Figure 5.6: Main viewer
The main viewer serves to display the document scanned last and/or a loaded image file.
Numerous zoom functions allow zooming of individual areas. For this purpose, you can highlight
an area within the displayed image by pressing and holding the left mouse key down. This area
will then be enlarged. The viewer includes the following components:
1. Image display area: Preview / detailed view
2. Toolbar of viewer (see Chapter 5.8, Page 41)
3. Status bar: Display of useful information on the depicted image (resolution, dimensions,
color mode, etc.)
5.5 Main Viewer
Page 40

As soon as you make changes in the Settings (Page 44) affecting the appearance of the image
(e.g. brightness, color mode, etc.), the view is updated automatically in the viewer so as to see the
effects of the settings immediately.
Figure 5.7: Interaction General Viewer - Main Viewer
The small viewer (1) embedded at the bottom on the right serves to keep track of the position in
the complete image when using the zoom functions of the main viewer (3)
The General Viewer is linked with the main viewer in a way that the section shown in the main
viewer is always highlighted by a red frame (2) in the overview viewer.
Now, you can "grab" this frame by means of the mouse and move it to another position to show
another area in the main viewer.
If you want to display a smaller or bigger section in the main viewer, you can also "grab" the four
edges of the viewer and shift them.
The General Viewer is deactivated in the touchscreen optimized version (see Chapter
5.15).
5.6 General Viewer
Page 41

