Image outputs

i100 Series Scanners can return bi-tonal, grayscale or color images to the host. Below is a description of the valid combinations.

The i150 Scanner is a simplex scanner. This means that only one side of the document may be captured.

The i160 Scanner is a duplex scanner. This means both the front and the rear side of each document may be captured. For each side captured, the scanner can be configured to return either one or two images per side:

Single output (one image per side): bi-tonal/binary, grayscale, or color.

Simultaneous output (two images per side): bi-tonal and color or bi-tonal and grayscale.

The host application controls which of these images is transferred to the host to be stored as an image file. An example of simultaneous output where all four images are returned to the host would create the following four files:

Front bi-tonal/binary: FB.tif. This image file represents the contents of the front side of the document using one-bit per pixel.

Front color: FC.jpg. This image file represents the contents of the front side of the document using 24-bits per pixel.

Rear bi-tonal/binary: RB.tif. This image file represents the contents of the rear side of the document using one-bit per pixel.

Rear color: RC.jpg. This image file represents the contents of the rear side of the document using 24-bits per pixel.

NOTE: Actual file formats are determined by the host application.
