[1]Acceleration. Used to accelerate until the speed most appropriate to the read ratio is attained.

[2]Approach run. Used to ensure that speed stabilizes.

[3]Image read. Used to read the image at a specific speed suited to the read ratio.

[4]Deceleration. Used to enable the scanner to speed down and stop promptly, starting at the end of the image.
