About operation modes

The following operating modes are available with this scanner. Select one of the following modes according to your system envi- ronment before using the scanner. For details, contact your ser- vice representative.

Scanner mode

Using this scanner in connection with a personal computer, the image projected on the scanner’s screen can be saved in the PC as image data, or printed out through a printer connected to the PC.

DMP mode

By installing the optional DMP board in the scanner and connect- ing it to a DMP-dedicated printer, the MS350II can be used as a digital microfilm printer (DMP). The image projected on the scanner’s screen can be printed out through the DMP-dedicated printer. In this case, no personal computer is required.

Reader-printer mode

Using the CapturePerfect bundled with the MS350II, the scanner that is set to the Scanner mode will operate as if it is set to the DMP mode. The image projected on the scanner’s screen can be printed out directly through a printer connected to the personal computer. In this case, however, the image cannot be saved in the PC as image data.

When the DMP board is installed in this scanner, switch the “DMP mode” and “scanner mode” in the user mode before use. (P.45 “USER MODE”)

If the computer is connected with the user mode set to “DMP mode” when the DMP board is installed in this scanner and the MS350II is used as a scanner, the operation panel may not be operable or other prob- lems may occur.
