Gray Choose Gray image if your original contains actual shades of gray. B&W Choose B&W if your original contains only text, pencil or ink sketch.

Binarization This is the process of converting a grayscale or color image to a bi-tonal image. There are several different methods of performing this conversion. Two of the options are Dynamic Threshold and Fixed Processing. Dynamic Threshold: Selecting Dynamic Threshold allows the scanner to dynamically evaluate each document to determine the optimal threshold value to produce the highest quality image. This is used to scan mixed document containing faint text, shaded background, or color background with a single setting. 1f Dynamic Threshold is selected, Threshold, Brightness, and Contrast are not available. Fixed Processing: Used for black-and- white and other high contrast documents. A single level is set to determine the black-and-white transition. The threshold is programmable over the entire density range. Fixed Processing sets Contrast to 0. If Fixed Processing is selected, Contrast is not available.

Threshold Used to convert a grayscale image to a bi-tonal image. The value ranges from 0 to

255. A low threshold value produces a

lighter image, and can be used to subdue backgrounds and subtle, unneeded information. A high threshold value produces a darker image, and can be used to help pick up faint images. Adjust the threshold setting by dragging the Threshold sliding bar to the left or right to achieve the desired threshold setting. 200 dpi, 200 dpi, Threshold:80, Threshold:170, Brightness: 0 Brightness: 0

Brightness Contrast Brightness: -50 Contrast: -50 Adjusts the lightness or darkness of an image. The higher the value, the brighter the image. Drag the slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the brightness. The range is from -100 to +100. Adjusts the range between the darkest and the lightest shades in the image. The higher the contrast, the bigger the different grayscale. Drag the slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the contrast. The range is from -100 to +100. Brightness: 0 Brightness: +50 (Normal) Contrast: O Contrast: +50 (Normal)

Resolution: 75 dpi A good control of the resolution results a good detail of an image that scans. The resolution is measured by dots per inch (dpi). Normally, the greater the dpi number, the higher the resolution and the image file size. Be aware that greater resolution takes more time to scan, and more disk space for the scanning image. For your information, an A4 size color image scanned at 300 dpi at True Color mode consumes approximately 25 MB of disk space. A higher resolution (usually means over 600 dpi) is only recommended when you need to scan a small area at True Color mode. Choose a resolution value from the drop down list. The default value is 200 dpi. Available resolutions are 75, 100, 150, 200,300, 400 and 600. Or you may choose your desired value by clicking the box in the right side of the drop down list and press the arrow key to select your desired value and then click the Add button to include it in the drop down list. Resolution: 150 dpi

Invert Reverses the brightness and the colors in the image. The default setting is Black on a White background. Reverse mode is White on a Black background. For color images, each pixel will be changed into its complementary color at the command of Invert. *E am not worthy to have you enter my ? that is God, I beg all my brothers - those u € whe work menuelly, clercs and lay brother: ards belng humble in all things; not to clorify r to become interlorly proud because of good m sometimes says or does in them or thraugh + prd: “De not rejoice..… in the Fact that the de : 10:20} Let us be firmly convinced af the fact Black on White “Lam not worthy to have you enter m; that is God, I beg all my brothers — those \ E who work manual, clerics and ley bratne: de being humble in al things; not te glorify Lo become Interlorly proud because of gand times says or does in them or through | “Do not rejoice… in the fact tat the dd 10:20} Let us be firmly convinced of the far White on Black

The following options are available for scanning B&W images. -Binarization (Dynamic Threshold) -Resolution -Invert

The Compression tab allows you to compress your scanned image and choose the level of compression. Bi-tonal images are normally compressed using CCITT standard called Group 4 (G4). Color and grayscale images are often compressed using JPEG technology. Move the JPEG Quality slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the level of compression. Note the greater the compression level, the lower image quality. Default is 50%. Note that the compression depends on your image editing application. 1f your image editing application does not support the type of compression format, then either a warning message will appear or the image quality of the compressed file will not be acceptable. JPEG (Joint Photographic Editor Group). This group developed and lent their name to a file compression standard for color and grayscale images that is widely used by scanners, and software applications. On Microsoft Windows-based systems, a file with the extension .jpg has normally been compressed using this standard. For scanning color or gray images, the following compressions are available: None +JPEG For scanning B&W images, the following compressions are available: None .G4

