This section explains the main features of this product, the names of parts and their functions.

Main Features

The scanner is equipped with the following features:

●High speed scanning

Realizes a scanning speed of 90 ppm/180 ipm [fi-8190/fi-8290] (*1) (*2), 70 ppm/140 ipm [fi-8170/fi-8270] (*1), or 50 ppm/100 ipm [fi-8150/fi-8250/fi-8150U/fi-8250U] (*1). Furthermore, up to 100 sheets of documents (*3) can be loaded for continuous scanning which enables you to quickly digitize a large volume of documents.

● Network connection [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250]

The scanner can be connected via a wired LAN.

Even with a network connection, the scanning speed is equivalent to that of a USB connection.

During a network communication, in order to prevent information leaks due to interception of communications, you can encrypt scanned images.

For details, refer to the Network Setup Tool for fi Series Help or Network Settings (fi Series Network Settings) [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250] (page 403).

●Equipped with a Liquid Crystal Display [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner mounts an LCD that displays various operational settings for scanning, number of pages scanned, and error status.

This allows you to easily configure various operational settings for a scan or check the number of pages scanned or the error status.

●Equipped with a Function Number Display [fi-8150/fi-8250/fi-8150U/fi-8250U]

The scanner mounts the Function Number Display that displays the error status.

This allows you to easily check the error status.

- Capable of scanning documents folded in half, envelopes, multi-layered transfer paper, and booklets such as passports

This scanner mounts the [Manual Feed] button that is used to switch the mode to Manual Feed Mode.

Switching the mode to Manual Feed Mode reduces the load on documents being fed so that documents are fed and scanned successfully.

● Improved efficiency for pre-scan work

The scanner can perform "mixed batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper weights and sizes, such as A4 size wood-free paper and plastic cards, at once.

This simplifies the process of sorting the documents before scanning.

●Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds

The scanner has ultrasonic multifeed sensors that accurately detect "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at once.

This detection for overlapped documents is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights and sizes, such as A4 size wood-free paper and plastic cards, avoiding potential work loss.

●Intelligent multifeed detection function

When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location on the page, the intelligent multifeed detection function enables the scanner to recognize the area of the attachment.

The scanner does not detect the recognized area where the attachment is on as overlapping of documents so that scanning can continue.

●Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects a paper jam by noise made while a document is being fed and stops the scan.

This function reduces the risk of having valuable documents damaged.

●Paper protection function by monitoring documents that are fed skewed

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects a paper jam by the amount of skew that has occurred on a document while it is being fed and stops the scan.

This function reduces the risk of having valuable documents damaged.

●Advanced image processing function

The scanner is equipped with a function that automatically detects whether a document is in color or monochrome and then outputs an image of the document.

This function reduces the risk of color deviation or stripes from occurring on documents and allows you to output highly reproducible images.

- Preventing images form missing any parts even if documents are fed skewed [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270]

The scanner is equipped with a function that detects the top and bottom of a document when a document is fed skewed and then outputs an image of the document.

This function prevents images from missing any parts even if documents are fed skewed.

●An imprinter can be installed [fi-8190/fi-8170/fi-8150/fi-8150U]

The imprinter is available as an optional imprinter that can print characters on a document after a scan.

Using an imprinter improves work efficiency in document management or in the verification of documents.

- Capable of scanning a document in a black background on the flatbed [fi-8290/fi-8270/fi-8250/fi-8250U]

A black document pad for the flatbed is available as an option.

Using a black document pad when scanning a document that has a white background allows you to output the scanned image in the actual size of the document.

- Capable of scanning photographs, clippings, and documents that are too big to be loaded in the scanner

The Carrier Sheet and Photo Carrier Sheet are available as an option.

Using them allows you to scan photographs that can be damaged quite easily, clippings, or non-standard size documents that cannot be loaded in the scanner.

● Capable of scanning a booklet such as a passport without damaging it

The Booklet Carrier Sheet is available as an option.

Even if the scanner is not equipped with the flatbed, using it allows you to open and scan a booklet such as a passport that can be damaged quite easily.

● Centralized operation of multiple scanners [fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270/fi-8150/fi-8250]

With PaperStream NX Manager, multiple scanners can be operated together.

For example, you can specify the scanner that you want to use and specify scanning menus that are customized for each scanner, and distribute them to the scanners.

