2.2 Loading Documents on ADF • • • Documents that are not square or rectangular Very thin documents Photographs Do not use the following documents: • Paper-clipped or stapled documents • Documents on which the ink is still wet • Documents other than paper such as fabric, metal foil, or transparencies HINT • When scanning semi-transparent documents, slide the [Brightness] bar to light to avoid bleed through. containing large areas written or filled in pencil.
HINT When using the ADF, the leading edge of all document sheets must be evenly aligned.
2.2 Loading Documents on ADF 2.2.2 Loading documents on ADF This section explains how to load documents on ADF. 1. Align the edges of the documents. 1) Grasp no more than 50 sheets in a stack. 2) Confirm that all the documents have the same width. ATTENTION 2 • The documents on ADF paper chute should be less than 50 sheets. 2. Fan the documents as follows: 1) Lightly grip both ends of the documents with both hands, and bend the documents as follows.
4. Load the documents on the ADF paper chute. ATTENTION Set the documents face-up in the ADF paper chute with the upper edge of the documents downwards. 5. Adjust the side guides to the width of the documents. Move the side guides so that they touch both sides of the documents. If there is any clearance between the side guides and the edges of documents, the scanned image may be skewed. 6. Scan the documents. For how to scan the document, refer to "2.4 Scanning Documents" on page.19.

APPENDIX C GLOSSARY OF TERMS A4 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 210 x 297 mm. A5 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 148 x 210 mm. A6 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 105 x 148 mm. A7 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 74 x 105 mm. A8 size C A standard paper size. Paper size is 53 x 74 mm. ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) A unit that allows the user to scan a number of pages consecutively.
Automatic size/skew detection A function that automatically detects the documents' page size and adjusts output data to the detected page size. Document skewing is automatically detected and corrected for the output image. Brake roller A roller that prevents two or more sheets of paper from being fed simultaneously into the ADF. Brightness Refers to the brightness of scanned images in this manual.
Default settings Pre-set values for optional menus. Density In this manual, refers to a measurement of the depth of the display. Dither The process by which a group of dots is arranged to represent a shade of gray. The predetermined dot pattern simulates shades of gray. This scanning process offers the advantage of reduce memory requirements compared to multilevel gray.
Equipment Error An error that cannot be fixed by the operator. The operator should call the manufacturer for service. Error diffusion High-quality halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image production based on black-and-white pixel binarization. A pixel's optical density and that of adjacent pixels are summed, with black pixels relocated in their order of density as they relate to adjacent pixels. The purpose of this technique is to minimize the average error between read and printed densities.
Flatbed An input device of the scanner, where documents are placed and scanned. Generally used for scanning pages out of a book, or paper that is out of the feeding specification of the ADF. Also used to scan a small volume of documents by manual operation. Gamma A unit of changes of images' brightness. It is expressed as a function of the electric input power to devices (scanner, display, etc.) and an image's brightness.
IPC preset mode While reading binary images, it is necessary to set the scanner according to the quality of the sheet to be read. In this mode, these settings can be performed in advance by corresponding each setting to a pattern number. ISIS (Image Scanner Interface Specification) A standard of API (Application Program Interface) or protocol for imaging devices (scanners, digital cameras, etc.) developed by Pixel Translations, a division of Captiva Software.
Mirror image The read image is symmetrically flipped to produce a mirror image of the original detected in the main scanning direction. Moire Patterns Recurrent patterns on scanned images caused by incorrect settings of angles. Noise removal Isolated noise from an image appearing as black spots in white areas and voids in black areas is removed to improve image quality. Removes particles from the document image. Common particles include toner and fax particles.
Photograph mode (White level follower OFF) Selecting photograph mode makes brightness and contrast settings effective but prevents the threshold from being set. With photograph mode, the darkness of image corresponds to the black-pixel density, making it suitable in scanning images such as photographs having gradations. Pick roller Roller(s) that picks the page from the batch of paper in the paper chute and feed it into the ADF.
Separation roller A roller that separates the sheets of paper from each other. Simplex reading mode A mode for scanning only the front side of the document. Smoothing A process that eliminates "jaggies" from slanted lines and curves. Irregular convexities are deleted and irregular concavities filled in. This is useful in OCR applications, for example. Storage temperature/humidity The temperature and humidity levels necessary for proper storage of the scanner.
TWAIN (Technology Without Any Interesting Name) A standard for API (Application Program Interface) or protocol for imaging devices (scanners, digital cameras, etc.) developed by TWAIN Working Group. In order to use devices that comply with this standard, it is necessary to install driver software based on the same standard. Ultrasonic sensor A type of sensor for detecting multi feeding by ultrasonic sound.