Figure 5.6: Toolbar with action keys
In the toolbar on the bottom right side of the ROWE SCAN APP, there are keys which are linked
to the most important functions required to use the ROWE Scan 450i. By means of these keys you
can start a scan job or print a document on a printer.
1.
Start
: By means of this key you initiate the action linked to the function – depending of
the selected function.
In the function "Scan" you therewith start the scan operation and subsequent
saving in a file.
In the function "Copy" you therewith start the scan operation and subsequent
printing.
2.
Stop
: By means of this key you can interrupt a scan in process. The scanner then stops
paper feed immediately.
Action keys
Start
and
Stop
have the same functions as the green and red key on the
scanner's control panel.
3.
Prescan
: Execution of a prescan. The prescan behavior can be affected by the
Settings
:
Normal prescan
: The scan is effected as in case of actuation of the start key.
However, there is
no output
. You are thereby given the opportunity to edit the
scanned image before output. After having effected the requested editing steps,
simply press action key (5) to start output on the basis of the selected settings.
Fast prescan: A fast scan with reduced resolution is effected and shown in the
viewer. Afterwards, the original is transported back and you are asked whether you
want to select a scan section. Afterwards, you can select with the mouse an area in
the preview the dimensions and position of which are set automatically as userdefined format. When pressing the
Start
key afterwards, this selected area is
scanned and output, only.
4.
Batch scan
: The so-called batch scan function can be switched ON and OFF. If the batch
scan is activated, the scan starts automatically as soon as an original is positioned in the
paper feed of the scanner. Pressing the
Start
key is thus not required anymore. This
option is very useful when you want to scan/copy many documents with equal settings.
5.7 Action Keys
Page 42
41
5.
Save/print
: Depending on the selected function, action key (5) is labeled "Save" (Function
Scan
) or "Print" (Function
Copy
). In both cases, output is initiated by pressing the key –
either in a file or on a printer. You need this key when you want to
edit the image and/or settings after the scan (prescan, edit, output) and/or
perform the output again, perhaps with different settings.
Figure 5.7: Toolbar above Main Viewer
The toolbar above the Main Viewer includes the following buttons:
1.
General view
: Shows complete image in Viewer. This button is particularly useful if you
selected a section for being zoomed before and now want to return to the general view.
2.
Manual shift
: The currently displayed detail can be shifted in all directions by means of
the mouse; however, a section needs to be zoomed in before. Manual shift does not
work if the
Enhanced cutting function
is active.
3.
Arrow keys
: The currently displayed detail can be shifted in the respective direction if a
section has been zoomed in before.
4.
Zoom +/-
: Zooming a detail shown in the Viewer in or out.
5.
Expanding detail
: By means of this button you define the behavior of the display of a
detail when you expand a detail by means of the mouse: If the button is active (orange
frame)
at least
the selected detail is always displayed in the Viewer so that the area of
the Viewer is filled best. If you want only the selected area to be displayed, activate 5.
6.
Cut detail
: Similar to 4., but
exactly
the selected detail is displayed in the Viewer. The
detail is then enlarged in a way that either the entire width or the entire height of the
Viewer is used.
7.
High Quality Modus (HQ)
ON/OFF: You can select whether the image shall be displayed
in a higher quality in the Viewer. In particular, when processing drawings with very fine
structures, they are possibly not displayed completely in the Viewer (in particular in the
General View) as the image has to be scaled down to "fit" into the Viewer. The HQ mode
reduces this effect considerably but results in the fact that it takes a little bit longer until
the picture is fully displayed.
5.8 Toolbar of Main Viewer
Page 43
42
For originals without fine structures or photos you do not normally see any difference
between HQ and normal mode.
8.
Load image
: By means of this button you can load an image file saved on your computer
into the Viewer and edit it instead of scanning an original.
When loading an image file, the image displayed in the Viewer before gets lost
because it is not possible to open several files in the Viewer simultaneously. However,
you can save the image first (see 5.7).
9.
Enhanced cutting function
: By means of this function you can easily cut the edges of an
image and position cutting edges pixel by pixel. When you activate the button, red lines
appear on the four sides in Main Viewer which are first located on the outside. Now, you
can "grab" these lines by means of the mouse and pull them into the image. When you
start the output now, you are asked whether you want to output the marked detail or
the entire image.
