Utilizing Scanned Documents

Depending on your needs, you may save your scanned documents into the
following purposes.

Scanning for Archiving

The archiving function allows the scanner to scan documents for recording
purposes. For instance, an image “record” can be kept of multiple-page
documents or of other important documents, such as birth certificates and tax
records.

1. Load the documents to be scanned into the ADF's Document Feed Tray.

2. Launch ScanWizard DI in stand-alone mode by clicking the program icon on
the desktop.

3. Follow the procedure (steps 3 through 6) for “Scanning a Stack of
Documents” to specify your scanning requirements.

4. Click the Custom Scan button and select Save to File to open the “Custom
Scan-Save to File” dialog box.

In the “Custom Scan-Scan to File” dialog box, specify the following settings:

a) Key in your preferred file name in

the “File prefix” edit box, or use
the default “Image” as a root file
name.

b) Select your required export file

format. Save the file as TIF, PDF,
or DCX, which enables the “Save
multiple images as a single file”
option in the next step.

c) Check the “Save multiple images

as a single file” option to store all
the scanned images as a single
file if desired.

If you scan the documents
through the ADF and enable
“Save multiple images as a single
file”, you are allowed to specify
how many images you would like
to be saved in a single file after scan.

Check the “Every %image(s) into a file “ option, and then enter your
desired number in the edit box directly or click the up/down arrow to
increase/decrease the number. The range is from 2 to 100 images.

34 ArtixScan DI 5230/5240/5250/5260 & ArtixScan TS 540T User's Manual

5. Click the Save button to start the scanning.

If the “Save multiple images as a single file” option is checked, when the
scanning is finished, ScanWizard DI will prompt you a window to ask if you
want to place the next page. Click the Continue button to scan or click the
Done button to save multiple images as a single file.

When the Barcode Separator function is
checked, the “Scan To: Save As” dialog
box should look like the one as shown
below. The “Auto filename” option will be
replaced by the “Save Barcode as
Directory”.

Save Barcode as Directory: If “Save
Barcode as Directory” is checked, the value
of the scanned barcode is saved and used
as a file directory. If unchecked, the value
of the scanned barcode is saved and used
as a file’s name.

When “Save Barcode as Directory” is
checked, you have to assign at least one of
the “File Prefix” or ”Serial No.” to be your
output filename. They cannot be null at
the same time.

The saved file can be viewed from the default folder (or your selected folder).

If “Save Barcode as Directory ”is unchecked and if you do not assign either one of
the “File Prefix” or “Serial No.” to be a file’s name, the new saved file will
overwrite the old one.

NOTE: No matter if you check “Save Barcode as Directory” or not, it is strongly
recommended to check “Serial No.” in order to add it as part in your file’s name.
For if you do so, the system will automatically generate a sequential number based
on when the file is saved. Otherwise, if you do not do so, when you scan another
document with the same barcode value as that on the old one and you forget to
name it in different file prefix, the new scanned document will overwrite the old
one immediately.

Troubleshooting

The green LED lighting (the SCAN/STOP button) indicates the status of the
scanner. The orange LED lighting (the POWER button) stands for power and
should always stay on steady when the scanner is on.

First, make sure that you have followed Steps 1 to 5 as described in the “Initial
Setup” section of this document (unpack, install, connect). Then if your problem
is listed here, try the suggested solution.

1. No light comes on when the scanner is already supplied with power.

Make sure your scanner is connected to your computer and plugged into a
power source.

2. The Add/Remove Hardware Wizard appears on your screen.

Click the “Cancel” button and close the ScanWizard DI or ScanPotter Control
Panel. Disconnect the Hi-Speed USB cable from the back of your computer,
and refer to the installation instructions in this document.

3. After clicking scan, a blank screen appears.

Uninstall and reinstall the ScanWizard DI or ScanPotter software.

4. The scanner cannot pick up papers into the feeder.

Make sure the sheets of papers loaded in the Document Feed Tray do not
exceed the thickness limit.

Check if the Separation Pad becomes worn and needs to be changed.

5. When trying to scan, an error message appears on your screen that reads,
“Can’t Find Scanners”.

Make sure your scanner is connected to your computer and plugged in to a
power source (see Step 4 in the “Initial Setup” section).

Uninstall and reinstall the ScanWizard DI or ScanPotter software.

All On: Ready to scan.

Flashing Green: Scanning.

All Off: Scanner is off.

6. When trying to scan, an error message appears on your screen that reads,
“ADF is not ready or no paper”.

Make sure there are papers in the Document Feed Tray.

Make sure the top edges of papers have been inserted into the feeder.

Finally, close the ADF cover and restart scanning.

7. When trying to scan, an error message appears on your screen that reads,
“Code -206, ADF paper jam or roller failure.”

Click OK first; then open the ADF cover, as illustrated in the pervious section
“Fixing Paper Jams”.

• If the problem is occurring from a paper jam, follow the procedures laid

out in the “Fixing Paper Jams” section.

• If the problem is occurring from situations other than a paper jam, follow

the procedures laid out in the “Position Documents” section.

Finally, close the ADF cover and restart scanning.

8. Ink stains or strips appear on the scanned images.

Clean the glass surface areas with a soft, non-abrasive and lint-free cloth.

Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth or a swab moistened with alcohol or
ECO cleaner.
