document is in color, the scanner will automatically scan the
document into a color image. If your document is non-color,
you can choose the output to be either B&W or Gray from the
Non-Color Selection option. This option is typically used when
you have a mixture of color and non-color document.

Note: If you enable Auto Color Detection for either side, it will
be enabled for both sides if you are scanning in duplex.

Sensitivity of Auto Color Detection

If your documents contain primarily B&W text and small
amount of light or pale colors and you do not wish them to be
recognized as color image to save the file size, you can reduce
the sensitivity value by moving the bar to the left to let these
images to be detected as B&W. The value ranges from 1 to 30.
The default is 20.

4.2.2 Other Image Options

Binarization

This is the process of converting a
grayscale or color image to a bi-tonal or
Black and White image. There are several
different methods of performing this
conversion. Options: Dynamic

Threshold, Fixed Processing, Halftone
1~5, Error Diffusion.

Dynamic Threshold: Selecting
Dynamic Threshold allows the scanner

to dynamically evaluate each document
to determine the optimal threshold value
to produce the highest quality image.
This is used to scan mixed document
containing faint text, shaded background,
or color background with a single setting.
If Dynamic Threshold is selected,
Threshold, Brightness, and Contrast are
not available.

Sensitivity of Dynamic Threshold

Occasionally your scanned image may
contain small dots or speckles. To remove
these spots, increase the sensitivity value
by moving the bar to the right. The value
ranges from 1 to 30. The default is 20.

User’s Manual

F600 Manual V.5 Aug 2010

4-9

Fixed Processing: Used for black-and­white and other high contrast documents. A
single level is set to determine the black­and-white transition. The threshold is
programmable over the entire density
range. Fixed Processing sets Contrast to

0. If Fixed Processing is selected,
Contrast is not available.

Halftone: In addition to the black and
white display, Halftone can present a
somehow gray shade of image by using
different size of dots. Halftone image looks
like the picture we have seen in the
newspaper. Options include Halftone 1,

Halftone 2, Halftone 3, Halftone 4,
Halftone 5.

Error Diffusion: Error Diffusion is a type of

Halftone. Error Diffusion gives good image
texture and makes text in images more
readable than Halftone.

Threshold

Used to convert a grayscale image to a
bi-tonal image. The value ranges from 0 to

255. A low threshold value produces a lighter
image, and can be used to subdue
backgrounds and subtle, unneeded
information. A high threshold value produces
a darker image, and can be used to help pick
up faint images.
Adjust the threshold setting by dragging the
Threshold sliding bar to the left or right to

Document Type: Normal, Photo, Document

Three options of document type are provided when you choose
Gray as the image type for your scanned document: Normal,
Photo, Document.

 Document: Choose Document if your original contains

pure text or a mixture of text and graphic since it is an
optimal setting for regular business document. When
using Document, only Threshold can be adjusted.

 Photo: Choose Photo if your original is a photo or similar

to reproduce your photo in vivid grayscale image. When
using Photo, Threshold and Contrast are locked.

 Normal: When using Normal, Threshold, Brightness, and

Contrast can be manually adjusted.

Threshold: The value ranges from 0 to 255. The default is

230. A low threshold value produces a lighter image, and can

be used to subdue backgrounds and subtle, unneeded
information. A high threshold value produces a darker image,
and can be used to help pick up faint images. Adjust the
threshold setting by dragging the Threshold sliding bar to the
left or right to achieve the desired threshold setting.

Resolution

Resolution is the value that controls how
much information is captured when the scan
is performed. A higher resolution will
capture more information and increase the
file size, trading off performance for quality.
Most business documents are best saved in
200 or 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) depending on
the size and quality of the text. For
reference, an letter size color image scanned
at 300 dpi at in color consumes about 25 MB
of disk space when uncompressed. A higher
resolution (over 400 dpi) is only
recommended when you need to scan a very
small area.

