

3. Press the document eject guide to attach it to document eject tray extention.

little and unhook the document eject guide.

5. Reverse the procedure for attaching the document eject guide to remove it.

26 Using the Scanner

3. Placing Documents

There are two methods for paper separation, called the page separation mode
and bypass mode for feeding documents. Feeding documents continuously
from a stack of documents placed in the feed tray is called the page separation
mode. Feeding documents one sheet at a time by hand or feeding multiple
sheet documents, such as invoices that are attached at one end, is called the
bypass mode. The document feed method can be switched by moving the feed
selection lever.

IMPORTANT

• Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not contain paper
clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These objects may 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. This may result in personal injury. Be extra careful of
neckties and long hair. If anything becomes caught in the scanner,
immediately disconnect the power cord 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.

• When continuously scanning documents on thin paper in page separation
mode, the pages may be wrinkled or folded and cause a paper jam. If this
happens, scan the document in the bypass mode.

Chapter 2

How to Feed with the Page Separation Mode

Move the feed selection lever on the lower left side of the front of the scanner

1.

up ( ).

Document Stoppers

Note

Lifting up the feed selection lever causes the document stoppers to rise.

Using the Scanner 27

2. Straighten the edges of the stack of documents to be scanned.

CAUTION

• Do not place the documents on top of the scanner to align them.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.

• Be careful when placing a document in the scanner. It is
possible to cut your hand on the edge of a sheet of paper.

3. Set the document guides so they are wider than the document to be scanned.

IMPORTANT

When scanning small or short documents, adjust the document guides 2 to the
edges of the documents.

4. Place the documents face up into the feed tray, so that they touch the document

stoppers.

28 Using the Scanner

IMPORTANT

There is a load limit mark ( ) on the document guides. Do not stack
documents higher than this mark (approximately 100 sheets of 20 lb bond
(80 g/m

2

) paper). Doing so may cause a paper jam.

5. Adjust the document guides so they match the width of the document.

Chapter 2

Note

Before starting a scan, make sure that the document is loaded in the scanner
correctly. Scanning a curled document or a creased document can damage the
document.

6. Start scanning from the application.

IMPORTANT

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

• Note that documents that are printed on thin paper may fall out of the
document eject tray.

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

Before using Adobe Acrobat 9.0

There are two methods for scanning a document from the scanner using the
bundled Adobe Acrobat 9.0 software. One method is Presets (Black & White
Document, Grayscale Document, Color Document or Color Image), in which
the scanning parameters are set beforehand, and the other method is Custom
Scan, which allows you to select the parameters used for scanning. The
Custom Scan method also provides the option of either showing or hiding the
scanner’s Native Interface (the machine’s own scanner settings screen) while
scanning.

If you use Adobe Acrobat 9.0 with this machine and scan using the
Custom Scan method, you should display the scanner’s Native Interface
for the following reasons.

• If you make scans without showing the Native Interface, it may
not be possible to scan correctly at the specified Paper Size.

• If you use Presets to scan without showing the Native Interface,
it may not be possible to scan correctly at the specified Paper
Size.

Procedure for Showing the Native Interface in Custom Scan

5. Using Patchcode Sheets

The DR-6030C ISIS driver and CapturePerfect 3.0 both support the automatic
file separation function with patchcode sheets.

Patchcode patterns are printed on patchcode sheets which are used to
automatically separate files. When the scanner recognizes a patchcode sheet
during scanning, the files are automatically separated at the patchcode sheet or
at the image of the next document.

Note

• Access “ISIS/TWAIN Driver Help” for information about using patchcode
sheets.

• The TWAIN driver does not support patchcode sheets.

• Patchcode sheets can be used only when the ISIS compatible application
supports separating files by patchcode patterns.

• Patchcode sheets cannot be used when the MultiStream function (See p. 62.)
is being used.

Chapter 2

Using the Scanner 47

About Patchcode Sheets

Patchcode sheets are data in a portable document format (PDF). There four
types; [PATCH II (A4)], [PATCH II (LTR)], [PATCH T (A4)], [PATCH T
(LTR)] according to the paper size and pattern.

Click on the Windows start button, open [All Programs] - [Canon DR-6030C] ­[PATCH X (XX)]. Print the patchcode sheet to use it.

Note

• To open patchcode sheets you need CapturePerfect 3.0, which is provided
with the scanner, or an application associated with PDF format files.

• Patchcode sheets must be printed in their original size. The scanner may not
recognize them as patchcode sheets if they are enlarged or reduced.

48 Using the Scanner

Patchcode Pattern Function

There are two types of patchcodes and their function changes according to
their pattern.

