This section describes the standard capabilities of the scanner. Refer to the end of this section for information on how to use the Adaptive Threshold Processor accessory.

Cropping is a method of capturing a portion of the total document being scanned. The host computer provides the scanner with the following information that defines which portion of the document is to be captured:

∙Left margin — the left-most point is 6 inches (152.4 mm) from the feeder/transport centerline. The left margin is defined as the distance from this point.

∙Width — the distance from the left margin.

∙Top margin — the distance from the leading edge of the document.

∙Length — the distance from the top margin.

Refer to Chapter 6, Scanner-unique Commands for a description of the AX/Y/Z command.

This option is only available for Document Scanners with the Kodak Digital Science Image Manager accessory installed (not the Scanner/Microimager 990).

The Image Manager provides border detection for use with auto- cropping. Auto-cropping locates the edges, in both the x and y direction of documents and outputs the actual size of the document that was scanned.

The host computer provides information to the scanner defining whether the image should be stored in standard or reverse polarity.

Default polarity is black on a white background. (white = 0) Reverse polarity is white on a black background (white = 1).

Refer to Chapter 6, Scanner-unique Commands for a description of the SX/Y/Z command.

The host computer provides information to the scanner defining whether to scan one or both sides of the document(s). Simplex indicates only one side (the front side) of the document(s) will be scanned, creating a single image header and a single page image. Duplex indicates both sides of the document(s) will be scanned, creating two image headers and two-page images.

Refer to Chapter 6, Scanner-unique Commands for a description of the TX command.
