Chapter 3 Basic Operation

5. Using Patchcode Sheets (Option)

When the optional patchcode decoder is installed, the DR-G1130/G1100 supports Automatic File Separation by detecting patchcode sheets inserted within a document, and performs batch separation.

About Patchcode Sheets

Patchcode patterns are printed on the patchcode sheets used to automatically separate files. Patchcode pattern icons are registered in the following location when the ISIS/TWAIN driver is installed.

Hint

In Windows 8, the batch code sheets are saved to the applications table.

IMPORTANT

Patchcode sheets can be used only when the application you are using supports separating files by patchcode patterns.

Patchcode sheets are available in PDF format. There are four types; [PATCH II (A4)], [PATCH II (LTR)], [PATCH T (A4)], [PATCH T (LTR)], organized according to the paper size and pattern.

Printing Patchcode Sheets

Open the desired patchcode sheet file with CapturePerfect 3.1 or an application that supports the PDF file format, and print the page image only at its original size.

IMPORTANT

Print (at original size) PATCH T (A4) and PATCH II (A4) sheets on A4-size paper, or PATCH T (LTR) and PATCH II (LTR) on LTR paper.

Patchcode sheets must be printed in their original size. The scanner may not recognize them as patchcode sheets if they are enlarged or reduced.

Creating a Patchcode Sheet

To copy a patchcode pattern to create a different size patchcode sheet, make sure to pay attention to the following precautions:

IMPORTANT

Adjust the patchcode so that it fits into the effective area for detecting patchcode patterns.

When copying a patchcode pattern, the copy should be the same size as the pattern on the original.

Be careful to keep patchcode sheets clean. If a patchcode sheet has been folded or becomes creased, reprint or replace the sheet.