Color Dropout tab allows you to drop either of the red, blue, or green color in your scanned image. 1f your image contains red color watermark or background, choose the R (Red) channel then any red watermark or background will be removed. This feature is used to sharpen your text when using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. Note that this function supports only black & white and gray images. Therefore, be sure to choose any black & white or gray image type while applying this function. Lmege | Compasson CobrDimgant | Paper | Ophout | Seine | Inforeton |

Advanced Processing provides two options that can adjust your scanned image in the best optimal result. Filter This value is used to determine the color Threshold which will be dropped out. A lower value will drop more of the selected color out, while a higher value will leave more of the selected color in. Background The pixel which is higher than the Level background value will be adjusted to the lightest point. Adjust the value for both the Filter Threshold and Background Level to produce the best optimal result. Example, slightly adjusting the background value makes your text more clear. topo

Cropping allows you to capture a portion of the document being scanned. Choice: Automatic, Fixed to Transport, EOP (End of Page) Detection. Options Description Automatic Automatic adjusts the cropping window according to different document sizes. Use this option for batches of mixed-sized documents. Fixed to Transport This feature allows you to define the area or zone to be imaged. Use for batches of same-sized documents. 1f you select this option, you can use the arrow keys to define the x and y offset values, width and length to redefine your scanned area. The Display window will show image placement as you change the values. EOP (End of Page) Detection This feature allows you to define the area or zone to be imaged. Use for batches of same-width but different length documents. 1f you select this option, you can use the arrow keys to define the x and y offset values, width and length to redefine your scanned area. The Display window will show image placement as you change the values.

The following options are only available when Fixed to Transport is selected. . X-Offset — the distance from the left end of the scanner to the left edge of the scanning area. . Y-Offset — the position from the top end of the document to the top end of the scanning area. . Width — the width of the scanning area. . Length — the length of the scanning area. . Center: automatically calculates the x-offset for center-fed feeding based upon document size selected. . — — relocate the scan area by click the arrow key on the cross sign while retain the scan size.

OverScan Overscan allows you to add a specific margin at top and bottom or right and left (Options vary based on the type of scanner) of the edge of the image. This is used to reduce possible corner clipping on the skewed images and often applied to a batch of skewed document to be scanned in the auto document feeder. Select a value between 0 and +5 mm. Note the overscan result will not be shown in the Display window and that the availability of the function varies based on type of scanner.

Multi-Feed Detection Multi-Feed Detection allows you to detect overlapped document that go through the auto document feeder. Multi-Feed usually occurs due to stapled documents, adhesives on documents, or electro-statically charged document. Note : The availability of the function varies based on type of scanner. Additional Length Detection Additional Length Detection allows you to define the length of document being multi-fed. This value indicates the additional length exceeding your scan area. The Display window will show the size of the document as you change the value. A value of 0 indicates no additional length detection.

8 TROUBLESHOOTING If you have problems with the operation of your scanner, please check the following troubleshooting hints.

8.1 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: When the scanner is powered on, it makes noises and won't stand ready. Answer: There are two possibilities:

1) You might fail to push the scanner shipping

lock to its “use” position. If this is the case, pull the scanner status switch to its “use” position first.

2) The scanner is not placed on an even, flat

desktop surface. This may cause the scanner to malfunction. Question: The scanner is powered on, but the lamp does not light up. Answer: The lamp is probably out of order. Contact your local dealer or distributor to replace the lamp. For your information, the average life time of the lamp is about 15,000 hours and the operating temperature for the scanner is between 10°C(50°F) and 40°C(104°F).

Question: While scanning, the scanner often makes noises, or it scans back and forth. Answer: Usually this means the memory of your computer is not enough or the speed of your CPU too slow. Please try to increase your memory to at least 32M or replace your CPU with Pentium or later. Question: Why is it that the scanned image always comes out to be too dark? Answer: 1) Modify the Gamma setting to1.8-2.2 for your monitor and, when printing, set the Gamma setting to 2.2 for your printer.

2) Adjust the Brightness setting from the TWAIN

user interface to get a brighter image. Question: The scanner works well except for the line art image. The lines in the image seem to be much thicker than the original one. Answer: Increase the Brightness or adjust the Threshold setting to improve line art image.
