PaperStream IP driver.
This application allows you to check the scanner information
and configure various settings such as the operation of the
scanner.
ATTENTION
Do not start up the Software Operation Panel when the scanner is
scanning or the scanner driver's setup window is displayed.
Do not use the operator panel while the Software Operation Panel is
running.
If you start up the Software Operation Panel with multiple scanners
connected, the window to select a scanner appears.
Select a scanner to set up in the Software Operation Panel.
The Software Operation Panel can be started up with a maximum of
8 scanners connected at the same time. Note that you cannot
connect multiple scanners that are the same as this scanner.
If a large number of scanners is connected, it may take some time to
start up.
1Confirm that the scanner is connected to the computer,
then turn on the scanner.

E
Edge Extract
A function which traces the boundaries between black and white areas, and extracts them as outlines.

Error diffusion
Method of halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image processing which is based on black & white pixel binarization. It sums the
optical density of a pixel and its adjacent pixels, then relocates black pixels in the order of density to minimize the difference
between scanned and output images. By diffusing the errors onto other pixels, the density data of adjacent pixels can be
binarized. This function suppresses moire patterns of dotted halftone images such as newspapers, and reproduces its
grayscale gradation.

F
Filter
A function that applies a type of filter operation process on a scanned image.
Types of filtering are as follows:
Digital Endorser:
Adds alphanumeric character strings on the scanned image data.
Page Edge Filler:
Fills in the margins of the scanned image in a specified color.
Flatbed
An input device of the scanner.
A user places sheets of documents one by one on the document bed (glass section) and scans each sheet.
Also used to scan documents such as books and magazines.
G
Gamma
A unit which indicates the changes in the brightness of an image. It is expressed as a function of the electric input power to
devices (e.g. scanner, display) and the brightness of the image. If the gamma rate is larger than 1, the brightness of an
image increases and vice versa.

Resolution
A measurement that shows the quality (fineness) of an image. Resolution is displayed by the number of pixels within an

to scan images with grayscale gradation. Each pixel is converted into black or white according to the specified value.
TWAIN
TWAIN (Technology Without Any Interesting Name) is an API (Application Program Interface) standard for imaging devices
(e.g. scanners, digital cameras) developed by TWAIN Working Group. In order to use devices that comply with this
