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 60 ppm/120 ipm (fi-7160/fi-7260) (*1), or 80 ppm/160 ipm (fi-7180/fi-7280) (*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.
LCD
The scanner mounts the LCD that displays the operational settings for scanning documents, the number of sheets scanned, and 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, simplifying 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.
Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise
This function reduces the risk of having the documents damaged by stopping the scan when the scanner detects paper jam noise.
Advanced image processing function
The scanner's automatic detection function outputs images in color or monochrome by the document content.
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-7160/fi-7180.
Scanning on black background
Black document pad is available as an option, which allows you to perform scanning on black background when using the flatbed. 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-7260/fi-7280.
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 and 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.

1.11 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 keep track of consumable parts that need
replacing, errors that have occurred, and maintenance that is needed. The operating status of scanners can be checked easily.
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 SCAModuleCreator
Use this application to create update modules to upload onto the Scanner Central Admin Server. It is only required for creating update modules.

- It is recommended to place the card face-down in the ADF paper chute.
- Cards should be within the following specifications: ISO7810 ID-1 type compliant Size : 85.6 × 53.98 mm Thickness : 1.4 mm or less (*1) Material : PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or PVCA (polyvinyl chloride
acetate)
Make sure to check if the card can be scanned first. *1: Up to 1.25 mm is supported for scanning at 300 dpi or less (80
ppm) in landscape when using the fi-7180/fi-7280. This setting can be changed in the Software Operation Panel to scan plastic cards with a thickness up to 1.4 mm. For details, refer to "Scanning Thick Plastic Cards [Feed
Mode] (fi-7180/fi-7280)" (page 194).
- Rigid cards may not be fed properly.
- If the surface of the card is dirty with grease marks (e.g. fingerprints) and such, perform scanning after wiping the dirt off.
- Plastic cards cannot be scanned when the imprinter is connected.
- 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.

Conditions for Multifeed Detection

Index
An error may occur when there are punched holes in the area shaded in light blue in the following figure. Such documents can be scanned by using the flatbed (fi-7260/fi-7280).
ATTENTION
The above condition applies when the document is set to the center of the pick roller width.
HINT
If there are any holes in the 35 mm-wide central column, you can move the document to the left or right to avoid an error.
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
z Load documents of the same paper weight in the ADF paper chute
(feeder).
2
z Paper weight: 27 to 413 g/m z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the
document. See Fig.1.
z Do not attach other documents within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the
center of the document. See Fig.1.
(7.2 to 110 lb)
Detection by length
z Load documents of the same length in the ADF paper chute (feeder). z Variance in document lengths: 1% or less z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the
document. See Fig.1.
Detection by overlapping and length
z Load documents of the same paper weight and length in the ADF
paper chute (feeder).
z Paper weight: 27 to 413 g/m z Variance in document lengths: 1% or less z Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the

Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning

The following conditions apply when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights/friction coefficients/ sizes. Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the documents can be scanned. For details, refer to "Documents with Different Widths" (page
87).
Paper direction
Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.
Paper weight
The following paper weights can be used:
2
27 to 413 g/m
Friction coefficient
It is recommended to 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 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 to check the documents thoroughly before scanning
and also check the image if the document was skewed.
ATTENTION
z When scanning a mixed batch with different sizes, documents are
more likely to skew because the side guides do not contact every sheet.
z Do not use [Check Length] or [Check Overlapping and Length] for
multifeed detection.
Documents that cannot be scanned in a mixed batch
The following types of documents cannot be mixed in the same batch:
z Carbonless paper z Bond paper z Perforated documents z Thermal paper z Carbon-backed paper z OHP film z Tracing paper

(17 lb) when folded in half
z 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.
z Do not write on, color, stain, or cut the end with a black and white
pattern on the Carrier Sheet.
z Do not place the Carrier Sheet upside down. Otherwise, a paper jam
may occur and damage the Carrier Sheet and the document inside.
z 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.
z 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.
z Do not fold or pull the Carrier Sheet. z Do not use a damaged Carrier Sheet because it may damage or
cause the scanner to malfunction.
z To avoid deformation, keep the Carrier Sheet on a flat surface without
any weight on it.
z Be careful not to cut your finger on the edge of the Carrier Sheet. z 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.
z Paper jams may occur when you place several small documents (e.g.
photos, postcards) in the Carrier Sheet for scanning. It is recommended to place only one document at a time in the Carrier Sheet.

5.3 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.
z To scan as you check the contents of each sheet. z To scan documents that cause multifeed or paper jam when loaded
together in the same batch.
z To continue scanning documents such as magazine/newspaper
clippings that cannot be loaded together.
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 operator panel or 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
z Pressing the [Stop/Clear] button on the operator panel will stop
the scan immediately.
z 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).
z When you use manual feeding frequently, replacement cycle of
the consumables may be shortened.
