Documents can be scanned at a speed of up to 40 pages per minute (when scanning one-sided or two-sided documents of A4 size at 200 dpi).

●Two Eject Paths for Scanning a Variety of Documents

Use the space saving U-turn path to scan paper of standard thickness, or use the straight path to scan cards and other thick documents.

●High Image Quality

The 600 dpi optical resolution sensor incorporated in the scanner enables documents to be scanned with high image quality.

●USB 2.0 Interface

The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.

●Color/Grayscale Support

Documents can be scanned in 24-bit color or 256-level grayscale.

●Supports a Variety of Scanning Modes

The scanner supports the following scanning modes, depending on the document type:

- Single-sided or double-sided scanning (with Skip Blank Page function)

• Continuous or single sheet feed

●Card Scan

You can scan business or ID cards.

●Paper Size Detection

The scanner automatically detects the size of a scanned document and eliminates any unnecessary space around the edges of the image when storing the image, even when storing a document of irregular size.

●Auto Color Detection

The scanner detects whether the scanned document is in color, grayscale, or black and white, and saves the image accordingly.

●Full Auto Mode

A Full Auto Mode is provided in the supplied software, CaptureOnTouch, to allow scanning under automatically determined conditions. Scanning conditions such as the color mode and page size are set automatically based on the document being scanned.

●Auto Resolution Detection

When enabled in the CaptureOnTouch or scanner driver settings, this function detects the content of documents and determines the scanning resolution automatically.

●Folio Scan

You can scan folded documents. The scanner will scan both sides and combine the scanned images into a single image.

●Deskew

The scanner straightens scanned images when it detects that the document was placed askew.

●Ultrasonic Double Feed Detection

Ultrasonic waves are used to detect pages that are fed at the same time, and scanning stops if a double feed is detected.

●Double Feed Detection Ignore

When a double feed is detected, the DFR button on the operation panel is lit. You can continue scanning by pressing the DFR button.

●Text Enhancement Modes

The scanner is equipped with an Advanced Text Enhancement Mode to enhance the text of documents with dark or uneven backgrounds, and an Advanced Text Enhancement II mode to enhance the text when both the text and background are light. These modes may not work, depending on the type of document.

●Color Drop-out

The scanner is equipped with a Color Drop-out function that enables you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from the scanned image during black and white or grayscale scanning.

- Skip Blank Page Function

The scanner is equipped with a Skip Blank Page function that enables you to scan a document without storing images of blank pages, regardless of whether each page of the document is two-sided or one-sided. Both sides are scanned, but saving the image is skipped for scan images judged to be from a blank page.

●Prescan Function

The scanner is equipped with a Prescan function that allows you to adjust the contrast and brightness of a prescanned image and then send the adjusted image to the application software, without needing to scan the document again.

●Character/Line Emphasis Function

If characters and lines in scanned images are not clearly visible, you can use this function to adjust their thickness during scanning.

●Skew Detection Function

The scanner automatically stops operation when documents are fed at an excessive slant to prevent damage to documents.

Basic Operation

Documents

The scanner can scan documents ranging in size from business cards to LTR/A4. The document sizes that this scanner can scan are shown below.

Plain Paper

Size

Width: 50.8 mm to 216 mm (2" to 8.5")

Length: 54 mm to 356 mm (2.12" to 14") (You can scan documents up to 3,000 mm (118.1") long by setting the scanner to the Long Document mode.)

Paper thickness

Straight path: 27 to 255 g/m ^2 (7 to 68 lb bond) 0.04 mm to 0.3 mm (0.00157" to 0.0118")

U-turn path: 27 to 128 g/m ^2 (7 to 34 lb bond) 0.04 mm to 0.15 mm (0.00157" to 0.0075")

Loading capacity

A4 size or smaller: 50 sheets

Larger than A4 size: 40 sheets

IMPORTANT

The documents to be scanned must satisfy certain criteria. Read the following items carefully.

- When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers by aligning the centers and leading edges of the documents.

Align the leading edges Feed roller Align the centers

- It is recommended that documents exceeding 356 mm (14") size are fed one sheet at a time.

- Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry before scanning it.

- Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the internal parts of the scanner after scanning such documents.

- When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. In this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the application software before scanning the document.

• Laminated documents may not be scanned correctly, depending on the document.
• It is recommended that thin documents be fed one page at a time.
• Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam or malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the document and then scan the photocopy.

There are creases or fold lines.

Carbon paper

There are curls. The sur

coated.

There are tears.

Extremely thin document such as semi-transparent thin paper.

There are clips or staples.

Documents with excessive paper dust particles.

Business Card

CAUTION

• Use the straight path when scanning cards.
• Embossed cards may not be able to be scanned correctly, depending on the type of embossment.

