BASIC CONCEPTS The following information will provide you with the basic concepts associated with scanning documents. Modes The Scanner offers eighteen (18) modes which may be defined for a particular application or group of applications. When you select a mode for use with a particular application, you are selecting the format/appearance of the output.
Page 14
The following example illustrates the use of linked modes. • Assume that in Mode 10: - The Index Format is three-level. - The Image Address Level 3 field length is three (3) characters; the Image Address Level 2 field length is two (2) characters; the Image Address Level 1 field length is four (4) characters.
Image addresses An Image Address is assigned to every document scanned. An Image Address consists of four fields, each of which represent a different document level. An Image Address has a maximum length of fifteen (15) characters; twelve (12) alphanumerics (Field A, Field B, and Field C must be numeric;...
Using the NEXT key To set or change an Image Address using the NEXT key (or Function Code F97), simply press the NEXT key or enter Function Code F97. The next Image Address will be displayed. An entry cursor will appear over the first character of the next Image Address.
Page 17
Once the desired alpha character appears in the display, it may be selected for input into the Fixed Field. To input the desired alpha character, use the left or right arrow key to move the flashing cursor over the desired alpha character.
Image address formats The Image Address may be displayed in the status display, and printed on the original document(s) as they are transported through the system. The format in which the Image Address appears when displayed, written, or printed is defined during installation for each mode. The written/printed Image Address may appear in one of three formats: •...
Single level indexing When using this scheme, the Image Address (IA) assigned to each document is defined as follows: • Field A (Level 1) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. • Field B (Level 2) is defined as having a field length of zero. •...
Two level indexing When using this scheme, the Image Address (IA) assigned to each document is defined as follows: • Field A (Level 1) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. • Field B (Level 2) is defined as having a field length greater than zero.
Two level offset indexing When using this scheme, the Image Address (IA) assigned to each document is defined as follows: • Field A (Level 1) is defined as having a field length of zero. • Field B (Level 2) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. •...
Three level indexing When using this scheme, the Image Address (IA) assigned to each document is defined as follows: • Field A (Level 1) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. • Field B (Level 2) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. •...
Three level offset indexing When using this scheme, the Image Address (IA) assigned to each document is defined as follows: • Field A (Level 1) is defined as having a field length of zero. • Field B (Level 2) is defined as having a field length greater than zero. •...
Level 3, 2, or 1. • You may use Function Code F07 to assign a document Level 0. ™ • You may use the optional KODAK IMAGELINK Footswitch accessory; pressing, pressing and holding, or releasing the Footswitch can change document levels.
Batching A batch is defined as a specific number of documents of a given level (Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3). Prior to processing, a predefined action may take place. During processing, when the specified number of documents of the given level have been processed, a predefined action will take place.
Scanning considerations The topics presented in this section apply to document scanning. Image Headers are created when documents are scanned. Each Image headers scanned document has its own individual image header, containing information such as: • Document number (sequential number) •...
GETTING STARTED The following steps are necessary to prepare the Scanner for operation: • Turn on the Main Power Switch (located at the rear of the machine). • Turn on the Side Panel Switch. • Select the language display. • Calibrate the Scanner. •...
Calibrating the Scanner Calibration sets the intensity of the lamps, which contribute to the overall quality of the scanned document image. The Scanner should be calibrated: • At least once a day when the Scanner is turned on using the Side Panel Switch - prior to scanning documents.
Unsuccessful calibration If the calibration is not successful, a message will appear in the Status Display. You may need to: • Verify that you are using a clean, blank sheet of paper as a calibration target. • Verify that there is not a document already in the document path. Refer to Troubleshooting - Clearing the document path.
Adjusting the feed and The gap adjustment knob on the Control Panel increases or decreases separator roller gap the space between the feed and separator rollers. The gap must be adjusted properly for smooth transportation of documents without document overlap. When documents of different thicknesses are fed in a group, adjust the gap using the thinnest document in the group.
Page 35
5. Turn the Gap Adjustment Knob clockwise three complete turns to open the gap between the feed and separator rollers. 6. Select two documents of the same size, texture and thickness, similar to the types of documents you will be processing. 7.
Page 36
10. When you have adjusted the gap so that the bottom document separates consistently from the top document, rotate the Gap Adjustment Knob counterclockwise another one or two clicks to complete the adjustment. 11. Feed a stack of fifty (50) to one-hundred (100) documents twice through the transport system.
Adjusting the feed shelf Before you begin feeding documents into the Scanner, adjust the position of the Feed Shelf: position Feed Shelf Work Shelf Notch Groove Height Adjustment Legs To automatically feed multiple documents, the feed shelf should be in the raised position (as shown above).
Adjusting the feed shelf Before you begin processing documents, adjust the side guides on the feed shelf to accomodate the documents being processed. side guides 2. Slide apart the Side Guides on the Feed Shelf until the Feed Shelf Label is visible. Center line 2.
Adjusting the exit The Exit Hopper Side Guides and End Stop must be adjusted so that documents will be stacked properly after processing. hopper side guides and end stop 1. Adjust the Side Guides on the Exit Hopper to match the adjustment of the Side Guides on the Feed Shelf.
The Scanner comes with two deflectors (stored in the pocket located Changing the deflector inside the right-side access door), designed to help stack the documents as they exit the transport system and enter the exit hopper. Use the short deflector for documents less than 5 inches (13 cm) and the long deflector for documents longer than 5 inches (13 cm) as well as for mixed sizes.
Preparing documents for Before you begin processing documents, make certain that the documents may be fed through the Scanner easily: scanning • Remove any staples, rubber bands, loose mending tape, or paper clips from the documents to be processed. • Straighten wrinkled edges and tape any torn documents. •...
OPERATING THE SCANNER Overview The scanning process consists of the following steps: 1. The Scanner is prepared for operation (refer to Getting Started ) . 2. The Scanner is enabled by the host system. 3. A mode is selected for the application. Typically this step is performed by the host computer, but it may also be performed by the operator.
Example: Assume that mode 15 contains definitions which allow use of the ™ KODAK IMAGELINK Endorser. The starting print position (which defines how far from the leading edge of the document the endorsement is printed) is programmed to be 0.5 inches.
Feeding documents After the Scanner has been prepared for operation and the desired mode and any temporary operating values have been defined, you are ready to feed documents into the transport. 1. Verify that the side panel switch is on. Also verify that all of the proper adjustments have been made (feeder side guides, exit hopper side guides, etc.).
The Gap Release Lever is used to feed thick documents such as card Feeding thick documents stock or cover stock. The lever is located on the front panel of the Scanner, next to the gap adjustment knob. 1. Press down and hold the gap release lever. This opens the gap between the feed and separator rollers, allowing thick documents to pass between them.
