straight path to scan cards and other thick documents.
z High Image Quality
The 600 dpi optical resolution sensor incorporated in the scanner
enables documents to be scanned with high image quality.
z USB 2.0 Interface
The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.

• Single-sided or double-sided scanning (with Skip Blank Page
function)
• Continuous or single sheet feed
z Card Scan
You can scan business or ID cards.
z 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.
z Auto Color Detection
The scanner detects whether the scanned document is in color,
grayscale, or black and white (binary), and saves the image
accordingly.
z Full 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.
z 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.
z Folio Scan
You can scan folded documents. The scanner will scan both sides
and combine the scanned images into a single image.
z Deskew
The scanner straightens scanned images when it detects that the
document was placed askew.
z 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.
z Text 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.
z 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.
z 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.
z 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.
z 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.
z CaptureOnTouch
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.

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.
A document must meet the following criteria to be scannable:
z When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place
the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed
rollers.
z It is recommended that documents exceeding 356 mm (14") in
size are fed one sheet at a time.
z 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.
z 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.
z 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.
z It is recommended that thin documents are fed one sheet at a
time.

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
Placing Documents for Standard Feeding
###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
Standard paper and
business cards
Plastic cards, thick
paper, thin paper,
and bound or
fastened paper
Feed method
(lever position)
Standard feeding (lower) U-turn path (upper) or
Non separation feeding
(upper)
Eject method
(lever position)
straight path (lower)
Straight path (lower)
###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.
1 Open the document feed tray.
2 Pull out the feed support.
26
3 When scanning long documents, pull out the feed extension plates
and eject support.
4 Set the feed selection lever and the eject selection lever.
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
6 Place 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.
z When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to
cut your hands on the edges of the paper.
z Make 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/m
2
) can be loaded at the same time.
z 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.
z 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
gets caught in the scanner, immediately turn OFF the power
switch, and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet
to stop scanning.
z 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.
z 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.
z After you finish scanning, close the document feed tray to
prevent damage to the scanner while it is not being used.
z Although 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
z If 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.
1 Set 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
2 Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document.
3 Place the document in the document feed tray.
z With 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.
z 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.
