Features of the DR-3060/3080C

The main features of the DR-3060/3080C scanner are listed below.

■ Fast document feeding

Although the scanner is compact, it can rapidly scan up to forty A4 sheets (double side) per minute, and can scan documents ranging in size from business cards to B4 paper.

■ Gray scale support (DR-3060)

Documents can be scanned in 256-level gray scale.

■ Color/Gray scale support (DR-3080C)

Documents can be scanned in 24-bit color or 256-level gray scale.*

■ Supports a variety of scanning modes**

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

  • Single-sided/double-sided mode
  • Continuous/manual feed

■ Automatic document size detection**

The scanner automatically detects the length of a scanned document, and eliminates any unnecessary space around the edges of the document when storing the document, even when storing an irregularly sized document.

■ Automatic paper thickness adjustment

Because the scanner automatically detects and adjusts for the thickness of the paper that the document is printed on, there is no need to adjust for paper thickness beforehand.

■ Front paper feed/eject

Documents are fed into the scanner from the front and are ejected from the front, making the scanner easy to use and allowing more flexibility in choosing a location to set up the scanner.

■ Compact size

The scanner is extremely compact, 13.5W x 10.9D x 7.5H in. (344W x 278D x 191H mm).

■ Dropout color (DR-3080C)

The scanner is equipped with a "dropout color" function that allows you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from scanned images. (This function is only available on the front side of a page.)

■ Deskew

The deskew function automatically straightens an image if the document was loaded askew. (This correction is made by the ISIS/TWAIN driver.)

■ Text enhanced mode

The scanner is equipped with a "text enhanced" mode that allows you to clearly scan text printed on a dark background, and text that is written in faint pencil. (This function is implemented by the ISIS/TWAIN driver.)

■ "Skip blank page" function

The scanner is equipped with a "skip blank page" function that allows it to scan a document regardless of whether every page is double-sided or single-sided. (This function is implemented by the ISIS/TWAIN driver.)

■ Pre-scan function

The scanner is equipped with a pre-scan function that allows you to adjust the contrast and brightness of a pre-scanned image and then sends the adjusted image to the application software, without needing to scan the document again. In black and white (binary) mode, the intensity of the pre-scanned image can be adjusted. (This function is implemented by the ISIS/TWAIN driver.)

■ Auto Start

The scanner is equipped with an auto start function that automatically initiates scanning when a document is placed in the paper feed tray.

■ Compatible with carbonless duplicating paper

The scanner is able to scan carbonless duplicating paper.

■ Power-saving feature

The scanner has a power-saving feature that puts the scanner in low-power mode after it has been idle for a certain period of time.

* Only the top side of documents can be scanned in 24-bit color. With double-sided scanning, the bottom side is scanned in 256-level gray scale even if 24-bit color scanning is selected.

** Available when using applications that support these functions.

Connecting the Scanner to Your PC

Connect the DR-3060/3080C either directly to your PC or to a SCSI device daisy chain.

Notes on the Shape of the Connector and the SCSI Interface Cable

- The DR-3060/3080C is equipped with a 50-pin half-pitch (pin type) SCSI connector.

• After checking the shape of the SCSI connector on your PC or on the SCSI device to which you will daisy chain the scanner, purchase a SCSI interface cable with the right combination of the appropriate connectors.

graph TD A["Computer"] --> B["SCSI device"] B --> C["50-pin half-pitch (pin type)"] D["DR-3060/3080C"] --> E["SCSI interface cable"]

▶ Notice

Make sure that the scanner and your PC are both turned off when connecting the scanner to the PC.

SCSI ID and Terminator Settings

Use the DIP switches on the rear of the scanner to make the SCSI ID and terminator settings.

For the DIP switches, the upper position is the ON position, and the lower position is the OFF position.

Factor settings (Terminator: OFF; SCSI ID = 2) ON1 2 3 4 SCSI ID switches Terminator ON/OFF switch

SCSI ID Settings

Refer to the following table when setting the SCSI ID. If there are other SCSI devices connected to or inside the PC, make sure to set a unique ID for the scanner.

SCSI ID SW2 SW3 SW4
0 OFF OFF OFF
1 OFF OFF ON
2 OFF ON OFF
3 OFF ON ON
4ONOFF OFF
5ONOFF ON
6ONO
7ONO

F

▶ Notice

When the scanner is shipped from the factory, the SCSI ID is set to "2."

Although any value from 0 to 7 is valid as a SCSI ID, "7" is normally reserved for the SCSI host adapter, and should therefore not be used. In addition, "0" and "1" are normally used by internal SCSI hard disks that are used for system startup, so do not use these IDs either.

Terminator Setting

The terminator should be set to "ON" only in the SCSI device that is at the end of the SCSI daisy chain.

If the scanner is the only SCSI device that is being connected to the PC, or if the scanner is being connected at the end of a daisy chain of SCSI devices, set bit 1 of the scanner's DIP switch (terminator) to ON, and disable terminator for all other SCSI devices.

graph LR A["Computer"] --> B["Tower"] B --> C["Printer"] C --> D["Printer ON"] note1["Terminator OFF Terminator ON"] --> B

If another SCSI device is located at the end of the daisy chain, turn the scanner's terminator "OFF," and turn the terminator in the last SCSI device "ON."

graph LR A["Computer"] --> B["Printer"] B --> C["Server"] D["Terminator OFF"] --> B E["Terminator ON (or attached)"] --> C

CAUTION

When the scanner is the last device on the SCSI bus, enable termination either by DIP switch or by attaching a terminator plug. Note that incorrect operation may result if a terminator plug is attached while termination is enabled by DIP switch.

Connecting the Power Cord

Connect the power cord that is provided with this scanner to the power cord connector located on the rear of the scanner, and then plug the cord into a power outlet.

Using the Scanner

Documents

This scanner is able to scan documents ranging in size from business cards and checks up to B4 size documents. The scannable size range is:

Width: 2.2 in. to 10.1 in. (55 mm to 257 mm)

When using the auto start function, 2.8 in. to 10.1 in. (70 mm to 257 mm)

Length: 2.8 in. to 14.3 in. (70 mm to 364 mm)

Thickness: 0.0024 in. to 0.0059 in. (0.06 mm to 0.15 mm) with automatic feed 0.0019 in. to 0.0079 in. (0.05 mm to 0.2 mm) with manual feed

There are certain criteria that a document must meet in order to be scannable. Familiarize yourself with the following points:

  • When scanning a multi-page document, pages must be grouped together so that they have the same size, thickness and weight. Scanning different types of paper at one time can cause the scanner to jam.
  • 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 can make the rollers dirty, which can then transfer the dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the rollers after scanning a document written in pencil.
  • When scanning a double-sided document that is printed on thin paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. Adjust the scanning intensity in the application software before scanning the document.
  • 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.
