Operating the Scanner

Overview

This chapter provides instructions for selecting modes, using temporary
operating values and feeding documents using either the semi-
automatic feeder or the automatic feeder.

The scanning process consists of the following steps:

1. Prepare the scanner for operation (refer to Chapter 2,

Getting

Started for more information.)

2. The scanner is enabled by the host system.

3. Select a mode for the application. Typically the host computer

performs this step, but it may also be performed by the operator.

4. Select temporary operating values (if required).

5. Press

the

Run key.

6. Feed documents into the transport (refer to

Feeding Documents

using the semi-automatic (or automatic) feeder later in this chapter).

The scanner assigns a sequential ID number (for digital image

storage), the document image level and image address.

The document is scanned.

The document image header is created.

The host computer initiates transfer of the document image

header and document image to the host system for storage on
magnetic or optical disk media.

Documents are deposited in the exit hopper, face down, in the

order in which they were fed into the transport.

7. Press

the

Stop key.

8. Press

P2 or enter function code F38 to indicate end-of-job.

9. Turn off the side panel switch.

NOTE: If the scanner will not be used for 8 hours or more, turn off

the main power switch.
