Kodak PS80, PS50 User Manual

Safety

User Precautions

• Place the scanner on a sturdy, level work surface capable of supporting 5.5 kg (12 lbs).

• Do not install the scanner in a location subject to dust, humidity or steam. This may cause electrical shock or a fire. Only use the scanner and power supply indoors in a dry location.

• Make sure the electrical power outlet is located within 1.52 meters (5 feet) of the scanner and is easily accessible.

• Use only the power cord that was provided with the scanner. Using any other power cord may cause electrical shock and/or damage the product.

• Be sure the power cord is securely plugged into the wall outlet. Failure to do so may cause electrical shock or fire.

• Do not damage, knot, cut or modify the power cord. This may cause electrical shock or fire.

• The scanner requires a dedicated power outlet. Do not use an extension cord or power strip with the scanner.

• Use only the AC adapter that is supplied with the scanner. Do not use the scanner’s AC adapter with any other product.

• Leave sufficient space around the power outlet so it can be easily unplugged in case of an emergency.

• Do not use the scanner if it becomes inordinately hot, has a strange odor, emits smoke, or makes unfamiliar noises. Immediately stop the scanner and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Contact Kodak Service.

• Do not disassemble or modify the scanner or the AC power adapter.

• Do not move the scanner with the power cord and interface cable attached. This may cause damage to the cord/cable. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet before moving the scanner.

Using the scanning features

A-61828 December 2014 3-1

The Kodak Picture Save Scanning System PS50/PS80 Scanner can provide a wide variety of electronic images. This can be done by using the scanning features Kodak provides in concert with your scanning application. The scanning features are part of the capture system which links the scanner to your scanning application.

When using the scanning features, the main 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 “Black and White photos” and whenever you want to scan black and white photos, you simply select that Setting Shortcut.

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

accomplished by opening your application and selecting Scan settings.

1. Click File>Scan Settings to display the Scan Settings screen

Adjustments t ab: 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 (1-bit).

Conversion quality — these settings effect how the scanner analyzes

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

• Best (iThresholding): the scanner analyzes each document or photo to produce the highest quality image. This option allows scanning of mixed documents or photos with varying quality (e.g., faint text, shaded backgrounds, color backgrounds) and when scanning with consistent document or photo 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 or photo sets. You may also want to use this option if you have difficult documents or photos 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 or photos.

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: Best and

Conversion quality: Normal.

3-18 A-61828 December 2014

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. The options range from 0 to 255. The default is 90.

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

Conversion quality: Normal.

Threshold: 50 Threshold: 127

Filters

How to obtain Limited Warranty service

Kodak Scanners are supplied with information on unpacking, setup, installation and operation. Careful reading of the User’s Guide will answer most of the technical questions the end user might have regarding proper installation, operati on and maintenance of the product. However, should additional technical support be required, you may visit our website at: www.kodakalaris.com/go/disupport or contact:

Response Center: (800) 822-1414 The Response Center is available Monday – Friday (excluding Alaris holidays) 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. local time. Before placing the call, the eligible purchaser should have the Kodak Scanner model number, part number, serial number and

proof of purchase available. The eligible purchaser should also be prepared to provide a description of the problem. Response Center personnel will assist the end user in resolving the problem over the phone. The end user may be asked to run

some simple, self-diagnostic tests and report the resulting status and error code messages. This will assist the Response Center in determining if the problem is the Kodak Scanner or another component and if the problem can be resolved over the phone. If the Response Center determines a hardware problem exists that is covered either under th e Limited Warranty or a purchased Maintenance Agreement, a Return Material Authorization Number (RMA) will be assigned as needed, a service request will be initiated and repair or replacement procedures will follow.

Packaging and shipping guidelines

Purchaser must ship all warranty returns in a method that guarantees full protection of the product from shipping damage. Failure to do so will void the Kodak Scanner warranty. Alaris advises the purchaser to keep the original box and packing materials for storing or shipping. Alaris is not responsible for issues related to shipping damage. The purchaser must return only the Kodak Scanner. Prior to shipment, purchaser must remove and retain all “add-on” items, (i.e. adapters, cables, software, manuals, etc.). Alaris accepts no responsibility for these items and they will not be returned with the repaired or replacement Kodak Scanner. All products should be returned to Alaris in the original shipping container, or an authorized packaging box for the units being returned. Purchaser must install the shipping restraint before the Kodak Scanner is shipped. When the original packaging is not available, contact Kodak Alaris’ Response Center at (800) 822-1414 for part numbers and replacement packaging ordering information.

Return procedure

Any defective products or parts replaced by Alaris become the property of Alaris.

Customer responsibility
