Save Format

All scans are saved to JPEG format. Use the included Presto! PageManager software to convert the JPG files to other file formats, including PDFs, if desired.

Color Mode

All scans are in color mode.

Scan Resolution

The scan resolution is measured in DPI (dots per inch). The higher the DPI, the more details on the original are captured by the scanner, producing a higher quality scanned image; however, a higher DPI also results in a larger image size and occupies more storage space.

The scanner offers three resolution modes, indicated by the color of the Power button

Green

300 DPI

Normal resolution (default)

Orange

600 DPI

Fine resolution

Red

1200 DPI

Best resolution

To change the scanning resolution, press until the button changes to the color corresponding to the desired resolution.

Scanner Status Indicators

The Power button indicates the scanner status by displaying either a solid or flashing color, depending on the action, as specified below.

 When the Power button is dark, the scanner has been powered off.

Built-in disk or memory card full (flash color depends on DPI setting) or scanned page exceeds allowable length

Storage Capacity

Built-in Disk

The scanner’s built-in disk has approximately 128MB of memo ry that can be used to store images. If a memory card is

not

Memory Card

inserted, scanned files will automatically be

stored on the built-in disk until it is recognized as full (i.e., less than 2MB remaining for

the 300 DPI setting, less than 5MB remaining for the 600 DPI setting, and less than 15MB remaining for the 1200 DPI setting). When the built-in disk is full, you can insert a

memory card to continue scanning or move your scanned images from the built-in disk to a folder on your computer.

MicroSD™ (with adapter) and standard SDHC memory cards up to 32GB are compatible with the scanner. Using a memory card is recommended for additional storage capacity; the scanner’s built-in disk will fill up quickly if you are scanning a collection of items or scanning at a higher resolution. The number of images that can be stored on a memory card varies by original size and resolution sett i ng, but the table below shows the estimated average number of images that can be stored on a 2GB memory card:

Folder Structure

The following folder structure is created automatically on the built-in disk and on the memory card when the first item is scanned to each storage area:

Built-in Disk

PD_SCAN [drive letter] DCIM 100PHOTO

PDI_0001.jpg

 If no memory card is inserted, scanned items are saved to the built-in disk automatically.

If a memory card

Removable Disk [drive letter] DCIM 100PHOTO

PDI_0001.jpg

 Refer to the “After a Successful Connection” section on page 12 for illustrations of the

folder structure for scans saved to both the built-in disk and the memory card.

inserted, the scanned files are saved to the card.

A new folder is automatically created when the previous folder is filled, per the following example:

100PHOTO = filled 101PHOTO = created with next scan 101PHOTO = filled 102PHOTO = created with next scan

Scanned Image File Naming Convention

Each scanned image is given a file name with the prefix PDI_ followed by a 4- digit sequential number in the order the images are stored (for example,

PDI_0001.JPG, PDI_0002.JPG, and

so forth).

Considerations for all Scanning

 Inserting a memory card before scanning is recommended for large scanni ng projec ts so that

you don’t have to stop at frequent intervals to move the scanned files from the built-in disk to a memory card or to a folder on your computer.

 Do not remove the memory card or disconnect the power supply while a scan is in process.  Keep the original flat and level when feeding to prevent possible jamming.  For optimum scanned image quality, keep originals free from fingerprints, oil, dirt, and dust.  The feeder’s sensor is triggered when you begin to insert an original aligned against the left

edge of the feed slot. The original begins to automatically feed, hesitates and then completes the scan.

 To prevent poor cropping:

 Align the original straight against left edge of the feeder slot.  Align the Guide Slide against the right edge of the original.  Ensure there is enough space behind the scanner for the original to completely feed through.

 Scanning the same original in different orientations may produce scanned images that look

slightly different in color tones and brightness. This is not a malfunction.

 If the mem ory card is full, the indicator light begins to flash (color depends on DPI setting). Use

another card or clear space on the full card.

 The scanner accepts memory cards in FAT16 or FAT32 file system

only

 This scanner supports output images in JPG format only.

. NTFS and other file

systems are not supported.

