1.1 Main Features
This section explains about the main features of this product.
The scanner is equipped with the following features:
Realizes a scanning speed of 130 sheets/260 pages per
minute (under JPEG compression)
With a newly-developed high-speed CCD and a high-speed image
processing circuit, the scanner can achieve a scanning speed of up to
130 sheets/260 pages per minute with A4/Letter color documents. This
allows you to scan up to approximately 60,000 sheets per day.
Mounts a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
The scanner mounts an LCD that displays various operational settings
for scanning, number of pages scanned, and error status. This allows
you to easily check the status of the scanner.
Improved efficiency for pre- and post-scan work
The scanner supports "batch scanning" which allows you to scan
documents with different paper thickness/size/color/brightness at once,
simplifying the process of sorting the documents before scanning. Also,
the new "Elevator Stacker" has been adopted which automatically keeps
the stacker at a certain height. This prevents the scanned documents
from being scattered in the output, which makes the scan operation
more efficient.
Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds
The scanner mounts an ultrasonic multifeed sensor that accurately
detects errors when two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at
once (called "multifeed"). This multifeed detection is reliable even when
scanning a mixed batch of documents with different thickness/size/color/
brightness, avoiding potential work loss.
Intelligent Multifeed function
When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location
on the page, the Intelligent Multifeed function recognizes the location of
the attachment. This allows you to continue scanning instead of
detecting every paper attached to that location as multifeed.
Furthermore, functions such as Paper Protection will save valuable
documents from being damaged.
Various functions to help the operators
“Anti-Dust Coating Glass built-in Paper Path” keeps the surface of the
scan glass clean, reducing the operators’ work load by extending the
cleaning cycles.
“Automatic Stacker” is adopted which stacks the scanned documents
neatly, reducing the operators’ work load by shortening the time to
prepare and sort the documents.
“Automatic Image Quality Checker” checks through the scanned images
and displays images that are in poor condition.
Advanced image processing functions
The scanner’s automatic detection function outputs images in color or
monochrome by document content. You do not have to change the
settings every time you scan. Also, it comes with a Kofax CGA board
which is known for quality image processing. High quality images can be
acquired by using functions such as Automatic Image Rotation which
rotates documents into their correct orientations, as well as other
various image processing functions such as Background Removal.
Front-Side/Back-Side Imprinter Option
Front-Side/Back-Side Imprinters are available as scanner options, which
are often demanded for managing/verifying vouchers and business
forms. You can select Front-Side Imprinter (to print on the front side of
the document) or Back-Side Imprinter (to print on the back side of the
document) for improved usability.
Centralized management of multiple scanners
The bundled "Scanner Central Admin Agent" application allows you to
manage multiple scanners together, for example, to update the scanner
settings and drivers, as well as to monitor the operating status of each
scanner.

1.9 Adjusting the Paper Separation Force
When you experience frequent multifeeds, pick errors or paper
jams, you can fix the problem by adjusting the force that
separates the papers. Keep the default setting for normal use.
Paper separation force can be set in five different levels.
Low High Force Paper type
: Low Low friction, easy
to separate
: Slightly low
: Mid (default)
: Slightly high High friction,
difficult to separate
: High
z Set the paper separation force lower when pick errors or
paper jams occur frequently.
z Set the paper separation force higher if multifeeds occur
frequently when the paper separation force is low.
z Errors such as multifeed, pick error and paper jam may also
be caused by worn-out consumables or contamination in
the feeding mechanism. If these symptoms do not improve
after changing the paper separation force, either replace the
consumables or clean the inside of the scanner.
z Documents may be damaged if the paper separation force
is set too high. In that case, set the paper separation force
lower.

