Manual Feed - Xerox DocuMate 3640 User Manual

Long Document
Select Long document to enable support of paper sizes up to the scanner maximum. After you select
this option make sure you input the page length for your document in the custom input field, located
below the Document size selection list.
Note that some of the options in the scanner interface cannot be used when the page length will be
greater than 14 inches. When you select this option, incompatible options will either be automatically
disabled or the setting will simply be discarded while scanning. For instance, the option Detect double
feeds will usually be disabled when Long document is selected, even if the scanner supports DFD, as
the added page length will cause a false double feed.

Manual Feed

Select this option to enable a delay from when the last page is scanned and when the scanner stops
the scan job. This allows you to scan one page at a time without having to click Scan for each page you
put in the scanner.
To scan with manual feed mode:
1. Select Manual feed in the scanner's interface.
2. In the Timeout field, input the amount of time you want the scanner to wait from when the last
page is scanned and when the scanner stops scanning.
3. Place a document in the scanner.
4. Click Scan.
5. The scanning progress dialogue on-screen will display a countdown indicating how much time you
have to place the next document in the scanner.
6. When you are done scanning all pages in your document, you can click on Abort to stop the timer
or simply let the timer run out.
Detect Double Feeds
Detect double feeds is the scanner's ability to detect when two or more pages are fed through the
scanner at the same time. When this option is turned on, ultrasonic waves are aimed at the document
to detect multiple pages by the level at which the waves pass through the pages. The accuracy of this
sensor depends on paper thickness and whether or not creasing is in the original document.
This option is available in the interface only if the current scanner supports this feature.
Technical Note:
If you are getting false double feed errors, try cleaning the inside of the scanner. Excessive dust on the
sensor can cause false double feed errors. Refer to the maintenance section of the scanner's user guide
for instructions on cleaning the scanner.
