When the Kofax VRS module is installed, the VRS Settings tab will also be available for all destinations. Based on the selected destination, additional settings tabs may also be available. If you see one of these additional settings tabs please refer to the appropriate section, as listed below, for instructions on configuring these destination specific options.
Brightness—Sometimes an image is scanned with the brightness and contrast set too light or too dark. For example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility. Increasing or decreasing the brightness makes the scanned image lighter or darker. Contrast—The difference between the lighter and darker portions of the image. Increasing the contrast emphasizes the difference between the lighter and darker portions, decreasing the contrast de-emphasizes that difference.
• • • • Reduce moiré patterns—Moiré patterns are wavy, rippled lines that sometimes appear on the scanned images of photographs or illustrations, particularly newspaper and magazine illustrations. Selecting Reduce moiré patterns will limit or eliminate moiré patterns in the scanned image. This option is only available when scanning in Color or Grayscale at lower resolutions, and when the scanner supports this feature.
• Color Filter—Color filter is the ability of your scanner to automatically remove a color from a scanned image. For example, if you are scanning a letter with a red watermark, you can choose to filter out the red so the scanned letter just shows the text and not the red watermark. Color filter applies to Black & White or Grayscale scanning modes. The original with a red watermark over black text. • The scanned item with the red filtered out.
Redaction Settings Tab Use the options on the Redaction Settings tab to remove a specified area in the scanned image. Please refer to the technical note, at the end of this section, for information about how this setting works with other options in the One Touch Scan Configuration you are modifying. Enable redaction—Select this option to enable redaction when scanning. You might use this option if you want to remove a logo or image that appears on each page that you are scanning.
• • Back—This is the Duplex side of the page. The area(s) specified for the Back will only apply to the Duplex side of the page when scanning in Duplex. Therefore, if you scan 4 double-sided pages, the resulting image file(s) will have redacted areas on pages 2, 4, 6, and 8. Both—Select this option if you want to specify an area that appears in the same place on both sides of the page, such as a company logo, so you don’t have to specify the same area separately for both the front and back.
Preview—This color field shows the actual color that will fill the redaction area in the final scanned image. When scanning in color, the Preview field will match the Color field. When scanning in Grayscale, the preview field will show the gray version of the color you selected, and that color will be in the final scanned image.
File Formats The available file formats, in the Select format panel, are based on the selected destination for scanning. For example, if scanning to the destination Transfer to Storage, all file formats are available as the files are saved directly to a folder without opening any application. If the destination is an application, such as Microsoft’s Paint, only the file types the application supports will be available in the Select format panel.
Image Formats Select an image file format for photos, artwork or other documents that you want to save as images. BMP and TIFF are standard image file formats generally used if you want to do additional image processing, such as photo touch-up or color correction. Right-click on the BMP icon to access the GIF and PNG image formats. When you select either of these formats, the format panel will change the BMP icon to the selected image format icon. BMP—The *.
Right-click on the JPG icon to access the JP2 image format. When you select JP2, the format panel will change the JPG icon to the JP2 format icon. JPG—The *.jpg (joint photographic experts group) format is a common image format for transferring pictures electronically, such as posting to a website or sending via email, as JPG image files are smaller than BMP and TIFF files. You can change the level of compression for the picture file to have better quality or a smaller file size. JP2—The *.
Right-click on the PDF format icon to change the image quality or select the option to make the scanned PDF file PDF-A compliant. PDF—the *.pdf (portable document format) image format is often used to create images of text pages. The image compression of PDF files creates relatively small file sizes when scanning multiple page files in color. While the TIFF image format also supports multiple page files, when scanning in color the TIFF files are often too large to be transferred electronically.
Detailed information about these text file formats, and instructions for setting up the OCR options, are in the section Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on page 118. To select a file type for the text format: 1. 2. 3. 4. Select the Destination Application. Right-click on the text format icon. The menu options depend on the type of Destination Application you select. Choose the file type that you want for the text format. Click OK or Apply on the One Touch Properties window.

