HP ScanJet Pro 4500 fn1 - Manual (Page 30)

Scan long or extra-long documents (Windows)
By default, the scanner automatically detects page size using the Auto Detect Size selection for page lengths
less than or equal to 356 mm (14 in).
For long or extra-long documents, select Long (8.5 x 34 inches) or Extra Long (8.5 x 122 inches) from the
page size drop-down list in the scan shortcut settings.
NOTE: Only one page at a time can be scanned when using a long or extra-long page setting.
If the scanner is set to scan long or extra-long pages, it will scan one page at a time. Using this setting to scan
regular pages will slow down the process and should only be used to scan pages longer than 356 mm (14 in).
Detect multi-feeds
The multi-feed detection feature stops the scan process if it senses that multiple pages are fed into the
scanner at one time. This feature is enabled by default.
Disabling this feature might be helpful when scanning:
● Multipart forms (a use that HP does not recommend).
● Documents which have labels or sticky notes attached to them.
NOTE: Use the ISIS or WIA user interface to enable multi-feed detection when scanning from non-HP
software.
Everyday Scan
The Everyday Scan shortcut allows users to define and save a scan shortcut for their everyday needs. The
following Scan Shortcut Settings are customizable when the Everyday Scan shortcut is selected:
● Item Type
● Page Sides
● Page Size
● Color Mode
● Destination/File Type
Filter out color from a document (color dropout) (Windows)
You can filter out a color channel (red, green, or blue) or up to three individual colors. For specific colors, the
sensitivity setting controls how closely a scanned color must approximate the specified color.
Removing colors from the scan might reduce the scan file size and improve optical character recognition
(OCR) results.
To select colors to eliminate from a scan in an HP Smart Document Scan Software profile, follow these steps:
1. Open the HP Scan Software.
2. Scan a sample page, which has the colors to be dropped, into the viewer.