 PATCH T (FILE A)

When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed
on a patchcode sheet it creates a separate file for the
document that comes after the patchcode sheet. The
image of this sheet can be saved or not depending on
the application’s settings.

 PATCH II (FILE B)

When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed
on a patchcode sheet it creates a separate file starting
from the patchcode sheet. The image of this sheet is
saved regardless of the application’s settings.

How to Use Patchcode Sheets

Print patchcode sheets on a printer. Print the patchcode sheets at their original

1.

size on paper that is the same size as the data.

Note

• Print [PATCH II (A4)] and [PATCH T (A4)] on A4 size paper.

• Print [PATCH II (LTR)] and [PATCH T (LTR)] on letter size paper.

IMPORTANT

Be careful to keep the patchcode sheets clean. In particular, the effective area
for detecting patterns should be kept clean. Also, do not fold them or allow
them to become wrinkled. If this happens, the scanner will not be able to read
them.

2. Insert the patchcode sheet so it is in front of the document that is to be saved to

a separate file before loading the documents on the scanner.

Chapter 2

Insert patchcode sheets in front
of the documents you want to
save to separate files.

3. In the ISIS driver, set the batch separation setting to [Patchcode] and then scan

the documents.

Using the Scanner 49

IMPORTANT

Note the following points when copying a patchcode pattern to create a
different size patchcode sheet.

• When copying a patchcode pattern, the copy should be the same size and
density as the pattern on the original. Extremely dark or light copies may not
be scanned correctly.

• Adjust the patchcode so that it fits into the effective area for detecting
patchcode patterns.

6. Clearing a Paper Jam

When paper jams occur during scanning, use the following procedure to clear
them.

CAUTION
Be careful when removing jammed paper. It is possible to cut your

hand on the edge of a sheet of paper.

1. Remove any documents that have been left in the eject tray.

2. Close the document eject tray.

IMPORTANT

If document ejection is stopped part way, perform this operation with the
document eject tray extention open. Attempting to force the document eject
tray extension closed can crease the document.

3. Hold the Upper unit as shown in the diagram, and open it to the point where

you can remove the jammed document.

Chapter 2

CAUTION
The pickup roller is located in the middle of the upper unit. Do not

hold the protrusion on the upper unit when you open it. Doing so
may deform the pickup roller or cause a feeding error.

Using the Scanner 51

4. Remove the jammed document.

 When the jam occurred in the feed section

 When the jam occurred in the eject section

IMPORTANT

Be sure to pull the document out carefully, without applying too much force.
Should the document tear, be sure to remove any part remaining in the scanner.

5. Close the upper unit slowly. Be sure that the upper unit is completely closed by

pushing on both edges with both hands until you hear a click.

IMPORTANT

Do not force the upper unit to close. Doing so may damage the scanner.

52 Using the Scanner

Note

• After removing the jammed paper, check to see if the last page was scanned,
and then continue scanning.

• If a paper jam happens when “Rapid recover system” is enabled in the ISIS/
TWAIN driver settings, the image of the document is not saved and scanning
stops. This allows you to continue scanning from the document that caused
the paper jam after the paper jam is fixed. (See “[Rapid Recovery System]
Check Box,” on p. 81.)

Standby Mode Settings ......................................................P. 61

MultiStream Function .........................................................P. 62

Double Feed Detection Function

The scanner is equipped with a [Double Feed Detection] function that
automatically detects when two or more documents are fed at the same time
(double feed) while doing continuous scanning.

There are two methods for multiple feed detection as shown below, the
detection method is selected by the “ISIS/TWAIN driver”.

Detecting Double Feed by Document Length

This detection method is effective when scanning a document on pages that
are all the same size. The length of the first page scanned is used as a
standard against which the rest of the pages are compared. If any page is

1.96" (50 mm) longer or shorter than the first page it is considered a double
feed and scanning stops.

Detecting Double Feed with Ultrasonic Waves

This detection method is effective when scanning a document on pages that
are different sizes. Ultrasonic waves are used to detect pages that are fed at
the same time as well as the space between pages. Scanning stops if they are
detected.

Note

• Ultrasonic double feed detection works when the documents overlap by

1.96" (50 mm) or more.

• If the documents are stuck together with static electricity, the ultrasonic
double feed detection will not correctly detect them as a double feed.

54 Using the Scanner

Skew Detection Function

If long documents are skewed, then they may rub against the feed slot or the
edges of the feed path and be damaged. The scanner is equipped with a skew
detector function that detects when a skewed document hits the edge of the
feed slot. When a skewed document is detected, an error message is displayed
and scanning stops.

Note

Small documents are not detected by the sensor even if they are skewed.

