1.1 Main Features
This section explains about the main features of this product.
The scanner is equipped with the following features:
High speed scanning
The following scanning speed is achieved:
z Power cable connection: 1 second per sheet (*1)
z USB bus power cable connection: 2 seconds per sheet (*1)
In addition, the scanner can be ready to scan only in 0.5 second. Thus,
for example, at a reception counter, reception staff can complete
scanning tasks swiftly without keeping customers waiting.
Small footprint for easy installation
The smallest footprint in the class of A6 size scanners allows easy
installation in any restricted spaces such as a reception counter.
Reception staff can perform scanning work on the reception counter
while dealing with customers face-to-face.
USB bus power support
The scanner can be powered through the USB port of a computer, and
therefore can be used easily at a place where the AC power supply is
unavailable.
Automatic correction of skewed images
Automatic page size detection automatically detects and corrects
skewed images. You can place a document anywhere on the document
bed without worrying about the document becoming slightly skewed.

Take note of the following:
z A curled or folded document may create a small gap between
the document and the document bed, causing the scanned
image to be blurred.
z When the document cover is open, light from external sources
such as fluorescent lamps may pass through a document and
affect the brightness of the scanned images. The effect is
stronger for thinner documents. In such cases, close the
document cover before scanning.

ENERGY STAR is an international standard for energy-efficient electronic equipment which was established by the US

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.

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

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