The advantage of this function when compared to function
Cut detail
(5) mainly is the
fact that you can set four cutting edges while zooming any detail in. This is how you
can position edges precisely – in particular for large-sized drawings.
This function can only be with the ROWE EDIT PROFESSIONAL APP.
10.
Reset width detection
: This function allows to deactivate automatic width detection for
the scan effected before. This function is particularly useful if the scanned document is
damaged resulting in a failure of the automatic width detection. In this way, you can
prevent contents from getting lost without having to scan the document again and/or
select another scan format. When pressing this button the image is displayed in the
same width as if you had selected the option
"Auto (Sensor)"
under
Scan format
. E.g.,
you can then cut the image manually using the
Enhanced cutting function (8)
if
requested. Further information on width detection and scan format can be found in
Chapter 5.10.3.3 on Page 58.
11.
Delete image
: Here you can delete the currently displayed image from the Viewer. The
image is now being removed from the Viewer, i.e. it does not get lost if it was already
saved as file.
12.
Undo and Repeat
: By means of this tool you can undo the last activities. Actions undone
before can be repeated only!
A document CANNOT be loaded into the Viewer again with this tool! However, any
Page 44
43
type of modification such as black correction can be undone and/or repeated.
Figure 5.8 Toolbar under Main Viewer
The toolbar under the Main Viewer provides functions for image editing and measuring of
distances or areas.
1.
Vertical mirroring On / Off
: Mirror entire image along vertical axis.
2.
Invert On / Off
: Invert entire image. For gray scales and B/W light and dark are inverted;
for RGB a negative is created.
3.
Rotation
: Set orientation of entire image in steps of 90°.
Auto
: The best rotation is determined automatically for output. For "Scan to File" a
rotation is not effected; the output on a printer is effected in a space-saving way
depending on the width of the original. In this case, the rotation is not visible in
the Viewer, i.e. the output orientation may be different from that shown in the
Viewer.
0°, 90°, 180°, 270°
: The image is rotated clockwise by a set value. The rotation is
visible immediately in the Viewer. Output is effected as displayed. In case of
output on a printer, an alternative rotation may however occur if a medium with
the appropriate width is not available.
By means of the
arrow keys
(left, right) you can rotate the image in the respective
direction in steps of 90° starting from the current position.
4.
Automatic correction of displacement
: The image is aligned automatically so that a slight
displacement is corrected. In doing so, the orientation is defined automatically on the
basis of the document edges.
5.
Manual correction of displacement
: Manual alignment of image by setting two reference
points. The reference points are set by simple click of the left mouse key onto the
requested image position. In order to exactly reach the requested positions, you can also
use all zoom functions of the Viewer in this mode. After having set the second reference
5.9 Toolbar Editing and Measuring Functions
Page 45
44
point, the image is aligned on the basis of the virtual connection between the two
points. By actuating the button again, you can undo the alignment.
You can perform an alignment on the basis of a horizontal as well as vertical
reference (detected automatically).
6.
Measuring function
: Measuring of a section (distance between two points to be set). The
reference points are positioned as described in 5. After having set the second point, a
dialog box opens where you can read the measured value. Here, you can also select a
unit and define a scale for conversion. E.g. this function is useful when measuring
structures in a construction drawing or map.
7.
Calculate area
: By means of this feature you can calculate the area of any polygon within
a drawing. After having pressed the button, you can define the polygon by clicking on
any number of points using the left mouse key.
The last point of the polygon is defined by a
double click
.
This function is available with ROWE EDIT PROFESSIONAL APP, only.
8.
Edit image:
This function provides numerous image editing options. After actuating the
button, the image and/or selected detail is loaded into an external editor. First you are
asked whether you want to embed or link the image. You can simply press "OK" in this
dialog box. With the editor you can now edit the image using the available options. After
having edited the image, you simply close the editor. Now, you are asked whether you
want to save the edited image. Press "Save". Afterwards, the changes are applied
automatically to the image in Viewer.
When loading the image into the editor, tasks such as rotating, mirroring, and
inverting are not considered. However, the steps effected in the editor are effected in
the respective positions.
This function is available with ROWE EDIT PROFESSIONAL APP, only.

