Imaging Commands
7-4 PowerScan® 7000 2D
Image Ship - IMGSHP
An image is taken whenever the trigger of the unit is pressed, or when
the Image Snap (IMGSNP) command is processed. The last image is
always stored in memory. You may “ship” the image by using the IMG-
SHP command.
The image ship command has many different modifiers that can be used
to change the look of the image output by the scanner. Modifiers affect
the image that is transmitted, but do not affect the image in memory.
Modifiers always begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensi-
tive). Any number of modifiers may be appended to the IMGSHP com-
mand. For example, you can use the following command to ship a
bitmap image with gamma correction and document image filtering:
IMGSHP8F75K26U
