6.2 Document Quality 6.2 Document Quality ■ Document Type 6 The following paper types are recommended for document use: When using documents of paper type other than the above, check whether or not the document can be scanned by test-scanning a few sheets before executing the actual document. ■ Document Thickness Paper thickness is expressed by "paper weight.
HINT • When scanning semi-transparent documents, slide the [Brightness] bar to light to avoid bleed through. • To prevent the rollers from becoming dirty, avoid scanning documents containing large areas written or filled in pencil. If scanning of such documents is unavoidable, clean the rollers frequently. ATTENTION HINT • Carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may damage the Pad ASSY or rollers (e.g. Pick roller) when documents are fed.
6.3 Maximum Document Loading Capacity 6.3 Maximum Document Loading Capacity The maximum number of sheets that can be loaded on the ADF paper chute is determined by the size and weight of the document. The following graph shows the maximum document loading capacity of ADF according to paper weight.
6.4 Area not to be perforated Document trouble might occur if there are punched holes in the shaded area in the following figure.
6.5 Multi feed Detection Conditions 6.5 Multi feed Detection Conditions There are three multi feed detection modes: document thickness, document length, and both document thickness and length. The following conditions must be satisfied in each of these detection modes. ■ Detection by Document Thickness ■ Detection by Document Length Sheets of the same length shall be set in the ADF at a time.
HINT The type of document and document conditions sometimes cause the multi feed detection rate to drop.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS A4 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 210 x 297 mm. A5 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 148 x 210 mm. A6 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 105 x 148 mm. A7 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 74 x 105 mm. A8 size A standard paper size. Paper size is 53 x 74 mm. ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) A unit that allows the user to scan a number of pages consecutively. Fed documents are transported from the ADF paper chute (or hopper) to the Stacker.
Brake roller A roller that prevents two or more sheets of paper from being fed simultaneously into the ADF. Brightness Refers to the brightness of scanned images in this manual. Canadian DOC Regualtions "A standard issued by Industry Canada, a department of the Canadian government, which sets out the technical requirements relative to the radiated and conducted radio noise emissions from digital apparatus.
Dither The process by which a group of dots is arranged to represent a shade of gray. The predetermined dot pattern simulates shades of gray. This scanning process offers the advantage of reduce memory requirements compared to multilevel gray. Document jam A warning that appears when document is jammed in the transport unit, or transportation is Interupted because the paper is slipping. dpi Dots per inch.
Error diffusion High-quality halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image production based on black-and-white pixel binarization. A pixel's optical density and that of adjacent pixels are summed, with black pixels relocated in their order of density as they relate to adjacent pixels. The purpose of this technique is to minimize the average error between read and printed densities. Density data for adjacent pixels is modified by diffusing errors on the objective pixel into several pixels, which are then binarized.
Gamma A unit of changes of images' brightness. It is expressed as a function of the electric input power to devices (scanner, display, etc.) and an image's brightness. If the gamma rate is larger than 1, the brightness of an image increases and vice versa. In order to adjust the brithtness of an image close to the orignal, generally the gamma value is set to 1. Gray scale A method for realizing the gradation from black to white on the scanned image.
ISIS (Image Scanner Interface Specification) A standard of API (Application Program Interface) or protocol for imaging devices (scanners, digital cameras, etc.) developed by Pixel Translations, a division of Captiva Software. In order to use imaging devices designed on the ISIS standard, it is necessary to install the driver software of the same standard. Jaggy images Images that have sharp projections or irregular shape on their edges.
Moire Patterns Recurrent patterns on scanned images caused by incorrect settings of angles. Noise removal Isolated noise from an image appearing as black spots in white areas and voids in black areas is removed to improve image quality. Removes particles from the document image. Common particles include toner and fax particles. Noise reduction works via an algorithm that removes pixels up to 5 x 5 dots appart. A dot is 1/400 inch.
Pick roller Roller(s) that picks the page from the batch of paper in the paper chute and feed it into the ADF. Pick start time The period from the manual insertion of the document until picking starts after the document passes the hopper empty sensor. Pixel (Picture Element) The tiny dots that make up a scanned image. Portrait Orientation of documents or images. Documents/images are set or displayed vertically.
Smoothing A process that eliminates "jaggies" from slanted lines and curves. Irregular convexities are deleted and irregular concavities filled in. This is useful in OCR applications, for example. Storage temperature/humidity The temperature and humidity levels necessary for proper storage of the scanner. Temporary Error An error that can be fixed by the operator. Terminator Devices with a SCSI interface can be daisy-chained.
Ultrasonic sensor A type of sensor for detecting multi feeding by ultrasonic sound. Scanners detect multi feeding by recognizing differences in the amount of ultrasonic waves that penetrates the documents. USB (Universal Serial Bus) An abbreviation for "Universal Serial Bus". A standard for interfaces used to connect devices such as key boards, scanners, etc. Up to 127 devices can be connected through this interface. USB devices can be plugged/unplugged without turning off their power.
