1. Select ADF as the Scan Type within the TWAIN window.

2. Click the Scan button.

3. The document in the ADF input tray should be now loaded into the ADF and scanned. After this process, you should see a scanned image of the document on your screen.

4. Click Exit to exit the TWAIN window.

INSTALLING ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE

Your scanner is TWAIN compliant and functions with virtually all available TWAIN compatible software. If you purchase additional software to be used with your scanner, please make sure that it conforms to the TWAIN standard.

CHAPTER II. SCANNING

Your scanner needs to be driven by certain type of software program. Since all documents or images (whether text or pictures) that are acquired from the scanner are treated by your computer as images, most scanning will probably be done from an image-editing program where you can view, edit, save and output the scanned images. An image-editing program has been bundled for your scanner on the included Setup/Application CD-ROM. It will allow you to alter and correct any scanned images by using a variety of filters, tools and effects.

What about scanning text documents and editing them in a word processor? This is the role of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. OCR software converts the image files that are created from scanning text documents into text files that can be viewed, edited and saved by word processors. An OCR program has also been bundled on the included Setup/Application CD-ROM, and if you wish to use the scanner in this way you should install the OCR software that is included.

DI Capture, as its name suggests, is a specialized document image capture program that allows you to conveniently digitize your paper documents and automatically save their electronic files in the designated folder. If you are not familiar with scanning, no problem: the Scan Wizard will guide you through to complete each scanning task.

The DocAction program, seamlessly integrating the operation of your scanner with your computer and other peripherals, provides a quick and convenient way to perform various scanning functions. With DocAction, you don't need to adjust settings every time you scan. Simply press any button on the scanner's front panel or click any scanning menu item of DocAction on the screen. The scanner starts to scan your paper documents and transfer them to your assigned destination. The destination can be a printer, your e-mail program, files on your disk drives, an image-editing program, etc.

Please refer to the online help of each program to guide you through any questions you may have while scanning within that program.

This chapter describes three important steps of scanner operations. Read them thoroughly and follow the instructions to ensure correct use and optimal scanner performance.

Step 1. Preparing Documents

Step 2. Placing Documents

Step 3. Scanning Documents

PREPARING DOCUMENTS

Proper document preparation prior to the scan can prevent paper feed errors and damages to the scanner.

■ Checking Document Conditions

■ Loosening Documents (for ADF Scan)

Checking Document Conditions

Make sure the size and ream weight of your documents are acceptable by the scanner. Refer to "Appendix A: Specifications" of this guide for more information.

Scanning multiple documents in a batch from the ADF can increase your work efficiency and make large scanning tasks easier. The ADF of this scanner accepts a variety of paper and stationery you may use in your daily work or personal life, such as:

■ Normal paper whose size and ream weight meet the requirements stated in "Appendix A: Specifications" of this guide.
Notched paper
■ Coated paper (e.g., brochure)

Attention

To prevent paper feeding errors and damage to the ADF unit, strictly follow the instructions below:

• Remove all small objects e.g., paper clips, pins, staples or any other fasteners attached, before loading the paper into the ADF.
  ● Make sure the paper is completely flat with no creased or curled corners.
• Avoid scanning documents with pencil lead and newspaper clippings as they will make the ADF exposure glass and the inner ADF dirty. If you have to scan such paper, clean the scanner frequently (refer to "Chapter III. Care and Maintenance" of this guide for more information).
• The paper for each batch scanned by ADF can be of the same or different weights. However, make sure the length of each scan batch is the same.

However, use the flatbed to manually scan documents if they meet any of the following conditions:

■ Paper lighter than 50 g/m² (14 lb.) or heavier than 120 g/m² (32 lb.)
■ Paper with clips or staples attached
■ Paper with inconsistent thickness, e.g., envelopes
■ Paper with wrinkles, curls, folds, or tears
■ Paper with an odd (non-rectangular) shape
■ Tracing paper
■ Carbon paper, pressure sensitive paper, carbonless paper

Items other than paper, e.g., cloth, metal foil.

Attention

• DO NOT use the ADF to scan photographic sheets or particularly valuable document originals; wrinkles or other damages can happen in case of paper feeding errors.
• DO NOT place paper with wet ink or correction fluid onto the flatbed glass or into the ADF. Wait few minutes for it to get dry.

Loosening Documents (for ADF Scan)

Before loading documents into the ADF, loosen them as follows:

1. Fan the documents so that no two pages are sticking together.
2. Hold the documents upside down with both hands, and then gently push them onto a flat surface to align the edges of all documents.

Line drawing of two hands holding a blank document with the letters 'ZAX' visible (no additional text or symbols)

This will allow documents being fed into the ADF one at a time and prevent paper-feeding errors.

PLACING DOCUMENTS

Using the ADF

1. If you need to scan documents longer than A4/Letter (11.69"), pull out the paper guide extension to provide further support for the documents.

Illustration of hands operating a printer with paper roll (no text or symbols visible)

1. Load the documents, headfirst and face up, toward the center of the ADF input tray and all the way into the ADF until touching the bottom.

1. Adjust the paper width slider for the paper size you are using. The paper width slider should be gently touching both sides of the documents.

Attention

- Paper scanned from the ADF must be a minimum of 90 x 114 mm (3.55 x 4.5", WxL).

● Make sure there are no gaps between the document stack and the paper-width slider; otherwise, the scanned images can be skewed.

- Although the documents should be loaded firmly in place ensuring optimum scanning accuracy, they should never be wedged in so tightly that the process of feeding them through the scanner is strained.

- Do not load additional paper into the ADF while the unit is feeding and scanning.

Using the Flatbed

1. Open the scanner's document cover.

2. Place the document onto the scanner glass headfirst and face-down. Align the center top of the document with the 📋 on the reference mark.

1. Gently close the document cover.

SCANNING DOCUMENTS

There are four different ways to operate the scanner:

1. By acquiring images from the scanner through our TWAIN interface within any TWAIN-compliant application programs.

2. By scanning images within our DI Capture software.

3. By scanning from the single-touch buttons on the scanner front panel.

4. By scanning from DocAction's Execute menu on the screen

The TWAIN interface, DI Capture and DocAction software are automatically installed to your system along with the scanner driver.

Attention

Before you start scanning, check the following:

- Your scanner has been unlocked and the power of both your computer and scanner is turned on.

- The icon appears on the Windows system tray.

● Paper is appropriately placed on the scanner flatbed glass or loaded into the ADF.
