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

Realizes a scanning speed of 40 ppm/80 ipm (*1). Furthermore, you can load up to 80 sheets of documents for continuous scanning which allows you to quickly digitize a large volume of documents.

Function Number Display

The scanner mounts the Function Number Display that displays the error status. It is used to easily check the status of the scanner.

Improved efficiency for pre-scan work

The scanner can perform "batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper weights and sizes at once. This simplifies the process of sorting the documents before scanning.

Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds

The scanner mounts an ultrasonic multifeed sensor that accurately detects "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at once. This multifeed detection is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights and sizes, 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 enables the scanner to recognize the location of the attachment. This allows you to continue scanning instead of pausing the scan by detecting every paper attachment as multifeed. Furthermore, the "paper protection" function will reduce the risk of damaging your valuable documents.

Imprinter option

Imprinter is available as an option, which is often demanded for managing/verifying documents. Having the capability to print on the scanned documents could drastically improve usability. The imprinter can be installed on fi-7140.

Scanning on black background

A black document pad is available as an option, which allows you to perform scanning on a black background when the flatbed is used. It can be used to automatically correct skewed images or accurately detect the size of the scanned document. The black document pad can be used on fi-7240.

Capable of scanning photographs, clippings, and documents larger than A4/Letter size

The Carrier Sheet, which is available as an option, allows you to scan documents that are larger than A4/Letter size, as well as non-standard size documents such as photographs or clippings. You can load multiple Carrier Sheets or mix it with regular documents in the same batch.

Centralized management of multiple scanners

The bundled "Scanner Central Admin Agent" application allows you to manage multiple scanners together. For example, you can update the scanner settings and drivers, as well as monitor the operating status of each scanner. For details, refer to the Scanner Central Admin User's Guide.

*1: When scanning A4 size documents at 300 dpi.

Conditions for Multifeed Detection

Multifeed is an error where 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

 Paper weight: 27 to 413 g/m2 (7.2 to 110 lb)  Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the

document. See "Fig. 1" (page 45).

 Do not attach other documents within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the

center of the document. See "Fig. 1" (page 45).

Detection by Length

 Load documents of the same length in the ADF paper chute (feeder).  Variance in document lengths: 1% or less  Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the

document. See "Fig. 1" (page 45).

Detection by Overlapping and Length

 Load documents of the same length in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

 Paper weight: 27 to 413 g/m  Variance in document lengths: 1% or less  Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the

document. See "Fig. 1" (page 45).

 Do not attach other documents within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the

center of the document. See "Fig. 1" (page 45).

(7.2 to 110 lb)

ATTENTION

 The above condition applies when the document is set to the center

of the pick roller width.

 When you use detection by overlapping, scanning thick documents

such as plastic cards will be falsely detected as multifeed. In that case, to scan documents successfully, use the multifeed window display function of the scanner driver, use the Intelligent Multifeed function, or disable the multifeed detection.

HINT

 Accuracy of multifeed detection may drop with some documents.

Multifeed cannot be detected for the top 30 mm of a document.

 For the shaded area in "Fig. 1" (page 45), you can also specify a

length not to detect multifeeds in the Software Operation Panel. For details, refer to "8.6 Settings Related to Multifeed Detection"

(page 151).

Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning

The following conditions apply when a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights/friction coefficients/ sizes is scanned. Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the mixed batch of documents can be fed. For details, refer to "Documents with Different Widths" (page

56).

Paper Direction

Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.

Paper Weight (Thickness)

The following paper weights can be used:

27 to 413 g/m

Friction Coefficient

It is recommended that the same type of paper from the same manufacturer should be used. When papers of different manufacturers/brands are mixed, it affects the feeding performance as the difference in the friction coefficient increases. The following friction coefficients are recommended:

0.35 to 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient)

Document Position

Use paper sizes that fit the 39 mm width of the pick roller in the center.

(7.2 to 110 lb)

Paper Size

When you scan a mixed batch with different sizes, not feeding the documents straight may cause troubles such as paper jams or part of the image to appear missing. It is recommended that you check the documents thoroughly before

scanning and also check the image if the document was skewed.

ATTENTION

 When a mixed batch with different sizes is scanned, documents are

more likely to skew because the side guides do not contact every sheet.

 For multifeed detection, please use [Check Overlapping].

Do not use [Check Length] nor [Check Overlapping and Length].

Documents That Cannot Be Scanned in a Mixed Batch

The following types of documents cannot be mixed in the same batch:

 Carbonless paper  Bond paper  Perforated documents  Thermal paper  Carbon-backed paper  OHP film  Tracing paper

■Conditions

Paper Type

The following paper type is recommended: Standard office paper

Paper Weight (Thickness)

The following paper weights can be used:

Up to 209 g/m

Up to 104 g/m

Precautions

Take note of the following:  Up to three Carrier Sheets can be loaded at once.

(56 lb)

(28 lb) when folded in half

 Depending on the amount of memory used by running applications,

there may be insufficient memory to scan a double-page spread document with the Carrier Sheet in high resolution. In that case, specify a lower resolution and try scanning again.

 Do not write on, color, stain, or cut the end with a black and white

pattern on the Carrier Sheet. Otherwise, the Carrier Sheet may not be recognized correctly.

 Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam

may occur and damage the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.

 Do not leave your document inside the Carrier Sheet for a long time.

Otherwise, the ink on the document may be transferred onto the Carrier Sheet.

 To avoid deformation, do not use or leave the Carrier Sheet in high

temperature places such as under direct sunlight or near a heating apparatus for a long time.

 Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet.  Do not use a damaged Carrier Sheet because it may damage or

cause the scanner to malfunction.

 To avoid deformation, keep the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without

any weight on it.

 Be careful not to cut your finger on the edge of the Carrier Sheet.  If paper jams occur frequently, feed about 50 sheets of PPC paper

(recycled paper) before scanning with the Carrier Sheet. The PPC paper can either be blank or printed.

 Paper jams may occur when you place several small documents

(such as photos or postcards) in the Carrier Sheet for scanning. It is recommended that you place only one document at a time in the Carrier Sheet.

4.3 Advanced Scanning

Feeding Documents Manually in the ADF

Documents can also be loaded manually one sheet at a time in the ADF. Normally, in automatic feeding, the scanner stops scanning once all the documents loaded in the ADF paper chute (feeder) have been scanned. In manual feeding, the scanner waits for the next document to be loaded within a specified time. Scanning will continue as long as another document is loaded within the set time, and stops if no document is loaded. By using this method, you can perform scanning as you check the documents one by one. Manual feeding is effective in the following cases.

 To scan as you check the contents of each sheet.  To scan documents that cause multifeed or paper jam when loaded

together in the same batch.

 To continue scanning documents such as magazine or newspaper

clippings that cannot be loaded together.

3 Scan the document with the image scanning application.

For details, refer to the image scanning application manual.

After the document is scanned, the rollers inside the ADF keep

rotating, waiting for the next document to be loaded for the time specified in the Software Operation Panel.

4 Load the next document in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

The document is scanned.

5 Repeat step 4 until all documents are scanned.

Scanning will stop if no document is loaded within the set time.

HINT

 Pressing the [Send to] button on the operator panel while the

scanner is waiting for the next document to be loaded will stop the scan immediately.

 When [Manual-feed timeout] is enabled, the scanner will wait

for the set time even if you start scanning with no document in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

 When you use manual feeding frequently, replacement cycle of

the consumables may be shortened.

Ignoring Multifeed for a Set Pattern

If you attempt to scan a document with an attachment such as sticky note, receipt, or photo while multifeed detection is enabled, the scanner may falsely recognize this as a multifeed error and stop the scan. To scan these types of documents, the "Intelligent Multifeed Function" is available. There are two modes in this function. In one mode, you can suppress multifeeds forcibly by using the operator panel on the scanner. In the other mode, you can suppress multifeeds automatically by letting the scanner memorize the location and the length of the attachment.

Intelligent Multifeed Function

The following three modes are available:

Mode Description

Manual mode (Bypass by front panel button)

Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination of length and position)

Introduction

When the ADF is open, it might close accidentally. Be careful not to get your fingers caught.

2 If you open the ADF to remove the document, close it.

For details, refer to "1.4 Opening/Closing the ADF" (page 25).

When the ADF is closed, indication on the function number display of the operator panel changes as follows:

 When a multifeed occurs

"J" and "2" appear alternately.

 When a document is ejected

The function number flashes.

Be careful not to get your fingers caught when closing the ADF.

ATTENTION

Confirm that the ADF is closed properly. Otherwise, the document may not be fed into the ADF.

3 Load the documents back in the ADF paper chute

(feeder).

If a multifeed by difference in length is detected, either press the [Scan/Stop] button or perform a scan from the computer (do not press the [Function] button). If there is an attachment which is likely to be the cause of the multifeed error, then proceed to the next step.

4 Press the [Function] button and confirm that the function

number flashing is faster, and then either press the [Scan/Stop] button or perform a scan from the computer.

ATTENTION

When switching the flashing speed between "slower"  "faster" by pressing the [Function] button, do not hold down the button for five seconds or more. Doing so may erase the memorized overlap pattern and longest overlap length.

 Manual mode (Bypass by front panel button)

Scans the next sheet without multifeed detection, and from the second sheet, multifeeds are detected based on the setting configured in the scanner driver or the Software Operation Panel.

 Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination of length and position)

Memorizes the length and location of the paper attachment that was detected as multifeed, and continues scanning. When a paper attachment of a similar pattern is detected, multifeed detection is automatically suppressed.(*1)(*2)

 Auto mode 2 (Bypass by length)

Memorizes the length of the longest paper attachment that was detected as multifeed, and continues scanning. When a paper attachment of the same length or shorter is detected, multifeed detection is automatically suppressed.(*1)(*2)

*1: Eight overlap patterns can be memorized in this mode.

When it exceeds this limit, the first pattern that was memorized is erased from the memory.

*2: To erase the memorized overlap patterns and the longest

overlap length, hold down the [Function] button for five seconds or more while the function number is flashing. After erasing is completed, the function number display shows "□". This allows you to erase multifeed patterns and the longest overlap length that were not supposed to be memorized. Be careful with this operation because all memorized patterns will be erased.