You can also save images in a specified linked destination, and monitor the processing status of images.

For details, refer to the PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide.

The PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide can be downloaded from the following web page:

https://www.fujitsu.com/global/support/products/computing/peripheral/scanners/fi/manuals/

● Centralized management of multiple scanners

With Scanner Central Admin Server, multiple scanners can be managed together.

For example, the application can be used to update the setting information and scanner drivers for all scanners at once, and can be used to check the operating status of each scanner.

If the scanner is operated with a computer, you can use Scanner Central Admin Agent to link with Scanner Central Admin Server.

If the scanner is operated with PaperStream NX Manager, you can link with Scanner Central Admin Server directly.

For details, refer to the Scanner Central Admin User's Guide.

ATTENTION

Since carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may harm the brake roller and rollers for feeding documents (such as the pick roller), the scanner may fail.

Precautions

● Notes on the documents to be scanned

Depending on the documents to be scanned, take note of the following.

- Since carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may harm the rollers such as the brake roller and pick roller, take note of the following:

-Cleaning

If paper jams occur frequently, clean the brake roller and pick roller.

For details, refer to Daily Care (page 217).

-Replacing the consumables

The life of the brake roller and pick roller may end sooner compared to scanning wood-free papers.

• When scanning wood containing papers, the life of the brake roller and pick roller may end sooner compared to scanning wood-free papers.
• The brake roller and pick roller may be damaged when a photo/sticky note on a document comes into contact with these parts during scanning.
• The surface of the document may be damaged when gloss papers such as photographs are scanned.

For documents that can be damaged quite easily, use the optional Carrier Sheet or Photo Carrier Sheet.

• The light of the LED may reflect brightly when glossy papers are scanned.
• When scanning semi-transparent documents, set [Brightness] higher in the scanner driver to avoid bleed-through.
• When you scan documents written in lead pencil, there may be black traces left on the document, which may cause feeding errors.

Clean the rollers frequently.

For details about cleaning, refer to Daily Care (page 217).

• If documents are not fed, or documents are fed overlapped or jammed frequently, refer to Troubleshooting (page 286).
• When you scan documents with the ADF, all the documents must be flat on the leading edge. Make sure that curls on the leading edge of the documents are kept within the following range.

● Notes on plastic cards

When you scan plastic cards, take note of the following.

- Make sure you use a card that meets the following specifications, and check if the card can be fed before scanning it.

-Type: Compliant with the ISO7810 ID-1 type

-Thickness: 1.4 mm or less (Embossed cards allowed)

-Material: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or PVCA (polyvinyl chloride acetate)

●The number of plastic cards that can be loaded in the ADF paper chute (feeder) is as follows:

-Up to 10 for non-embossed plastic cards with a thickness of 0.76 mm or less

-Up to 5 for non-embossed plastic cards with a thickness of 1.4 mm or less

Note that you can only load one card at a time if the plastic card is embossed.

- It is recommended to place the card face-down in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

●Rigid cards may not be fed properly.

- If there is dirt on the surface of the card, such as grease marks (fingerprints), perform scanning after wiping the dirt off.

- If an imprinter is connected, plastic cards cannot be scanned.

Notes on booklets

When you scan booklets, take note of the following.

- Make sure you use a booklet that meets the following specifications, and check if the booklet can be fed before scanning it.

-Thickness: 7 mm/0.28 in. or less

When you scan a passport, make sure that it also meets the following specifications.

-Type: Compliant with ISO/IEC 7810 ID-3

-Size: 125 × 88 mm/4.92 × 3.46 in. (when unopened)

-Size: 125 × 176 mm/4.92 × 6.93 in. (when opened)

• If pages are added or a VISA is attached to a passport, which results in the page thickness exceeding 7 mm, it cannot be fed.
• Load the open booklet face-down with the edge of the side which has more pages first in the ADF paper chute (feeder). If you scan a booklet in the wrong orientation, the booklet may be damaged or the image may turn out elongated vertically.
• Open the booklet fully and load it in the ADF paper chute (feeder). Otherwise, the booklet may not be fed.
• When scanning a booklet, press the [Manual Feed] button to switch the feed mode to Manual Feed Mode.

