long documents.

• Set the output tray to the middle position when you are scanning
letter- or A4-size documents.

• Set the output tray to the highest position with the first document stop
raised when you are scanning checks and small documents (less
than 10.2 cm/4 inches).

• Use the highest position with the second document stop raised when
you are scanning documents that are 14 cm/5.5 inches long.

To adjust the output tray:

1. Grasp the tray on each side.

2. Lift the tray up and move it up or down to the desired position.

A-61550 May 2007 17

Start and stop scanning

Before you start scanning, make sure the scanner is on and ready for
operation, which is indicated by the green indicator light being on and
constant.

Scanning is controlled by application software designed to capture
images. To start and stop scanning, refer to the documentation
provided with your application software.

Document preparation

• A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so
the leading edges of all documents are aligned and centered in the
input tray; this allows the feeder to introduce documents into the
scanner one at a time.

• Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning. Staples and
paper clips on documents may damage the scanner and documents.

• Documents should be in good condition.

• 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. Sleeves should be
manually fed, one at a time, folded edge first, while lifting the gap
release lever.

NOTE: You also can use the optional Kodak i1400 Series A3 Flatbed

to scan.

• When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve, the input tray
guides must be adjusted to accommodate the width of the sleeve.

Paper Types: Bond, Laser, Inkjet, Offset

NOTE: Chemically coated papers may cause more rapid wear/swelling

of the rollers.

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 must be dry before scanning is started.

Paper Weights: 7.3 to 200 g/m

Maximum Document Size: 30.5 x 86 cm (12 x 34 in.)

Minimum Document Size: 8.9 x 5 cm (3.5 x 2.5 in.)

4 Image Processing

Overview This chapter introduces concepts that may be new to some users. The

Kodak i1400 Series Scanners provide the ability to process scanned
images to improve their quality. Using these features the scanner can
sometimes make the scanned image look better than the original
document. Basic image processing concepts are reviewed in this
chapter to help you take advantage of these features.

Image processing refers to several separate features of the scanner
that allow you to automatically adjust each image in a certain way that
may improve the resulting images. Common examples of image
processing features are correcting any skew in the fed document,
cutting the edges of the image off to remove any unneeded border or
cleaning up extraneous “noise” on the image. This can be done
automatically so you can get better images with minor rework.

The information that follows describes the image processing features.
The same options should be available on the user interface of the
scanning application you are using (i.e., Kodak Capture Software).

Terminology and features

Starting the Scan Validation Tool

If you have used previous scanners from Kodak, you may be familiar
with the image processing features already. With the new graphical
user interface in the TWAIN datasource, some of the names of those
features have changed. Refer to Appendix B, TWAIN Image
Processing Terminology for a cross reference of previous names with
new names.

Using the TWAIN datasource

The Kodak i1400 Series Scanners can provide a wide variety of
electronic images. This can be done by using the TWAIN datasource
Kodak provides in concert with your scanning application. The TWAIN
datasource is the part of the capture system which links the scanner to
your scanning application.

When using the TWAIN datasource, the main Kodak Scanner window
will display a list of Setting Shortcuts. Each Setting Shortcut is a group
of specific image and device settings. The supplied Setting Shortcuts
represent some common electronic image outputs used for a wide
variety of input documents. If none of the Setting Shortcuts meet your
scanning needs, you can create a customized Setting Shortcut. For
example, you could create a Setting Shortcut called “Invoices” and
whenever you want to scan invoices, you simply select that Setting
Shortcut. For more information, refer to the sections entitled, “Creating
a new Setting Shortcut” and “Changing image settings” later in this
chapter.

For the purpose of this manual, all displayed dialog boxes assume the
features available on the Kodak i1420 and i1440 Scanners (duplex
scanner). If you have a Kodak i1410 Scanner (simplex scanner) all
options are limited to one-sided scanning only.

How do I begin? The goal is to make scanning as simple as possible. This is

accomplished by selecting a Setting Shortcut from the main Kodak
Scanner window and then selecting OK/Scan.

The scanner comes with some Setting Shortcuts already defined. In
most cases, you will find that these shortcuts are all you will need. If you
find that you need different settings, then you should create your own
Setting Shortcut. Your shortcut will be added to the list of Setting
Shortcuts and available for all future scanning.

Most of the options you will want to set are available on these two
windows:

• Image Settings: clicking the Settings button on the main Kodak
Scanner window, displays the Image Settings window. From this
window you can set your image processing parameters by using the
General, Size, Adjustments and Enhancements tab. You can also
access the Device settings, by clicking the Device button or the
Advanced settings by clicking the Advanced Image Setup icon.

