4 The Enhanced Printer and Patch Readers

Enhanced Printer overview

This chapter provides instructions for using the Enhanced Printer and Patch Readers. The following information and procedures can be found in this chapter:

Overview information about the Enhanced Printer, including information about print fields and printer specifications.

Setting horizontal printer positions.

Replacing the ink cartridge and ink blotter strips.

Moving the printer carrier and cable from the front position to the rear position or vice versa.

Overview information about the Patch Readers and patch types.

NOTE: More detailed information on the Enhanced Printer and Patch Readers can be found in the Image Processing Guide and Kodak publication, A-61599, Patch Code Information.

The Kodak i1800 Series Scanners include a factory-installed, pre- configured front or rear printer. The printer operates at full scanner speed and prints on the front before scanning or rear after scanning. The printer can add a date, time, image address, and custom messages.

The printer is unique in that the document print string can be configured to include both literal (static) information (i.e., information that stays the same for each document, such as batch name or operator) and dynamic information (i.e., information that may change for each page scanned, such as the image address). The capture software application controls static fields; any information that the software allows you to enter can be sent to the printer.

All printer controls and functions are accessible through the ISIS Driver or TWAIN Data source. Printing must be enabled or disabled for each scan session.

NOTES:

The scanner is shipped configured for front printing. See the section entitled, “Moving the printer carrier and cable from the front to the rear or vice versa” to change to the rear printing position.

Clean the scanner’s paper path components daily when using the printer.

You may only use one printer (either front or rear) at one time. If you attempt to print on both sides, an error will be displayed.

The minimum document height for using the printer is 10 cm (4 in.) with adjustable side guides.

The ink cartridge must be installed prior to powering on the scanner, or it could result in errors when printing is attempted.
