Scanner features
The Océ CS40xx scanners comprises the following features:
■ Media thickness up to 0.6” (15 mm)
■ Variable resolution in one-dpi increments
■ Individual tone adjustment for each colour channel (RGB) via gamma and
black and white point correction
■ All-digital cameras to ensure minimum noise
■ Colour and monochrome 2-D sharpening and softening filters to enhance
fine details and reduce moiré effects when you scan halftone originals
■ Colour calibration using the ANSI IT-8 colour reference chart to improve
long term stability of the scanner colour balance, linearity and chromaticity
■ ICC (International Colour Consortium) profile to support Colour
Management Systems (CMS)
■ Colour feature extraction to enhance clarity from poor quality originals and
improve details in complex maps and drawings.
■ Support monochrome graytone capture of 12 bits passing the best 8 bits to
the computer to enhance graytone precision.
■ Monochrome scanner functions.
■ Scanning modes from true colour (24-bit RGB) to black and white.
Introduction7
Operating modes
The Océ CS40xx scanners scanners scans documents in the following colour
and black and white modes:
24 bit RGB colour mode This mode scans ima ges at the full 2 4-bit true co lour
mode for 16.8 million colours.
Indexed colour mode When you scan documents with a limited range of
colours, th is mode maps true colou rs to a n inde xed co lour p alette. T he sc anner
generates this colour palette automatically when it does an adaptive colour
prescan of the original.
The scanner’s ability to transform a true colour image from 16.8 million
colours down to 16 or 256 colours greatly reduces the data volume. At the same
time, the scan speed increases and the disk storage requirements decrease
(needing only 4 bits or 8 bits per pixel, compared with the 24 bits required in
true colour mode).
Feature extracted (classified) colour mode This mode us es colour mapping
to sort the observed colour features in a document and to classify them into
categories using a colour LUT (look up table). Y ou can generate this LUT once
and download it to the scanner for a similar class of documents. Colour
mapping can improve details in complex maps or drawings, while increasing
the scan speed and minimizing disk storage requirements.
Grayscale mode (256 levels) This mode scans the actual gray level of each
pixel, up to 256 levels. Each pixel corresponds to 1 byte (8 bits). The images
scanned in grayscale mode result in files that are 8 times larger than
uncompressed files scanned in lineart mode at the same resolution.
B/W modes (bitmapped, 2-level) This mode reproduces each scanned pixel as
a single bit, either black (1) or white (0), depending on whether its gray level
lies below or above the threshold level. This mode supports both fixed level
and 2-D adaptive thresholding.
B/W copy mode (halftone dither) Converts gray levels of the scanned pixels
into halftones by dithering. This results in very high density line mode files that
are much larger than uncompressed files scanned in line mode at the same
resolution.

SCSI installation
On PC-DOS or compatible computers running Windows 98/ME/2000/XP or
Windows NT 4.0, you must first install the SCSI board before you connect the
scanner to your computer.
SCSI connection precautions
■ Power off your system, your scanner, and all peripheral devices before you
connect or disconnect SCSI cables. Failure to do this may result in a system
crash and, in some cases, destruction of data on your hard disk.
■ If the scanner is the last device on the SCSI bus, turn on the built-in active
SCSI terminator (switch 4). Otherwise make sure you turn this switch off. Do
not connect any other terminator on the unused SCSI connector, since switch
4 already specifies termination.
■ The total length of all SCSI cables must be less than 4 meters.
SCSI board installation
Attention: Use only t he SCS I boa rd provided wit h the s c ann er. Do n ot
connec t an y o th er SC SI dev ice t o t he sa me S C S I bo a rd.

Scanning thick media
Manual adjustment for thick media
You can adjust the insertion thickness space from 0 to 15 mm (0 to .6”) to
accommodate thick media such as paper board, foam boards, etc.
When you use this setting, keep in mind the following:
■ Extended media thickness reduces the scanning speed. The normal setting
(0) gives the optimal scanning speed.
■ Extend ed medi a thic kne ss can cause v ar ia tion s in th e st itch in g (o ve rl app in g
or missing pixels). You can compensate this problem by using a special
stitching setup from the Océ Scan software. (See Océ Scan Online Guide for
details).
■ Insert the document center-aligned, and support it during the scanning
process.
■ T o prevent image distortion, the scanner by default does not scan leading and
trailing edges of a document with thick media setting. You can turn off this
function from the Océ Scan software.

perform scanner maintenance. This is the Scanner Maintenance Kit.
The Scanner Maintenance Kit includes:
■ the scanner maintenance software
■ the scanner maintenance leaflets
■ a single maintenance sheet
■ a protective dust cover
■ a special cleaning cloth
Thanks to the Scanner Maintenance Kit and especially the Scanner
maintenance software, checking camera alignment and performing calibration
on the Océ CS40xx scanners is much easier and almost automatic.
The scanner maintenance procedure is divided into three consecutive tasks:
■ Cleaning
■ Camera alignment
■ Calibration
The Scanner maintenance wizard will guide through these different steps.
Note: For more details, please refer to the scanner maintenance leaflet
provided in the Scanner Maintenance Kit.

Camera alignment
Following the scanner installation, you carry out an initial camera alignment
from the Scanner maintenance software. Thereafter, you only need to perform
this alignment depending on your needs after repeated scanning.
You must let the scanner reach the appropriate operating temperature before
making this adjustment (2 hours after you switch on the scanner). This
operation requires the
Maintenance Kit.
■ some models have a single fixed camera. Therefore, they do not require
camera alignment. The maintenance wizard will automatically detect the
scanner model and skip the camera alignment step.
■ Some models have two cameras, A, B starting from the right side of the
scanner. One is fixed and the other is adjustable.
The procedure below requires that you have installed the Scanner maintenance
software before.
scanner maintenance sheet provided in the Scanner
▼To check the camera height (only for 2 and 4-cameras models)
1
Switch on the scanner and wait two hours for it to reach the optimal
temperature.
2 From the Windows ‘Start’ menu, select ‘Programs’ and start ‘Scanner
maintenance’. The maintenance wizard is launched.
3 Click ‘Next’.
4 Insert t he scanne r maintenance sheet face down into the scanner, lining up the
arrow at the center insertion point. The program immediately analyses the
alignment and stitching of the cameras. If cameras are unaligned, the program
will automatically make the necessary corrections.
5 Once the camera alignment is checked, the program moves automatically to
basic calibration.
Basic calibration ensures stable and clean scans by reducing noise and
unwanted effects caused by dust particles.
This operation still requires the use of the scanner maintenance sheet. The
program performs autaomatically the basic calibration and then moves to
Colour calibra tion to ensure lon g term stability of the linearity, colour balance ,
and chromacity of your scans. You need to repeat this operation only about
once every two months of continuous scanning, or when the quality of scanned
colours becomes unsatisfactory.
