Advanced Panel Options - Xerox DocuMate 5445 User Manual

Height threshold
Input the maximum height of images to be merged. The sides will not be merged if the height of either the front or
rear image exceeds this value. For example, if you are scanning a batch of mixed documents such as cheques and
statements, you may want both sides of the cheques merged into one image but not the statements. The Height
threshold needs to be lower than the length of the documents you do not want merged into a single file.
Select one of the options in the Merge two sides list to enable this field. Note that you will also need to enable Long
document if you want to have the maximum height threshold be longer than 17 inches (431 mm).

Advanced Panel Options

The options in this panel may also appear in the Main panel, but with additional settings for you to fine-tune the
feature you've selected. Select the Advanced source configuration mode to show this panel.
Skip Blank Originals
Select this option to have the scanner detect if a blank page has been fed through the scanner, and remove it from
the final file. Typically you might use this option when scanning a stack of two-sided pages which have a number of
blank sides.
• Blank threshold—you can adjust the sensitivity level of the blank image detection. You can use the Threshold
slider to fine tune the sensitivity of the blank image detection. The results will depend on the scan settings and
the types of documents being scanned. In general leave the threshold level at the default setting if you are
scanning good-quality documents printed on standard 20lb printer paper. Try lowering the sensitivity level if
your documents contain light colored text or drawings so those pages are not detected as blank. Raise the
sensitivity level if you are scanning double-sided light-weight paper where images from the opposite side of
the page may appear in the image of the blank side.
Clean Up Edges
Select this option to remove any thin lines from around the edges of the final scan. These lines may appear in the
edges when the item being scanned is not the exact size of the dimensions indicated in the page size fields. This
option will fill the margins of the image with the detected edge color. When you select this option, the Width input
field will automatically enable for you to input the size of the area you want to have filled with the background color.
This option is only available if the scanner supports this feature.
You can specify a fill size between approximately 0.04 to 0.39 inches (1 to 10 mm).
