Scanning from the Automatic Document Feeder  
(ADF)  
Documents to Avoid Scanning  
The documents in this list can be scanned, but please note that scanning documents of this type will reduce the life  
of the scanner. Maintenance will be required more often and replaceable parts will wear faster. These types of  
documents will jam more frequently and damage to the original documents may occur. If you do choose to scan  
these document types, do not scan large batches. This type of use is not covered under the scanner warranty and  
alters replacement parts life expectancy.  
We recommend you limit the amount or completely avoid scanning documents that are in this list.  
Curled, wrinkled or folded documents may cause paper jams or multiple pages being fed through the scanner  
at one time.  
Perforated or punched paper that could tear when the separation roller engages.  
Coated paper or photographs where the coating can flake off during scanning and leave residue in the  
scanner.  
Extremely smooth, shiny, or highly textured paper may cause the paper feed rollers to slip across the page and  
cause the scanner to report a paper jam.  
Carbonless copy paper may tear while being fed through the scanner and the pressure of the rollers may leave  
streaks on the page. The chemical coating on this paper will rub off on the rollers during the scan process,  
increasing the frequency of miss-feeds and paper jams.  
Partially transparent paper such as tracing paper as any images from the opposite side of the page or black  
background will appear in the scanned images.  
Unsupported Document Types  
Do not scan the following types of documents as they may cause damage to the scanner.  
Items outside of the specified supported sizes, thickness, and weight defined in this document.  
Non-rectangular or irregularly shaped paper will cause the scanner to detect and report document skew errors  
or paper jams.  
Carbon paper that will leave residue in the scanner and on the rollers that will transfer to the next set of  
documents scanned.  
Documents with hard items attached such as paper clips, binder clips, and staples.  
Documents with wet ink or white-out.  
Thermal or photosensitive paper.  
Overhead projector sheets, plastic film, camera film, and any other type of transparent or partially transparent  
plastic item.  
Documents that have been glued together.  
Cloth or metallic sheets.

Scanning Interfaces  
If you selected the recommended installation options, then you have several different options to scan with your  
Xerox® DocuMate® 4830 scanner.  
OneTouch Control Panel—When you press the Simplex or Duplex button on the scanner, the scanner starts  
scanning using the settings for the current LED number. The scanned image is then sent to a destination on  
your computer or network drive.  
OneTouch Button Panel—Use this scan option when you want to scan from the computer screen. Scanning  
from the on-screen OneTouch Button Panel is the same as selecting a scanning option on the scanner, except  
you click an icon that represents the function.  
TWAIN Interface—This option uses your scanner’s TWAIN interface to scan. Select scanning options before  
scanning, put the document in the scanner, then click the Scan button in the TWAIN interface window.  
ISIS Interface—This option uses the ISIS interface for scanning. Select the ISIS scan settings, put the  
document in the scanner, then click the Preview Scan button in the ISIS window.

The OneTouch Button Panel, that you see on the computer screen, shows the pre-set function for each button (such  
as Email) and the icon of the destination (called the Destination Application) where the images will be sent when  
scanning is finished.  
The OneTouch button panel shows

Default OneTouch Settings  
When you installed the scanner, the software configured each OneTouch button with appropriate settings  
consisting of: a Destination Application, a Scan Configuration, and a File Format. The button names, such as Email  
or Copy, indicate the original factory settings for a button. You can change any of these settings. Please see  
For example, the Email button is set up to scan documents then immediately attach them to a new email message  
in your default email program. The email application will default to the email program specified in the internet  
options of Internet Explorer.  
A folder icon for a button means that the button is set up to archive the scanned item. The scanner sends the  
scanned image directly to a folder without opening the image first in a software application.  
A question mark for a button means your computer does not have the appropriate software or hardware for the  
initial factory settings.  
If the OneTouch OmniPage Module is not installed, then the options for sending to word processing applications  
such as Microsoft Word will not be available. The OneTouch OmniPage module is installed automatically when you  
install Visioneer OneTouch from the installation disc.  
Note: The default page size in each configuration is based on your computer’s Windows Measurement system  
selection of U.S. (United States) or Metric units.  
If U.S. is the selected measurement, the default page size in each profile will be based on the United States  
standard paper sizes such as 8.5 x 11 inches.  
If Metric is the selected measurement, the default page size in each profile is based on the ISO 216 standard  
and the majority of the profiles will default to A4.

Enable scanning to multiple destinations—select this option to allow for multiple destinations to be selected, in  
the destination list, on the OneTouch configuration tab. This feature allows you to scan one time while distributing  
the file to multiple destinations. Please refer to Scanning to Multiple Destinations on page 109.  
Instant delivery—enables image transfer to the destination while scanning is in progress, provided that Create  
Single Image Files is also selected. If Create single image files is not selected, image transfer occurs after all pages  
have been scanned.  
Show progress window—select this option to display the progress window of the document(s) during scanning.  
Use job separator when scanning multiple pages—select this option to have the scanner separate multiple page  
scan jobs into separate files when scanning is complete.  
When a blank page is detected—select this option to have a new file created each time a blank page is  
detected in the stack of pages being scanned. Note that when scanning duplex, both sides of the page must  
be blank.  
When the number of images reaches—select this option, and input a number in the box, to have a new file  
created each time the number of images scanned reaches the number you input in this field. Note that when  
scanning duplex, the number of images detected is twice the number of pages scanned. For example, if you  
input “5” in the field, and scan 10 pages, 20 images are captured, and you will get 4 separate files with 5  
images in each file.  
Please refer to Scanning with Job Separation on page 112 for detailed information about scanning with job  
separation, and how it works with other options in OneTouch.  
Use custom file naming—select this option to enable the input field so that you can specify the file name for your  
scanned document(s). You can specify a different file name for each OneTouch button. When this option is not  
select, the file name is automatically generated by OneTouch for all scans.  
The preview area, to the right of the Use custom file naming text, shows an example of the filename as you  
type into the input field and/or select token options from the list.  
Type the file name you want into the input field. Note that you cannot input these characters in a file name: \ /  
: * ? “ < > |  
When inputting a file name, the file name must be unique, otherwise every scan created would overwrite the  
previous scan. The menu to the right of the input field contains a list of tokens you can select to create unique  
file names. These tokens include counting numbers, date and time values, number of pages scanned, and so  
on. If the button name is not unique, you will see an on-screen notification that a {BatchID} and {#b} will be  
inserted into the name.  
Click the down arrow and selected a token value from the list, then click the arrow button to add that value to  
the file name field. The token values are:  
{FN}—inserts the scanner name.  
{#b}—inserts the image number without adding zero (1).