• Device Settings: the Device button is located on the Image Settings
window. When you select Device, you will have access to the
General and Multifeed tabs (and Printer tab if you have the document
printer installed). From the Device Settings window, you can also
access Diagnostics.

36 A-61550 May 2007

The procedures that follow describe how to configure a customized
Setting Shortcut. Complete descriptions of the features and options on
the Kodak Scanner window and tabs are found in the section entitled,
“The main Kodak Scanner window”.

NOTE: Setting Shortcuts can sometimes be overridden by your

scanning application. If this happens, the shortcut you call will
appear in the main Kodak Scanner window in italics with the
word <Changed> next to it. This is normal behavior for an
application that does not use Setting Shortcuts and downloads
its preferred individual settings to the scanner first and then
provides access to the TWAIN datasource.

When you click OK to begin scanning, you will be asked if you
want to save the changed settings. When using an application
that does not use Setting Shortcuts, select No to this prompt
and continue scanning.

Selecting Image settings

From the main Kodak Scanner window:

1. Select a predefined Setting Shortcut from the Setting Shortcuts list.

Choose a Setting Shortcut that describes as closely as possible the
image output you desire.

2. Determine if you want to capture an electronic image of the front of

your document, back of your document or both sides of your
document and make the selection from the Input document is drop­down list. Options are:

• Two Sided — captures both sides of the document

• One Sided-Front — captures the front side only

• One Sided-Back — captures the back side only

A-61550 May 2007 37

3. Place one or two representative documents in the input tray of the

scanner.

NOTE: When scanning one side of a document or if you are using

an i1410 Scanner, be sure to place the side of the
document to be scanned facing the input tray.

4. If you want to see what your selected image processing options will

look like and make on-screen changes, click Preview to review and
adjust the image.

NOTE: This only needs to be done if you want to make interactive

adjustments to your selected image processing options.

5. If you are satisfied with your selected image processing options,

reload your document if necessary and click OK/Scan.

• If the images are acceptable, the image processing settings are
fine and you do not need to click the Settings button to alter any
values in the General, Size, Adjustments or Enhancements tabs.

• If the images are not acceptable, you can either select a different
predefined Setting Shortcut that more closely describes your
desired output or you can continue to work with the Setting
Shortcut you have selected by reviewing each setting on the
General, Size, Adjustments and Enhancements tabs and make
the appropriate changes. When you make any changes, repeat
Steps 3 - 5 to until you get the desired results.

6. If you made any changes to a predefined default Setting Shortcut,
click Save As on the main Kodak Scanner window. The Save As
dialog box will be displayed.

7. Enter a new Setting Shortcut name that is meaningful to you and
click Save. You have now created and saved a custom Setting
Shortcut which can be used for your scanning operations.

Adjustments tab: black and white

The options available on the Adjustments tab depend on the Scan as
selection on the General tab. The following options are based on a

Scan as selection of Black and White.

Conversion quality — these settings effect how the scanner analyzes

a grayscale version of the document which is used to produce the black
and white electronic image.

• Best (iThresholding): the scanner analyzes each document to
produce the highest quality image. This option allows scanning of
mixed documents with varying quality (i.e., faint text, shaded
backgrounds, color backgrounds) and when scanning with consistent
document sets.

• Normal (ATP): allows you to determine the optimal settings to
produce the desired image quality. This option works best when
scanning with consistent document sets. You may also want to use
this option if you have difficult documents such that you cannot find a
Contrast setting for Best that produces the desired quality.

• Draft (Fixed): allows you to select the grayscale threshold used to
determine if a pixel is black or white. This option works best for high
contrast documents.

Contrast — allows you to make an image sharper or softer. Decreasing
this setting will make the image softer and reduce noise in the image.
Increasing this setting will make the image clearer and make light
information more visible. The options range from -50 to 50. The default
is 0.

NOTE: This is not available for Conversion quality: Draft.

A-61550 May 2007 51

Threshold — aids in controlling the level at which a pixel is considered
black or white. Decreasing this setting will make the image appear
lighter, and can be used to subdue background noise. Increasing this
setting will make the image appear darker, and can be used to help pick
up light information. This options range from 0 to 255. The default is 90.

NOTE: This is not available for Conversion quality: Best.

Filters

• Noise

-(none)

- Lone Pixel: reduces random noise by converting a single black
pixel to white when it is completely surrounded by white pixels or
by converting a single white pixel to black when it is completely
surrounded by black pixels.

- Majority Rule: sets each pixel based on its surrounding pixels.
The pixel will become white if the majority of the surrounding
pixels are white and visa versa.

•Image

-(none)

- Halftone Removal: enhances dot matrix text and images with
halftone screens (e.g., newspaper photographs).