If you started a scan but did not switch the feed mode to Manual Feed Mode, close the ADF, open it again, and then switch the feed mode to Manual Feed Mode.

The setting for switching the feed mode to Manual Feed Mode can also be configured in the scanner driver.

- Dirty rollers may cause feeding errors or dirt to get on a booklet.

Clean the rollers frequently.

For details about cleaning, refer to Daily Care (page 217).

• If there is dirt on the front or back side of a booklet, such as grease marks (fingerprints), wipe the dirt off then perform a scan.
• If you do not want a booklet to become dirty or damaged, use the optional Booklet Carrier Sheet.
• If an attachment such as a VISA is attached to a page (a side to be scanned) of an open booklet, it is recommended to use the optional Booklet Carrier Sheet.
• When using the Booklet Carrier Sheet, configure the scan settings for the Booklet Carrier Sheet in the scanner driver, and perform a scan.

Fig. 1

ATTENTION

The above condition applies when the document is set to the center of the pick roller width.

HINT

If there are any holes in the 35 mm-wide central column, you can move the document to the left or right to avoid an error.

Conditions Required to Accurately Detect Overlapped Documents (Multifeed)

Multifeed is an error that occurs when two or more sheets are overlapped and fed at once.

Overlapped documents are detected with the ultrasonic sensor or according to the difference in length of the documents.

For documents that are loaded, the following conditions are required for overlapped documents to be detected accurately.

Detecting Overlapped Documents with the Ultrasonic Sensor

●Paper weight: 20 to 465 g/m ^2 (5.3 to 124 lb)
- Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the document.
Refer to Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123).
- Do not attach other documents with glue or other adhesive within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the document.
Refer to Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123).

Detecting Overlapped Documents according to the Difference in Length

• Load the documents of the same length in the ADF paper chute (feeder).
  ●Variation in document lengths: 1% or less
• Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the document.
  Refer to Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123).

Detecting Overlapped Documents with the Ultrasonic Sensor and According to the Difference in Length

• Load the documents of the same length in the ADF paper chute (feeder).
  ●Paper weight: 20 to 465 g/m ^2 (5.3 to 124 lb)
  ●Variation in document lengths: 1% or less
• Do not punch holes within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the document.
  Refer to Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123).
• Do not attach other documents with glue or other adhesive within 35 mm (1.38 in.) over the center of the document.
  Refer to Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123).

ATTENTION

The above condition applies when the document is set to the center of the pick roller width.

HINT

- The accuracy of detection for overlapped documents may drop depending on the document type.

Overlapping cannot be detected for the top 30 mm (1.18 in.) of a document in the feeding direction.

• In the Software Operation Panel, you can specify an area not to detect overlapping of documents within the area described in Fig. 1 in Area Not to Be Perforated (page 123)
  For details, refer to Settings Related to the Detection for Overlapped Documents (Multifeed) (page 382).
• When [Standard mode] is selected for [Intelligent Multifeed Function], overlapping is not detected for a piece of paper (80 mm (3.15 in.) or less in the feeding direction) attached on a document (such as sticky notes).

Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning

The following conditions apply when a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights/friction coefficients/sizes is scanned.

Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the mixed batch of documents can be fed.

For details about scanning, refer to Scanning Documents with Different Widths (page 178).

Paper Direction

Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.

Paper Weight (Thickness)

When scanning documents with different paper weight in the same batch, keep the paper weight within the following range:

27 to 413 g/m ^2 (7.2 to 110 lb)

Friction Coefficient

It is recommended that the same paper brand from the same manufacturer is used for documents.

When different paper manufacturers/brands are mixed in documents to be scanned, it affects the feeding performance as the difference in friction coefficient increases.

The following friction coefficients are recommended:

0.35 to 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient)

Document Position

Load all documents covering the width of the pick roller (approx. 39 mm/1.54 in. wide).

For a guideline for mixed batch scanning, refer to Combinations of Standard Paper Sizes in a Mixed Batch (page 128) in Paper Size (page 127).

HINT

When the smallest document covers the width of the pick roller even when it is loaded towards one side as shown in the image below, load documents aligned on one side. So that it prevents documents from skewing when being fed.

Paper Size

When a mixed batch with different sizes is scanned, not feeding the documents straight may cause troubles such as paper jams or part of the image to appear missing.

It is recommended that you check the scanned images if the documents were fed skewed.

