•The output hopper { XE "Output hopper" }receives the forms that are successfully scanned. When the scanner starts, the output hopper is raised; when the scanner stops, the stacker is lowered, allowing you to remove the sheets. Before scanning, the output sheet stop adjustment knob { XE "Output
•The scanner picks the forms from the input hopper one at a time. From there, the form moves along the transport bed by rollers that continually drive the form into the rail to remove possible skew{ XE "Dynamic deskew station" }. The form then passes through the read heads where the cameras capture the image of the form.
•The form now goes through the turnaround station,{ XE "Turnaround station" } where the form is turned over and sent to the wait station. At this point the software application determines where the form should go. If the system includes the optional transport printer,{ XE "Transport printer" } then any information that needs to be printed on the form will be sent there. The form is imprinted as it passes over the print head. The form is then sent to one of two places:
− The output hopper accepts up to 750 forms, depending on the thickness and condition of the sheets. This hopper is reserved for forms that are read with no errors.
− The select stacker { XE "Select stacker" }accepts up to 200 forms, depending on the thickness and condition of the sheets. The software controls the hopper's use. It is used for forms with correctable and
