Command and Response Basic command/response sequence Data is transmitted between the host computer and the image scanner in the form of commands and responses. Figure 3.5 shows the basic command/response sequence.
Notes: 1. Abnormal reception means that a parity error, framing error, overrun error, or count error has occurred. 2. Command or response transmission is retried only twice. 3. Upon reception, a command or response is checked for transmission errors. When the check result has no problem, ACK is returned immediately to the originating source. When the check result has problem, data other than ACK is returned after all data has been received.
Command/response format The command/response format is as follows. CNT CMD/RPS TEXT Additional field CNT (count) field The total number of bytes in the command/response to be transmitted is represented. CMD/RPS field A command or response code is indicated. TEXT field Additional information for a command/response, called control or device information, is indicated. Additional field In some commands, additional field exists next to TEXT field.
Command Commands sent from the host computer to the scanner are as listed in Table 3.6. The scanner commands are as follows: Table 3.6 Commands Command name INTERFACE SPECIFICATIONS Command Details code CLEAR 44 This command initializes the scanner.

CHAPTER 6 DOCUMENT SPECIFICATION This chapter provides document specification (size, type, limitations, grounding color area, drop-out color, and job separation sheet) for the scanner. Document Size Figure 6.1 shows document sizes which the scanner can read. For M3099EH, however, maximum size of A3 can be fed through the scanner. DOCUMENT SPECIFICATION A B Feeding direction (Unit: mm) Scanner Maximum Minimum A B A B M3099EH 216 356 76 63 M3099EX 297 432 76 63 Figure 6.
Document Quality This section provides document types and weights available for the scanner, with precautions. Document type The recommended paper type for document is as follows: NOTICE Use specified paper only. (In rare occasion, double feeding may occur or document damage may occur.) • Fine paper • Plain paper (For example the paper specified for XEROX 4024) • OCR paper When using all other type paper, check that it is successfully fed by ADF before performing a reading operation.
• Paper thickness is not constant. (like envelope) • Paper has large rumples or curl. (See Note in next page) • Paper has folds or tears. • Tracing paper • Coating paper • Carbon paper • Carbonless paper • Paper size; smaller than 76 mm x 63 mm size, or larger than A3 width. • Other than paper; clothes, metal foil, or OHP film. • Photographic paper • Paper has notches on its side. • Shape is other than square.
Note: • If carbonless papers are used, clean the roller twice as often as usual. • Paper should be straightend to fit the condition below. Less than 3 mm More than 30 mm Feed direction Less than 5 mm More than 30 mm Feed direction Read surface Read surface Top of the paper Document Limitations Top of the paper This section provides restrictions on document used for the scanner. Areas that must not be perforated Perforations are prohibited in the shaded area of Figure 6.
Print prohibit areas on the front and back surfaces Printing in area A on the front of a document may, in rare case, cause a document size detection error. Printing in area B on the front and back of a document may, in rare case, result a double feed error. Figure 6.3 shows print prohibit areas on the front and back surfaces. Note: Figure 6.3 shows the document as viewed from the reading surface.
Grounding Color Area As Figure 6.4 shows, the top 3-mm part of the read area on each surface should be left blank (grounding color) by specifying a dropout color. If the drop-out color cannot be specified, select “Photo” for the document type (line drawing or photograph). For details of the drop-out color, see next Section. Main scanning direction Reading reference Grounding color (white) or drop-out color area Subscanning direction 3 Figure 6.
Drop-out Color A drop-out color is color visible by a human eye but not visible to the scanner. To check the grounding color of document for a drop-out color, use the method and follow the standards given below. Print density measurement The spectrum chart shows in Figure 6.5 is used to measure print density. The measurement must be made in one of the following ways: • A light source using fluorescent G54 • Macbeth PCS meter PCM II is used, which requires a filter.
Job Separation Sheet Shape The following Figure 6.6 shows the basic of the document. Scanning direction 15 15 Center of document (Unit: mm) more than 210 mm Figure 6.6 Shape of document Document type The document type and ream weight specifications given in page 62.

Glossary of Terms A4 size A standard paper size used in Japan and other countries. Paper is 210 x 297 mm (8.25 x 11.6 inches). ASCII The acronym for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. ASCII is a set of 256 codes (numbered 0 to 255) used to communicate information between a computer and another device such as a scanner. Automatic separation The image processing method to detect the difference between text and photos and choose the thresholding accordingly.
Endorser The unit for printing characters before or after scanning. These characters may be used for collation of the documents and the image data. (See Appendix A) Equipment error An error which the operator can not recover, such as optical system alarm, temperature alarm and so on. It is necessary to make contact manufacturer's authorized service center for paper repair service. Error diffusion High-quality halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image production base on black-and-white pixel binarization.
Image emphasis Density is decreased for lighter but not completely white areas adjacent to black areas. Weakening this emphasis eliminates spot noise or produces softened images. Interface The connection that allows communication from one part of a system to another. For example, electrical signals are transferred between the computer and scanner over an interface cable. Inversion (Reverse-image reading) In reverse-image reading, data is changed from black to white and vice versa.
Operator panel A panel containing the scanner indicators and buttons. The operator panel is used to control scanner operations such as loading document selecting features, and changing setup options. Outline extraction The boundary between black and white areas is traced and the outline extracted for closed areas. RS-232C interface A type of serial interface. See Serial interface.
