ATTENTION
• To prevent the rollers from getting dirty and to prevent faulty document feed,
avoid scanning documents filled in with pencil. If scanning of such documents
is necessary, clean the rollers as frequently as possible.
• Carbonless paper can sometimes contain chemical substances that might
damage the Pad ASSY or rollers (e.g. Pick roller). Pay attention to the following points when scanning carbonless documents:
• Clean the Pad ASSY or rollers as frequently as possible.
• The service life of the scanner is shortened more compared with when
wood-free paper is used.
ATTENTION
To scan documents that are not standard sizes (such as Legal, A4, Letter, B5,
A5, B6, A6, or Business card) select Custom and specify the document size
before scanning. Refer to “3.5 Changing Scan Settings” “[Paper Size] tab”
(page 56) for the procedure on how to specify the document size in Custom.

3 "Custom"
A file is created combining the text string entered at "Header:" and the number
having the number of digits specified at "Counter".
(An example of a file name is displayed at the top of the screen.)
About "Counter:"
• When the same file as the name specified at "Header:" does not exist in the
folder for saving the scanned image set on the [Save] tab, the counter
becomes 1 (001 in the case of three digits), and the counter is incremented by
one each time that a new file is saved from then on.
• When there is a file having the same header in the save destination folder, the
counter becomes the smallest unused number.
Example) When files Scan01.pdf, Scan03.pdf, Scan04.pdf exist in the folder,
and the scanned image is saved to a file having the same header from then
on, the counter becomes Scan02.pdf, Scan05.pdf, Scan06.pdf, Scan07.pdf
and so forth.
• When the specified number of digits is exceeded (for example, when saving
the 100 th file when two digits is specified.), the number of digits is incremented by one.

Select this when you want to scan documents quickly.
• Better (Faster)
Select this when you want to scan documents at higher quality.

■ Color mode:
HINT
Specify whether to scan documents in color or in black-and-white.
Select one of the following modes:
• Auto (Automaticaly recognize each document color)
ScanSnap! automatically recognizes whether the document to scan is color or
black-and-white and switches the scan mode.
• Color
Scans the document in the color mode.
This setting is ideal for scanning color documents.
• B&W
Scans the document in the B&W mode.
This setting is ideal for scanning black-and-white documents containing mostly
text. File sizes can also be kept smaller at the B&W setting compared with the
color mode.
Normally, set this setting item to "Auto".
At this setting, there is no need to change the color mode each time you scan a
document.
■ [Option...] button
This item is for making other scanning related settings.
Clicking the [Option...] button displays the following screen.
■ Brightness
Sets the density when scanning black-and-white images.
Moving the slider control to the left results in a lighter scanned image, while moving
the slider control to the right results in a darker scanned image.

3.5 Changing Scan Settings
■ Allow automatic noise reduction
Mark the checkbox as follows depending on the type of document you are scanning.
• Mark this checkbox when scanning documents containing printed or handwritten
text.
• Unmark this checkbox when scanning documents containing photographs.
* This setting item becomes available when "Color" is currently selected at
"Color mode:" or when "Auto" is selected at "Color mode:" and color documents are automatically recognized.
■ Allow automatic blank page removal
This setting automatically detects blank pages in the document stack, and automatically
removes them from the output scanned images.
For example, this feature allows only the rear side (i.e. blank pages) of one-sided documents to be removed from the output scanned images if two-sided scanning is performed on a stack of documents containing both two-sided and one-sided documents.
* No scanned images are output if all of the sheets in the document stack are rec-

BASIC SCANNER OPERATIONS
When "Automatic detection" is specified, the size of the document is automatically detected by the scanner. "Automatic detection" defines "Paper size" as
the length of the first page of the document, and applies this size to all the other
pages. So, there is no need to specify "Paper size" again to match the size of
the loaded document, which makes ScanSnap! easier to use.
ScanSnap! fi-4110EOX2 Operator's Guide 39
ATTENTION
When “Automatic detection” is selected, documents that are not standard sizes
are scanned as if they were the standard size (Letter, Legal, A4, B5, A5, B6,
A6, or Business card) that is closest to their length. Because of this, the margins may be scanned and scanning may be interrupted. To scan these kinds of
documents that are not standard sizes, select "Custom" in "Paper size:" and
then specify the document size in the dialog box that appears when you click
the [Custom...] button.
■ [Custom...] button
Specify the size of the document, that you want to scan, in the dialog box. It is possible
to specify sizes in a range from a width of 55 to 216 mm (2.17 in. to 8.5 in.) and a