{D}—inserts the numeric day of the month without a zero added to single-digit days (4).  
{DD}—inserts the numeric day of the month with a zero added to single-digit days (04).  
{DDD}—inserts the abbreviated 3-letter day (Mon).  
{DDDD}—inserts the full name of the day (Monday).  
{M}—inserts the numeric month without a zero added to single-digit months (8).  
{MM}—inserts the numeric month with a zero added to single-digit months (08).  
{MMM}—inserts the abbreviated 3-letter month (Aug).  
{MMMM}—inserts the full name of the month (August).  
{YY}—inserts the two-digit year (97).  
{YYYY}—inserts the four-digit year (1997).  
{h}—inserts the 12-hour clock hour without a zero added to single-digit time values (2).

Technical Note  
Some destination application links require a specific filename format for the images that have been sent to the link  
to open correctly in the application. For example, when scanning duplex, if the image token {#03b} is not included  
in the filename, then each image sent will be regarded as a separate scan, and instead of one file with 2 pages you  
will have 2 files. As each destination application link is different, there is no standard filename type you can create to  
use for all destinations. If you scan and the images are not grouped in the file(s) as needed, try deselecting Use  
custom file naming and then scan again.

Resolution—drag the slider to the right or left to adjust the dots per inch (dpi) of the resolution. The higher the dpi  
setting, the sharper and clearer the scanned image. However, higher dpi settings take longer to scan and produce  
larger files for the scanned images.  
Brightness—sometimes an image is scanned with the brightness and contrast set too light or too dark. For  
example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility. Increasing or  
decreasing the brightness makes the scanned image lighter or darker.  
Contrast—the difference between the lighter and darker portions of the image. Increasing the contrast emphasizes  
the difference between the lighter and darker portions, decreasing the contrast de-emphasizes that difference.

Invert image—reverses the color of each pixel in the scanned image.  
When scanning in black and white, each pixel is reversed from black to white and white to black. When  
scanning in grayscale each pixel is reversed to the opposite level of gray. When scanning in color each pixel is  
reversed to the opposite color in the color wheel.  
For example, you might choose this option if you are scanning pages that have been printed from newspaper  
microfilm. Newspaper microfilm reverses black and white so that when viewed on a monitor, the text is white  
and the paper is black.  
The following example shows the original grayscale image and the inverted image.

File Formats  
The available file formats, in the Select format panel, are based on the selected destination for scanning. For  
example, if scanning to the destination Transfer to Storage, all file formats are available as the files are saved  
directly to a folder without opening any application. If the destination is an application, such as Microsoft’s Paint,  
only the file types the application supports will be available in the Select format panel.  
Most of the format icons have a right-click menu to select file format specific options, or choose additional formats  
that are not represented in the panel by default.  
The format names in the Select format panel indicates the file type extension for the scanned file.  
Text Formats;  
TEXT is only one of  
several text  
formats available.  
Image Formats. The BMP, JPG,  
and PDF image formats have  
right-click menu options.  
Create Single Image Files  
The TIFF and PDF formats, as well as the text file formats, support multiple page documents in a single file. If you  
are scanning as a TIFF or PDF format, or as one of the text formats, and want one file created for each image  
scanned, select Create single image files. Note that this option is automatically selected and disabled if you have  
selected a format that only supports single pages, such as BMP, PNG, GIF, or JPG.  
Image Formats  
Select an image file format for photos, artwork or other documents that you want to save as images. BMP and TIFF  
are standard image file formats generally used if you want to do additional image processing, such as photo touch-  
up or color correction.

Right-click on the BMP icon to access the GIF and PNG image formats. When you select either of these formats, the  
format panel will change the BMP icon to the selected image format icon.  
BMP—the *.bmp (bitmap) format is generally used when you want to do additional  
image processing, such as photo touch-up or color correction, as very little image  
compression is used when creating the file. When scanning in color or grayscale, BMP  
scans result in the largest file size of the image formats.  
GIF—the *.gif (graphics interchange format) format is generally used when putting  
images on a website or server, as image compression can reduce the file size by  
approximately 95% when compared to a BMP file of the same image. Company logos  
and small pictures on a webpage are often GIF images. The GIF compression, and  
limited color range, can result in the medium and large images looking grainy or  
pixilated.  
PNG—the *.png (portable network graphics) format is another common image format  
for website graphics. Like GIF, the PNG compression greatly reduces the file size when  
compared to a BMP file of the same image. However, the PNG compression is different  
from GIF compression in that PNG images look better when scaled. Therefore, PNG is  
often used in place of GIF for company logos with a lot of detail, clickable buttons,  
medium sized pictures, and so on.  
TIFF—the *.tif (tagged image file format) format is another image type that is often  
used for photo editing. When scanning in color, it produces a file of similar quality and  
size to a BMP file. However, when scanning in Black & White, the TIF compression  
produces the smallest file size of all the image types without losing image quality. TIFF  
also supports multi-page image files.  
JPG—the *.jpg (joint photographic experts group) format is a common image format  
for transferring pictures electronically, such as posting to a website or sending via email,  
as JPG image files are smaller than BMP and TIFF files. You can change the level of  
compression for the picture file to have better quality or a smaller file size.  
To select a JPEG file size:  
1. Select JPG as the page format.  
2. Right-click on the JPG icon.  
A menu opens.

