Image file storage locations

This section provides general recommendations regarding the impact of image file storage locations on the overall throughput of the scanner.

You can receive up to four image files per document. Decisions about where to write these files when retrieving them from the scanner could impact the overall throughput of the scanner. In order to prevent overwriting data the scanner stops feeding paper when the internal image buffer reaches two-thirds capacity. Scanning will not resume until buffer memory reaches one-third. In order to minimize the number of times this condition might occur, it is recommended that image files are written to a local hard drive in order to avoid the potential overhead of transferring files across the network to remote drives during scanning.

Bar code recognition

This section provides general information about bar code recognition

 

and read rates.

 

The i1800 Series Scanners does not include a bar code accessory. The

 

host system provides bar code functionality. The main imaging

 

parameter, which may affect bar code read rates, is resolution. Either

 

black and white, grayscale or color images may be used for bar code

 

applications. Refer to your software documentation for their

 

recommendations and/or requirements for image quality to achieve

 

desired read rates.

Image addressing

Image address information only applies when the scanner is configured

 

with Image Address enabled via the operator control panel

 

touchscreen.

 

The i1800 Series Scanners receive all image address functionality from

 

the host. This includes index format, starting image address, image

 

address format and level rules.

Image address format

The image address format can be from one to four fields. Each field

 

may be up to 9 characters. Total image address length with delimiters is

 

30 characters. Each field may use level 1, level 2, level 3, and fixed

 

fields, and must be explicitly defined by the application. See Chapter 3

 

or 4 (depending on your driver) for more information.

 

The order of importance for the fields (from highest to lowest) is fixed,

 

level 3, level 2, level 1. When defining an image address, the field with

 

the highest importance must always be to the left. For example, F321 is

 

a valid format. F123 is not a valid format.

 

You are not required to use all four fields. If you chose to use fewer than

 

four fields, you must specify a field width of 0 for any unused field. 0

 

width fields may not be between two non-zero width fields.

 

When defining fields, you can only have one field assigned to each

 

individual level. For example, F21 is a valid format. F11 is not a valid

 

format.
