Calibrating the scanner

Image calibration

There are two types of calibration that can be performed on the i600 Series Scanners: Image calibration and Ultrasonics calibration.

•Image calibration: optimizes the optical system in your scanner in order to achieve the best overall quality of scanned images. Frequent calibration is not needed or recommended.

IMPORTANT: If the White Background Accessory is installed, it must be replaced with the black background strip, and the scanner must be rebooted prior to calibration.

•Ultrasonics calibration: ensures that the ultrasonics system that detects multi-feeds and document edges is properly adjusted for best performance. Frequent calibration is not needed or recommended.

Use the calibration target provided with your scanner. Be sure to use a good, clean calibration target. Additional calibration targets can be ordered. See Chapter 5, “Supplies and accessories” for ordering information.
