Two Eject Paths for Scanning a Variety of Documents

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

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 the supplied software, 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, and 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.

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.

19

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.

Skew Detection Function

The scanner automatically stops operation when documents are fed at an excessive slant to prevent damage to documents.

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

Length: 54 mm to 356 mm (2.12" 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

Straight path: 27 to 255 g/m2 (7 to 68 lb bond) 0.04 mm to 0.3 mm (0.00157" to 0.0118")

U-turn path: 27 to 128 g/m2 (7 to 34 lb bond) 0.04 mm to 0.15 mm (0.00157" to 0.0075")

Loading capacity

A4 size or smaller: 50 sheets Larger than A4 size: 40 sheets

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.

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.

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

It is recommended that thin documents be fed one page 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.
