This scanner can scan documents at high speed, regardless of the image type (monochrome / color).  
Background Color Switch Function  
Using the software, you can switch the background color of scanned images between white and black.

pressing the Skip button. When you scan documents that include items that you do not want to be detected  
as double feeding (for example, documents that have receipts attached, envelopes, etc.), the double feed  
detection function can be enabled and still scan these documents.

Scanning is started by selecting from settings that have been registered in advance with the cursor button,  
and then pressing the scanner’s OK button*1 or Start/Stop button*2. This scanner also has a function that

Notes about Double Feed Detection  
This unit uses an ultrasonic sensor to detect double feeding (where two or more sheets of a document are fed  
at the same time).  
Double feeding cannot be detected with unsupported paper types.  
Even with supported types of cards, scanning them in portrait orientation may result in the detection of a  
double feed. In this case, try scanning them in landscape orientation, or disable the double feed detection.  
Documents must be 70 mm (2.8 in.) or longer for double feed detection to function.

Using the Mixed Batch Card Guide  
Set paper documents on the feed tray, and a card on the mixed batch card guide respectively.  
The card set on the mixed batch card guide is fed after completing the paper document scanning.  
The mixed batch card guide is suitable for the following card type.  
ISO format card:  
Size:  
85.6 ´ 54 mm (3.4 ´ 2.1 in.)  
Thickness:  
0.76 mm (0.03 in.)  
Embossed card is also available.  
Set the card in landscape orientation.  
A maximum of 3 cards can be set in the mixed batch card guide.  
Ensure that the embossed portions of cards do not stick together.  
If acceptable results cannot be obtained, try changing the scanning orientation or reversing the scan face  
of the card, and then perform scanning again.  
Note  
When using the mixed batch card guide, the document guides cannot be adjusted to less than A5 size.  
Make sure that the total height of the paper on the feed tray does not exceed 2 mm (0.08 in.). (This is  
equivalent to about 20 sheets at 80 g/m² [21 lb.].)

example, the color of a highlighter pen  
may be scanned lighter than it  
appears.

the scanning conditions may solve  
this problem.

the scanned documents.  
Clean the scanning glasses.  
The scanning glasses are dirty.

combined with patterns within the  
scanned image, may cause this  
problem.  
There is noise or wave  
patterns (moire pattern) on  
the scanned image.  
Change the scanning resolution, and  
perform scanning again.  
If the length of documents are less  
than about 148 mm (5.8 in.), feeding  
speed control will be activated for  
exiting documents; this is normal  
behavior.  
The sound made by paper  
being ejected is higher than  
usual when you scan short  
documents.
