ScanFlow System • Preparing to make automatic previews
1 • On the file server computer or another large hard disc that is visible to all the computers
running the ColorQuartet interface, create a folder for the previews.
2 • On the scanner computer
, start up CQscan.
3 • Choose Preferences from the Edit menu (Macintosh) or Options from the Tools menu (PC).
In the window that appears, foreground the ScanFlow section.
4 • For the Auto Preview Location address, enter the address of the folder you created in step 1.
5 • Choose the desired Size for the preview.
6 • If relevant, activate the Negative or Reflection check box to scan color negatives or reflec-
tive originals, respectively.
7 • If you have a flatbed scanner and want the ScanFlow System to search for the template’s
code when a template is placed in the scanner and the lid is closed, activate the AutoRead
Templates check box.
NOTE: The Auto Previews status indicator shows whether the ScanFlow System is OFF (ScanFlow
functionality not activated) or ON (Auto Previews or MouseFree activated). To change the setting,
you use the ScanFlow Contr
ol window, accessed from the ColorQuartet user interface.

ctivating the ScanFlow System
• The larger the preview size, the larger and more detailed the preview image
will be. Try 10 MB to start with.
• Note that for ScanFlow previews, Negative and Reflection must be chosen
here, not in the Preview Setup window.
• You can make Negative or Reflection the default setting for specific tem-
plates or drums by typing their numbers into the respective text fields.
• If you are not using templates, deactivate this function to save time.
• If you have a drum scanner, the function will not be visible.
