  • Page 6 Scanner components Front view Elevator tray extender — open the elevator tray extender to accommodate long documents. Feed module — provides smooth document feeding of various sizes, thicknesses and textures. Elevator tray side guides — slide the guides in or out to accommodate the document size you want to scan.
  • Page 7 LEDs — illuminates or flashes from top to bottom as follows: Illuminates when the power is turned on and the scanner is idle. This indicator will flash if the scanner is in “sleep” or lamp saver mode. Illuminates when the scanner is enabled and/or scanning, and flashes when the scanner is powering up.
  • Page 8 Inside view Separation roller — provides smooth document feeding of various sizes and textures one document at a time. Ink blotter strips — collects residue from the Enhanced Printer. Imaging guides — the scanner has an upper and lower imaging guide. It is important to keep the imaging guides clean to obtain optimum image quality.
  • Page 9 Back view Power cord connection Retainer clip FireWire (IEEE 1394) connection Power Cord Connection — provides power to the scanner. The scanner is packed with six power cords. Choose the power cord appropriate for your location and connect it accordingly. Connect the power cord first to the scanner, then to the wall outlet.
  • Page 10 Easy-to-change rollers and feed module. Kodak SurePath Paper Handling Kodak SurePath Paper Handling means you have the confidence that documents will “fly” through the scanner under control. Kodak’s Document Imaging scientists and engineers analyzed years of production scanner feedback from the Kodak service organization’s tracking system and took the best paper transport system in the industry and made it better.
  • Page 11 Paper Handling and Feeding The input tray and automatic document feeder of the i780 Scanner is designed to stack and feed up to 500 sheets of 75 g/m (20 lb.) bond paper reliably across the specified range of document sizes.
  • Page 12 Response Center at Kodak for further analysis. Optics The design heritage of the M-type Kodak lens used in the i780 Scanner comes from a high- resolution production scanner developed for complex character scanning. The lens also incorporates an infrared filter with its lead-free multiple elements. This reduces light loss and eliminates alignment of the infrared filter to the lens.
  • Page 13 Enhanced Printer The Enhanced Printer provides a vertical print capability and supports alphanumeric characters, date, time, document count and custom messages. The Enhanced Printer is unique in that the document print string can be configured to include both static information (i.e., information that stays the same for each document, such as scan station or operator) and dynamic information (i.e., information that may change for each page scanned, such as time or sequential document number).
  • Page 14 End user feedback in the mid-volume segment indicated a strong desire for a higher volume, yet reliable feeder. The i780 Scanner offers elevator-feed or continuous-feed, when the elevator is in the up-position. In addition, the elevator can now be set to four settings for added versatility and productivity: 500-, 250-, 100-sheets and manual.

  • Page 18 Automatic: (used for batches of mixed-size documents) — dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different document sizes. Based on the edges of the image detected, the i780 Scanner dynamically detects the boundaries of the document and only delivers the actual document to the operator.
  • Page 19 The i780 Scanner can pick up the area with the bar code as a black and white image and deliver the rest of the image in full color (high or low resolution depending upon the needs of the application).
  • Page 20 Exposure and contrast have been optimized to bring out details. Lines and fonts appear with smooth edges. All this, in color or black and white, without operator intervention or post-processing. Only the combination of Kodak optics and image processing bring you Perfect Page scanning.