Figure 5.23: Color mode
One of the most important settings is the color mode.
1. Selection of
Color
(RGB) and
gray scale
and/or
black/white
. The following scan is effected
in the mode set here.
If you effected a gray scale and/or black/white scan and switch to color later, the
image is, however, displayed in gray scale in the Viewer.
2.
Set type of original:
Here, you can easily achieve the best quality for many different types
of originals by selecting the condition of the scanned original. Specially optimized
settings are then selected to achieve the best possible result.
Select "
Line"
if the original exclusively includes line structures and/or homogenous
areas (e.g. CAD drawings).
Select "
Photo
“ if the original includes complex structures and color gradients (e.g.
photos, posters, etc.).
Select "
Mixed
“ if the original includes line structures as well as color gradients.
More
: Behind this button there are more special document types in addition to
"
Line
“, "
Photo
“, and "
Mixed
" (e.g. optimization for maps, etc.).
If you are not sure to which original type a document is to be allocated, you can test
which settings meet your requirements best as the display in the Viewer is updated
immediately with the selected mode. You do not have to scan the document again.
If you scan a special original which does not match any of the available settings, you
can perform further individual modifications in the expert mode (see 5.10.3.2 ).
5.10.3.1 Color Mode
Page 55
54
Figure 5.24: Quality settings
Here, you can select settings affecting the quality of the scanned originals.
1.
Resolution
: Selection of the resolution to be used for the next scanning operation. The
selection has to be made
before
the scan.
In case of the available "Turbo modes", a lower scanning resolution is used in feeding
direction and afterwards interpolation is affected. A significantly higher speed is
achieved thereby. In the selected optical resolution, the original is scanned
perpendicular to the feed direction so that interpolation is effected in feed direction,
only.
2.
Brightness
: By setting the brightness, the reproduction becomes darker or brighter. In the
text box in the middle you can enter the requested value. By means of the keys on the
left and right, the value can be reduced / increased. Setting range: -127...128 (0: neutral).
3.
Expert mode
: By pressing this button, you access a submenu with numerous further
setting options (see Figure 5.25).
Figure 5.25: Expert mode – Image settings
1.
Image settings/Color settings
: If you switch to "Color settings", you access another
submenu (see Figure 5.26).
5.10.3.2 Quality
Page 56
55
2.
Contrast
: Increase / reduce contrast (setting range -127...128, 0: neutral).
3.
Gamma
: Adjust the gamma curve (setting range 1...25, 17: neutral). This setting should
not be changed because the default value (17) perfectly matches the scanner's color
space.
4.
Background compensation
: This slide control is extremely useful if the background of a
scanned original is not really white. The white of paper normally does not correspond to
exact white in the RGB representation (setting range 0...255, 0: neutral).
In particular for photos you should set the background compensation carefully in
order not to lose any information (e.g. in color gradients). But also in drawings with
lines, information which is very bright can get lost. In case of doubt, simply check the
result in the Viewer.
5.
Sharpening
: By means of this slide control you can increase the sharpness of the image
(setting range 0...255, 0: neutral).
If you select a very high value, slight color fringes may occur at edges in the image.
6.
Smoothing
: By means of this slide control you can smooth angular structures in the
image (setting range 0...255, 0: neutral). In areas with fine structures, information may be
blurred.
7.
Black correction
: Similar to the brightening of the background on white you can turn very
dark areas into black if requested (setting range 0...255, 0: neutral).
8.
Interpolation
: If you want to use another resolution than that used for scanning, you can
set the requested output resolution, here. The image will then be interpolated to this
resolution.
Page 57
56
Figure 5.26: Expert mode – Color settings
1.
Image settings/Color settings
: If you switch to "Image setting", you see the submenu
depicted in Figure 5.25.
2.
Red/ Green/Blue
: By means of these three slide controls, you can shift the weighting of
the three color channels red, green, and blue (R, G, B). E.g., if you want to reduce the red
share in the image, reduce the setting of slide control "
Red
" (setting range 0...255, 127:
neutral).
3.
Gray scale correction
: If there are any gray scales in an image which cannot be presented
in a color neutral way (e.g. greenish cast), you can compensate this deviation by means
of this slide control. When setting a higher value, colors which are almost gray are
switched to the next shade of gray. If the value is very high, also those colors are shifted
to gray which are quite far away from a gray scale. (setting range 0...255, 0: neutral).
4.
Color depth
: In color mode (RGB), the color information is usually coded with 8 bits per
color channel (R, G, and B), i.e. 24 bits per pixel. This may result in relatively large files. In
particular for originals with only a few colors (e.g. CAD drawings), it may be reasonable
to reduce the color depth. This can be achieved by selecting the option "Indexed color".
The color depth is then reduced from 24 to 8 bits per pixel so that 256 colors can be
displayed.
5.
Highlighter optimization
: When scanning originals which are marked with permanent
markers, it may occur that these marks are not shown properly. In order to enhance the
presentation, special optimizations can be enabled. Three degrees of intensity can be
selected (
normal, medium,
and
high
). In most cases, the reproduction of markings with
permanent markers should be ok without any optimization.
Page 58
57
When optimizing markings with permanent marker heavily, other colors of the image
may change slightly, too. You can check the result in the Viewer at any time.
Should some permanent markers not be visible at all (white), reduce the value for
background compensation if applicable. Usually, the brightness of permanent markers
cannot be distinguished from the actual background (white of paper).
6.
ICC profiles:
Select an ICC color space in which the file is to be saved. In general, sRGB is
appropriate. If you want to save a color scan in the device color space of the scanner,
select
None.
7.
Color table:
By means of color replacement tables, defined colors can be replaced by
certain selected colors. This function may be useful to ensure that a logo is shown in a
clearly defined shade.
Page 59

