Kodak scanners have been tested with a range of documents that
represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most
common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is
achieved when you scan documents within the recommended document
specifications listed below. Scanning documents that are outside of these
specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanner
reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.
Document preparation
Before you start scanning, make sure the documents can be fed through
the scanner easily. Best performance is obtained by feeding a good, clean
lead edge. This means the side of the paper which enters the feeder first
should be in the best possible condition.
Use the guidelines below when preparing your documents for scanning.
·
·
·
Remove staples, rubber bands, loose mending tape or paper clips.
Straighten wrinkled edges and tape any torn documents.
Trim ragged edges (steno paper, perforated edges, tractor feed
edges). If ragged edges cannot be trimmed, it is suggested that you
try different feeding orientations to determine which orientation feeds
best.
·
A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged to
have a common leading edge. Documents may be left-, right-, or
center-aligned in the elevator tray allowing the documents to be fed
into the scanner one at a time.
IMPORTANT: Proper alignment of documents is very important.
Documents must be fed under both feed module tires.
Gap release lever
Feed module tires
·
Torn, damaged, or crushed pages can be transported successfully
through the scanner. However, no scanner can transport every
possible type of damaged paper. If damaged documents do not feed
through the transport automatically, feed the documents manually.
Use of the gap release lever may be required.

·
For heavily damaged documents, a clear document protector can be
used with the following limitations:
– Manual feeding is recommended when using a clear document
protector.
– The document in the clear document protector must be fed under
both feed module tires.
– Multi-feed detection must be disabled when manually feeding a
document in a clear document protector.
NOTE: When using a document protector, feed the fold of the
document protector first rather than the open end.
The correct document preparation when using a document protector
is illustrated below:
Acceptable document
materials
·
Original and recycled papers
·
·
·
Photographic papers
Bond (i.e., laser, inkjet, etc.)
Carbonless paper (some types of carbonless papers contain
chemicals that may react with feed module and separation tires
possibly requiring more frequent tire changes)
·
Offset printing papers (i.e., newspapers, magazine pages)
Recommended paper
weights
The elevator tray handles a broad range of paper weights, from 50g (13
lb.) bond paper to 200g (110 lb.) index paper. Heavier documents may be
fed up to 0.76 mm (0.030 in.). Manual feeding mode, using the gap
release lever, may be required to feed heavier paper weights.
Acceptable document
sizes
·
Length:
– Maximum of 76.2 cm (30 in.) with operator-assisted document
feeding and stacking. 43.2 cm (17 in.) is the maximum length for
unattended document feeding.
– Minimum of 6.4 cm (2.5 in.).
·
Width:
– Maximum of 29.7 cm (11.7 in./image capture – 12 in./transport)
(A3 width)
– Minimum for automatic feeding of 8.9 cm (3.5 in.)
– Minimum for manual feeding of 6.4 cm (2.5 in.)

Maximum document
batch height for
automatic feeding
When feeding batched documents, the maximum height of the batched
documents is 10.2 cm (4 in.), approximately 1000 sheets of 75g (20 lb.)
paper. The elevator tray can be set to accommodate 25-, 250- 500-, 750-
1000-document stacks.
Downward and upward
curl documents
The elevator tray can handle some amount of lead edge curl, but to
ensure reliable feeding the curl should be at a minimum. It is suggested
that you try and minimize the curl before scanning by stacking the
documents on a flat surface for a period of time to help flatten the
documents.
To accommodate multiple applications with variable feeding requirements,
the side guides can be adjusted for center- or edge-feeding. Center-
feeding is recommended for best paper handling performance. The side
guides can be moved together or independently.
Adjusting the side
guides on the input
tray
1. Pull the guides all the way out and then push them together (toward
the center) to reset.
2. Open the side guides slightly wider than the documents you will be
feeding.
3. Place the documents in the elevator tray.
4. Adjust the side guides to fit the documents.

Different paper types stack differently. The output tray can be set with
either the front or the rear higher for best stacking.
Adjusting the output
tray
To angle the output tray so the back of the output tray is higher:
1. Lift the output tray up and pull it out of its current slot.
2. Reset it in the slot that matches the desired height.
To angle the output tray so the front of the output tray is higher:
·
Lift the front of the output tray up, swing the height adjustment leg out
and insert it into the groove below the output tray.
NOTE: Short side guides are standard on the output tray. However, tall
side guides and self-centering parts are included and can be
changed by you. See Chapter 5, Maintenance for procedures.

document and utilize document management systems such as batching
and time-stamping.
The Document Printer
The Document Printer 1 provides a print capability that is programmed to
support alphanumeric characters as defined by the host. It supports date,
image address, time, document count and custom messages. All print
information is captured in a document header record. All printer controls
and functions are accessible via the ISIS and TWAIN drivers.
Printed information
The information printed by the Document Printer is defined during
application setup by your system administrator or integrator.
Any combination of the following items can be printed, provided the total
length does not exceed 40 characters.
·
Document image address (any, all or none of the four image address
fields, in any order)

The Patch Reader allows you to automatically increment the image
address or initiate a special function. Patch sheets are placed in front of
each document during document preparation or on the lead sheet of a
document.
The Patch Reader
There are 5 possible patch head positions. The patch head position can
be easily changed. Recognition of all patch types will be returned in the
image header. This is in addition to document level information.
See Kodak publication A-61599, Patch Code Information, for complete
information.
Patch types
Patch Types 1, 4 and 6 ¾ these patch types can be used by the host for
post-scan image control (they are not used for image addressing). For
example, use these patch types for changing between bi-tonal and color
imaging or workflow control.
IMPORTANT: Do not use these illustrated patches for production – they
are not to spec.

Patch Types 2, 3 and T ¾ these patch types are used for image
addressing. When the Patch Reader detects a patch, it automatically
assigns a new image address to the new document. This eliminates the
task of trying to determine where one document stops and the next starts
when you are viewing electronic images. It provides a hierarchical
document structure and offers an auto-batching alternative.
The Patch Reader controls document level changes by automatically
sensing a predefined patch code and changing the document level
accordingly.
IMPORTANT: Do not use these illustrated patches for production – they
are not to spec.
Patch 2 ¾ assigns a Level 2
to the current document
Patch 3 ¾ assigns a Level 3
to the current document
Patch T/Transfer Patch ¾
assigns a predetermined level
to the next document
The Transfer Patch Definition is also defined by the application. The
Transfer Patch Definition controls the level assigned to the next document
when a Transfer Patch is used. For example, if the Transfer Patch
Definition for the current operation is defined as Level 3 and a Transfer
Patch is used, the next document will be assigned Level 3.

Feed Module Separation Roller – it is recommended that you install
a new feed module approximately every 5th tire change. See the
checklist included in the Replenishment Kit. Install a new feed module
and separation roller at the same time.
·
·
Pre-separation Pad – change each time you change the tires on the
feed module and separation roller.
Exposure Lamps – it is suggested that all four lamps be replaced
every 500 hours of operation or as necessary (i.e., as reported by the
scanner, repeated image calibration failures, etc.)