Choose a resolution value from the drop
down list. The default value is 200 dpi.
Available resolutions are 75, 100, 150,
200,300, 400 and 600. Or you may manually
set the resolution by clicking the button
labeled […] next to the drop down list and
enter your desired value, pressing the Add
button to include it in the drop down list.

Invert

Reverses the brightness and the colors in the

4.3 The Compression Tab

The Compression tab allows you to compress your scanned
image and choose the level of compression. Bi-tonal images
are normally compressed using CCITT standard called Group 4
(G4). Color and grayscale images are often compressed using
JPEG technology. Move the JPEG Quality slider to the right or
left to increase or decrease the level of compression. Note the
greater the compression level, the lower image quality. Default
is 50%.

Note that when scanning from certain applications, not all
compression modes are supported. If the application does not
support the type of compression format, typically you will see
an error or a black image.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Editor Group). This group developed
and lent their name to a file compression standard for color and
grayscale images that is widely used by scanners, and software
applications. On Microsoft Windows-based systems, a file with
the extension .jpg has normally been compressed using this
standard.

For scanning color or gray images, the following compressions
are available:

 None
 JPEG

For scanning B&W images, the following compressions are

available:

 None
 G4

4.4 The Color Dropout Tab

4.4.1 Color Dropout Selection

Color Dropout is a special type of image processing designed to
improve OCR results by removing specific types of background
color content. Typically this is used in conjunction with
specially designed forms that have colored boxes or checkboxes
that people fill in. Using dropout allows you to remove these
specially colored boxes from the image and provides you with
better OCR results. It can also be used to remove a specific
background color if it is causing a lot of noisy speckling.

From the dropdown menu, you can select any of the standard
RGB color channels to be removed, or Custom to allow you to
specify your desired color to be removed by entering its RGB
(Red, Green, and Blue) value respectively.

Tolerance: Specify the allowable color range to be removed for
the color you selected. Specified range: 1 ~ 100
The large the numeric value, the wider the color dropout range
is.

Note that this function is only for outputting black & white or
gray images.

your scanned image in the best optimal result.

Filter

Threshold

This value is used to determine the color
which will be dropped out. A lower value will
drop more of the selected color out, while a
higher value will leave more of the selected
color in.

Background

Level

The pixel which is higher than the
background value will be adjusted to the
lightest point. Adjust the value for both the
Filter Threshold and Background Level to

OverScan

Overscan allows you to add a specific margin at top and bottom
or right and left (Options vary based on the type of scanner) of
the edge of the image. This is used to reduce possible corner
clipping on the skewed images and often applied to a batch of
skewed document to be scanned in the auto document feeder.
Select a value between 0 and +5 mm. Note the overscan
result will not be shown in the Display window and that the
availability of the function varies based on type of scanner.

Pre-Feed

auto scan after the first scan job is completed. If you have
many separate documents need to be scanned at the same
scan settings, this feature is especially useful. The default is 0.
The value ranges from 0 to 30 seconds.

4-34

Note:
1 Within the specified timeout period, if you load your

document to the feeder, the scanner starts scanning
automatically.

2 If your scanner has a flatbed option and you place your

paper on the flatbed, after the timeout period, you need
to click the Scan button on the TWAIN user interface to
start scanning.

4.5.3 Multimode cropping

This feature provides flexibility if you are performing a scan
that outputs in a more than one mode (B&W, Gray, or Color);
you can assign different crop areas on your documents for each
color mode. For example, there are applications which require
you to store the entire form in B&W and a part of the document
in color to save storage space. This is useful for documents
where a photograph, or signature appears in a consistent area
on the document such as resumes, and so on.

The following directions describes how to scan the entire
document in B&W and keep a small portion of the document
(picture) in color.

1. On the Paper tab, choose ―Relative to Document‖ or ―Fixed

to Transport‖ from the Cropping option.

2. Choose your scan size from the Scan Area option. The

selected scan size will be displayed in a red rectangular
box. This is also the scan size of your entire document. (If
you have not chosen a scan area and leave the selection
