and white images (1 bit per pixel). The optimal setting is 26U.

0U Document image filter off (default)

26U Apply document image filter for typical document image

nU Apply document image filter using grayscale threshold n. Use

lower numbers when the image contrast is lower. 1U will have a

similar effect to 22e. Range: 0-255.

V - Blur Image: Smoothes transitions by averaging the pixels next

to the hard edges of defined lines and shaded areas in an image.
0V Don’t blur (default)

1V Blur

W - Histogram Ship: A histogram gives a quick picture of the

tonal range of an image, or key type. A low-key image has detail

concentrated in the shadows; a high-key image has detail

concentrated in the highlights; and an average-key image has detail

concentrated in the midtones. This modifier ships the histogram

for an image.
0W Don’t ship histogram (default)

1W Ship histogram

Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX

IMGBOX commands can only be used with PDF417, Code 39,

Code 128, Aztec, Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5 symbologies.

Intelligent signature capture ships only part of an image to the host

application. This method reduces transfer time and file size, while

simplifying signature capture. Below is an example of an

intelligent signature capture application. In this example, the

operator reads the bar code, which is then transmitted to the host

application. Upon the receipt of the bar code data, the host

application sends the IMGBOX command, which tells the scanner

to output only the area of the image corresponding to the signature

capture box. The scanner also automatically adjusts for aspect ratio

and distortion, issues that arise due to scanner skew with respect to

the bar code. Align the aimers with the signature area (not with the

bar code), then activate the trigger. Send the IMGBOX command

string after the trigger command.