Safety Precautions When servicing the scanner you should take the following precautions to ensure your safety and prevent damage to the scanner. Do These • Wear protective gloves when cleaning the scanner with Isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Rubbing alcohol may irritate sensitive skin. • Only perform scanner maintenance as described in this chapter. • Keep the scanner and cleaning supplies away from any open flame or heat source as any form of alcohol is flammable.
Clearing Paper Jams If your scanner stops scanning due to a paper jam in the Automatic Document Feeder, a warning opens after a few moments. 1. Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover. 2. Remove the jammed paper and close the cover.
Cleaning the Scanner Cleaning the inside of the scanner helps to keep your scanner operating at optimum performance. You should clean the inside of the scanner at least once a week or after 1,000 pages have been scanned. If you are getting frequent paper jams, multiple pages feeding at the same time, or you’re seeing lines in the scanned image, it is time to clean the scanner. NOTE: Be careful when cleaning the rollers.
4. Locate the Free rollers in the underside of the ADF door. Wipe the Free rollers from side to side. Rotate the rollers downward to clean the entire surface of each roller. Free rollers 5. 6. Locate the Drive rollers in the body of the ADF. There are two pairs of drive rollers, make sure to clean both sets. Wipe the Drive rollers from side to side. Rotate the rollers downward to clean the entire surface of each roller. The Drive rollers are held tightly in place and they are hard to rotate.
If any residue remains after wiping the glass with a dry cloth, try adding a few drops of Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) to the cloth and wipe off the residue.
Replace the ADF Pad Assembly The ADF pad will wear out and is designed to be a user-replaceable part. Problems with documents feeding into the ADF is an indication that the pad is wearing thin. You received a replacement pad in the original scanner box, and you can also order a new one. See the Xerox DocuMate 3460 Parts List on page 164 for ordering information. 1. Press the ADF cover release on the top left of the scanner body to open the Automatic Document Feeder cover. 2.
Replacing the Roller Assembly After extended use, the feed roller may wear out. It is a user-replaceable part and can be reordered. Frequent paper jams are a symptom of a worn roller assembly. A worn roller can cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple pages to feed at the same time. A worn roller should be replaced to avoid damage to the scanner’s internal parts. Before replacing the roller you should clean it as excessive dust on the roller will make it appear worn and smooth.
3. The roller is held in place with a lock tab that rotates to lock and unlock it. To unlock the tab, rotate it down until the small lock flange is completely free. 4. Use the lock flange to slide the silver bar to the left to release the bar from the feed roller. 5. Slide the roller to the left to release it from the bar and pins on the right. Remove the roller from the scanner and discard it, it cannot be repaired. 6.
7. Place the roller in the scanner, make sure to align the slots on the roller bar. 8. Slide the roller bar to right into the roller. 9. Rotate the lock flange up to lock the roller in place. The lock will “click” into place when it is secure. However, if it does not rotate easily into the housing, make sure the flange is properly seating in its latch. 10. Close the scanner when you’re finished.
Troubleshooting In addition to the troubleshooting information contained in this section, please see the Readme file on your installation disc. The Readme file contains additional information that may help you diagnose problems with the scanner. If you try the troubleshooting procedures described in this section and in the Readme file, and the scanner still has problems, visit our web site at www.xeroxscanners.com for additional technical information. Problem: The scanner won’t scan.
Problem: The paper jams the ADF. To reduce the number of paper jams, smooth and straighten the paper before scanning, and adjust the guides to the paper size. Paper fed into the ADF at an angle can cause the feed mechanism to jam. If paper jams are occurring more frequently, try cleaning the roller with a soft cloth dampened with Isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Excessive dust on the roller can make it appear worn and will cause issues feeding paper. See Cleaning the Scanner on page 152 for cleaning instructions.