3. Choose the file size/image quality option for your scanned images.  
Minimize Size—smallest file size, lowest image quality.  
Normal—medium file size, some loss of image quality.  
Maximize Quality—largest file size, minimal loss of image quality.  
Your selection pertains only to the button currently selected on the OneTouch Properties window. Other  
buttons that have JPG selected as the file format are not affected, so you can set the JPG file size/image  
quality independently for each button.  
4. Click OK or Apply on the OneTouch Properties window.  
Right-click on the PDF format icon to change the image quality or select the option to make the scanned PDF file  
PDF-A compliant.  
PDF—the *.pdf (portable document format) image format is often used to create  
images of text pages. The image compression of PDF files creates relatively small file  
sizes when scanning multiple page files in color. While the TIFF image format also  
supports multiple page files, when scanning in color the TIFF files are often too large to  
be transferred electronically. The PDF file format is often used for posting multiple page  
files to websites, sending via email, and permanent storage. As with the JPG file format,  
you can change the PDF quality to reduce the file size or improve the image quality.  
®
®
Adobe Reader , or other PDF viewer software, must be installed on your computer for  
you to view PDF files.  
Using PDF-A when scanning as PDF, means the files are compliant with the ISO-19005-  
1 standard for permanent archival of electronic documents. More information about  
this standard can be found at www.pdfa.org.  
To select a PDF file size:  
1. Select PDF as the page format.  
2. Right-click on the PDF icon.  
A menu opens.  
3. Choose the file size/image quality option for your scanned images.  
Minimize Size—smallest file size, lowest image quality.

Your selection pertains only to the button currently selected on the OneTouch Properties window. Other  
buttons that have PDF selected as the file format are not affected, so you can set the PDF file size/image  
quality independently for each button.

2. The following window will open asking if you want to cancel the entire job.  
Yes—scanning stops and all pages scanned in this batch, up to this point, will be deleted. The TWAIN  
interface will close and you can restart your scan from the beginning.  
Choose Yes if the TWAIN scan settings are incorrect for your current scanning batch.  
For instance, the Picture Type is Black & White but you want to scan your documents in color. Choose Yes  
to delete any scanned pages, then start over but select the correct picture type before scanning.  
No—scanning stops, but all pages scanned in this batch, up to this point, are not deleted and the TWAIN  
interface remains open. You can place a new page in the scanner, adjust the TWAIN settings for it, then  
click the Scan button in the TWAIN interface to continue scanning. At the end of the scanning batch, all  
pages from the first portion of the scan and second will be sent to the Destination Application.  
Choose this option if, for instance, you have been scanning a Black & White document but you want to  
insert a color page into it. Instead of having to re-scan the entire batch, you can stop the current scan,  
change the picture type from Black & White to Color, then restart the scanning without losing the pages  
already scanned.

SMTP  
The SMTP destination link allows scans to be sent directly to an email address, through an SMTP server, from  
OneTouch. Please contact your server administrator for the server information you need to configure this link.  
Alternatively, have your site administrator or IT professional configure this link for you. Configuration of the SMTP  
server settings and user accounts is outside the scope of this document.  
Supported file types—all image and text file formats, except HTML, are available when scanning to an SMTP  
server. Note that text file formats are only available if an OCR module or application is installed. Please refer to Text  
Formats on page 66 to see a list of text file formats that are available when OCR is installed.  
Destination type—the SMTP destination is classified as a “Email Link”. To make it available in the destination list,  
you must select Email on the Options tab in the OneTouch Properties window.  
All configuration of the SMTP server is done using the SMTP Settings tab in the Scan Configuration Properties  
window.

Host—input the internet or intranet path of the server where you want to send the scanned documents. For  
example, smtp.company.com  
Port—input which port to use with the selected protocol. Changing the selected protocol will reset this value to  
the appropriate default for the protocol.  
User account—input the user account name that has privileges to send email messages through the SMTP  
server.

the transfer will fail.  
Email from—input the email address you want to appear in the email message “from” field.  
Limit (MB)—input the maximum message size limit set on the SMTP server. This number should be lower than  
or match the SMTP server maximum. You cannot send messages that exceed the maximum message size of  
the SMTP server.  
Because the destination configuration is done through the scan configuration, you can set each configuration to  
scan to a different SMTP server, send messages to different email addresses, using different user credentials, and so  
on. This is the same process used as when scanning to different folders using the Transfer to Storage destination, as  
described in detail starting on page 72.

Email Applications  
Scanning to an email application, such as Outlook or Windows Mail, attaches the scanned image to a blank email  
message. You then fill in the recipient email address(es) and send the message. You need to have configured an  
email application before you can scan to it using OneTouch. If you do not have your email application set up prior to  
scanning, the default Windows email application will open and ask you to configure your user information. Please  
contact your IT department, server administrator, or other group that provided you the email information for setup  
instructions. Configuring an email application and user account is outside the scope of this document.  
Supported file types—all image and text file formats, except HTML, are available when scanning to an email  
application. Note that text file formats are only available if an OCR module or application is installed. Please refer to  
Text Formats on page 66 to see a list of text file formats that are available when OCR is installed.