1.13 Centralized Management of Scanners
This section explains about managing a large number of
scanners in a unified manner by providing the following
capabilities.
z Simultaneously update settings for multiple scanners and their
drivers.
Because there is no need to update each scanner one by one, a
significant reduction is achieved in the time required to update a large
number of scanners.
z Monitor scanners to check for any consumable parts that require
replacement, or the occurrence of errors.
The alerts for consumable part replacement and errors are provided
by scanners, which provides an easy way of checking the operating
status of scanners.
To enable the above functions, "Scanner Central Admin" is
required which consists of four applications bundled with this
product:
z Scanner Central Admin Server
Install this application in the main computer that is used for the
centralized management of scanners.
By registering scanners on the Scanner Central Admin Server, you
can build a system to run a unified management for all scanners.
z Scanner Central Admin Console
Install this application in a computer to upload update modules and to
monitor the operating status of the scanners.
The administrators can perform these tasks from the Scanner Central
Admin Console window, where they can also check the alerts for
consumable replacement and errors sent from the scanners.
z Scanner Central Admin Agent
Install this application in a computer connected to a scanner. It allows
scanners to link with the Scanner Central Admin Server.
Linking with the Scanner Central Admin Server will enable you to
apply updates on scanner settings, and the scanner can also send
alerts on consumable replacement and errors.
z SCAModule Creator
Use this application to create update modules to upload onto the
Scanner Central Admin Server.
It is only required for creating update modules.
For more details, refer to the Scanner Central Admin 4.0
User’s Guide.

Precautions
The following types of documents may not be scanned successfully:
z Documents of non-uniform thickness (e.g. envelopes, documents with
photographs attached)
z Wrinkled or curled documents
z Folded or torn documents
z Tracing paper
z Coated paper
z Carbon paper
z Photosensitive paper
z Perforated documents
z Documents that are neither square nor rectangular
z Very thin documents
z Photographs (photographic paper)
z To scan a document that is semi-transparent, increase the
brightness level to avoid bleed-through.
z To prevent the rollers from becoming dirty, avoid scanning
documents that contain large areas filled with pencil lead.
If you have to scan such documents, make sure to perform
cleaning frequently.
A message may appear when you scan a lot of documents
written with pencil. For more details, refer to "8.2 Error
Indications on Operator Panel" (page 145).
z If multifeeds, pick errors, or paper jams occur frequently,
refer to "1.9 Adjusting the Paper Separation Force" (page
26) for troubleshooting.
z All documents must be flat on the leading edge. Make sure
that curls on the leading edge of the documents are kept
within the following range:

Also, do not scan the following types of documents:
z Paper-clipped or stapled documents
z Documents on which the ink is still wet
z Documents smaller than A8 size
z Documents wider than 304.8 mm (12.0 in.)
z Documents other than paper such as fabric, metal foil and OHP film.
z Important documents such as certificates and cash vouchers which
must not be damaged
z Since carbonless papers contain chemical substances
which may harm the rollers (e.g. pick roller), be aware of the
following risks:
Cleaning: If paper jams occur frequently, clean
each roller. For information on how to
clean the rollers, refer to "Chapter 6
Daily Care" (page 121).
Parts replacement: The life of each roller may end sooner
compared to scanning wood containing
papers.
z When scanning wood containing papers, the life of each
roller may end sooner compared to scanning wood-free
papers.
z Rollers may be damaged when a photo/sticky note on the
document contacts the rollers during scanning.
z The surface of the document may be damaged when
scanning gloss papers such as photographs.

Conditions for Multifeed Detection
Multifeed is an error when two or more sheets are fed through
the ADF at once. It is also called a “multifeed” when a different
document length is detected.
Multifeed detection is performed by either checking the
overlapping of documents, length of the documents, or the
combination of both. The following conditions are required for
an accurate detection.
Detection by overlapping
z Load documents of the same thickness onto the hopper.
z Paper weight: 20 to 209.3 g/m
/ 0.025 to 0.25 mm (0.001 to 0.010 in.)
z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) of the vertical lines in the
left, center and right of the document. See Fig.1.
z Do not attach other documents within 35 mm (1.38 in.) of the vertical
lines in the left, center and right of the document. See Fig.1.
Detection by length
z Load documents of the same length onto the hopper.
z Variance in document lengths: 1% or less
z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the vertical center
line of the document. See Fig. 2.
Detection by overlapping and length
z Load documents of the same thickness and the same length onto the
hopper.
z Paper weight: 20 to 209.3 g/m
/ 0.025 to 0.25 mm (0.001 to 0.010 in.)
z Variance in document lengths: 1% or less
z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) of the vertical lines in the
left, center and right of the document. See Fig.1.
z Do not attach other documents within 35 mm (1.38 in.) of the vertical
lines in the left, center and right of the document. See Fig.1.
The above condition applies when the document is set to the
center of the pick roller width.

