fi-5900C Image Scanner

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the fi-5900C Image Scanner. The fi-5900C is an image scanner designed to scan various documents in large quantities. The fi-5900C has the following features.

 Improvement of color scanning speed (100 sheets or 200 pages

per minute) with high resolution (300dpi)

By the newly-developed high speed CCD and high speed image processing circuit, scanning speed (A4 color, 300dpi) of 100 sheets/200 pages per minute) is improved. Now you can scan a large amount of documents which is about 100,000 sheets a day!

 Efficient pre-processing and post-processing!

This scanner is able to scan mixed documents stables of papers of different color, density, size and thickness. This makes the scanning process even simpler and economic, since you no not have to sort out the documents before scanning any more!

Furthermore, this scanner is equipped with an "Elevator" Stacker, moving automatically into the appropriate height, according to the amount of loaded documents. This will make the documents be easily and elegantly handled and also increases your scanning efficiency!

 Prevention of data loss because of improved multi feed detection

This scanner is equipped with ultrasonic multi feed detection sensors, which detect reliably the feeding of 2 or more documents together into the scanner. Those multi feed can also be detected surely, when scanning documents of different thickness, size, color or density. This will help you to increase your efficiency, since the data loss caused by multi feed is detected immediately. This gives you the opportunity to correct the scanning without too much troubles and loss of time.

 High image processing function

The automatic detection function of this scanner is able to detect if the loaded documents are color or monochrome and according to the detection the appropriate settings will be automatically chosen for the image creation. Since the scanner does this automatically, you do not have to set the image settings each time before scanning. Furthermore, The Kofax VRS image processing board is installed as standard equipment for this scanner. This VRS board which has a good reputation for image processing on a high level, enables you to create images of high quality and provides advanced functions like the "Automatic direction correction" and "Background equalization function".

 Pre- and Post imprinter option can be installed

In today's document business, imprinters provide a vital tool for archiving, controlling and verification processes. For this scanner, you can select two optional types of imprinters, depending on your needs. The Pre-Imprinter Option prints information on the front side of the documents prior to the scanning. When using Pre-imprinter, the printed information will also be stored on the generated image. The Post-Imprinter on the other hand, will print after the scanning on the back sides of your documents. So only the originals, and not the images, will contain the imprint.

3.4 Saving Scanned Images in PDF Format

To save scanned images in PDF format, Adobe Acrobat must be installed on your PC. Adobe Acrobat can be installed from the provided Adobe Acrobat CD-ROM.

There are two ways to save scanned images in PDF format.

(1) Using ScandAll 21(page 77)

This method is recommended when the image is scanned in color or grayscale mode. The benefits are:

Reduced PDF file size Easy creation with no special operations

(2) Using Adobe Acrobat (page 79)

This method is recommended for faster creation of PDF files and for black and white scanning. The benefits are:

Quick Creation of PDF file with original scan resolution unchanged The file size can be adjusted by changing the PDF compression rate

ATTENTION

Notes for using Adobe Acrobat

• Acrobat's default settings overrides the previous settings for “Resolution”, “Scan Type” and “Image Mode”.

• The following functions cannot be used:

- “256 Color” or “8 Color”

- “Rotation Degree” selection when “End of Page Detection” is selected

- Long Page Scanning

• When scanning a paper document and converting the image to PDF using Acrobat, unexpected images may be output when:

1. Setting “Edge Shadow Removal” in Acrobat, and setting “Digital Endorser” or “Black Background” options in the TWAIN driver at the same time. Letter strings embedded in the image or the background may be missed. Solution 1: Set “Edge shadow removal” to “OFF” or set any option other than “Adaptive” for “Color/Grayscale” and/or “Monochrome” under “Compression” by selecting [File] - [Create PDF] - [From Scanner…] - [Image Settings…] in Acrobat. Solution 2: Adjust the scanning density in the TWAIN driver.

2. Setting “Adaptive” for “Color/Grayscale” and/or “Monochrome” under “Compression” in Acrobat and scanning in a resolution lower than the resolution recommended for Acrobat. Solution: Set OPTION to something other than “Adaptive” under “Compression.”

3. Scanning a document longer than the double letter (11x17) or A3 size, when setting “Overscan” in the TWAIN driver, the scan may fail. Solution: When scanning a double letter (11x17) or A3 size of document, do not set “Overscan” in TWAIN driver.

As for detailed usage and information of Acrobat, refer to “Create a PDF file from a scanned document” in Acrobat Help.
