3. Click the Scan Settings tab.

4. Adjust the following scan settings:

Mode

Select Black/White to scan in black and white for items such as letters and memos. Select Grayscale to scan items such as documents containing drawings or black-and-white photographs. The scan produces an image in varying shades of gray. Select Color to scan color photographs and other color items.

Resolution

Drag the Resolution slider to the right or to the left to adjust the dots-per-inch (dpi) resolution. The resolution can be between 50 and 600 dpi. Higher dpi settings make scanned images sharper and clearer. However, scanning with higher dpi settings takes longer and produces larger files for the scanned images.

Brightness and Contrast

Drag the sliders to the right or to the left to adjust the brightness and contrast of the scanned image.

Note: For more information on appropriate scan configuration settings, see

“Using the preset scan configurations” on page 1-10.

If you select Custom from the drop-down menu, boxes display instead of the picture. Type the horizontal and vertical page dimensions for your scan in the boxes.

AutoCrop

When you select AutoCrop, the scanner automatically determines the item size before scanning the item. For example, if you place a photograph in the middle of the glass, the scanner automatically determines the size of the photograph before scanning the image. The AutoCrop option overrides the Page Size menu selection.

DeScreen

Select this option to produce a clearer image when you scan a picture from a newspaper or magazine article, or any item that contains images with patterns or dots. If you do not select the DeScreen option, the scanner might produce a moire pattern from a scan of patterns or dots. However, the scanner might take longer to produce an image when you select DeScreen. You do not need to select this option when scanning photographs.

Gamma

Note: You must scan in an image before adjusting the Gamma setting. You can use the Gamma option to more precisely match colors. The default

Gamma setting works fine in most cases and usually does not need to be adjusted. However, because the computer does not always accurately display color information on the monitor, you might need to use the Gamma feature to make color adjustments. Drag the slider to adjust how the colors in a scanned image display on your monitor.

7. If you are creating a new configuration or you are adjusting settings in a preset configuration, type a new name for the configuration and press Enter. If you are adjusting a configuration that you created, verify that the configuration name is correct, and press Enter.

8. Click OK to return to the IBM IdeaScan 2000 Scanner Preferences window.

9. Verify that the configuration you defined is selected; then click OK so that changes take effect. Note: If you select the Copy/Print or Fax button, you can use the Device tab to

select an option for a printer or copier when you make changes in the configuration setting window. For more information, refer to the online help.

Scanning a photograph

To scan a photograph:

1. Open the document cover, and place the photograph on the glass. Be sure to place the photograph face down with the top edge and side edge of the photograph on the corner of the glass near the reference icon.

2. Close the document cover.

3. Press the green Scan button on the scanner or click the the Scan button icon in the Simple Access Button window on your computer screen to start the scanner. Note: The scanner lamp must warm up for a few moments on the initial scan.

After the scanner has been idle for a period of time, the lamp

automatically turns off to conserve energy and lamp life . After the scanner completes scanning the photograph, the image of the item displays on the PaperPort desktop view. Your photograph is now stored here until you want to take some other action such as editing, faxing, e-mailing, or printing it.

For more information, review the PaperPort Help information by doing the following:

1. Click Help.

2. Click PaperPort Help Topics.

E-mailing a photograph

If you can send e-mail from your computer, you can send a photo image as an e-mail attachment by using an e-mail icon in the PaperPort Link Bar at the bottom of the PaperPort desktop. After a photograph is displayed on the PaperPort desktop view, you can drag and drop the photograph onto an e-mail icon in the Link Bar at the bottom of the PaperPort window. Before trying to drag and drop, be sure that you know how to use the mouse to drag and drop an item and that you know which icon in the PaperPort Link Bar represents your e-mail program.

To e-mail a photograph:

1. Scan a photograph using the instructions given in “Scanning a photograph.”

2. Locate the icon for your e-mail program in the PaperPort Link Bar at the bottom of the PaperPort window. You might need to use your mouse to scroll the link icons from side to side to find the icon.

3. In the PaperPort desktop view, locate the photograph that you want to e-mail.

4. Drag and drop the photograph on the e-mail icon. When you drag and drop a photograph to the e-mail link, the PaperPort software

attaches the photograph to the e-mail note in its original format.

Part 1: Installation and user ’s guide 1-17

Note: Some image formats are more Internet-friendly than others. For example, the

.JPG image format works well with the Internet because it compresses the data and makes the image file smaller. E-mails are transmitted faster when they contain smaller image files. You also need to use a file format that can be viewed by the receiver of the e-mail. PaperPort saves a photograph in .MAX format after it is scanned. If you want to save the photograph in another format, you must save a copy in the new format.