How to Place Documents

Switching the Feed and Eject Methods

Switch the feed and eject methods based on the type of document you are scanning.

The U-turn path is used when the straight path tray at the rear of the scanner is closed, and the straight path is used when it is opened.

U-turn path Straight path Standard feeding Non separation feeding

Standard feeding is used when the feed selection lever at the front of the scanner is lowered, and non separation feeding is used when it is raised.

Standard feeding is used to feed documents one page at a time. Non separation feeding is used to feed bound or fastened multi-page documents or folded documents without separating them.

Feed and Eject Methods for Different Document Types

Document type	Feed method	Eject method	Remarks
Plain paper Either	Either
Business cards Either	Either	Straight path	Place cards vertically.
Plastic cards Either		Straight path	Embossed cards must be placed vertically one card at a time. Up to three non-embossed cards can be placed at one time (either vertically or horizontally).
Thick paper Either		Straight path
Thin paper Either	Either
Bound or fastened paper (e.g., invoices)	Non separation feeding	Either
Long documents	Non separation feeding	Either
Half-folded paper	Non separation feeding	Either

When scanning documents that contain both plain paper and plastic cards, place the cards at the top and use the straight path.

Placing Documents

1 Switch the feed method based on the type of document you are scanning.

When scanning plain paper or business cards, set the feed selection lever to the standard feeding position (lower position).

The pages of a multi-page document will be separated and fed one page at a time.

When scanning plastic cards or bound or fastened paper (e.g., invoices), set the feed selection lever to the non separation feeding position (upper position). As documents are scanned without page separation, place the documents one page at a time (one set in the case of bound or fastened paper).

For details on the feed methods for each document type, see p. 25.

2 Open the document feed tray.

Line drawing of a rectangular electronic device casing with control panel and scroll wheel (no text or symbols)

3 Switch the eject method based on the type of document you are scanning.

Ordinarily, you should scan with the straight path tray at the rear of the scanner closed (U-turn path).

When scanning business cards, plastic cards, or other documents you do not want to bend, open the straight path tray (straight path).

For details on the eject methods for each document type, see p. 25.

After placing the document, align the document guides with both edges of the document.

IMPORTANT

• When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut your hand on the edges of the paper.

• Make sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit marks (on the document guides. Up to 50 pages of ordinary plain paper (80g / m^2) can be loaded at the same time.

• Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the document, or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.

• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the scanner while you are using it, as this may result in personal injury. Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets caught in the scanner, immediately turn OFF the power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.
• Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document is curled, it may cause a paper jam.
• If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has been stored, and then resume scanning the remaining document pages
• After you finish scanning, close the document feed tray, document eject extension support, and straight path tray to prevent damage to the scanner while it is not being used.
• When scanning multi-page documents that are fastened together (e.g., invoices), place the document so that the fastened edge is toward the feed tray.
• Be careful when scanning paper that is longer than A4 or letter (LTR) size or thin paper, as the documents may fall off of the eject tray after scanning.
• When using the straight path, documents will be ejected from the rear of the scanner. Do not place any obstructions near the document eject outlet. To ensure that the documents are ejected smoothly, make sure that the scanner is placed on a smooth, flat surface.

Placing Cards

1 Set the feed selection lever to the standard feeding position (lower position).
2 Open the document feed tray.
3 Open the straight path tray.

CAUTION

Open the straight path tray when scanning cards. Scanning with the U-turn path may damage the card.

4 Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the card to be scanned.
5 Place the card.

Up to three non-embossed cards can be placed vertically or horizontally at one time. Embossed cards must be placed one at a time and vertically.

AB AB

CAUTION

• Use the straight path when scanning cards.
• Embossed or laminated cards may not be scanned correctly, depending on the card.
• Ultrasonic double feed detection will not function properly when scanning cards. Clear the [Delect by Ultrasonic] check box in the [Feeding] tab.

Placing Folded Documents

Folio Scan enables you to scan documents that are larger than LTR/A4 and therefore do not fit in the feeder. To use the function, fold the document in half lengthwise and place it into the feeder. The DR-M140 will scan both sides and combine the scanned images into a single image.

1 Set the feed selection lever to the non separation feeding position (upper position).
2 Open the document feed tray.
3 Fold the document in half.

Crease the document firmly down its center to fold the document in half. Fold the document so that its edges are neatly aligned. If the document is not folded properly, paper jams may occur or distortions may appear in the combined scanned image.

IMPORTANT

A portion of the scanned image will be missing at the fold line.

Place the document with the folded edge facing right and the top edge facing downward.

After placing the document, align the document guides with both edges of the document.

Front Back

IMPORTANT

Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the document. Otherwise, the image may scan as skewed or shifted.