ATTENTION

• When a mixed batch with different sizes is scanned, documents are more likely to skew because the side guides do not fit every sheet properly.
• Do not specify the detection method by document length when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different lengths and detecting overlapped documents.

Combinations of Standard Paper Sizes in a Mixed Batch

Refer to the table below for a guideline of the range available for mixed batch scanning.

Configuring Not to Detect Certain Overlap Patterns

If detecting overlapped documents during a scan is set, when you scan a document with a paper attachment such as a sticky note, receipt, or photo, it is detected as overlapped documents, and the scan may stop. Use the intelligent multifeed detection function not to detect these types of documents.

This function has two modes, a mode that is used to configure the settings manually by a user every time the scanner detects overlapped documents, and a mode that is used to configure the settings automatically by the scanner based on the overlap patterns (length and location) for paper attachments such as sticky notes, receipts, or photos that the scanner has memorized. To use this setting, detecting overlapped documents needs to be set in advance.

•[Multifeed Detection] in the scanner driver
For details, refer to the help for the scanner driver.
•[Multifeed] in the Software Operation Panel
For details, refer to Specifying a Method to Detect Overlapped Documents [Multifeed] (page 382).

The following four operation modes are available.

Operation Mode Description
Standard mode Specify whether or not	to detect overlapped documentsevery time they are detected.Overlapping is not detected for a piece of paper (80 mm or less in the feeding direction) attached on a document (such as sticky notes).Scanning will stop immediately if overlapped documents are detected.Note that if the setting for stopping the scan to check images is set to on in the scanner driver, scanning will stop after overlapped documents are ejected.
Manual mode Specify whether or not to	detect overlapped documentsevery time they are detected.Scanning will stop immediately if overlapped documents are detected.Note that if the setting for stopping the scan to check images is set to on in the scanner driver, scanning will stop after overlapped documents are ejected.
Auto mode 1 Specify the setting not to	automatically detect overlappeddocuments when the paper attachment is the same length and in the same location as memorized.Scanning will stop after the overlapped documents are ejected.In this operation mode, up to four overlap patterns can be memorized at a time (when one sheet is scanned), and up to 32 overlap patterns can be memorized in total.When the 33rd overlap pattern is detected, the first pattern that was memorized is overwritten.However, when turning the scanner off and on, the number of memorized overlap patterns depends on the setting for [Remember overlap patterns at power-off] in the Software Operation Panel.For details, refer to Setting to Ignore Certain Overlap Patterns [Intelligent Multifeed Function] (page 390).
Auto mode 2 Specify the setting not to	automatically detect overlappeddocuments when the paper attachment is the same length or shorter as memorized.Scanning will stop after the overlapped documents are ejected.Only one overlap pattern can be memorized in this operation mode.

*3: For fi-8190/fi-8290/fi-8170/fi-8270, a passport with a thickness of up to 7 mm can be scanned without the Booklet Carrier Sheet.

For fi-8150/fi-8250/fi-8150U/fi-8250U, use the Booklet Carrier Sheet to scan a passport.

When using the Booklet Carrier Sheet, a document thickness that includes the Booklet Carrier Sheet must be up to 7 mm.

*4: Note that this is the hardware limitation, and the software's processing time such as data transfer time is added to the actual time of scanning.

The scanning speed is the same when the scanner is connected via a USB or via a wired LAN. The system environment used for measuring scan speed is as follows:

Operating system Windows 10
CPU	Intel® CoreTM i3-10105 3.7 GHz
Memory 8 GB
Storage SSD

*5: The scanning speed of fi-8190 when the imprinter is installed is 80 ppm (simplex)/160 ipm (duplex).

*6:The capacity varies depending on the paper weight.

For details, refer to Documents for Scanning (page 116).

*7: Use the USB cable that is supplied.

When connecting the USB cable to a USB hub, make sure you connect it to a USB hub that is connected to the USB port of a computer.

Connection with USB 3.2 Gen 1x1 (USB 3.0)/USB 2.0 requires the USB port and the hub to support USB 3.2 Gen 1x1 (USB 3.0)/USB 2.0.

Also note that the scanning speed slows down when USB 1.1 is used.

If you connect the USB cable to the scanner, connect the USB cable with the USB logo on the head of the cable facing upwards.