Text Editors  
Scanning to a text editing application, such as Microsoft’s Notepad or WordPad, automatically converts the text in  
the scanned image into editable text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR).  
Supported file types—the text file formats and destination applications are only available if an OCR module or  
application is installed. Please refer to Text Formats on page 66 to see a list of text file formats that are available  
when OCR is installed. Additionally, the available file formats are application specific, for example Microsoft’s  
WordPad can open *.txt and *.rtf files, so only those two file types will be available when scanning to WordPad.  
Note that when there is no OCR module or application installed, the format panel will not contain a text icon and  
there will be no text editor applications in the Select destination list.  
Destination type—this destination type is classified as a “Text Based Link”. To make it available in the destination  
list, you must select Text editing applications on the Options tab in the OneTouch Properties window. If the text  
editing application you are using does not appear in the Select destination list, you can add the application using  
the Text Documents OneTouch Link Properties window.  
1. In the OneTouch Properties window select one of the default text editors such as WordPad.  
2. Click on the Properties button to open the Text Document OneTouch Link Properties window. From this  
window you can select what OneTouch should do when text is not detected or recognition fails, and add other  
applications to OneTouch.  
Note that if you recently installed an application, click the Refresh button to see if OneTouch will automatically  
configure the link before you try adding it manually.

Adding Text Editor Applications to OneTouch  
1. To add another application to the list, click the Add application button. The Add Text Based Link dialog box  
opens.  
2. Click Browse to find the application you want to add to the list.  
When you select the application using the Browse button, Steps 1 and 2 on the dialog box are automatically  
filled in, and the application icon appears in Step 3.  
3. Select the icon in Step 3 of the dialog box. That is the icon that will appear in the OneTouch Destination List.  
4. In Step 4 of the dialog box, select the file formats that the application will accept.  
HTML Formatted file—select this option when you want to scan to your web browser for posting HTML  
pages to a website. Even though word processing applications, such as Notepad and Word can open  
*.htm files, you cannot scan as *.htm to word processing text editors. Scanning as HTML creates a  
directory with the *.htm file and linked images for website use. Word processing applications cannot  
accept a directory structure for image and text transfer.  
Rich Text Format—select this option if your application can open *.rtf files, which are plain text  
documents that contain formatting. Microsoft’s WordPad application is a compatible application for the  
*.rtf file formation.  
Standard ASCII text file—select this option if you want to have plain text, without formatting, sent to  
your text editing application. Most text editing applications will accept plain text (*.txt) files.  
Adobe PDF format—select this option if you are adding a PDF viewing or editing application to the list.  
This PDF format is an image format only, it will not recognize the document using OCR, and you will not  
be able to search or edit the text in the final file. The application you are adding must be able to open  
*.pdf files.  
Adobe searchable PDF—this is the PDF image format with a hidden searchable text layer. You will not  
be able to edit the text the file. The application you are adding must be able to open *.pdf files.  
The options you select at Step 4 determine the page format icons in the OneTouch Properties window for  
that group of applications. Refer to the documentation you received with the application to see which  
text formats the application accepts.  
5. When you are done making changes in this window, click the Add button to accept the changes and close the  
window.  
6. Click OK on the Link Properties window.

PDF Applications  
PDF destinations are applications that can open and/or edit the Adobe PDF file format.  
Supported file types—applications in the PDF destination group support the *.pdf file format. When the OmniPage  
module or software is installed, OneTouch includes an option to scan as sPDF or nPDF. Selecting either of these two  
formats still creates a *.pdf file, but the “s” and “n” letters indicate that OCR will process the image before sending  
the file to the PDF application.  
sPDF—this format creates a *.pdf file that contains the original image of the scanned page, with a hidden text  
layer that allows you to search for text in the file.  
nPDF—this format creates a *.pdf file that can be edited in a PDF application. Any pictures in the scanned  
image are isolated from the text, the text on the page is recognized and turned into editable text, and the  
pictures are placed back into the document in the same flow as the original document.  
Destination type—this destination type is classified as “PDF Link”. To make it available in the destination list, you  
must select PDF applications on the Options tab in the OneTouch Properties window.  
If the PDF application you are using does not appear in the Select destination list, you can add the application using  
the Text Documents OneTouch Link Properties window.

Launch application for every image—when this option is selected, the application will open one time for  
each image scanned. You should deselect this option only if the application you are scanning to will accept  
multiple page files.  
For example, Microsoft’s Paint application can only accept 1 image at a time, so when scanning multiple  
images, Paint would open each time an image is transferred when this option is selected. On the other hand,  
Microsoft’s WordPad will open a multiple page file, so when scanning multiple images WordPad would need to  
launch only one time when this option is not selected. If you scan to WordPad and this option is still selected,  
then WordPad will open 1 time for each image transferred.  
Command line arguments—input the options that are to be used when the application is launched. These  
values are application specific and you should only input values that were provided to you by the application  
developer. Command line arguments are not required for you to use this link, the field can be left blank and  
you can change the other settings in this section as needed.  
Append scan filename(s) to arguments—this option adds the name of every image file to the end of the list  
of arguments specified above. This is the default selection as most applications do not require, and may not  
work with, a job file containing the image names.  
Append job file to arguments—this option adds the name of a job file to the end of the list of arguments  
specified above. This unique file is created at scan time and contains a list of every image in the scan job. Only  
select this option if you are sure that the application you are scanning to can use the job file to accept image  
transfer.

Scanning with Job Separation  
Use job separation to have OneTouch create a new file each time a separator is detected when scanning a multiple  
page batch. For example, if you want to scan financial statements from several different banks, you can place a  
stack of statements in the scanner and OneTouch will separate each statement into a different file based on your  
selected job separator.  
1. Open the OneTouch Properties window.  
2. Select the Destination Application, File Format, and Scan Configuration applicable to your scanning batch.  
Make sure the option Create single image files is not selected. If this option is selected, the job separation  
features on the Options tab will be disabled.  
3. Click on the Options tab in the OneTouch Properties window.  
4. Click on the down arrow next to the Select Button list to select the button you want to modify.  
Note that the options in this window are specific to each OneTouch button.  
5. Click on the option Use job separator when scanning multiple pages.