Hint

• The front side of the folded document will appear on the left side of the combined image.
• The maximum size for the combined image is A2. Use this method to scan A2-sized documents. When scanning a folded document of a size other than the standard formats, set [Page Size] on the scanner driver settings screen to [Match original size]. (See p. 45)

Setting the Long Document Mode

The length of documents that can be scanned with the scanner is normally 356 mm (14"), but you can scan documents up to 3,000 mm (118.1") long by setting the scanner to the Long Document mode.

IMPORTANT

By selecting the Long Document mode and setting the [Paper Size] in the scanner driver settings screen to auto-detection, documents of up to 3,000 mm (118.1") (2,700 mm (106.3") with 600 dpi) in length can be scanned. Note the following when using the Long Document mode:

• When scanning in the Long Document mode, if the document is placed on the scanner in a skewed position, it may hit the edges of the feeding area and be damaged. Be careful to place the document so that it is not skewed.
• When scanning with the Long Document mode, paper jam detection may react slowly, resulting in damage to the document. Be careful to avoid paper jams.
• When scanning long documents, make sure to set the feed selection lever to "non separation feeding mode," and scan the documents one page at a time.
• When scanning large-sized documents with the Long Document mode, scanning may be slower. Errors also occur due to memory shortage, and scanning may be disabled.
• Be careful when scanning paper that is longer than A4 or letter (LTR) size or thin paper, as the documents may fall off of the eject tray after scanning.

Using a Patchcode for Scanning

DR-M140 supports batch separation (automatic file separation) functions by using patchcodes.

By tucking patchcode sheets supplied with this scanner into a document and scanning it, the scanner can automatically separate files by images of documents containing patchcode sheets (or documents after the patchcode sheet).

Hint

• This function can be used with the supplied CapturePerfect software. Other applications that support this function include ISIS-compatible applications. It is not supported by TWAIN-compatible applications.
• Patchodes are included with this product in PDF format. Applications that can read PDF files such as the supplied CapturePerfect are required to use this function.

The following patchcodes are installed together with the scanner driver as PDF files.

Type of Patchcode	Pattern Description
PATCH (FILEA)		Files are separated from the page after the page printed with this patchcode. You specify in the application whether to include the page printed with the patchcode in the scanned image.
PATCH II (FILE B)		Files are separated from the page printed with this patchcode. The page with the printed patchcode is always included in the scanned image.

The following operations are performed when using patchcodes for scanning.

1 Print patchcode with a printer.

Click [Start] – [All Programs] – [Canon DR-M140] and then select [Patchcode] from the menu.

Patchcodes can be printed in A4 and letter (LTR) sizes. Open the application and print a patchcode that is the same size as the document to be scanned.

IMPORTANT

• Patchcodes must be printed in their normal size. If patchcodes are enlarged or reduced, they may not be recognized correctly.
• When copying provided patchcodes to create different sized patchcodes, ensure that the patchcode fits inside the effective range shown in the following diagram. Also, when copying patchcodes, ensure that they are the same size and shade as the original.

5 mm (0.2") 5 mm (0.2") Patchcode (effective range for detecting patchcodes) 5 mm (0.2") 94 mm (3.7")

- Keep the patchcode sheet clean. Take particular care to keep the patchcode detection range area clean. Also, do not bend, fold or crease the sheet.

2

Place the documents in the scanner after inserting the patchcode sheet in front of the page that separates the files.

Insert the patchcode sheets at the beginning of documents to change file separation.

Troubleshooting

Common Problems and Solutions

This section provides recommended solutions to common problems. If you have a problem that is not solved by the following, contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

Problem 1 The scanner will not turn on.

Solutions Confirm that the AC adapter is plugged firmly into a power outlet.

Problem 2 The scanner is not recognized.

Solutions (1) Confirm that the scanner is properly connected to the computer with a USB cable.

(2) Confirm that the scanner is turned on. See the previous problem (1) if the scanner does not turn on.

(3) The computer's USB interface may not support the scanner. The scanner cannot be guaranteed to work with all USB interfaces.

(4) Confirm that the supplied USB cable is used to connect the scanner to the computer. The scanner cannot be guaranteed to work with all available USB cables.

(5) If the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub, try removing the hub and connecting directly to the computer.

Problem 3 Documents feed askew (scanned images are slanted).

Solutions (1) Align the document guides to fit the documents as closely as possible, and load the documents so that they feed straightly.

(2) Enable [Automatically straightens skewed image] (or [Deskew]) in the scanner driver settings.

(3) If many pages have been scanned since roller cleaning, clean the rollers. If documents still feed askew, roller replacement or other maintenance may be needed. See Chapter 7 Maintenance for roller replacement procedures.

Problem 4 Both sides are not scanned even when the Duplex scanner driver setting is enabled.

