Problems Solutions
Deskew doesn’t work properly.
•
Originals with darker backgrounds and dark text are difficult to deskew. Deskew may not work
properly when deskewing dark images.
Scanning speed is slow.
•
Adjust the Scanner software to reduce the resolution and decrease the file size. Lower quality
settings generally results in faster scanning speeds.
•
Scanning takes longer than usual when you enable the Descreen function.
Text created by the OCR software is
incorrect.
•
Select a resolution of minimum 300 dpi in the software settings. The OCR software may not always
convert all text correctly. Please check the document for any errors that the OCR may have missed.
•
The OCR recognition result is generally more accurate with the text-based digital images. Images
with mixed content (text, images, and graphics all in the one page) may result less accurate.
•
Set the Scanner color settings to “B/W” if the text is black against a white background.
•
Check if the quality of the original document is poor through the OCR recognition process.
Scanned images cannot be sent as
email attachments.
•
Be sure that you have a default email client installed and configured, in order to use the Email
function in the iDocScan Touch application.
•
Ensure the scanned images do not exceed email attachment size limitations.
•
Maximum of 20 JPEG files can be attached to one email.
The OCR function in iDocScan
Touch application cannot be used.
•
Be sure that AABBYY FineReader in the Installation CD is installed in your computer before using
the OCR function.
In Long Sheet mode, why it can’t
set a resolution higher than 300
dpi?
•
Performing Long Sheet scanning can consumes great deal of system memory, the Scanner is only
available with the resolution set to 300 dpi or smaller in the Long Sheet mode to provide the best
scanning performance.
Message “Insufficient disk space...”
appears.
•
Scanning multi-page documents or at a high resolution can consume a large amount of disk space
over time, scanning may stop because of insufficient disk space. Please clear the destination
location from time to time.
TROUBLESHOOTING (CONTINUED)
39
Problems Solutions
Memory becomes insufficient and
scanning stops.
•
When scanning conditions that consume a large amount of the computer’s memory, scanning may
stop due to insufficient memory. Exit the application and change the scanning conditions, such as
reduce scanning resolution.
•
Make sure your computer meets the memory and other system requirements as specified.
False multi-feed occurs.
(D50 only)
•
Although working properly, the ultrasonic detection sensor may report a false multifeed when
certain paper or a sticky note attached to document is scanned. In such cases, the “Stop Scanning
After Multi-Feed” in the Job Setting must be disabled to allow scanning of this type of document.
Image saved in the multi-page TIFF
format cannot be opened by other
applications.
•
Not all applications accept the multi-page TIFF format. Applications that do not support multi-page
TIFF format will import and display only the first page of the document.
•
Open the file using the applications that support the multi-page TIFF format.
Files cannot be created.
•
Scanning a large document to multi-page TIFF file or at a high resolution may cause the Scanner to
stop working due to insufficient memory of computer. Alternatively you can save as multi-page PDF
for a smaller file size.
•
Saving multi-page TIFF images or images at a high resolution will create very large files, make sure
you have enough hard disk space to save the multi-page TIFF images.
•
Do not attempt to create a multi-page TIFF file that exceed the 2GB limit. If the file size exceeds
2GB, no multi-page TIFF will be created.