Long Document Mode

Normally the scanner can scan documents up to 17.01" (432 mm) in length,
however if you change the settings to the Long Document mode it is possible
to scan documents up to a maximum of 118.1" (3,000 mm) in length. To use
the Long Document mode, change the scanner’s settings to the Long
Document mode in scanner properties. Set the paper size in the “ISIS/TWAIN
driver” to [Automatic Detection] to allow the scanner to detect documents up
to 118.1" (3,000 mm) long and to scan them. (See “Page Size,” on p. 68.)

IMPORTANT

Note the following points when using the Long Document mode.

• Documents may be scanned more slowly when the scanner is scanning with
automatic size detection in Long Document mode.

• When scanning in the Long Document mode, if the document is placed on
the scanner in a skewed position, it may rub against both sides of the feed
path and be damaged. Be careful to place the document so it is not skewed.

• When using the Long Document mode, the paper jam detection may react
slowly resulting in damage to the document. Be careful to avoid paper jams.

• Be sure to feed paper with the bypass mode when scanning in the Long
Document mode.

MultiStream Function

If the application that you are using supports the MultiStream function, then it
is possible to scan a document one time and simultaneously output two types
of images (Primary image and Secondary image).

CapturePerfect 3.0, provided with the scanner, supports the MultiStream
function so the following settings are possible.

• You can set the Primary or Secondary image and Front or Back for the Image
Type (mode), Resolution or Drop Out Color.

• You can change the File Type for the Primary image and the Secondary
image. However, you cannot change Front or Back with File Type.

☞ If the background is non-uniform, such a pattern, the background remains

visible in the image, and text may be hard to read.

[High-Speed Text Enhancement]

This mode optimizes processing speed by performing background processing
within the scanner, and is good for scanning documents with light background
and dark text.
☞ If the text and background in a document have nearly the same density, the

text may be hard to read.

☞ Areas with uniform background may appear as non-uniform white in the

image.

☞ Because background processing is performed within the scanner, scanned

images are more susceptible to lines appearing due to dirt on the scanning
table glass. In cases where this may be a problem, try scanning again after
cleaning the scanner glass, or select one of the [Advanced Text

Chapter 3

ISIS driver TWAIN driver

[Reverse side]

Scanning occurs as follows depending on the scanning side settings.
☞ When this check box is selected and the scanning side is set to [Simplex],

only the back of each page is scanned.

☞ When this check box is selected and the scanning side is set to [Duplex] or

[Skip Blank Page], the back of each page is scanned first, followed by the
front.

[Rapid Recovery System] Check Box

If a paper jam causes paper transport to stop while scanning, scanning stops
without sending an error notification to the application program. After fixing
the cause of the stoppage, you can continue scanning with the standard
operations.

Software Setup 81

[JPEG Transfer] Check Box

When this check box is selected, scanned image data is always compressed to
JPEG format within the scanner for output to the computer.
Scanned image data is output from the scanner as an uncompressed or JPEG
transfer, depending on instructions from the ISIS/TWAIN driver or application
program.
☞ Uncompressed transfers output raw scanned image data, so when the image

data is large, significant time may be required for transfer from the scanner
to the computer.

☞ JPEG transfer is good for color and grayscale images, as scanned image

data is JPEG-compressed within the scanner before output.
This reduces the size of the image data for output, so transfer time from the
scanner to the computer is shortened.

When JPEG Transfer is selected, image data from the scanner is always output
as JPEG-compressed data.
☞ When the uncompressed saving format is selected in the application

program, JPEG-compressed image data is reconverted to uncompressed
data before transfer to the application. Image quality is degraded slightly as
a result.

☞ This check box setting is ignored if the application program requests a

JPEG transfer.

☞ Of course application program requests depend on the specifications of the

particular program.

Double Feed Detection

This function stops document transport when double feeding of document
pages is detected, and provides selection of the detection method to suit the
documents to be scanned. (See “Double Feed Detection Function,” on p. 54.)

[Detect by Length]

This method of double feed detection is good for batch scanning of same-size
documents: the length of the first document page fed is taken as a standard, and
when a subsequent document is detected to be 1.96" (50 mm) longer (or
shorter) than the standard, a double feed is judged to have occurred, and
document transport is stopped.

[Detect by Ultrasonic]

This method of double feed detection is good for batch scanning of different­size documents: the overlapping of documents transported in a batch is
detected ultrasonically, and if the detected overlap is 1.96" (50 mm) or more, a
double feed is judged to have occurred and document transport is stopped.

☞ Both detection methods can be used at the same time.
☞ If the documents overlap by less than 1.96" (50 mm), or if the documents

cling (such as from static electricity,) ultrasonic detection of double feeds
may be unreliable.

82 Software Setup

Feeding Option

Here you can select the feeding method for document scanning.