6. Select one of the two job separation options:  
When a blank page is detected—a new file will be created after a blank page is fed through the scanner. The  
blank page is discarded from the scanned image and the new file starts with the next page in the document  
stack. Place a blank page, in the document you are scanning, at each place where you want a new file created  
when scanning is complete.  
When you are scanning in Duplex mode, both sides of the page must be blank for this job separation option to  
work.  
Sensitivity—you can adjust the sensitivity level of the blank page detection. For instance, depending on  
the paper weight, color mode, or image processing options selected, you might get varying results.  
Changing the sensitivity level allows you to fine-tune the accuracy of the blank page detection.  
When the number of images reaches—input the maximum number of images you want in the scanned file.  
The scanner will create a new file each time that number is reached.  
When you are scanning in Duplex mode, the number of images captured is double the number of pages in the  
scanner. For example, if you are scanning 12 double-sided pages it is counted as 24 images. If you want the  
stack split in half, the number of images reached would be 12.  
7. When you are done making changes, click on OK to save the changes and close the window.  
8. Place your documents in the scanner and start scanning.  
When scanning is finished, each file will be sent to the destination location or application you have selected on the  
button tab.  
Technical Note  
When Instant delivery is also selected on the Options tab, each file will be sent as it is created.  
The options on the Page Settings tab, in the Scan Configuration Properties window will affect the job separation  
options as described below:  
Skip blank originals  
The Sensitivity you set for this feature is the one that is used when scanning. The sensitivity level you set in the  
Options tab will be ignored.  
When you are scanning in Simplex mode and the selected job separator is When a blank page is detected,  
the job separation occurs first and a new file will be created each time a blank page is detected. If you want a  
single file created with the blank page discarded, deselect the job separation feature on the Options tab.  
Note that when scanning Duplex, both sides of the page must be blank for the job separation to occur. If both  
sides of a scanned page are blank, the job separation occurs first and a new file will be created each time a  
blank page is detected. If you want a single file created with the blank page discarded, deselect the job  
separation feature on the Options tab or remove the blank page from your scanning batch.

Scanning with Optical Character Recognition  
(OCR)  
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) converts text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and numbers.  
You can then work with the text and numbers to edit, spell check, change font or type size, sort, calculate, and so  
forth.  
Note: Xerox recommends that all OCR processing use the original factory settings for OCR scanning that came with  
your scanner. When scanning with other settings, use at least 300 dpi for the resolution. If the original documents  
are of poor quality or have a small type font, 400 dpi can be used as the maximum resolution.  
The OneTouch OmniPage Module must be installed on your computer in order to use the OCR options with the  
OneTouch software and your Xerox scanner. The OneTouch OmniPage Module was automatically installed when  
you installed your driver from the installation disc.  
Note: Some of the illustrations in this section may not look exactly as they appear on your computer’s screen. The  
differences are minor and do not affect the steps to use the new features.  
To scan with OCR:  
1. Open the OneTouch Properties window.  
2. Select a text editing program in the Select Destination list, then select a text file format in the Select format  
panel.  
For example, if you want to edit your document in Microsoft’s WordPad, select that application then choose a  
file format such as TEXT or RTF.  
3. Click on OK to save the changes and close the OneTouch Properties window.  
4. Press or click the OneTouch button you set to scan with OCR.  
Your scanned pages appear in the Destination Application with the text ready for editing and other text  
processing.

scanned text into PDF with an invisible text layer for searching.  
Normal PDF—the.pdf file format used by Adobe Acrobat. This format converts scanned  
text into a PDF with the text ready for editing in a PDF editing program.  
Additional options are available on the menu for the sPDF and nPDF text formats. The three image quality settings  
are:  
Minimize Size—smallest file size, lowest image quality.  
Normal—medium file size, some loss of image quality.  
Maximize Quality—largest file size, no loss of image quality.  
Note: Documents scanned with nPDF and sPDF automatically include OCR processing. If the processing does not  
recognize a large number of the text characters in the document, change the image quality setting and re-scan the  
document. For example, change from Minimize Size to Normal to see if the text recognition improves.  
The Use MRC option is a special processing procedure for documents scanned with the PDF format.  
Use MRC—MRC stands for Mixed Raster Content. MRC is an advanced technique for optimizing the image  
quality of scanned documents. Without MRC, the scanned image is produced using a single process to capture  
and display the image on the computer screen, even if the document contains both text and graphics. With  
MRC, the image is produced using separate processes for text, graphics, and other elements on the document  
page. The result is clearer graphics and sharper text characters. Scans with Use MRC selected may take slightly  
longer to complete the processing. Select Use MRC for documents with harder-to-read text or lower-quality  
graphics to get the best possible scan output image. The Use MRC option is available for sPDF and PDF.

