INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the fi-5950 Image Scanner. The fi-5950 is an image scanner designed to scan various documents in large quantities. The fi-5950 has the following features.
Improvement of color scanning speed (105 sheets or 210 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 105 sheets/210 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".
i
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.

Check the following items once a month:
The power cable is firmly inserted into the AC outlet.
The power cable is not emitting abnormal heat, or the power cable is not rusted or bent.
Dust is not accumulated on the power cable. If so, wipe off any dust with a soft, dry
cloth.
The power cable does not have any cracks or scratches.
If any abnormality is detected, contact your FUJITSU scanner dealer or an authorized FUJITSU scanner service provider.
Make sure to ground to avoid electric shock. Be sure to ground before plugging into the AC outlet. Unplug from the outlet before removing the ground connection.
The following describes important cautions described in this manual.
When installing the scanner on a table, make sure that the table is flat and level. Place the scanner so that none of its parts extend beyond the edge of the table, otherwise it may fall or collapse and cause injuries.
Install the scanner away from strong magnetic fields and other sources of electronic noise. Protect the scanner against any static electricity and choose a static-free place to install the scanner.
Static electricity can cause the scanner to malfunction.
xiii
If there is an electrical storm, disconnect the power cable from the AC outlet. Lightening can travel through wires and water pipes and damage the scanner, which may damage your property.
Do not supply the power from the AC outlet where the devices requiring much power such as copying machines or paper shredders are connected.
Do not block the ventilation ports. Blocking the ventilation ports generates heat inside of the scanner, which may result in a fire or scanner failure.
Do not use the scanner immediately after moving it from a cold place into a warm room. Condensation may occur, which might lead to scanning errors. Let the scanner dry for one or two hours before you use it.
xiv
When handling documents, be careful not to cut your fingers with them.
When carrying the scanner outside while it is raining or snowing, pay special attention so the scanner does not get wet.
If the scanner gets wet, wipe it or wait until it dries.
When transporting the scanner, never carry it alone. The scanner is heavy.
