Packing List

Please check that your XEScan/XEScan Reflection package is complete. The package should include a CD-ROM containing the XEScan/XEScan Reflection software and your personal keycode. In the envelope with the printedon license agreement you will find a hardware module (Dongle/Hardlock). If one or more of these components should be missing, please contact your distributor or dealer.

Hardware Requirements

Recommended System Configuration

To use XEScan/XEScan Reflection's full capabilities, you will need a PC with a 800 MHz processor, a 512 MByte RAM for color copies or 256 MByte RAM for monochrome copies and a 20 GB ultra-wide SCSI hard drive or EIDE drive. Furthermore you need a Unibrain FireBoard 400 and a standard VGA display with a 100% Windows compatible video driver.

Software Requirements

Operating Systems

For the XEScan/XEScan Reflection software we recommend Windows 2000 as the operating system. You may also employ Windows 98 SE, Windows NT4 or Windows XP as the operating system.

Note:

In order to install and to remove the program, you will have to be logged in as Administrator on the computer. If a user has “Power User” or lower privileges, Windows denies the installation of the program. In order to work with the program, the currently logged in user has to be provided with “Full Control” on his working directory. In case of a normal installation, this should be the directory the program is installed to.

Program Installation

Please connect the hardlock to the first parallel port of your computer. Be sure you have activated this port in your BIOS. The settings for LPT1 should be "Bidirectional" or better.

Insert the CD into your CD-ROM. If you have activated Autostart, the installation program should run automatically.

Otherwise please go to your desktop, select the CD-ROM drive and open it. Please start the SETUP.EXE by double-clicking it.

The language selection screen will appear. This selection dialog will be in the language of your Operating system, the further installation will continue in the selected language.

The splash screen as well as a setup dialog will appear.

The Welcome screen follows. Please click on Next to get to the software license agreement:

If you accept the displayed license, please select Yes, otherwise select No to exit the setup.

In the next menu please select where you want to install the program. If you are not sure which folder to choose, leave the default settings. As these settings are different for each version or Service pack of the software, no other software will be overwritten.

In the next menu please select the type of setup. You may choose between Typical, Compact or Custom.

The typical setup is recommended for most installations. You should choose the compact version if you want to install only the necessary parts of the software. This will leave out all optional files. If you select the custom setup you will be able to choose the options you want to install from a list – recommended for the advanced user.

If you choose the custom setup, you will have to activate or deactivate the components for the installation in the following dialog:

After selecting Next the installation procedure will start. During the installation a progress bar will appear showing the percentage of progress. If the progress bar will reach 100% the installation is done. The windows on the right shows - from left to right - the transmission form the CD-ROM to the hard disc, the amount of data stored on the CD-ROM and the disk space on the hard drive.

After XEScan has been installed, click Finish for completing the setup. This step will get you back to Windows.

Keycode Entry

Start the program with a double click on the program icon on your desktop. The dialog Keycode Entry will automatically appear. In order to work with the full version of XEScan/XEScan Reflection you will have to enter your personal keycode. The keycode is part of your XEScan/XEScan Reflection package.

The XEScan Reflection Demo does not require a keycode or a hardlock.

Under Keycode enter your personal XEScan/XEScan Reflection keycode. The keycode is part of your XEScan/XEScan Reflection package. If you enter it manually, bear in mind it is case sensitive! The keycode symbols will be displayed in red until the keycode is complete and error-free.

If you prefer entering the keycode with a keycode target, proceed as follows. Place the target in the scanner; the target arrow must point towards the scanner. Click then on Scan Target. Place the target in the scanner and click on Scan target. If the target is obliquely positioned in the scanner, an error message will appear. Place the target at right angles with the scanner and repeat the registration process.

The keycode target is always black and white and may thus be sent by fax. However, the dark margins resulting e.g. from fax transmission may disrupt the target reading. In this case, cut the paper margins along the marked lines and repeat the process.