The OCR Tab  
The options shown on the OCR tab window are for spellchecking scanned text, replacing missing or unrecognized  
characters, and setting the speed and quality levels of the OCR processing.  
1. Choose the options you want from the OCR window.  
Languages in Document—click on the language(s) in list that correspond to the languages in the  
documents to be scanned. You can click on multiple languages. These are the languages that will be  
recognized during the OCR process. For faster and more reliable language recognition, select only the  
languages in the documents.  
The languages are in alphabetical order. Type the first letter of a language’s name to jump to its section  
in the list.  
Use languages and dictionaries to improve accuracy—select this option to automatically check the  
validity of the recognized words. An OCR engine looks at each letter or symbol on the page individually,  
then “guesses” what the letter or symbol is based on the shape. Therefore, the OCR engine may have  
more than one guess for a particular letter or symbol, a “best guess”, a “second-best guess”, and so on.  
This option tells the OCR engine to look through the dictionary to validate its best guess for the letters in  
that word; if its best guess is not in the dictionary, it checks for the second-best guess, and so on.  
For example, if the word “house” appears in the original document but the OCR engine is 75% sure that  
the “o” is actually an “a”, the finished document would have the word “hause”. Turning this option on tells  
the OCR engine to look at the other letters in the word, check to see which version of the word is in the  
dictionary, and output the correct word “house” in the final document.  
The OCR engine does not automatically correct misspelled words that were present in the original  
document.  
When dictionaries are selected, the terms in those dictionaries are used to check the spelling. If this is  
option is not selected, User Dictionaries and Professional Dictionaries cannot be selected.

User Dictionary—a user dictionary is your personal dictionary with words that you want the OCR engine  
to reference for better accuracy when converting the document into editable text. For example, if you  
scan documents with highly technical terms or acronyms not found in typical dictionaries, you can add  
them to your personal dictionary. You can also add names that you expect to be in the documents too.  
This way, as the OCR process recognizes each letter or symbol, there is a higher chance that the technical  
term or name will be correctly spelled in the final document. You can create multiple user dictionaries. See  
Click the menu arrow and select a user dictionary from the list.  
If you select [none] as the user dictionary, the text will be validated using the terms in the dictionaries for  
the selected languages, as well as any professional dictionaries if they are selected.  
The label [current] is next to the currently-select user dictionary.  
Professional Dictionaries—these are legal and medical dictionaries containing highly specialized words  
and phrases. The options are: Dutch Legal, Dutch Medical, English Financial, English Legal, English  
Medical, French Legal, French Medical, German Legal, and German Medical. Select the appropriate  
dictionary for the OCR engine to use to validate the scanned text.  
Reject Character—this is the character that the OCR process inserts for an unrecognizable text  
character. For example, if the OCR process cannot recognize the J in REJECT, and ~ is the reject character,  
the word would appear as RE~ECT in your document. The ~ is the default reject character.  
Type the character you want to use in the Reject Character box. Try to choose a character that will not  
appear in your documents.  
Missing Character—this is the character that the OCR process inserts for a missing text character. A  
missing text character is one that the OCR process recognizes, but cannot represent because that  
character is not available for the selected language. For example, if the document contains the text  
symbol “Ç” but the OCR process cannot represent that character, then every place “Ç” appears, the OCR  
process substitutes the missing character symbol. The caret (^) is the default symbol for the missing  
character.  
Type the character you want to use in the Missing Character box. Try to choose a character that will not  
appear in your documents.  
Recognition Quality—drag the slider to the left or right to set the degree of accuracy for the OCR  
process. The higher the accuracy, the longer the OCR process requires to complete. For clean, highly-  
legible documents, you can set the recognition quality to a lower level to produce results more quickly.  
2. Click OK or Apply.  
These options will now apply to the OCR processing when you select any text format as the page format.  
Creating Your Own Dictionaries  
You can create multiple dictionaries for your personal use. For example, you might have different dictionaries for  
separate work projects, especially if each project uses different acronyms and terminology.  
To create a personal dictionary:  
1. Open any word processing program, such as Microsoft Word, WordPad, or Notepad.  
2. Create a new document in the word processing program.  
3. Type each word you want in your new dictionary, followed by a carriage return. Make sure to spell the words  
correctly as they will be used for spellchecking.  
Here is an example of what the text file might look like:

The file does not have to include every word you want in the dictionary. You will be able to edit the list later. In  
fact, the file does not have to contain any text at all, and you could add the words using the editing options.  
However, if the list of words is long, it’s usually faster to type them in the word processing program. Note also  
that the words do not need to be alphabetized.  
4. Save the document in the .txt format and give the file the name that you want for the dictionary. For example,  
give it the name USERDIC1.  
5. Now open the OCR Options window.  
6. On the OCR Options window, click the button next to the menu arrow.  
7. The User Dictionary Files window opens and shows the available dictionaries.

[current] is added to the name.  
If you don’t want to use any user dictionaries for spellchecking, click [none] at the top of the list.  
To remove a dictionary from the list, select it and click Remove. This only removes the dictionary from the list.  
It does not affect the original text file you created with the list of words.  
Editing User Dictionaries  
Once a dictionary has been added to the list of user dictionaries, its list of words can be edited.  
To edit a user dictionary:  
1. On the Add New window, select the dictionary to edit and click Edit.  
The Edit User Dictionary window opens. It lists the words currently in the dictionary. The following example  
shows the words OmniPage and OneTouch are in the user dictionary named MyDictionary.  
2. To add a new word to the list, type it in the box for User Word and click Add. If the word includes any spaces  
before or after it, those spaces are removed and the word is added to the list.  
To delete a word from the list, select it and click Delete.  
If a word in the list is misspelled, delete it, then re-type the word correctly in the User Word box and click Add.

