INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the CS1000EV/CS1100EV Image Scanner. The CS1000EV/ CS1100EV is capable of accurately performing high-speed scanning of documents ranging in size from ISO A4 to ANSI E (CS1000EV) or ANSI D (CS1100EV). An image scanner scans an image by illuminating a document and then reading the reflected light using linear image sensors. The CS1000EV/CS1100EV converts the scanned image data to 8-bit color, 256-tone grayscale or bilevel (monochrome) data, which is then transmitted rapidly to the host system via the SCSI interface. This User’s Manual describes how to operate the CS1000EV/CS1100EV, and also includes usage precautions. Read the manual thoroughly prior to use in order to ensure full understanding of the product’s features, and to ensure effective use. Keep the manual in a safe place where it can be accessed easily whenever necessary.
Items in this manual marked are precautions to ensure safe use. Please be sure to observe them strictly.

1. OVERVIEW

1. OVERVIEW

1.1 Features

600-dpi optical resolution for high-precision image scanning
Scanning with an optical resolution of 600 dpi allows even complex and difficult-to-scan documents, such as CAD drawings, electronic files, and mapping data to be scanned rapidly and with high precision. Scanning Master 21+ (scanner software included as a standard accessory) can be used to adjust the resolution in five levels (200 dpi to 800 dpi) to suit the scanned document.
Compatible document widths range from 210 mm to 1000 mm (CS1000EV), or to 630 mm (CS1100EV)
Compatible with document sizes from ISO A4 up to ANSI E (CS1000EV) or ANSI D (CS1100EV)
Capable of color and grayscale scanning
Capable of scanning in color (8-bit color) or grayscale (256 shades)
Capable of reading long-axis data
Long-axis images are supported with a maximum length of approximately four meters each.
Compact and lightweight design
A compact design was achieved by using a document travel system that employs closely­adhered image sensors in the sensor unit (five rows arranged in a zigzag pattern).
Image-processing functions
Use of the scanning software provided lets you set image-processing functions for the scanning of a document.
Interface
The interface conforms to the SCSI-2 standard.

Document support wires
If you are using the CS1100EV model, make sure that the document support wires are attached before beginning a scanning operation. If you perform scanning without the wires attached, the document may be damaged if it comes into contact with the SCSI cable.
Attaching the document support wires
(1) Insert one end of the document support wire provided into the slot at the rear of the
scanner.
2 – 6 CS1000EV/1100EV
(2) Squeeze the document support wire, and insert the other end.

3. PREPARING TO OPERATE THE SCANNER

3. PREPARING TO OPERATE THE SCANNER

3.1 System Requirements

The minimum system requirements for running the scanner’s hardware and software are listed below.
Operating system: Windows 95/98/Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000/XP or later CPU: Pentium 133 MHz or higher Memory: 32 MB or more Monitor: 1024 × 768 pixels, 256 colors or more Enough disk space to store data Mouse SCSI board by Adaptec
Recommended environment
For binary monochrome data
CPU: Pentium 200 MHz or higher Memory: 64 MB or more SCSI board by Adaptec (PCI type)
For grayscale data
CPU: Pentium III 550 MHz or higher Memory: 256 MB or more Monitor: 1024 × 768 pixels, High Color or higher resolution SCSI board by Adaptec (PCI type)
For 8-bit color data
CPU: Pentium III 866 MHz or higher Memory: 512 MB or more Monitor: 1024 × 768 pixels, True Color or higher SCSI board by Adaptec (PCI type)
The system configuration should correspond to the recommended specifications listed here, in order to ensure the optimum capabilities of the scanner. Use with a system configuration below the recommended specifications will affect the scanning speed and prevent the scanner from operating to its specified capabilities. To edit an A1-size or larger grayscale document with a resolution of 400 dpi or higher, or an 8-bit color document, you may need more than the recommended memory sizes above. Depending on the type of document, you may not be able to scan in the document even if you increase the memory size.
CS1000EV/1100EV 3 – 1
3. PREPARING TO OPERATE THE SCANNER

3.2 Connecting the Scanner to a Power Supply

Insert the female plug of the power cord provided into the scanner’s AC line inlet and insert its male plug into an electrical socket supplying AC voltage. Check that the scanner’s Power switch remains in the Off position until the connection of both the power cord and SCSI interface cable has been completed.
If you have a CS1100EV model, please refer to Section 2.2, “Part Names and Functions”, page 2-5, for the location of the AC line inlet.
Ensure that the scanner’s Power switch is in the Off position.
