Toggle Patch — indicates you want to tell the scanner, via a toggle
patch document, if the document is color/grayscale or black and white.
You can select:
• Off: no patches will be used.
• Same Side: only the side which recognizes the patch sheet will
toggle.
• Both Sides: a patch will be recognized on either the front or the back
side.
Dots per inch (dpi) or resolution ⎯ indicates the scanning resolution,
which largely determines the quality of the scanned image. The greater
the resolution, the better the reproduction. However, scanning at a
higher resolution also increases scanning time and file size.
Select a resolution value from the drop-down list. The default is 200 dpi.
Available resolutions are: 75, 100, 150, 200, 240, 300, 400 and 600 dpi.
Cropping ⎯ allows you to capture a portion of the document being
scanned. All cropping options can be used with color/grayscale and
black and white images. Front and Back cropping are independent,
however, for dual stream scanning, color/grayscale and black and white
cropping must be the same per side. Only one cropping option can be
assigned per image.
• Fixed to Transport: (used for batches of same-sized documents)
allows you to define the area to be imaged. Fixed to Transport
cropping is used in conjunction with paper size and page layout and
assumes you are center-feeding your documents. If you are not using
center feeding, you must select the Layout tab to define your scan
area. See the section entitled "Layout tab" later in this chapter.
• Automatic: dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different
document sizes based on the edges of the image.
• Aggressive: eliminates any residual black border on any image
edges. In order to achieve this, there is a possibility that a small
amount of image data from the edge of the document may be lost.
• Relative to Document: (zone processing): (used for batches of
same-sized documents) — zone processing is a floating fixed crop
window (the zone) located relative to the upper left corner of a
document. It allows you to select an area on the document to be
delivered in either color/grayscale or black and white format (a
separate window for both black and white and color/grayscale may
be defined). Different parameters may be selected for both the front
and back of the image.
This option may be used in conjunction with Automatic cropping
where a separate color/grayscale or black and white area to be
saved is desired. It is useful in applications where a photograph,
signature, embossment or seal appears in a consistent area for an
application (you may want that small area in color/grayscale and the
rest in black and white). To define a zone, select the Layout tab.