Solutions When you scan using a job registered with CaptureOnTouch, the registered job settings have priority over the scanner driver settings. Edit existing job settings, or create a new job using the desired scanning conditions.

Problem 5 If white lines or streaks appear in scanned images.

Solutions Clean both sides of the scanner glass, and the rollers. If a sticky substance such as glue or correction fluid is found, carefully wipe with just enough pressure to clean the area where the lines appear. If the problem cannot be solved by cleaning, the internal glass may be scratched. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

Problem 6 Pages are missing.

Solutions When the scanner driver's [Scanning Side] setting is [Skip Blank Page], documents with very little black may be unintentionally skipped. Decrease the Set the likelihood of skipping blank page value ("When you want to delete the images of the blank pages in two-sided documents" on P. 59) or set the [Scanning Side] to another mode, such as simplex or duplex. If pages are skipped due to the document double feeding, see "Problem 7 Documents jam (or double-feed)."

Problem 7 Documents jam (or double-feed).

Solutions (1) If the roller has been installed correctly, clean it if necessary.

(2) Proper scanning may not be possible when document pages stick together due to static electricity. Fan the documents before you load them.

(3) Set the scanner to Non separation feeding mode, and manually feed the scanner one page at a time.

Problem 8 Scanned images are saved in TIFF instead of JPEG format.

Solutions When documents are scanned with CapturePerfect while [Color Mode] is set to [Detect automatically] in the scanner driver, documents detected as black and white are automatically saved in TIFF format, even if the file type is specified as JPEG format. This occurs because JPEG format does not support black and white binary format images. If you want to save all images in JPEG format, change the scanning [Color Mode] to either [24-bit Color] or [256-level Gray].

Problem 9 Each scanned image of a multi-page document is saved as a separate document.

Solutions • With CaptureOnTouch, you can scan multiple pages into one image file when TIFF or PDF file format is selected. To do this, select [File type] and then click

, and select [Save all pages as one file] in the displayed dialog box.

- When you select [Scan Batch to File] from the [Scan] menu in CapturePerfect, a dialog box appears with a [Multi Page Settings] pull-down that allows you to select [Single Page]. If you select [Single Page] here, each page of a multi-page document is saved as a separate image file. To save multiple pages to a single image file, select [Multi Page (All Pages)].

Problem 10 All of the placed documents have been scanned, but the scanned image does not appear on the application.

Solutions When [Panel-Feeding] or [Automatic Feeding] is selected as the feeding method on the scanner driver's Detail Settings screen, a scanning operation will not continue after all of the documents are fed, as the scanner awaits additional documents to be fed. You can finish the operation and send the scanned images to the application by pressing the Stop button on the operating panel.

Problem 11 Scanned images of multiple pages cannot be saved in a single JPEG or BMP (PICT) file.

Solutions Multiple scanned images cannot be saved in a single JPEG or BMP (PICT) file. Save the images in either multi-page TIFF or PDF format.

Problem 12 Memory becomes insufficient and scanning stops.

Solutions If you configure scanning conditions that use a large amount of the computer's memory, scanning may stop because of insufficient memory. Although this depends on the computer's memory size, the possibility of insufficient memory increases if any of the following scanning conditions overlap.

• [Color Mode] is set to [24-bit Color]
- A large page size (e.g. Legal) is specified as the [Page Size]. Alternatively, the page size is set to [Scanner's Maximum].
- A high resolution (600dpi etc.) is specified for [Dots per inch].

If an error message appears due to insufficient memory while scanning is in progress, exit the application, change the scanning conditions (e.g. reduce the resolution or page size) and then try scanning again. In addition, the amount of memory used can be contained by turning off [Moire Reduction] and [Prevent Bleed Through / Remove Background] if they are set to on.

Software Troubleshooting

This section describes troubleshooting problems and solutions for operating the supplied software (CaptureOnTouch and CapturePerfect).

If scanning is too slow

(1) Close other running programs, if any.
(2) Scanning can be slowed down by memory shortage caused by memory-resident applications such as anti-virus programs. Close such memory-resident programs if necessary to free up memory space.
(3) When insufficient hard disk space is available, the scanner may be unable to create the necessary temporary files for scanned data. Delete unneeded data on the hard disk to free up more space.
(4) Scanning is slow if the computer's USB port is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant.
(5) If using a common USB cable that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant, replace the cable with the supplied compliant cable.
(6) When the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant, remove the hub and connect the scanner directly to the computer.

If scanned image files cannot be opened in an application

(1) Scanned images saved as multi-page TIFF files can be opened only by programs that support this file format.
(2) Images saved as compressed TIFF files (single- as well as multi-page) can only be opened by programs that support the compressed format. This can occur with programs that are not compatible with CaptureOnTouch or CapturePerfect. In this case, select "None" as the image file compression format before scanning.