[Standard Feeding]

This feeding method is good for scanning small batches of documents that are
loaded one batch at a time: scanning stops when the loaded documents have
been scanned.

[Panel Feeding]

This feeding method is good for scanning batches of documents of different
sizes: after loading the documents, press the Job button (assigned as a Start
button on the scanner) to start scanning, and press the assigned Stop button to
stop scanning.
☞ When scanning documents with different-size pages, after loading the

documents, you can adjust the document guide position.

[Automatic Feeding]

This feeding method is good for scanning batches of same-size documents:
scanning starts when the scanner detects loaded documents, and stops when
you press the Stop button.
☞ When [Automatic Feeding] is selected, the [Setting] button is enabled to

allow setting the delay time from when a loaded document is detected until
scanning starts. (See “Scanning Multiple Documents,” on p. 94.)

Chapter 3

☞ When the feed selection lever on the scanner is in the down position ( ),

the feeding option is set to bypass mode and cannot be changed. (See “How
to Feed with the Bypass Mode,” on p. 30.)

2. Practical Examples

This section provides examples of settings for the DR-6030C ISIS/TWAIN driver.
Refer to these examples when making ISIS/TWAIN driver settings. For
descriptions of particular setting items, see “ISIS/TWAIN Driver Properties
Dialog Box,” on p. 64.

Scanning Both Sides of Pages

• To scanning both sides of pages

Select [Duplex] for the Scanning Side setting on the [Basic] tab sheet. (See
“Scanning Side,” on p. 69.)

• To avoid scanning blank pages, such as pages at the back of a
document

Select [Skip blank page] for the Scanning Side setting on the [Basic] tab sheet.
Duplex scanning is performed, and pages images detected as blank are not
saved. (See “Scanning Side,” on p. 69.)

• If blank pages are not skipped, even when [Skip blank page] is
selected

Increase the [Content density] in the [Blank Skip Setting] dialog box. If the
[Content density] is set too low for documents with a light background, they
may not be detected as blank pages, and not be skipped. (See “Scanning Side,”
on p. 69.)

• If documents with text are skipped as blank pages

Decrease the [Content density] in the [Blank Skip Setting] dialog box. If the
[Content density] is set too high for documents with little text, they may be
incorrectly detected as blank pages, and be skipped. (See “Scanning Side,” on
p. 69.)

92 Software Setup

Scanning Non-Standard-Size Documents

• To scan non-standard-size documents

If non-standard-size documents are scanned with a standard size selected for
the Page Size setting on the [Basic] tab sheet, black regions may appear around
the scanned document image. To scan non-standard-size documents, select
[Auto-detection] as the [Page Size]. Page size is then detected automatically.
(See “Page Size,” on p. 68.)

• To scan long-page documents

Set the scanning mode to Long Document mode, and select [Auto-detection]
as the [Page Size] in the Properties dialog box. Document pages may be up to
three meter long.
(See “Long Document Mode,” on p. 55, and “Page Size,” on p. 68)

• To register a non-standard page size

A non-standard page size not already registered as a page size selection can be
saved as a custom page size by selecting the [Custom] button in the Scan Area
dialog box. (See “User Preferences,” on p. 66.)

Adjusting the Scan Area

• To scan only part of the document page

You can specify any area on the page in the Scan Area dialog box. However,
scan area settings are ignored when [Auto-detection] is selected as the [Page
Size]. (See “[Scan Area] Dialog Box,” on p. 73.)

Software Setup 93

With the TWAIN driver, load a document in the scanner and click the
[Preview] button to scan one page. The scanned image is displayed in the Area
window so that you can adjust the scan area while viewing the preview image.
(See “Preview Button (TWAIN driver only),” on p. 74.)

With CapturePerfect, the last scanned image appears in the Area window. After
executing [Scan Single Page], open the Scan Area dialog box to view the
scanned image in the Area window, where you can set the scan area while
viewing the preview image.

• To avoid losing the edges of an image due to shifting of the
document page, or to remove black frames from around images

Adjust the scan area using the [Margin] slider in the Scan Area dialog box.

If the edges are missing from the image, move the slider to the right to expand
the scanning area. Alternatively, to eliminate the black frame around scanned
images, move the slider to the left to reduce the scanning area.

Scanning Multiple Documents

• To scan a document that cannot be loaded all at once as multiple
separate batches

Set the [Feeding Option] on the [Basic] tab sheet to either [Automatic Feeding]
or [Panel Feeding]. (See “Feeding Option,” on p. 83.)
When [Automatic Feeding] is selected as the [Feeding Option], the scanner
detects documents and starts scanning as they are loaded, so continuous
scanning is available just by loading the document batches repeatedly.