The Format Tab  
The options on the Format tab window are for setting the input and output formats for the scanned documents.  
Click the Format tab and choose the options you want for both the input and output formats.  
Input Format Options  
Automatic—choose this option to let the OCR process determine the format of the pages. Typically you select  
this option when the document has different or unknown types of layouts, pages with multiple columns and a  
table, or pages containing more than one table. The OCR process will then determine if text is in columns, an  
item is a graphic or text, and tables are present.  
Single column no table—choose this option if the document contains only one column of text and no tables.  
Business letters are normally in this form. You can also use this option for documents with words or numbers in  
columns if you do not want them placed in a table or decolumnized or treated as separate columns.  
Multiple columns, no table—choose this option if some document pages contain text in columns and you  
want it kept in separate columns, similar to the original layout. If table-like data is encountered, it is placed in  
columns, not in a gridded table.  
Single column with table—choose this option if your document contains only one column of text and a  
table. The table will be placed in a grid in the Destination Application you have selected. You can later specify  
whether to export it in a grid or as tab-separated text columns.  
Spreadsheet—choose this option if the entire document consists of a table that you want to export to a  
spreadsheet program, or have treated as a table. No flowing text or graphics will be detected.  
Output Format Options  
Automatic—the document will be formatted as close to its original as possible. The OneTouch software will  
adjust its settings to the most appropriate for the document being scanned in order to match your selected  
output format. The output quality will be maximized and the processing time minimized.  
No formatting—the document will be plain text, one column, left-aligned in a single font and font size. You  
can then export the plain text to nearly all file types and target applications.  
Retain fonts and paragraphs—this output format retains the font and paragraph styling, including graphics  
and tables without columnized text, but does not retain layout formatting. If the document is being scanned  
as an Excel spreadsheet, each detected table or spreadsheet becomes a separate worksheet, while other  
content is placed on the last worksheet.

Flowing page—this format preserves the original layout of the pages, including columns. This is done  
wherever possible with column and indent settings, but not with text boxes or frames. Text will then flow from  
one column to the other, which does not happen when text boxes are present.  
True page—this output format uses absolute positioning on the page to keep the original layout of the pages,  
including columns. This is done with text, picture and table boxes and frames. True Page is the only choice for  
documents scanned with the PDF format. It is not available for the TXT, RTF, CSV, or XLS formats.  
Spreadsheet—this output format produces results in a tabular form with each page becoming a separate  
worksheet. The worksheets can then be opened in a spreadsheet application. The Spreadsheet output option is  
only available for documents scanned with the XLS format.  
These options will now apply to the OCR processing when you select any text format as the page format.

Straighten image—Select this option to have the software automatically determine if a page is skewed,  
then straighten its image. If the page is scanned at too great an angle, the image may not straighten  
correctly. In that case, re-scan the page.  
Auto detect color—Determines if a document contains color or not and produces the appropriate  
scanned image. Typically, Auto Color Detect is used when you have a stack of pages to scan, some color  
and others not. Instead of you having to change the scan settings from Color to Black&White and back  
again, the scanner can choose the correct settings automatically.  
Skip blank originals—Recognizes when a page is blank and removes its image. For instance, if you are  
scanning a stack of pages that includes a blank page, its image will not be included with the other images  
from the stack.  
Rotate image—Select an option in this list to have the final image rotated when scanning is complete.  
Flip back side—Select this option if you are scanning duplex pages that are calendar style orientation.  
This option will rotate the back side image 180 degrees from the front side. When scanning in duplex  
mode without this option selected, the back side image of calendar orientation pages will appear upside  
down in the final scan. This option does not automatically determine book page orientation versus  
calendar page orientation. If you have this option selected when scanning book orientation pages, the  
image for the back side of the page will appear upside down in the final scan. If you are scanning a batch  
of documents that contain both types of orientation, we recommend that you select Automatic in the  
Rotate image list.  
Perform edge cleanup—Select this option to have the software remove any thin lines that may be  
around the edges in the scanned image. Edge Cleanup only applies if AutoCrop and AutoDeskew are  
selected so the software can determine where the edges are located. Therefore, selecting Edge Cleanup  
will also select AutoCrop and AutoDeskew. This option is only available when scanning in Black&White.  
Despeckle—Speckles are small spots on an image that the scanner interpreted as a valid part of the  
document. The Despeckle option identifies these spots and removes them. This option is only available  
when scanning in Black&White.  
Color dropout—color dropout is the ability of your scanner to automatically remove a color from a  
scanned image. For example, if you are scanning a letter with a red watermark, you can choose to filter  
out the red so the scanned letter just shows the text and not the red watermark. Color dropout applies to  
Black & White or Grayscale scanning modes.  
Bit depth reduction—Click the drop down menu and select an option from the list. The Bit depth  
reduction options are only available when scanning in black and white.  
Error diffusion, Bayer, and Halftone patterns are the intentional application of noise (dithering) in the  
image to help alleviate banding when scanning in binary (black and white) mode. For example, if you  
scan a color photo in black and white, the image file will have large blocks of black and white and the  
image barely recognizable. Dithering the image creates a black and white image that is recognizable.  
Dynamic threshold attempts to evaluate the scanned page and automatically adjust the brightness  
and contrast levels to produce the best quality image when scanning in black and white.

Choosing TWAIN or WIA  
A note about your scanner and the TWAIN standard:  
TWAIN is a widely recognized standard that computers use to receive images from scanners and digital cameras.  
The TWAIN scanning interface can be accessed from any TWAIN scanning application you have installed on the  
computer. The driver interface described herein is the TWAIN driver that has been developed for your scanner.  
However, there are some applications that have their own TWAIN interface. If you are scanning from a software  
application, and see the interface shown in this section, you can use these instructions to scan with the TWAIN  
interface. If you do not see this TWAIN interface, please refer to your scanning application’s user guide for  
instructions.  
A note about your scanner and Microsoft WIA (Windows Image Acquisition):  
The WIA platform has been developed to enable image transfer from devices using standard Windows applications,  
such as Paint or Windows Fax and Scan, without the need to install additional scanning software. Microsoft has  
developed its own interface for using the scanner with the Windows applications, as well as any other WIA  
compatible applications you may have installed. However, when using a WIA 2.0 compatible application, the default  
behavior will display the TWAIN interface as described in this document. You can change the driver behavior to  
show the Windows interface instead of the custom interface described herein. Please refer to Driver Settings for the  
Please refer to your Windows documentation for WIA scanning instructions if you do not see the interface described  
below, or if you have any questions regarding Windows scanning applications.