After registration the program has to be restarted.

Hardware Configuration

At first start, after you have licensed the software with your keycode, the Hardware dialog will appear on the screen. Please proceed now with the selection and configuration of scanner and printers.

Scanner

In this field the identification of the installed scanner type is displayed. You will get to the scanner configuration using the button to the right of the scanner name. These settings are device-dependent. The color of the LED depicted on the button shows the state of operation the scanner is in.

• no response

• warming up

• error

• operational

Highlight a scanner and click the button Scanner Configuration to get to the scanner dialog. Select a scan job and, if ICC profiles are available to you, enter the corresponding path.

Confirm with OK to return to the Hardware dialog and install your printers.

Installing Printers

(XEScan Reflection only)

Highlight the printer type you want to select in the field Available Printers and then click on the red arrow. You can also double-click on the printer. You will then proceed to the printer configuration wizard.

This assistant will take you step by step through the installation and calibration of your printer.

Connection

In this first window you can enter your preferred type of connection. If you connect to the printer via SCSI directly, you should select SCSI.

In order to achieve maximum performance it is recommended to choose Output System. The output subsystem works as a spooler for the SCSI printer. You should select a spooling folder either on a local hard disc or on a remote computer if you want to install the output subsystem on another PC.

Medium

Here you can select the paper types you want to work with. All paper types with the indication "User defined" can be renamed by double-clicking on the entry. You can use the context menu (right mouse click) to make the selection easier.

Hardware

As the calibration depends on the media that are used, you need to enter which media are currently in your printer. The picture on the left shows the position of the rolls in the printer (roll 1 and roll 2). Please be sure to enter the sizes and the media selection correctly.

Print Job

Device-specific settings as well as different print and quality modes are to be set in this device-dependent dialog.

Calibration

(XEScan Reflection only)

Your system is now about to be calibrated. This ensures both color matching and length correction. Therefore a calibration is recommended for color and black and white systems alike. It is recommended to perform all calibrations as some printer settings will otherwise not allow copying.

Target Dialog

After a right-click on the quality settings the following dialog is shown:

Edit media parameters

Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to change the default media parameters Ink-limit or Gamma. But this is usually not necessary, and an incorrect value can lead to a color mismatch of original and copy. Please print the file grayscale.TIFF from the XEScan installation folder with the settings GAMMA=1.0 and Ink-limit=100%.

Please adjust the ink limit so that the dark gray areas are still distinguishable. The darkest area must be totally black.

Keep this setting. Then change the GAMMA value, until the brightness of 50% GREY is exactly in the middle of the range between 100% WHITE and 100% BLACK.

Reset media parameters

The parameters will be reset to the default values.

Edit size correction

Correction factors for width and length are automatically calculated during color calibration. These factors can be changed manually for copying and RIP in the rare case when the automatic size recognition fails to work. This is usually not necessary and can lead to a size mismatch of original and copy if a wrong value is entered.

Edit RIP size correction

Edit RIP size correction works like the aforementioned function but only applies to import files.

All

If you select All, all check boxes will be activated.

None

With None you can deactivate all check boxes with a single click.

Invert selection

Through this function all active check boxes will be deactivated and vice versa.

Printing the Targets

(XEScan Reflection only)

You will be able to print different targets according to the selected output options and media types. Please check or uncheck the boxes to calibrate your system with the desired targets. Then click on the button Print Target. The targets are then printed on the selected printer. They consist of an area with an arrow surrounded by a white frame, trim lines and a print label.

Scanning the Targets

(XEScan Reflection only)

With some combinations of ink type and print medium a dry time may be necessary!

Please cut the targets at the trim lines so that they are no longer visible. Do not cut off the white frame! The white frame around the main part of the target must be at least 0.5 inch.

You can then scan the targets in any order. Please insert the target into the scanner. The arrow on the target must point towards the scanner. Then click on Scan Target. Please be sure to stage the target in mid position. After a successful calibration the date of calibration appears in the window (behind the selected combination). Repeat this process for all printed targets. Leave the wizard by clicking on the button "Finish".