Invert Colors — allows you to select how the black pixels will be stored
in the image. By default the black pixels are stored as black and the
white pixels are stored as white. Turn this option on if you want the
black pixels stored as white and the white pixels stored as black.

NOTE: You may want to change this option if your application

misinterprets the image data and stores your image in reverse
of what you expect.

52 A-61550 May 2007

Adjustments tab: color or grayscale

The options available on the Adjustments tab depend on the Scan as
selection on the General tab. The following options are based on a

Scan as selection of Color or Grayscale.

Brightness — changes the amount of white in the color or grayscale
image. The values range from -50 to 50. The default is 0.

Contrast — makes the image sharper or softer. The values range from

-50 to 50. The default is 0.

Red — changes the amount of red in the color image.The values range
from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale images.

Green — changes the amount of green in the color image. The values

range from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale
images.

Blue — changes the amount of blue in the color image. The values
range from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale
images.

Background Smoothing — using this option for documents or forms
with a background color will help produce images with a more uniform
background color. This option improves image quality and may reduce
file size.

• Method:

- (none) - no background smoothing will be performed.

- Automatic - smooths up to three background colors.

- Change to White - identifies up to three background colors and
substitutes each color with white.

too large as it could fill in image data that you want to keep.

A-61550 May 2007 55

Blank Image Detection — allows you to configure the scanner to not
include blank images.

• On: turns Blank Image Detection on and makes the rest of the Blank
Image Detection options available.

• Delete if file size is less than: allows you to select the minimum
image size that the scanner will consider to be non-blank. Any image
that is less than this value will be considered blank and will not be
given to the scanning application. The values range from 1 to 1000
KB (1 KB equals 1024 bytes).

Color Dropout — used to eliminate a form's background so that only
the entered data is included in the electronic image (i.e., remove the
form’s lines and boxes). For black and white images, these settings
effect the grayscale version of the document which the scanner
analyzes to produce that electronic image.

• Color: select the desired dropout color.

- (none)

-Red

-Green

-Blue

NOTE: For i1440 Scanners only: If you created custom dropout

Defining custom dropout colors using the Color Dropout Configuration window

The Color Dropout Configuration window allows you to define custom
dropout colors. If the supplied dropout colors (i.e., red, green, blue) do
not dropout the color on your form, you can create a custom dropout
color that is specific to your form. The custom color is created by using
the Color Dropout Configuration window. If you have a complicated
form that requires more than one dropout color, you can create a
multiple custom color that can dropout up to three colors.

The Color Dropout Configuration window is accessed via the Configure
button on the Enhancements tab of the Image Settings window. This
window includes the following tabs: Single, Multiple and Advanced.

Device — allows you to select which device to perform the
configuration on. The options are: Document Feeder or Flatbed.

Sensitivity

• Low: documents requiring only a small amount of color to be saved
as color/grayscale images. Used for capturing documents that are
primarily black text with small logos, or contain small amounts of
highlighted text or small colorful photos.

• Medium: documents requiring more color, as compared with the Low
option, before they are saved as color/grayscale images.

• High: documents requiring more color, as compared with the Medium
option, before they will be saved as color/grayscale images. Used for
distinguishing documents containing medium- to large-size colorful
photos from plain black text. Photos with neutral colors may require
adjustments to the Color Threshold or Color Amount values in order
to be captured correctly.

70 A-61550 May 2007

• Custom: allows you to manually adjust the Color amount and/or

Color threshold.

NOTE: When setting Sensitivity values, it is suggested that you start

with the Medium option and scan a typical job set. If too
many documents were returned as color/grayscale vs. black
and white, then change to the High option and re-run the job.
If too few documents were returned as color/grayscale vs.
black and white, then change to the Low option and re-run
the job. If none of these options provide the desired result,
select Custom to manually adjust Color Amount and/or Color
Threshold. Custom also allows access to the Learn mode
which provides a method for the scanner to analyze
documents and recommend settings.

Color amount — the amount of color that needs to be present in a
document before it will be saved as either color/grayscale. As the value
of Color Amount increases, more color pixels are required. Valid values
are 1 to 200.

Color threshold — the color threshold or saturation (i.e., pale blue vs.
dark blue) at which a given color will be included in the color amount
calculation. A higher value indicates that a more intense color is
required. Valid values are 0 to 100.

Learn — allows you to calculate your settings based on representative
color documents scanned. Before selecting Learn, place at least 5
representative color documents in the input tray. The documents will be
scanned and analyzed to determine the recommended Color amount.

NOTE: These Color amount and Color threshold sliders will be updated

automatically. If these values do not provide the desired results
with your job set, you may need to manually adjust the Color
Threshold.