Suitable and Unsuitable Original Types

Suitable

The scanner is designed to obtain the best scanning results with the following types of originals:

 Phot os (from 3”x5”, 4”x6”, 5”x7”, up to A4/Lett er size)  Bus i ness cards (standard 3.5”x2” (8.9x5cm) or larger)

Unsuitable

Do not use the following types of originals for scanning, or the scanner may malfunction or cause the original to jam in the slot.

 Originals thicker than 1.0mm  Originals with either side shorter than 55mm  Original s with lots of black or dark colors  Original s with dark colors s urrounding the edges  Printed media (newspapers, magazines, etc.)  Soft and thin m aterials (t hi n paper, cloth, etc.)  Originals that exceed 14 inches long and 8.5 inches wide.

Getting Started

Using a Protective Sleeve (Optional)

We recommend using a 5”x7” protective sleeve for your older, fragile photos and when scanning originals smaller than 2”x2”. The protective sleeves also help to elimi nate the possibility of de-focusing due to the uneven surface of curled photos. Fo r information on obtaining protective sleeves, contact Customer Support at www.sunglow.net.

 Remove photos from the sleeve after scanning to prevent the sleeve from sticking to the

photos over time.

 When not in use, store protective sleeves in a safe place and keep them protected from

accumulating dust.

 When using a protective sleeve, you may want to perform additional manual cropping on

the scanned image to achieve your desired final image. Use the Presto! PageManager or bonus graphics editing software on the included CD or use your own graphic editing software.

Using the Scanner

CAUTION: Insert only one original at a time, and insert the next original only when

the previous one is completed; otherwise the feeder may malfunction.

CAUTION: Do not sc an glossy photos in environments with humidity higher than 70%

RH or the surface of the photo may becom e sticky and cause the feeder to jam.

 The orientation in which the item is inserted is the orientation that will be displayed on

your computer screen.

 Scanning the same original in different orientati ons may produce scanned images that

look slightly different in color tones and brightness. This is not a malfunction.

1. Optionally, ins ert a memory card to increase storage capacity.

2. Connect the flat end of the USB cable to the USB power adapter and plug the adapter into an electrical outlet.

3. Insert the microUSB cable

in the slot on the back of the scanner.

4. Press the Power

button to power on the scanner. After powering on, the button

displays as solid green.

5. Press the Power

button to change the DPI setting. The button toggles to 3

settings:

Green = 300 DPI (default when sc anner is powered on)

Orange = 600 DPI

Red = 1200 DPI

6. With the side to be scanned facing up, place the left edge of the original straight

against the left edge of the feed slot, and then slide the guide lever against the right side of the original.

7. Gently push the original into the feed slot; release it as soon as it begins to feed. After the feed begins, the scanner pauses briefly and then continues the feed.

8. Wait until the indicator light stops blinking before inserti ng and scanning the next original.

9. When your scanning is finished, press the Power

button for 3 seconds to turn

scanner OFF.

 When the scanner is left idle for 3 minutes, the default Power Save mode

automatically powers off the scanner.

Auto-Crop Feature

The scanner has a built-in cropping function that automatically detects and crops dark edges and dark areas against the cropping baseline background during t he scan process. To prevent poor cropping, align the original straight against the l eft edge of the feeder slot and ensure there is adequate space behind the feeder for the originals to completely feed through. Scanning on a flat and uncluttered surface is recommended. The following example illustrates a 4”x6” original photo scanned with auto-crop and without auto-crop:

Original:

Scanned images:

with auto-crop without auto-crop

 Depending on the shape and size of your original, you may want to perform additional

manual cropping on the scanned image (using the included graphics editing software or your own) to achieve your desired final image.

 If the original is fed slightly crooked, the original is only cropped a pre-defined maximum

amount, as shown in the following illustration:

 When scanning darker originals, over-cropping may occur (see example below of night

sky photo). Please insert the original in a different direction (orientation) and try again.

Connecting the S canner to a Computer

Frequently Asked Questions

Before contacting Customer Support, you may find answers to your questions below. This FAQ contains Q&A for both the scanner and the Presto! PageManager software.

Q: Why doesn’t my scanner power on?