Export to Library

(XEScan Reflection only)

In order to backup your calibration data or to move your calibration to another system where the same scanner and printer are attached you can export the calibration data to profile libraries.

In the calibration dialog click on Export to Library. This will open a list for all performed calibrations of the current printer. Only those which are checked in the list will be exported.

Import from Profile Library

(XEScan Reflection only)

With this function you can import calibrations that were made on another system or were saved for backup purposes. Open the printer specific profile library and mark the calibration data you want to import.

Deleting Installed Printers

(XEScan Reflection only)

Below the field Installed Printers in the Setup window you will find the button Delete printer.

To activate this function, select the desired printer under Installed printers, and then click on the bin. This function is also available using the context menu (right mouse button).

Preferences

Under Preferences you will determine default settings in the tabs General, Warning Options, Label, Accounting, Email, User Administration and Archive.

General

Under Paper format, select between ISO and US standard formats. As a unit you can choose to work with size entries in millimeter or inch. If you only want to scan a part of your documents, enter the size of the prescan under Maximum Length of PreScan. This input can be applied to the editor. If ICC profiles are available for your screen activate the corresponding control box. ICC profiles are only supported by Windows 98, and Windows 2000 and newer operating systems! If you want changes of scanner status to be displayed, activate the corresponding check box.

Warning Options

The warning options can be activated for the following operations:

• Paneling

• Subsequent Scaling (printing from the archive with a scaling factor)

• Nesting

• Margins (from a certain size in mm)

• Copies (from a certain number of copies)

• Gamma

• Mirroring

• Disk space (free capacity of your hard disk in MByte)

• Scan resolution (warning when using a fixed dpi value)

• Scanned file already exists

• Calibration is too old (number of days)

• Size Correction

• Scanned file raw size

• Output dpi

If the warning options are activated, a corresponding warning message is shown on the screen before the scan or copy process starts. It is then possible to change the output options or continue the process.

Label

(XEScan Reflection only)

Under the tab Label you can individually determine the information the standard label is supposed to contain. The standard label may also be turned off completely at this point. To do this, deactivate the control box Print label.

Accounting

Accounting is an important tool for billing the copies made or the evaluation of statistics. By activating the control box Accounting, the most important data is saved in a log file. This data can easily be exported to Excel to be reprocessed. Of course, Excel must be installed on the PC to use this feature. The Excel file will be stored in the

same folder as the account log file.

The text in the field Customer Info is written to the log file at each scan, scan-to-print or RIP operation.

In combination with the option Always Ask for Customer Info the user will have to store his user name, customer name or any other text information in the log file.

Depending on how the data is supposed to be postprocessed, we recommend opening several log files, e.g. one per day or per month or until the next billing date.

In this window you can configure your system for email scanning.

If you are using a SMTP Server, we recommend you to send an email with the Button Send test email your own address. If this works properly, your system is correctly configured.

Under Maximum size you can determine from which file size on you will be warned before the email is sent.

The installation of a MAPI server depends on your operating system. Please refer to your Windows system

manual.

User administration

Please note that immediately after the installation a user with the symbolic name "_" is logged on with all administrator's rights. You will be prompted to replace this user key with your own account. Please note that the user key has the function of a password.

As an administrator you can then create user accounts with different user rights with the button New User. New users will initially get the same rights as the currently selected user.

You can also delete users completely with the bin.

In the section User at Startup you can select if a user key is requested at program start or which default user is logged in. Additionally you can choose if the programs should log in the last user.

With regards to the log off you can select which user is logged in after the current user has logged out. Typically this should be a user with restricted rights. You may also state the time of inactivity after which a user is automatically logged off.

You can also choose to save the parameters of the user logging out so that the following user can work on with these settings. When this option is not selected, the user who will log in will work with the settings specified by the administrator.
