Patch tab The i280 Scanner can switch back and forth between bitonal and color
scanning (i.e., Color-on-the-fly) through the use of a Color Toggle Patch.
Check the Feature Patch option to enable feature patch documents to be read
by the scanner. When enabled, you must also specify a Color toggle patch
option:
Off — disable Color toggle patch.
Front Side — enable Color on-the-fly for only the front images of scanned
pages.
Same Side — enable Color on-the-fly for only the side of the scanned page
that corresponds to the side of the page that contains the color toggle patch.
Both Sides — enable Color on-the-fly for both the front and rear images of
scanned pages.
See the following section “Color-on-the-fly using the Toggle patch”, for more
information about how to configure Capture Software for color-on-the-fly
processing.
Color on-the-fly using the
Toggle patch
When Toggle patch is enabled, color on-the-fly processing is also enabled.
With color on-the-fly, scanning automatically switches between color and
bitonal whenever a Toggle patch is read by the scanner.
To configure color on-the-fly processing properly in Capture Software:
1. Check Feature patch to enable Feature patch code reading.
2. Enable Color Toggle patch by selecting Front Side, Same Side or Both
Sides on the drop-down list.
3. Select a page setup that is configured for either bitonal-only or
color-only scanning.
IMPORTANT: If you select a page setup with simultaneous color and bitonal
scanning, Color toggle patches will be ignored and color on-the-
fly processing will not occur.