Scanner

A: Ensure the microUSB cable is securely connected to the scanner and to either the USB slot in

your computer or a USB power adapter connected to an electrical outlet.

Q: Why doesn’t my computer recognize my scanner when it’s connected via USB cable?

A: Make sure the cable is undamaged and securely connected. Restart the computer if necessary.

Q: Ho w can I tell whether the scanner is scanning at 300DPI, 600DPI or 1200DPI?

A: The color of the Power button light indicates the selected resolution: Green = 300 DPI,

Orange = 600 DPI, Red = 1200 DPI. Press the Power button to change the resolution.

Q: Is it safe to feed old and fragile photos into the feeder?

A: We recommend using a 5”x7” protective sleeve (not included) for all old and fragile photos.

Contact Customer Support at

www.sunglow.net/support for inform ation on obtaini ng protecti ve

sleeves.

Q: What should I do if the status indicator blinks rapidly and no scan is possible?

A: Check the following:

 Is t he scanner’s built-in dis k full? Connect the scanner to a computer to move or delete files.

The scanner recognizes the built-in disk as “full” and the Power button blinks when it has less than 2MB remaining for 300 DPI setting, less than 5MB for 600 DPI setting, and less than 15MB for 1200 DPI setting).

 Is the memory card full? The Power button blinks when the free space on the memory card

is below 15MB. Use another card if necessary.

 Is the memory card inserted properly into the m emory card slot? Re-insert the card and try

again. Make sure the memory cards are in FAT or FAT32 file formats only, not NTFS or any other file format. Reformat the memory card if necessary to use it with the scanner.

 Is there a jam in the feeder? Power the scanner off and then on again to continue the sheet

feed. If the item is still jammed, open the cover and gently pull out the item.

 Is the cover open? Make sure the cover is snapped firmly in place.  Did you insert t he next original before the sc anni ng process of the previous one was

completed? Turn the scanner off and back on and try again. Make sure that you scan the next original only after the scanning process of the previous one has completed.

 Does t he length of the original exceed the maximum acceptabl e size? Refer to "Suitabl e

and Unsuitable Original Types" on page 7 for more information.

Q: Why aren’t my images saved as I’m scanning them?

A: Either the built-in disk or memory card is full, or your memory card is not inserted properly.

Reinsert the card or clear storage space, as appropriate, and then rescan.

Q: What would cause strange lines on the scanned document or the document is

not clear?

A: Possible causes:

 Scratc hes on the original or the original is not clean. Remove any stains or dust from the

original before scanning.

 The scanner has been used for a long period of time without cleaning. Follow the

instructions for cleaning the scanner in the “Care and Maintenance” secti on on page 22.

Q: What can I do if my images are getting over-cropped, or not getting cropped the way I

expected or prefer?

A: When you feed your original, always be sure you are positioning the original straight and

against the left edge of the feeder slot.

Q: What is the relationship between the orientation of my scan and the final stored image?

A: The orientation of your scanned image should be the same as the original as it was inserted

into the scanner.

Q: Why do all the images I scan have the same date when saved on the memory card?

A: The scanner does not have an internal “clock” to keep real time, so the date and time attributes

are a fixed value assigned during the production of the device. Connecting the scanner to your computer should re-sync the date and time to the correct values.

Q: S hould the scanner feel warm to the touch?

A: It is normal for the scanner to emit a small amount of heat (around 30-45

C) after prolonged

use. However, if there are strange odors coming from the scanner or the scanner feels hot to the touch, power it off immediately and remove the cable from the scanner and the electrical outlet or computer. Refer to the “Important Safety Precautions” section on page 3.

Presto PageManager

A: Follow these steps to sort by name, type, size, date, author, or keyword:

 Click

View and then select Sort.

 Select the preferred sort type.

Q: How can I improve unsatisfactory results after converting a document?

A: Unsatisfactory results may be caused by the following:

 Low scanning res ol ution. Scan the doc um ent at a minimum of 300 DPI and black & white

(line-art).

 The original docum ent was not clear or it was a faxed page.  Multipl e columns or tables were included.

 Ens ure the OCR language is correct in Preferences.
