The Scan Job Queue Window - Microtek ScanMaker 6400XL Reference Manual

The Scan Job Queue Window

The Scan Job window provides several key functions in managing your scan
jobs.
A scan job is simply a task that you designate the scanner to process and scan.
For instance, when you first preview an image, the image as a whole has its own
parameters (its own brightness and contrast setting, resolution, etc.). The whole
image can be treated as one scan job, or you can select part of the image, apply
different parameters to it, and treat that as a separate scan job. Scan job 1 can
be in color mode, while scan job 2 can be in grayscale mode.
By making the scan jobs distinct, you can then manage each job separately
(apply image correction, change settings, etc.) and scan them as separate files
into your image-editing software (if the software supports multiple open images).
The number of scan jobs is indicated by the number of titles in the Scan Job
window. Scan jobs marked with a check are the ones designated to be scanned,
and the jobs are scanned in the order that they appear in the window.
Function buttons: The function buttons
allow you to create or manipulate the settings
for a scan job. These buttons include the Up
and Down position arrows; Duplicate, New,
Delete, Check, and Load/Save.