• Font — you can select what orientation you want your information to
be printed.

- Style: available character styles: Normal and Bold.

- Orientation: while the characters are printed vertically (starting at
the lead edge of the document) this allows you to select the
orientation of the print string. Available options are: 0, 90, 180, 270.

Feed

Direction 0 90 180 270

Offset from lead edge — select a value from 0.35 to 33.5 inches to

determine how far the printed information will appear from the leading
edge of the document.

NOTE: Printing automatically stops 6.3 mm (1/4-inch) from the trailing

edge of the document even if the information has not been
completely printed.

Device - Multifeed tab Multifeed detection aids in document processing by detecting

documents that may go through the feeder overlapped. Multifeeds can
happen due to stapled documents, adhesives on documents, or
electrostatically charged documents.

Ultrasonic Detection

Sensitivity — controls how aggressively the scanner will work to

determine if more than one document is fed into the scanner. Multi­feeds are triggered by detecting air gaps between documents. This
allows multifeed detection to be used with job sets containing
documents with mixed thicknesses.

• (none)

• Low: least aggressive setting and is less likely to detect labels, poor
quality, thick or wrinkled documents as multi-fed documents.

• Medium: use if your job set has varying document thicknesses or
labels attached to the document. Depending on the label material,
most documents with labels should not be detected as a multi-fed
document.

• High: the most aggressive setting. This is a good setting to use if all
documents are similar in thickness no greater than 20-lb. bond paper.

NOTE: Regardless of the setting, “sticky” notes may still be detected

as multi-fed documents.

Length Detection — allows you to select the maximum length of the
documents in your job set. If the scanner detects a document of that
length or longer, it will determine that a multifeed has occurred. You can
turn this option off or set a length up to 34.5 inches.

A-61550 May 2007 89

Action When Detected — select what action you want the scanner to
take when a multifeed is detected. With all options, the condition will be
logged in the scanner.

• Stop Scanning: scanning will stop and control will return to the
scanning application (i.e., ends the job). Verify that the paper path
has been cleared and restart the scan session from the scanning
application.

• Stop Scanning - leave paper in path: scanning will stop
immediately (i.e., making no attempt to clear the paper path) and
control will return to the scanning application (i.e., ends the job).
Clear any documents from the paper path prior to restarting the scan
session from the scanning application.

• Continue Scanning: the scanner will continue to scan.

Play sound on PC — turn this option on if you want the PC to make a
sound when a multifeed is detected. You can click the Browse button to
select the desired .wav file.

NOTE: The sound on the PC may not occur at the exact time the

multifeed is detected by the scanner.

Diagnostics - General tab The General tab allows you to perform a scanner test and displays the

scanner time.

Tests

• Scanner: similar to, but more extensive than, a power-on self test.
Selecting this will immediately put the device through a series of
checks to determine that all the scanner hardware is working.

• Count only — counts the number of documents entering the scanner
without actually sending the images to the scanning application. This
test is performed during any scan session in which this option is
turned on.

NOTE: This test is automatically turned off when the scanning

application disconnects from the scanner.

A-61550 May 2007 93

• Printer: tests the functionality of the Printer, e.g., are all ink jets
working. This test is performed during any scan session in which this
option is turned on.

NOTE: This test is automatically turned off when the scanning

application disconnects from the scanner.

Scanner Time

• Actual (GMT): displays the Greenwich Mean Time of the scanner.

• Corresponding local time: displays the scanner’s Greenwich Mean
Time in the PC’s local time zone.

: Refresh: redisplays the current scanner time.

94 A-61550 May 2007

Diagnostics - Debug tab The Debug tab allows you to store the communications between the

scanner and a scanning application, as well as the images, to a file that
can be reviewed later by Kodak support personnel.

Logging — saves the communications between the scanner and a
scanning application. The options are: Off (the default), On or Custom.
It is suggested that you do not use the Custom setting, unless directed
to do so by Kodak support personnel.

NOTES:

• Flag and Filter are only available for Custom; only make changes as
directed by Kodak support personnel.

• For changes to take effect, you must restart your application.

Images

• Received From Scanner: normally, it is not necessary to save the
images received at the PC from the scanner. It is suggested that you
only turn this on when instructed by Kodak support personnel.

- Save: normally, it is not necessary to save the images received at
the PC from the scanner. It is suggested that you only turn this on
when instructed by Kodak support personnel.

- File prefix: the scanner will apply the entered text to the
beginning of each file created. This can be used to more easily
find and sort the saved images.

- Held in memory: if scanning a large job and you only need to
save the last few images, then turn this on by selecting the
number of images you want to save.

NOTE: Turning this on will use more PC memory.
