Detection Functions

Color Document Auto Detection

The scanner automatically detects whether documents are in color, grayscale, or black and white.

Auto Paper Size Detection

The document page size is detected before scanning.

Fixed-Size Scanning

Auto-Size Detection

 

Scanning

Skew Detection

The scanner stops feeding when a skewed document is detected as it touches the edge of the feeder inlet.

Staple Detection

The scanner stops feeding when it detects the presence of stapled documents. (See “Staple Detection Setting” on p. 4-6.)

Ultrasonic Double-Feed Detection

The scanner stops feeding when the ultrasonic sensor detects that two or more document pages are feeding at the same time. (See “Double-Feed Control Setting” on

p. 4-6.)

*A non-detection zone can be specified to avoid double- feed detection in areas such as those containing adhesive labels.

Double-Feed Detection by Document Length

The scanner stops feeding when a double feed is detected by comparing document lengths. (See “Double-FeedControl Setting” on p. 4-6.)

*Using the length of the first document page as a reference, the scanner detects a double feed when a page of a different length is fed.

Chapter 1 Before You Start Using the Scanner

Prescan

At the start of scanning, this function prescans the first page of a document and pauses so that you can use the first image to adjust the brightness and contrast before resuming scanning.

Verify Scan

While scanning, the count of document pages scanned is verified against a pre-specified count or the count obtained from Count-Only Mode. (See “Verify Scan” on p. 4-2.)

Text Orientation Detection

The text orientation on each page is detected, and the scanned image is rotated in 90-degree increments as necessary for normalization.

Feeding Direction

The text orientation is

 

detected and the image is

 

rotated

Image Processing

Prevent Bleed Through/Remove Background

Prevents the background or original image on the reverse side of thin originals from appearing in scanned images.

Image Rotation

The scanner can rotate scanned images in 90° increments, or detect the text orientation and rotate the image in 90° increments to correct its orientation.
