automatic document feeder that runs at 130 pages per minute which
includes an enhanced printer.
New features These features are for Kodak i700 Series Scanners, Firmware Version
2.1.1 (or higher).
• Fast elevator — the elevator speed is twice as fast as the previous
versions of the Kodak i700/i600 Series Scanners.
• Quick reload — allows you to quickly reload small stacks of
documents before the elevator returns to the original Paper Source
position (e.g., 250 Sheet, 500 Sheet, etc.). For example, if the Paper
Source position is set to 500 Sheets and there are several small
batches of documents that you want to scan separately, this feature
allows you to place the documents in the elevator tray as soon it is
descending. The elevator will immediately rise to the feeding position
before returning to the 500-sheet Paper Source position.

3 Using the Scanner
This chapter provides the following operational procedures:
• Turning on/off the scanner
• Starting, stopping, pausing and resuming the scanner
• Document preparation
• Adjusting the side guides and output tray
• Scanning documents
• Feeding long documents
• Automatic, continuous and manual feeding
• Calibration
Turning the scanner on and off
Sta rting and stopping scanning
• Press the button on the scanner’s lower right-side (I) to power it up.
• Press the button on the scanner’s lower right-side (O) to power it
down.
After you power up the scanner, wait until for it to complete self-test.
When completed, the top green indicator light will remain on and
constant. If this does not occur, refer to Chapter 6, “Indicator lights” for
more information.
IMPORTANT:Always power up the scanner to its ready state before
powering up or restarting the host computer.
Scanning is controlled by integration software developed for your
application. To start and stop scanning, refer to the documentation
provided with your integration software.
If your application does not automatically start the scanner transport,
begin the scanning process by pressing the Start/Resume button on
the scanner.
NOTE: Before you start scanning, make sure the scanner is ready for
operation, which is indicated by the top green indicator light
being on and constant.

and resuming the
scanner
• Press the Stop/Pause button on the scanner once to pause
scanning.
NOTE: Your application may configure the scanner with a transport
timeout function which signals an End of Job. If you do not start/
resume scanning before the timeout expires, you cannot
continue scanning without restarting the job from the host
application.
• Press the Start/Resume button on the scanner to restart scanning
after it has been paused.
Automatically pausing and resuming the scanner
Manually ending scanning
During scanning the scanner monitors its own internal image buffer
memory. In order to prevent overwriting images before the host
computer can retrieve them, the scanner will automatically pause the
feeder while waiting for the host computer to read existing images.
The scanner automatically resumes scanning by restarting the feeder
once image buffer memory is cleared. To avoid this situation be sure
your host computer meets the minimum system requirements as
referred to in Chapter 2.
After feeding the last document to be scanned, you can end scanning
by pressing the Stop/Pause button on the scanner twice. An end of job
message will be sent to your host application.
You cannot continue scanning without restarting the job from the host
application.
3-2 A-61500 May 2010
Document preparation
Before you begin scanning documents, make certain the documents
can be fed through the scanner easily.
• A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so
the leading edges of all documents are aligned and centered under
the feed module; this allows the feeder to introduce documents into
the scanner one at a time.
• Staples and paper clips in documents may damage the scanner and
documents. Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning.
• Documents with missing corners, perforated edges, hole punches in
the margins, irregular and curled edges, torn, damaged, or crushed
pages can be transported successfully through the scanner.
However, no scanner can transport every possible type of damaged
paper. If in doubt about whether a specific damaged document can
be transported through the scanner, place the document in a clear
protective sleeve with the lead edge of the document aligned with the
folded edge of the sleeve. Sleeves should be manually fed, one at a
time, folded edge first, while using the gap release lever. Ultrasonic
multi-feed detection is not recommended when using plastic sleeves.
NOTE: When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve, the
elevator tray side guides must be aligned to accommodate the
width of the sleeve.
Kodak scanners have been tested with a range of documents that
represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most
common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is
achieved when scanning documents within the recommended
document specifications listed below. Scanning documents outside of
these specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanne r
reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.
Materials:
• Virgin, recycled and photographic papers
• Clear protective sleeves meeting the size and thickness
requirements in this section
Paper Types: Bond, Laser, Inkjet, Offset
Paper Weights: The elevator tray handles a broad range of paper

(7 to 20 lbs).
Minimum Document Size: 6.4 x 6.4 cm (2.5 x 2.5 in.). Documents as
small as 5 cm (2 in.) (i.e. business cards) can be center-fed, in portrait
orientation one at a time.

Paper inks: All inks on the paper must be dry before scanning is
started. This includes: Standard offset printing, Inkjet printer, Thermal
transfer, Handwriting inks.
Correction Fluids: Liquid Paper®, Tipp-Ex®, Wite-out®, and other
similar correction fluids.
Feeder Capacity: The elevator tray can hold up to 500 sheets of

Adjusting the side guides and end stop
To accommodate multiple applications with variable feeding
requirements, the side guides can be adjusted for right-, left- or centeredge feeding. The side guides can be moved together or independently
to achieve offset feeding.
1. Pull the side guides all the way out and then push them together
(toward the center) to reset or center them.
2. Open the side guides slightly wider than the documents you will be
feeding.
3. Adjust the output tray end stop to slightly longer than the longest
document being fed in a batch.
4. Place the documents in the elevator tray.
5. Adjust the side guides to fit the documents.

Locking the side guides
Side guides may be locked into position after they are adjusted. This
may be helpful when the placement of print strings is important.
If you want to lock the side guides into position, move any documents
which may be in the input tray and move the locking switch into the
locked position.
Adjusting the back of the output tray
Different paper types stack differently. The output tray can be set in
either one of two positions. In addition, you can raise the front of the
output tray to lift the front edge of the documents.
To raise or lower the back of the output tray:
1. Lift the front of the output tray and pull it out of the detent position.
2. Set the back of the tray either in the upper position or lower position
as desired.

Adjusting the optional short document tray
The short document tray is available for scanning smaller documents.
This tray is standard with the Kodak i700 Series Scanners. If you have
a Kodak i600 Series Scanner, the short document tray can be ordered
from Parts Services. See Chapter 5, “Supplies and Consumables” for
ordering information.
