Zone processing

Zone processing is only available on the i820 and i840 Series

 

Scanners.

 

Some applications have a requirement to store part of an image

 

in color or grayscale and the rest of the image in bi-tonal format

 

(this saves storage space by not storing the entire image in color

 

or grayscale). Zone processing is a fixed crop window (the zone)

 

located relative to the upper left corner of a document. It allows

 

the operator to select via the host application an area on the

 

document to be delivered in color, grayscale or bi-tonal format (a

 

separate window for both bi-tonal and color/grayscale may be

 

defined). Different zones may be selected for both the front and

 

rear of the image.

 

This feature may be used in conjunction with auto cropping.

 

Following is an example of producing a color zone.
