LOADING DOCUMENTS TO SCAN
Always remove any staples or paper clips from documents before inserting them into the scanner. Staples and paper clips can jam the feed mechanism and scratch the internal components. Also remove any labels, stickers, or Post-It™ notes that may come off during the scanning process and get stuck in the scanner. Misuse as described here will void your scanner's warranty. Please go to www.visioneer.com, select your product, and then click the "Warranty Program" link to view the warranty terms and conditions for your scanner.

SUPPORTED DOCUMENT TYPES
You can scan the following types of documents and cards with this scanner.
■Maximum amount of paper in the input tray
●Approximately 80 pages of 20 lb (75–80 g/m ^4 ) new printer paper
■Document size
●Minimum size (width x length) – 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51mm)
●Maximum size (width x length) – 8.5 x 14 inches (216 x 356 mm)
●Maximum length with long document enabled
○236 inches (5994 mm) up to 200 dpi
○218 inches (5537 mm) at 300 dpi
○59 inches (1499 mm) at 400 dpi and higher
We recommend scanning one page at a time when the documents you are scanning are longer than 14 inches (356 mm).
■Mixed document stacks
- Scanner minimum to maximum without long document enabled
Arrange the documents so that all items are centered in the stack. The document sensor, paper separation, and feed rollers are located in the middle of the paper path. If smaller items are offset from the center they will not be detected. This will cause feeding issues and paper jams.
■Dot matrix printer paper
■Paper thickness between 7–110 lb paper (27–413 g/m ^2 )
■Embossed plastic cards up to 1.25 mm thick
■Non-embossed plastic cards up to 1 mm thick
DOCUMENTS TO AVOID SCANNING
The documents in this list can be scanned, but please note that scanning documents of this type will reduce the life of the scanner. Maintenance will be required more often and replaceable parts will wear faster. These types of documents will jam more frequently and damage to the original documents may occur. If you do choose to scan these document types, do not scan large batches. This type of use is not covered under the scanner warranty and alters replacement parts life expectancy.
We recommend you limit the amount or completely avoid scanning documents that are in this list.
■ Curled, wrinkled or folded documents may cause paper jams or multiple pages being fed through the scanner at one time.
■Perforated or punched paper that could tear when the separation roller engages.
■ Coated paper or photographs where the coating can flake off during scanning and leave residue in the scanner.
■ Extremely smooth, shiny, or highly textured paper may cause the paper feed rollers to slip across the page and cause the scanner to report a paper jam.
■ Carbonless copy paper may tear while being fed through the scanner and the pressure of the rollers may leave streaks on the page. The chemical coating on this paper will rub off on the rollers during the scan process, increasing the frequency of miss-feeds and paper jams.
■ Partially transparent paper such as tracing paper as any images from the opposite side of the page or black background will appear in the scanned images.
UNSUPPORTED DOCUMENT TYPES
Do not scan the following types of documents as they may cause damage to the scanner.
Items outside of the specified supported sizes, thickness, and weight defined in this document.
■ Non-rectangular or irregularly shaped paper will cause the scanner to detect and report document skew errors or paper jams.
■ Carbon paper that will leave residue in the scanner and on the rollers that will transfer to the next set of documents scanned.
■ Documents with hard items attached such as paper clips, binder clips, and staples.
■Documents with wet ink or white-out.
■Thermal or photosensitive paper.
■ Overhead projector sheets, plastic film, camera film, and any other type of transparent or partially transparent plastic item.

SCANNING FROM THE AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER (ADF)
Scanning Regular Documents
Make sure the paper guide switch is in the correct position for scanning regular documents, as indicated in the following illustration.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical frame or enclosure with mounting feet and structural supports (no text or symbols)When the paper guide switch is in the down position, the paper guides can be adjusted to a maximum of 8.5 inches (216 mm) wide. If the paper guides are adjusted wider than the maximum for regular paper, documents may skew excessively during scanning.
Preparing Documents for Scanning
■Fan the documents to make sure all pages in the stack are separated.
■ Bend and then flatten the document stack to make sure the horizontal edges are aligned to help prevent paper from skewing while being pulled through the scanner.
■ Pinch the ends to align the leading edges slantwise to help prevent multiple pages from being fed through at a single time.