In the field "Scan format", you can determine the dimensions of the
following scan. If you actuate the button as shown in the adjoining
figure, a menu pops up where you can select the following settings:
Auto
: The format is established automatically using the width
detection feature. In most cases, this setting induces the requested
result.
Figure 5.27: Scan format
Autoformat
: The format is established automatically by means of the
width detection feature as in case of "Auto" but afterwards it is
extended to the standard format fitting next. Moreover, the following
options are available:
Orientation Portrait/Landscape:
Select whether the default
format is portrait or landscape.
Fixed format On/Off
: If the fixed format is activated (On),
the length in feeding direction is considered in addition to
the width when adjusting to the default format. Otherwise,
the width is adapted to the default format, only.
The document has to be placed in the center.
If the fixed format is enabled, one part of the information
is cut off if the original is longer than the fixed format to
be adapted on the basis of the detected width.
Figure 5.28: Autoformat
Maximum width
: In case of this setting, the maximum document
width is used. Usually, a margin will then still be visible at the sides
which can be cut off manually afterwards. This option is
recommended for damaged originals if the automatic width
detection is not working properly.

dimension for the scan range in the displayed text fields:
Width
: Scan width in mm
Length
: Scan length in mm
Start at
: Start position in feeding direction from beginning
of document in mm
Zero point
: The zero point is marked in the middle of the
feed table of the scanner. In the default setting, the middle
of the document has to be close to the zero point. By
means of this option, you can shift the reference point for
the middle of the document to the left (negative value) or
right (positive value).

In the area "Scaling/Margins" you can add,
cut off, extend, or reduce margins on the
four sides of a document.
Enter positive values in the four text fields
in order to enlarge the left (1), right (2),
front (3) and/or rear margin (4) (white). If
you want to cut the margin off, simply
enter negative values.
By means of the "Zoom" button, you
access a submenu where you can select
extensive scaling options.

Page size
: Auto (according to set
factor) or scaled to a special
default format (e.g. ISO A4).
Fixed format On/Off
: If the fixed
format is activated (On), the
length in feeding direction is
considered in addition to the
width when scaling to the default
format selected under "Page size".
If the fixed format is enabled, one
part of the information is cut off if
the original is longer than the fixed
format to be scaled to on the basis
of the detected width.
Orientation
: Selection of portrait
or landscape (when scaling to
default format).
Scale Mode
: According to the
three options, the document is
positioned on the printout and/or
adjusted.

5.11.1 Multiprint Favorites
By means of the so-called
number of output devices – and namely with individual print settings for each output device. For
this purpose, you only have to create a Multiprint favorite once. Afterwards, you can perform the
following tasks with only one scan by loading an individual favorite (or pressing the corresponding
numeral key on the device) and by actuating the start key:
Printing a B/W copy on a ROWE printer,
Printing a second color copy on an inkjet printer,
Issuing three more copies on a ROWE printer scaled to ISO A3 including folding,
Saving the scan as TIFF file in a folder with activated background compensation, and
Archiving the scan with standard settings as PDF file.
In order to understand the Multiprint concept, it is first required to logically distinguish the
parameters saved in the favorite by

ROWE Scan 450i scanners can be operated with a desktop computer with mouse and keyboard or
with a touch screen. For touch screen operation, the specially optimized version of ROWE
SCAN/COPY APP is available while the regular version is not intended for touch screen operation
(i.e. without mouse and keyboard).
Appearance and varies only slightly. The decisive difference is that the buttons of the user
interface are much bigger to be able to actuate them better using the finger. As the bigger
buttons require much more space, the General Viewer is not provided (see Chapter 5.6). Figure
5.52 shows the layout.