Restricting the Background Color Area
The scanning area from the leading edge to the first 3 mm
should be in white (ground color of the document).
If [White Level Follower] is enabled, the following area (shaded
in light blue) must be the same as the ground color or the color
to be dropped out.

Scanning a Mixed Batch of Documents
The following restrictions apply when scanning a mixed batch
of documents with different paper thicknesses/friction
coefficients/sizes. Always test scan a few sheets and see if the
documents can be fed through before scanning a mixed batch
of documents.
For information on how to scan mixed batches, refer to
"Scanning Documents of Different Widths" (page 86).
Paper type
Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feeding direction.
Paper weight
When scanning documents with different paper weight in the same
batch, keep the paper weight within the following range:
z A5 or larger, A4 or smaller: 20 to 209.3 g/m
z Smaller than A5, larger than A4: 40.7 to 209.3 g/m
Friction coefficient
We recommend that you use the same type of paper from the same
manufacturer.
When papers of different manufacturers/brands are mixed, it affects the
feeding performance as the difference in the friction coefficient
increases.
The recommended friction coefficients are as follows:
0.35 to 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient)
Document position
Use paper sizes that fit the 64 mm width of the pick rollers in the center.
2
(5.5 to 56.1 lb)
2
(11.0 to 56.1 lb)
Paper size
When a set of wider documents is placed on top of smaller documents
within the same batch, the wider documents on top may hang down and
affect the feeding performance.
Try to meet the following condition:
z When scanning a mixed batch of documents with different
sizes, it is more likely to skew because the hopper side
guides do not function on every sheet. We recommend
scanning with [Automatic Page Size Detection] enabled.
z Multifeed detection by checking the length cannot be used
together with [Automatic Page Size Detection].

Chapter 5 Various Ways to Scan
Feeding Documents Manually
Besides the normal automatic document feeding in which you
load a batch of documents on the hopper and scan them one
by one, you can also use the “Manual Feed mode” where you
manually feed each sheet and perform scanning.
Normally, in automatic feeding, the scanner stops scanning
once all the loaded documents are scanned.
In manual feeding, the scanner waits for the next sheet to be
set within a specified time. It continues scanning if an
additional document is loaded within the specified time, or
stops scanning if no document is loaded.
With this option, you can perform scanning as you check the
documents one by one.
Manual feeding is effective for:
z Scanning as you check the contents of each sheet
z Scanning documents that cause multifeed or paper jam when they
are loaded together
z Continuously scanning documents such as clippings of magazines
and newspapers which cannot be loaded together at once
z Paper Protection is disabled in Manual Feed mode.
z Pause function ([Send to/Pause] button) is disabled
during manual feeding.
There are two modes in manual feeding.
Single Feed mode
Only one sheet is manually fed and scanned.
z Suitable for scanning thick papers, envelopes and folded papers that
are difficult to scan by automatic feeding (In case of folded paper,
make the folding line as the leading edge).
z Reduces the pressure applied on the document when it enters the
ADF (because the pick roller does not touch the document).
z Used to accurately feed and scan one sheet of document.
z No paper separation force is applied regardless of the paper
separation force setting (five levels). Therefore, this mode enables
you to scan documents such as envelopes which cause paper jams in
automatic document feeding.
Continuous Feed mode
Multiple sheets of document are manually fed one at a time and
continuously scanned.
z Documents are scanned one by one even if multiple sheets are
mistakenly fed.
z When you scan more than one sheet, you can check every sheet as
you scan.
z Used to accurately feed and scan multiple sheets of documents.
z The paper separation force setting (five levels) is enabled as with
scanning in automatic document feeding. Adjust the paper separation
force when multifeeds, pick errors or paper jams occur frequently.