You can customize the preferences of one of the Simple Access Buttons so that it automatically scans, saves the image in your preferred format and attaches it to your preferred e-mail program.

Managing scanned images

Saving color and grayscale images can create large files and use large amounts of hard-disk space. To conserve hard-disk space, save the image in a file format with a built-in compression feature such as JPEG. The more a file is compressed, the less disk space it requires. However, the image quality decreases when compression is increased.

You can use the following instructions, for example, to save an image in JPEG format in PaperPort:

1. Right-click on the item you want to use.

2. Click Export.

3. Click the pull-down arrow in the Save as Type section.

4. Click JPEG image files (*.JPG).

5. Type a new file name in the Save In box or in the File name box if you do not like the default file name.

6. Click Save.

7. Select the desired compression quality. The compression is usually set to 90.

8. Click OK.

Caring for your scanner

Review the following scanner maintenance tips.

Keep dust away from your scanner. Keep your scanner covered when not in use. Dust particles and other foreign

objects might deteriorate image quality.

Do not attempt to disassemble the scanner. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside the scanner. Disassembly of the scanner voids the warranty.

Do not subject the scanner to excessive vibration. Operate your scanner in temperatures between 10°C (50°F) and 40°C (104°F). To clean the scanner:

1. Lightly spray a nonabrasive glass cleaner on a lint-free cloth.

Warranty Period* - One Year

*Contact your place of purchase for warranty service information. Some IBM Machines are eligible for On-site warranty service depending on the country where service is performed.

The IBM Warranty for Machines

IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM's Official Published Specifications. The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your sales receipt is the Date of Installation, unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.

During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to provide warranty service, will provide repair and exchange service for the Machine, without charge, under the type of service designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering changes that apply to the Machine.

If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and IBM or your reseller are unable to either 1) make it do so or 2) replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent, you may return it to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order.

Extent of Warranty

The warranty does not cover the repair or exchange of a Machine resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, improper maintenance by you, or failure caused by a product for which IBM is not responsible. The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of Machine or parts identification labels.

THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THESE WARRANTIES GIVE YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD.

Items Not Covered by Warranty

IBM does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine.

Unless specified otherwise, IBM provides non-IBM machines

OF ANY KIND.

Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as assistance via telephone with “how-to” questions and those regarding Machine set-up and installation, will be

provided

WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND.

Warranty Service

WITHOUT WARRANTIES

Part 2: Appendixes 2-3

To obtain warranty service for the Machine, contact your reseller or IBM. In the United States, call IBM at 1-800-772-2227. In Canada, call IBM at 1-800-565-3344. You may be required to present proof of purchase.

IBM or your reseller provides certain types of repair and exchange service, either at your location or at a service center, to keep Machines in, or restore them to, conformance with their Specifications. IBM or your reseller will inform you of the available types of service for a Machine based on its country of installation. IBM may repair the failing Machine or exchange it at its discretion.

When warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the warranty service status of the replaced item.

Any feature, conversion, or upgrade IBM or your reseller services must be installed on a Machine which is 1) for certain Machines, the designated, serial-numbered Machine and 2) at an engineering-change level compatible with the feature, conversion, or upgrade. Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of the removed part.

Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service.

You also agree to

1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its exchange;

2. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM or your reseller service a Machine that you do not own; and

3. where applicable, before service is provided

a. follow the problem determination, problem analysis, and service request procedures that

IBM or your reseller provides, b. secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine, c. provide IBM or your reseller with sufficient, free, and safe access to your facilities to

permit them to fulfill their obligations, and d. inform IBM or your reseller of changes in a Machine's location.

IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine while it is 1) in IBM's possession or

2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the transportation charges.

Neither IBM nor your reseller is responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary or personal information contained in a Machine which you return to IBM or your reseller for any reason. You should remove all such information from the Machine prior to its return.

Production Status

Each IBM Machine is manufactured from new parts, or new and used parts. In some cases, the Machine may not be new and may have been previously installed. Regardless of the Machine's production status, IBM's appropriate warranty terms apply.

Limitation of Liability

Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on IBM's part or other liability, you are entitled to recover damages from IBM. In each such instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from IBM (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or tort claim), IBM is liable for no more than

2-4 IdeaScan 2000 Color Flatbed Scanner User’s Guide

1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal property; and

2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the greater of U.S. $100,000 (or equivalent in local currency) or the charges (if recurring, 12 months' charges apply) for the Machine that is the subject of the claim.

This limit also applies to IBM's suppliers and your reseller. It is the maximum for which IBM, its suppliers, and your reseller are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IBM LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING: 1) THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES (OTHER THAN THOSE UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2) LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, YOUR RECORDS OR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR SAVINGS), EVEN IF IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR YOUR RESELLER IS INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
