Manual Feed Mode Setting

In this mode, the scanner waits for some predetermined time before issuing a “Paper Empty” message
after all documents are read. This predetermined time (time-out limit) is specified in the Setup mode.

Therefore, you can set the next documents on the ADF paper chute without interrupting the reading
operation.

The procedures for setting the manual feed mode are as follows:

Document Quality

This section describes the types and weights of paper that the scanner can read and precautions in
preparing documents to ensure maximal scanner functioning.

■ Document type

The recommended paper type for documents is as follows:

• Woodfree paper

• Wood containing paper

When using documents of a paper type other than the above, perform a test-scanning with a few sheets of
the same type before executing the actual task in order to check whether or not the documents can be
scanned.

Any paper can be used on the Document bed. However, the ground color specification must satisfy the
specification described in the Grounding Color Area section.

■ Paper weight

The paper weight should fall within the following ranges:

2

• 52 to 127 g/m

(13.9 to 34 lb), 127g/m2 (34lb) for A8

■ Precautions

A preliminary document feed test may be necessary to avoid unexpected errors. If document slip or jam in
the ADF (JAM error) or Multi feed occurs frequently, scan the documents manually using the Document
bed.

The following documents may be difficult to be scanned successfully with the ADF:

• Documents of non-uniform thickness (e.g. envelopes)

• Wrinkled or curled documents (Refer to NOTICE in this section)

• Folded or torn documents

• Tracing paper

• Coated paper

• Carbon paper

• Carbonless paper

• Photosensitive paper

• Perforated or punched documents

● 5 - 3

• Documents that are not square or rectangular

• Very thin documents

Do not use the following type documents for scanning with the ADF.

• Paper-clipped or stapled documents

• Documents on which the ink is still wet

• Documents smaller than A8 (portrait) size

• Documents wider than A3 or 11 in. x 17 in. size

• Documents other than paper such as fabric, metal foil, or transparencies

NOTICE

• When scanning semi-transparent documents, set the density to light to avoid a bleed through.

• Carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may harm the Pad or rollers (e.g. Pick roller).

Pay attention to the following:

Cleaning : If mispicks occur frequently, clean the Pad and Pick roller. For details on

cleaning method, refer to the “Cleaning and Maintenance” manual.

Replacing parts :The service life of the Pad and Pick roller may be shortened compared to the

case of scanning wood containing paper documents.

• When using the ADF, the leading edge of all document sheets must be evenly aligned. Make sure that

curling at the leadin edge is withtin the following toleranaces:

More than 30mm Feed direction

Less than
3mm

Less than
5mm

Read surfaceTop of the paper

• To prevent rollers from becoming dirty, avoid scanning documents containing large areas written or

filled in pencil. If scanning of such documents is inevitable, clean the rollers more frequently.

2 Paper length accuracy: 1% or less

3 Any black print at the center of the leading edge of the paper is not allowed. (10 mm x 10 mm)

4 No binding holes are allowed within 35 mm of the middle (halfway point) along the center of the paper.

5 Printing duty: 12 % or less

6 The deviation of the amount of transparent light on the base color area should be less than 10 %.

The counter is automatically reset at the start of reading. The
counter is used for checking the number of the sheets scanned
in one batch.

When the
button is pressed

This counter increments each time a document is scanned. It is
not initialized until the power is turned off. The counter can be
used, for example, for checking the number of sheets that have
been scanned in one day.

Abrasion counter The abrasion counter counts the accumulated number of scanned sheets. This

counter increments every 10 sheets. It is useful to check the cleaning cycle or the
parts replacement cycle. How to reset it is described in Chapter7 "SETUP MODE".

Life Counter Keeps a cumulative count of the number of scans made after shipping.

This counter increments by 1 after every 10 scans and may be used to estimate of
the device's remaining scan life.

2. At Screen 1.

Press either the or button to set the Multi feed detection according to the paper thickness
(transmitted light).

The paper thickness is checked using the difference between two consecutive sheets of paper fed
from the ADF. On this screen, select whether or not to check for Multi feeding, and select the error
processing.

Each time either of these buttons is pressed, the location of the blinking moves. When the button is
pressed, the blinking moves from (1) to (3). When the button is pressed, the blinking moves in the
opposite direction. However, if the setting by the host computer is valid, the location of the blinking
does not move when either button is pressed.

(1) “No” is blinking: Paper thickness is not checked.

(2) “Yes” and “1” are blinking: Paper thickness is checked. However, a detected Multi feed error is

displayed on the screen only; processing is continued.

(3) “Yes” and “2: Stop” are blinking: Paper thickness is checked. When the Multi feed error is

detected, the scan processing is stopped. The error is then reported to the host.

If you want to disable the Multi feed, select “No” then press . Press to return.

NOTICES

1. Multi Feed detection might have better results when both the paper thickness and the paper length

are used.

2. When the document in ADF is not the Multi fed document, the previous document might be Multi fed,

in case the scanner stops feeding by using the Multi feed detection.

3. Depending on the type of printing on the document, a Multi feed may not be detected by the paper

thickness.

NOTICE

fi-4340C has built-in Image Processing. The following image processing is supported both by the fi­4340C and the IPC-4D(IMAGE PROCESSING CIRCUIT BOARD). As a default, the scanner built-in
functions are enabled. By setting "On" using the Operator Panel, the IPC-4D image processing
overrides the built-in functions.

The IPC-4D(IMGGE PROCESSING CIRCUIT BOARD) support of those functions is intended for
compatibility with the IPC-3/3D (except for image quality). The matrix size used in the IPC-4D(IMAGE
PROCESSING CIRCUIT BOARD) is larger than the one in the fi-4340C. The fi-4340C Built-in
