Documents for Scanning

zBe careful of the following when you scan plastic cards.
- Cards that are bent may not be fed properly.
- If the surface of the card is dirty with grease marks (e.g. fingerprints) and such, perform scanning
after wiping the dirt off.
- When you scan plastic cards with strong luster, some parts of the image may appear lighter or
darker than the original.
e.g. gold colored credit card
- When you scan embossed cards, put the embossed side down, and insert the card in landscape
orientation.
- If the background color of the card and the color of the embossed characters are similar (e.g. no
gold or silver embossing), it may be difficult for the ScanSnap to recognize embossed characters.
In that case, click the [Option] button in the [Scanning] tab of the ScanSnap setup dialog box, and
select the [Increase text contrast] check box for a possible resolution.