CLEANING THE SCANNER
Regular maintenance of your scanner can help to ensure continual optimal performance.
Using a soft, lint-free cloth, wipe down all plastic surfaces on the scanner.
Cleaning Inside the Automatic Document Feeder
Cleaning the inside of the scanner helps to keep your scanner operating at optimum performance. You should clean the inside of the scanner at least once a week or after 1,000 pages have been scanned. If you are getting frequent paper jams, multiple pages feeding at the same time, or you're seeing lines in the scanned image, it is time to clean the scanner.
Note: Be careful when cleaning the rollers. All of the rollers, except the free rollers, are designed to rotate in one direction only. Do not force the roller to rotate in the opposite direction. Forcing the roller to rotate will damage it, and cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.
-
Wet a soft cloth with some Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (70%).
-
Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.

Problem: The scanner won't scan. What's wrong?
Check for one of these possible causes:
Are the cables loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect the cable connections. Make sure the cables are plugged in securely.
Is the scanner's status light on? Turn on the scanner's power. If the status light doesn't come on, plug the power supply into another electrical outlet. If you are using a UPS battery back-up or power strip, try plugging the scanner directly to a wall outlet.
Did you restart the computer and scanner? If the scanner gets a paper jam, or looses connection because of an error, try restarting your computer and power cycling the scanner.
Did you plug the scanner into a USB hub? If you're using a USB hub to connect the scanner try plugging the scanner's USB cable directly to the back of the computer. It is not recommended that you use the scanner with a USB hub, if you are using a hub, the hub must have its own power supply.
Is the USB cable 6' or less? If you are using a USB cable that is longer than 6' you may lose connection to the scanner. The recommended USB cable length is 6' or less, the USB cable provided with your scanner is within this range.
Did you select another image source in the scanning software? If you use multiple imaging devices with your computer, such as a camera, all-in-one printer, or another scanner, you may have selected another source for images. Make sure Visioneer® Patriot™ H60 / H80 is selected as the scanner.
Problem: Why does my scanner not function after performing a system restore on Windows?
The system restore process may have corrupted some of the driver components. It is recommended that you reinstall your scanner driver. Please refer to Uninstalling Your Scanner on page 50 for installation instructions.
Problem: Why won't my scanner buttons work after scanning with Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)?
After performing a scan using the WIA interface you must close the application you were using before scanning with the buttons on the scanner. This does not occur when scanning using the TWAIN or ISIS interface.
Problem: Why won't my scanner work after the computer has been sitting idle for several hours?
To resolve the problem, simply turn off the scanner power then turn it back on again.
This may occur after Windows goes into power saving mode to "hibernate" the computer into a low power state. When you move your mouse or type on the keyboard it "wakes" the computer back up and restores full power to the system. This power fluctuation during the computer's hibernating period may sometimes cause the scanner to lose communication to the computer.
Problem: The installation will not complete successfully. If installation finishes, the scanner's OneTouch options do not seem to work properly.
A likely cause is that some driver programs are already installed on your computer for another scanner. They may be interfering with the installation and OneTouch options, and you need to remove those other drivers and re-install your Visioneer ^® scanner. You can remove these programs from the Windows Control Panel. Please refer to the user manual provided with your other scanner hardware for instructions about removing the driver and software for that unit.
Problem: My computer keeps giving me out of hard drive space error messages.
The minimum requirement of free hard drive space is for the installation of the scanner driver and basic, low resolution, scanning. High resolution scans result in files that can be over 1 gigabyte in size. Free up some space on your hard drive for the software to be able to save the scanned images.
Problem: The paper jams the ADF.
To reduce the number of paper jams, smooth and straighten the paper before scanning, and adjust the guides to the paper size. Paper fed into the ADF at an angle can cause the feed mechanism to jam. If paper jams are occurring more frequently, try cleaning the roller with a soft cloth dampened with Isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Excessive dust on the roller can make it appear worn and will cause issues feeding paper. See Cleaning Inside the Automatic Document Feeder on page 40 for cleaning instructions.
Problem: The ADF won't feed pages properly.
A dirty or worn roller can cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple pages to feed at the same time. First, try cleaning the rollers as described in Cleaning Inside the Automatic Document Feeder on page 40. If the problem persists, the separation and/or feed rollers may need to be replaced. Please see Replacing the Separation Roller on page 42 and Replacing the Feed Roller on page 44.
Problem: If the USB cable is disconnected during a scan, the scanner does not reconnect when the USB cable is plugged back in.
Unplug the power cable from the scanner, and then plug it back in.
If the scanner does not reconnect:
- Unplug the power cable from the scanner.
-
Restart your computer.
-
After the restart is complete, plug the power cable back in.
Problem: The scanner reports a Double Feed error when there is only one page in the scanner.
Try cleaning the double feed detection sensor. Dust on the sensor may prevent the sensor from working properly.