Figure 6.11: Printer selection
The factors
printer model
and
medium
have a great influence. In the following steps
of creation of a color profile therefore make sure that the appropriate medium is
actually available in the printer.
In order to optimize the color reproduction for a color
printer you can also have a so-called ICC profile be
calculated automatically. For this purpose, select the option
"
Profile printer
" under "
Printer"
. Afterwards, you are
prompted to select the printer to be profiled. The list shows
Figure 6.12: Printer selection
6.5.2 Deleting Printer
6.5.3 Creating a Printer Profile
The color reproduction quality on color printers can be optimized by so-called ICC color profiles.
This optimization is necessary because each printer shows colors differently. Even if directly
comparing two identical printer models, different results may be produced. All in all, the color
reproduction is dependent upon a number of factors, mainly:
1. Printer model but also the device itself,
2. Medium to be printed on (e.g. normal paper, high-gloss photo paper),
3. Age and condition of ink.
In order to achieve a reproducible reproduction of color, ROWE ConfigManager offers the "
loop calibration
target
) about which the precise color values are known. Afterwards, this target is scanned with the
printer and the actual color values of the individual color fields are established. An ICC profile is
then calculated on the basis of the measured data and the reference data which compensates
" option. This means that the printer prints a specific color pattern (a so-called
Closed
"color errors" as well as possible.
Page 90
89
all printers already installed.
In the following dialog select the medium for which you
want to create a profile. As some color printers have several
rolls, you further have to indicate on which roll the medium
can be found.
Make sure that the appropriate medium is actually
available on the selected roll.
Afterwards, enter roll width as well as desired quality level
for the target to be printed. Then press "
Print chart
“.
If your printer has several rolls which are provided
with different media and if you want to create a
profile for further media, you can click "Back"
afterwards and print the target already on the next
medium. When creating a profile later, you can
then skip this step.
Figure 6.13: Selection of paper grade
In the next step, the printed target needs to be scanned.
Allow the target to dry for about one hour, as the
colors may still change during this period.
After the drying time, place the target in the scanner and
click "
Next
". The target is scanned and the ICC profile is
calculated automatically. This process may take a few
minutes.
If you want to optimize the reproduction of the gray scale
of the printer additionally, you can perform a so-called gray
balance optimization. For this purpose, another target which
has been optimized for the gray scale reproduction is
printed and scanned. Simply follow the instructions on the
screen.
Normally, gray balance optimization is not
required. On request you can skip this step.
Afterwards you can complete the process by pressing
"
Finish
".

this connection.
The effect of changed settings may vary depending on the printer model.
Different parameters are available depending on the printer model.
Some options can possibly not be edited.
Figure 6.18: Stamp configuration
With stamps you can integrate user defined graphics and/or texts in your printouts or scanned
files. Those elements are placed onto the sheets as classical stamps. The ConfigManager provides
comprehensive possibilities to create and edit stamps:
Add stamps (see )

Configure stamp (see )
If you are not already logged in as administrator user, you are requested to do so, as
soon as you press one of the buttons (see 6.11).
In order to add, delete and configure stamps you need the ROWE PRINT SPECIALS
APP.
If you desire to create a new stamp, press “Add Stamp”. The
first step is to define the width and height of the new
stamp. After settings the dimensions click “Next”.
Figure 6.19: Stamp size
In the next step specify the parameters of the stamp:
Stamp name: Identifier of the stamp, can be an
arbitrary name without special characters.
Alignment hor./vert.: Specifies the position of the
stamp on the sheet. Can be in relation to header
or centered, top/bottom (resp. left/right).
Offset hor./vert.: An optional offset in relation to
the selected alignment.
Rotation: The rotation of the stamp in 90° steps or
“Auto”.
Extend image: If this option is selected and the
stamp (or a part of it) would be out of the sheet,
then the dimension of the sheet will be extended
respectively. Otherwise the stamp will be cut off
eventually.
Pos. relative to output orientation: If this option is
selected, the stamp will be put onto the sheet not
until the sheet is rotated if applicable. Otherwise
the stamp will be applied before rotation.
After specifying the desired settings press “Apply”. In the
next step an external tool (“inkscape”) will be started in
order to create the actual stamp drawing.

