This setting can remove particular parts of a
document by selecting a color (Red, Blue, or
Green). For example, when scanning a document
with the red marks and the black text, selecting
“Red” can remove the red marks and scan the
black text only. To scan all color, choose “None”.

Check the Advanced checkbox to activate the
Filter Threshold (10 ~ 40). A higher value will
keep more of the selected color in, and a lower
value will remove more of the selected color. .
NOTE: This setting is available only when Gray,
B&W, or Multi-Color mode (Gray and B&W only)
in the Scan Mode is selected.

Cleaning Scanner
Dust and residues can build up on the Scanner’s rollers and glasses to
affect image quality. Clean the inside of the scanner periodically to get
the best scanning results. You should clean the scanner at least once a
week or every 2,000 scans.
Depending on the types of documents, the documents that are in poor
condition, or poor results received from your scanner, you may need to
clean the scanner more often.
NOTE: To check the Total Page
Count, click
i

Problems Solutions
My computer can’t detect the
scanner or the scanner doesn’t start
scanning.
•
Check the power supply and cable are connected correctly.
•
Be sure to restart your computer after the scanner driver is installed.
•
Check if the power of the scanner is turned on .
Feeding errors and document jams
occur in the Automatic Document
Feeder.
•
Refer to the “Clearing Paper Jams” section for removing the jammed paper, and also read the “Tips
for Preventing Document Jams“.
•
Be sure the ADF cover is closed properly.
•
Refer to the “Cleaning the Scanner Parts” section for cleaning the scanner.
•
Check If the consumable items appears worn, refer to the “
Replacing Consumable Items
” section.
Poor scan quality.
•
Inspect your originals if they are distorted or damaged.
•
Refer to the “Cleaning the Scanner” section to clean the scanner parts.
•
Verify the scan quality in the software setting and increase the resolution.
White or blank page(s) found.
•
Make sure you have placed the documents correctly in the scanner as the Scan Source setting.
•
Make sure the paper is facing the correct direction.
Vertical lines or stains appear on
scanned images.
•
Scan a blank page to verify if the lines or stains continue to appear, clean the scanner.
•
Refer to the “Cleaning the Scanner” section to clean the scanner parts.
•
Refer to the “Calibrating the Scanner” section to calibrate your scanner.
Scanned images appear skewed,
incomplete or cropped.
•
Use the Paper Guides to keep paper straight when feeding.
•
Do not exceed the Input Tray capacity.
•
Check the rollers condition if the maintenance is required.
Why the scanner tells no paper
detected when paper has been fed.
•
Place paper into the Input Tray until the front edge of the paper touches the paper feed roller and it
grips the paper.

Problems Solutions
Scanning speed is slow.
•
Adjust the scanner software to reduce the resolution and decrease the file size. Lower quality
settings generally results in faster scanning speeds.
•
The BMP format requires a longer time for scanning than other formats.
In Long Sheet mode, why it can’t
set a resolution higher than 300
dpi?
•
Performing Long Sheet scanning can consumes great deal of system memory, the scanner is only
available with the resolution set to 300 dpi or smaller to provide the best scanning performance.
Text created by the OCR software is
incorrect.
•
Select a resolution of minimum 300 dpi in the software settings. The OCR software may not always
convert all text correctly. Please check the document for any errors that the OCR may have missed.
•
The OCR recognition result is generally more accurate with the text-based digital images. Images
with mixed content (text, images, and graphics all in the one page) may result less accurate.
•
Set the scanner color settings to “B&W” if the text is black against a white background.
•
Check if the quality of the original document is poor through the OCR recognition process.
Scanned images cannot be sent as
email attachments.
•
Be sure that you have a default email client installed and configured, in order to use the Email
function in the iDocScan Touch application.
•
Ensure the scanned images do not exceed email size limitations
The OCR and BCR function in the
iDocScan Touch program cannot be
used.
•
Be sure that AABBYY FineReader and AABBYY
Business Card Reader
in the Installation disk is
installed in your computer before using the OCR and BCR function.
Message “Insufficient disk space...”
appears.
•
Scanning multi-page documents can consume a large amount of disk space over time, scanning
may stop because of insufficient disk space. Please clear the destination location from time to time.

Problems Solutions
Memory becomes insufficient and
scanning stops.
•
When scanning conditions that consume a large amount of the computer’s memory, scanning may
stop due to insufficient memory. Exit the application and change the scanning conditions, such as
reduce scanning resolution.
•
Make sure your computer meets the memory and other system requirements as specified.
False multi-feed occurs.
•
Although working properly, the ultrasonic detection sensor may report a false multifeed when
certain paper or a sticky note attached to document is scanned. In such cases, the Ultrasonic MultiFeed Detection must be disabled to allow scanning of this type of document.
Multi-page TIFF cannot be created.
•
Scanning a large document to multi-page TIFF file may cause the scanner to stop working due to
insufficient memory of computer. Alternatively you can save as multi-page PDF using the scanner’s
PDF button.
•
Saving multi-page TIFF images will create very large files, make sure you have enough hard disk
space to save the multi-page TIFF images.
•
Do not attempt to create a multi-page TIFF file that exceed the 2GB limit. If the file size exceeds
2GB, no multi-page TIFF will be created.
