1. Overview

The Xerox FreeFlow Scanner 665E is a Xerox color-enabled scanner that interfaces with FreeFlow software. The scanner is an optional accessory that is used in conjunction with the DocuColor 8000/7000 Digital Press.
The FreeFlow Scanner 665E is capable of:
Scanning color images at 600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi).
Providing the same resolution and ranges for both Platen and Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) scanning.
Providing electronic page (ADF) deskew for color and black and white.
NOTE: The scanner only deskews what the ADH may have skewed during the scanning process.
Providing color scaling, ranging from 11-100% at 600 dpi and 22-200% at 300 dpi.
The scanner provides the following controls:
Hue rotation which allows you to shift the entire spectrum of the image by an equal amount.
Color cast adjustment control which allows for correction of the image to remove small amounts of unwanted color tints.
Saturation control which allows you to adjust the intensity of all color. You can decrease intensity until a gray image devoid of color is achieved. You can increase intensity until colors over saturate.

The scanner includes a control panel on the front right corner. Use these controls to start and stop scans as well as monitoring the status of the scanner.
The control panel consists of the following components:
Start button (green): Press this button to start a scan.
Stop button (red): Press this button to cancel a scan. The page currently being
scanned will complete the scan process.
Status LED (green): Remains constantly lit when the scanner is ready to scan and is
dark whenever a scan is in progress.

Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
ADF
The Automatic Document Feeder has the following features:
Automatic 2-sided
scanning:
When two-sided originals are scanned, the front (top) side is scanned first. The original is then turned over and passed through the ADF to scan the back side. Finally, it is turned over a second time before being ejected into the Document Output Tray face down, thus maintaining the original order of the document stack.
Feeds many document
types, including:
Documents from 6.5 x 5.5 inches to 11.7 x 17 inches
Documents with minor damage, such as slightly curled paper
Hole-punched stock
13 to 32 lb. (49 to 120 gsm) uncoated stock
High-speed scanning: 65 images per minute in black and white
30 images per minute in grayscale
20 images per minute in color
100 sheet capacity (20 lb. uncoated stock)
Ability to separate the ADF
from the Document Glass
Cover
The Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) separates from the Document Glass cover with a latch on the front edge of the ADF/ Document Glass cover assembly. This aids in jam clearance and for scanning bound documents with many pages. With the Document Glass cover separated from the Document Feeder, it will close and contact the bound document with even pressure.

RDO files

RDO is the three-letter extension for the Raster Document Object file type. As stated earlier, the RDO file type is used primarily with FreeFlow, but you can use RDOs with other FreeFlow applications, or convert them to PostScript or PDF files.
An RDO is a document file made up of images. An RDO has two parts:
A PostScript wrapper which contains all the information about the structure and format of the pages in your document.
A .CON directory that holds the TIFF, JPEG, PostScript, and Adobe PDF files that make up the pages of your document.
When you create an RDO, FreeFlow creates both of these parts automatically.
With an RDO you can: Scan hardcopy documents to create electronic images to add
pages to your RDO.
Insert existing TIFF files, JPEG files, PostScript files, or Adobe PDF files into your RDO.
Export RDO pages to other file formats such as TIFF, JPEG, PostScript, or Adobe PDF.
Create headers or footers, add page numbers and logos, group pages into sections, or choose a paper size for your RDO. There are also many other setup and printing options.
Put as many pages as you want in an RDO. However, the bigger your RDO is, the longer it will take you to open it.
KEY POINT: Do not move, copy, rename, or delete an RDO using Windows Explorer. If you do, the content (.CON) directory will not be included in the operation, and the RDO will be corrupted. Use the FreeFlow File Manager to perform these operations on RDO files.
NOTE: For descriptions of the other file types you can use with RDOs, use the online Help system.

KEY POINT: This book uses illustrations showing a DocuColor 8000 Digital Press connected to a Fiery EXP8000 color server. Your system may vary depending on the digital press and color server for your work environment.
KEY POINT: The Enhance Image option activates only when the Black and White scan option is selected. It is not available for
color scan jobs.
The Enhance Image area provides Deskew and Despeckle options when scanning black and white images:
Deskew: This option straightens a crooked image. Deskew
checks your scanned files for any skew, or tilt, and corrects the skew by tilting the bits within the image boundary.
Skew most commonly occurs during scanning. The
Deskew option checks for skew every tenth of a degree starting from .10
Deskew does not operate with a skew of less then
degree or more than 20
° to a maximum of 20°.

Despeckle: This option removes specks from the scanned
image. The Despeckle feature locates and removes any background spots, or specks, that may occur on your scanned image.
The size you set for the Despeckle option refers to the
maximum speckle size that will be removed from the image. For example, if the speckle size is set to 10, then ten refers to a 10 X 10 square pixel; any speckle this size or smaller is removed from the image.
To enable this option, check the Despeckle checkbox.
Drag the slider or type a value in the associated text
box to indicate the size (in pixels) of the speckles to remove. Accepted values are from 1 to 30 pixels. The default is 1.
To protect a halftone image from the despeckle
process, check the Protect halftones checkbox. A check mark indicates that the halftone will not be despeckled.

Scanner software overview

The FreeFlow Scanner 665E software is also known as Xerox Scanner software. The scanner software is comprised of two components:
4. Advanced Scanning
TWAIN Scanning
Application
Scanner Support This component is used for maintenance and troubleshooting.
This component is also called TWAIN Data Source or TWAIN driver and is used for scanning.
NOTE: TWAIN is a scanning specification which allows programmers to write scanner software modules (like the FreeFlow scanning application) that work with any TWAIN­compliant application, such as Photoshop or Paintshop Pro. This means that you can use your Xerox Scanner with any imaging application that supports the TWAIN standard.

General
Use the controls on this tab to specify default settings for common original documents.
File Transfer Mode
Settings:
Rotate Image: This option causes the scanner to
rearrange the data in the output image so that the image will appear upright when viewed.
Use TIFF Orientation Tag Only: TIFF images contain a
bit of information called an orientation tag. This tag tells imaging applications how to display the file. This option allows faster scanning than the Rotate Image option.
Mask Page Edge: This control is checked by default. When checked, this feature
applies a 0.12 inch (3mm) mask to the image area perimeter, preventing dark lines or shadows from appearing on the edges of the image. If you need additional edge cleanup, it should be done using the Crop or Frame features; refer to “Crop” on page 4-24 and on “Frame” on page 4-28.
Default Scan Ticket: This list box contains all of the scan tickets found in the Scan
Ticket list box on the Basic Features tab. Use the list box in the Preferences dialog to choose which scan ticket will be set as the default.