6.7 Scanboxes
"Scanboxes" are directories which can be used to file scans and to access them via the network. In
general, there a two types of scan boxes:
Local scan boxes: The scan directory is located on the device and can be accessed via the
network by way of a Windows access permission.
Remote scan boxes: The scan directory is located on a host in a network which can be
accessed by the printer by way of a Windows access permission.
Figure 6.4: Scanboxes
In order to configure scan boxes, press the button "Scanboxes (Scan-to-File)" in the settings menu.
The wizard depicted in Figure 6.4 is displayed. Just follow the instructions and questions on the
screen to add, delete, or change scan boxes.

Figure 6.22: License options during and after trial phase
If you purchased a new scanner, it is provided with a license which allows you to use all options
for trial purposes first. This
trial
license either expires after 30 days or after 2000 scans –
depending on which limit is reached first. The free features of the trial license can be seen under
Licenses
. There, you also see how long the trial phase will run.
After expiry of the trial phase only those options are left that you bought when purchasing the
device and installed during installation of the software (see 2.10). These options can also be seen
in the display.
By means of the button "
Open license file..."
you can install a (new) license file if you purchased a
license upgrade subsequently and obtained a new license file.
If you want to purchase a license upgrade, click "
Order license
“. ConfigManager then automatically
opens the ROWE website using your Internet browser where you can order the requested
upgrades. But you can also contact the ROWE Support (e.g. if you do not have an Internet
connection on your computer). For the contact details please see Page 9.

As ROWE intends to continuously enhance its software products, they undergo permanent further
development. This is why new versions are made available occasionally including an extended
scope of functionality and/or error corrections.
Accordingly, it may be worthwhile to check under "

them.
Force USB-2.0: Activate the USB 2.0 mode of the scanner.
Correction scale factor (length)
: If you want to scan special originals which are particularly
light or heavy and find out that the scale in feed direction is not exact, you can define a
correction factor here. But normally you should not make any modifications. Enter a
value of more than 1.0 if the scanned documents are too short.
Language
: Here you can change the system language.
Reduced speed
: If you scan very sensitive originals presenting a risk of being damaged
when transported through the scanner, you can transport them at a reduced speed. Here
you can select the target speed. (see 5.13.5).
Correction scale factor (length):
If this parameter is activated, you can set a correction in
y direction between 0,980 and 1.020 per mill in ROWE SCAN/COPY APP under "Expert
mode". In case of existing favorites, this parameter is to be checked for correctness and
to be saved, once.
Margin back/front/left/right
: Here you can define additional (global) settings for the scan
margins. For negative values, the corresponding margin is cut off; for positive values, it is
added.
Tolerance for mapping autoformats:
Here you can define by how many per mills the
width of a scan format recognized by the width detection may be exceeded for being
allocated to the next smaller format nonetheless.
Delay infeed
: Here you can define how long the scanner waits after positioning the
document until it takes the document in.
Standby waiting time
: Waiting time until the scanner enables the energy saving mode (0:
Energy saving mode deactivated).
In energy saving mode, the scanner is not recognized by the computer (as if switched
OFF). The operating LED is flashing. By pressing the start key on the control panel,
you can "wake the scanner up".
Delete processed printjobs after said time: Define how long finished printjobs are hold,
before they are deleted.
Secure delete iterations: If your printjobs contain confidential data and you desire to be
sure that all files are really wiped from disk after printing, you can define the number of
overwriting cycles.
Active format systems:
Here you can select which format systems are available in ROWE
SCAN/COPY APP when selecting the format.
Stop jobs with resource error after x seconds:
If a printjob cannot be performed

immediately because of missing resources (e.g. a medium roll with a certain width), the
queue will be blocked by default until, in order to prevent the distortion of the order. If
you do not want this behavior, you can define a timeout, after which those jobs are
suspended, such that printing continues with the next job.
Units of measurement
: Determine which units shall be used.
Some functions in ConfigManager can be used
