Features of the ArtixScan DI 4020
The ArtixScan DI 4020 comes with several important features, including the following:
• Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) — The high-capacity ADF for the ArtixScan
DI 4020 holds up to 100 sheets of paper, supporting dimensions from 2.75" x 2.75"
up to 8.5" x 14" (legal size).
• Duplex scanning support — With the use of the ADF, both sides of a document
can be scanned with the scanner.
• Automatic paper loading — Paper put in the Document Feed Tray of the ADF is
automatically sensed by the scanner, and the tray automatically rises to the
correct position in preparation for scanning.
• Hi-Speed USB port — Hi-Speed USB is capable of data transfer rates of up to 480
MB/sec, providing the high data transfer rate via the included Hi-Speed USB
cable.
• Three programmable function buttons — The programmable function buttons on
the front panel of the scanner provide you with an intuitive and easy way to
access scanner functions.
• New and Advanced Microtek ScanW izard DI software — All-in-one control panel
offers a host of features and image adjustment controls. Supporting the TWAIN
driver, ScanWizard DI also features full document scanning tools and on-screen
proofing. Its multi-scanning area and preview option allow you to obtain quick
scans in the preview window. It comes out several distinguished advantages:
– Paper count : The paper count allows user to keep track of all scan actions
from both flatbed and ADF. This feature helps to estimate when you may need
to replace the rubber or separation pad, or to apply maintenance and service to
your scanner, making the use of your
scanner more effectively .
– Save multiple images as a single file : This advanced feature allows user to
save multiple scanned images as a single file, depending on the number of the
scanned images that are defined for document archival.
– Auto-crop and auto-deskew : The auto-crop function automatically detects
the size of the original image, crops the full scan frame to fit the image, and
removes unwanted black borders. The auto-deskew function automatically
corrects distorted images for proper alignment.
– Color dropout : Red, green and blue colors can be dropped out to allow for
clearer and more accurate forms processing with problematic color documents.
2 ArtixScan DI 4020 Supplement
– Preset Setting : This feature allows you to save the pre-defined scanning
values, and then retrieve them later for scanning same types of materials,
which brings fast and convenient access for users.
– Document Enhancement : This feature brings out and improves the readability
of text in a document that includes other elements such as color, pictures, or
graphs.

Positioning Your Documents
This section shows you how to position a single-sheet document, as well as a stack
of documents.
To position a single-sheet document (such as a single photograph or a page from a
book):
Raise the scanner lid, and place the document to be scanned face down on the
scanner glass surface. Place the top end of the document towards the back of the
scanner, then lower the scanner lid on the scanner glass surface.
When scanning, the rear glass
surface should be kept clear and
free of obstruction at all times.
With the document face down on
the scanning glass, align the
document against the Horizontal
Ruler of the scanner.
To position a stack of documents:
Pull out the Feed Tray Extender, and load the stack of originals onto the Document
Feed Tray, with the side to be scanned facing up. Push the stack of papers onto the
tray until the papers' edges touch the front edge of the Document Feed Tray.
ArtixScan DI 4020 Supplement 5
Scanning Scenarios
The following pages provide various scenarios for scanning with the
ArtixScan DI 4020, including the following:
• Scanning a single-sheet document. This scenario can also be your first scan in
order to familiarize yourself with scanning basics.
• Scanning a stack of documents. This scenario utilizes the ADF to scan a stack of
documents.
• Scanning multiple scan frames. This scenario lets you scan as many scan frames
as you wish and set as many different scan frame attributes as you require. The
sample scenario uses a document with mixed text and pictures to illustrate the
creation of a main scan frame along with other subframes.
• Scanning for archiving. This scenario utilizes the ADF to scan documents for
archiving.
• Scanning for copying. This scenario utilizes the ADF to send documents to your
printer.
• Scanning for OCR. This scenario utilizes the OCR function to scan a text
document and convert it to a fully editable text file.

Before you use the ADF extensively, you may wish to use the “Preview” feature
Previewing can be useful to see if the physical mechanism in your ADF is working properly in
conjunction with the ScanWizard DI scanning software. Previewing requires only the use of a single
sheet of paper (with some text or material on it). Once the paper-scanning mechanism is established
and verified, you can then proceed to use the ADF extensively and with assurance.
To do the preview, follow the steps below:
1. Load a piece of paper from the paper stack into the ADF’s Document Feed Tray.
2. Click the
image appears in the preview window.
At this moment, the previewed page is delivered to the document tray from the ADF's Document Feed
Tray. Load the previewed page, along with the paper stack to be scanned, on the ADF's Document Feed
Tray. You are now ready to scan.

Care and Cleaning
T o ensure optimal performance from the ArtixScan DI 4020, it is important to clean
several critical parts of the scanner on a regular basis.
Cleaning the Scanner Glass Surface

Maintenance
The separation pad assembly and the feed-roller assembly in your Automatic
Document Feeder (ADF) are designed to make document feeding smooth. After
usage for a period of time, the separation pad assembly and feed-roller assembly may
become worn, and a problem such as a document double-feed may occur. In this
case, check either the separation pad assembly or the feed-roller assembly , and
replace them if needed. Follow the procedure below for replacement of the separation
pad assembly and feed-roller assembly .
Note: A black separation pad assembly comes installed with the ArtixScan DI 4020
for use with scanning paper that weigh from 16 to 30 lbs. An additional black
separation pad assembly also comes with your scanner package for replacement.
The recommended replacement point for the two separation pad assemblies is
approximately 30,000 sheets. Take note that the additional separation pad you
received depends on the configuration of the scanner purchased.
Replacing the Separation Pad Assembly
1. Push the button at the top of the ADF, then move the cover of the ADF up to see
the separation pad assembly, as indicated in the graphic below.
2. With the cover fully opened, use
your fingers to nip off the
separation pad assembly and pull
it out from its compartment.

Notice to ArtixScan
Come with your scanner, the ScanWizard DI scanning software in the Microtek CD (ArtixScan DI 4020
CD) includes the scanner ICC profile data which is exclusively created for each scanner unit to keep
image colors consistent when performing a duplex scanning.
The scanner ICC profile data is stored with profile (color characteristic information) unique to the scanner
you purchased; it should be installed in your system after you finish the installation of the ScanWizard
DI scanning software. We strongly recommended that you reserve the Microtek CD forever, or directly
backup the scanner ICC profile data from the Microtek CD into your computer in order to keep the image
colors consistent when you have a need to upgrade or reinstall the ScanWizard DI in the future from the
Microtek web site.
Before performing scanner ICC profile data backup, check first if the Serial Number (S/N barcode) labeled
on the Microtek CD is same as that Serial Number (S/N barcode) labeled on the rear of the ArtixScan DI
4020 scanner. If the numbers are different, please contact the Microtek Customer Service Department.
