Patchcode Pattern Function

There are two types of patchcodes and their function changes according to their pattern.

„PATCH T (FILE A)

When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a patchcode sheet it creates a separate file for the document that comes after the patchcode sheet. The image of this sheet can be saved or not depending on the application’s settings.

„PATCH II (FILE B)

When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a patchcode sheet it creates a separate file starting from the patchcode sheet. The image of this sheet is saved regardless of the application’s settings.

How to Use Patchcode Sheets

1. Print patchcode sheets on a printer. Print the patchcode sheets at their original size on paper that is the same size as the data.

Note

Print [PATCH II (A4)] and [PATCH T (A4)] on A4 size paper.Print [PATCH II (LTR)] and [PATCH T (LTR)] on letter size paper.

IMPORTANT

Be careful to keep the patchcode sheets clean. In particular, the effective area for detecting patterns should be kept clean. Also, do not fold them or allow them to become wrinkled. If this happens, the scanner will not be able to read them.

2. Insert the patchcode sheet so it is in front of the document that is to be saved to a separate file before loading the documents on the scanner.

Insert patchcode sheets in front of the documents you want to

save to separate files.

3. In the ISIS driver, set the batch separation setting to [Patchcode] and then scan the documents.