Using the Preview Window  
Clicking the Preview button will display the preview window for the scanner interface. Use the preview option if you  
want to scan and display a sample image that reflects the current settings in the main interface. After the preview is  
displayed, you can then adjust the settings in the main interface until you are happy with how the sample image  
looks. The preview window is also where you can define custom scan regions. Please refer to Scan Regions for  
instructions on creating and scanning custom regions.  
To use the preview window:  
1. Select the initial scan settings you want to use for the preview image and scanning.  
If you want to modify the settings for a particular preset, make sure you select that preset before continuing.  
2. Click the Preview button to open the preview window.  
If there is a page in the scanner, the scanner will scan and display a sample image in the preview window. If  
you do not have a page in the scanner when you click Preview, the preview window will open and display an  
empty scan area. You will need to place a page in the scanner and click Get preview to scan and display a  
sample image.  
3. The preview window displays the scan area and the current scan region. This scan region reflects the paper size  
currently selected in the main interface. When you pass the mouse cursor over the scan region it will highlight  
for you to move or resize it. If you move, resize, or add scan regions the main interface will display User

4. Click Show main UI to bring the main scanner interface in front of the preview window for you to adjust the  
scan settings.  
There are some settings in the main interface, such as brightness and contrast, which will immediately update  
the preview image after you adjust the setting. Other settings, such as changing from color scanning to black  
and white scanning, will not automatically update the sample image.  
If you select any of the document image adjustment options, such as an option to automatically crop,  
straighten or rotate an image, it will not show in the sample image preview. The preview window displays an  
unaltered view of the item size and position in the scanner. Any document image adjustment options will be

Scan Regions  
You can use the preview window to create custom scan regions for the scanner to use for scanning. For example, if  
you want to scan only a specific area of the image, you can move and resize a scan region to focus only on the area  
you want to scan. The final image will be only the size of the region you set.  
Important: do not change the page size for the scanned image after you create custom regions. When you have set  
a custom region in the preview window, the page size field will display “user defined” indicating you have specified  
one or more custom regions for scanning. Changing the page size after you create a custom region discards the  
custom regions and sets a single scan region to the size you selected in the page size list.  
Creating custom scan regions:  
1. Select the preset you want to use for scanning.  
2. In the main interface click Preview to open the preview window.  
If no previous custom scan regions have been created for the preset you selected, the preview window will  
have a single scan region that is the page size for the current preset. This region will be labeled number 1 and  
be displayed as an outline in the preview area.  
3. Place an item in the scanner and then click Get preview.  
4. The scanner scans and displays a sample image.  
5. Move or resize region 1 until the sample image area you want is within the scan region.  
Resize the region by clicking on one edge of the region outline and dragging the mouse. Move the region by  
clicking in the region then dragging the mouse. Please refer to Move, Resize, or Delete Regions for detailed  
instructions.

6. Create additional scan regions as needed by clicking anywhere in the sample image, hold your mouse button  
down, and then drag your mouse to create a scan region. Release the mouse button when the area you want is  
within the rectangle.  
If you want to create a region that overlaps another region, hold the Ctrl (control) key on the keyboard while  
you click and drag the mouse to create the region. You can release the Ctrl key after you start creating the  
overlapping region. You only need to hold down the Ctrl key if the starting point of the overlapping region is  
over another region. If you do not hold down the Ctrl key, when you click on the area that has already been set  
as a region you will move the existing region.  
7. Click Close when you are done creating scan regions.  
8. In the main scanner interface click Save to save the regions to the current preset, or save them to a new preset  
using the Save as dialogue.  
The Summary area in the main interface will indicate when custom regions have been defined in the preview  
window. Click on View or modify custom regions in the summary area to display the preview window.  
9. Click Scan in the main interface to scan using the custom regions.  
10. When scanning is finished, one image is created for each region set in the preview window.  
The number of scan regions you can create is limited by the scanner model and installed modules. For instance,  
most scanners have only one region. When you select a paper size in the Page size list, or input the dimensions in the  
custom page size fields, you are setting a scan region.

When Visioneer Acuity is installed, you can create multiple scan regions for each image scanned. The maximum  
number of scan regions you can create when Visioneer Acuity is installed may vary between scanner models. When  
creating scan regions and you reach the maximum number of allowable scan regions, you will not be able to  
continue creating scan regions until you remove a region you have already created.  
Move, Resize, or Delete Regions  
Moving regions – to move a region, place your mouse cursor over the region you want to move. The region will  
highlight indicating that it is the active region under the mouse cursor. Click on the region and drag the mouse to  
move the region.  
Resizing regions – to resize a region, place your mouse cursor over the edge of the region outline. The cursor will  
change to a dual directional arrow. Click on the line and drag the mouse to resize the region. If you click on the top  
or bottom edge, you can only resize the region up or down. If you click on the left or right edge, you can only resize  
the region left or right. Click on a corner edge and then drag the mouse to resize the region in all directions.

Move, Resize, or Delete a Blocked Region  
If there is a region you cannot move or resize because another region is in the way, you can temporarily move that  
region behind the other regions. Right-click on the region that is in the way and select Temporarily send this region  
to the back to move that region behind the one that you want to move or resize. This is a temporary change in the  
region ordering and cannot be undone. That region will automatically move back into its position when you click to  
move or resize a region.  
Reordering Regions  
If you have created multiple scan regions, you can reorder the region priority from the right-click menu for the  
regions. The priority determines which region gets processed first while scanning. For example, region 1 will be  
processed first and appear in the scanning application as the first image. Right-click on the region and select an  
option from the menu.

Document Source Configuration  
Some options in the interface may be grayed out and cannot be selected. Grayed out options are either not  
appropriate for the current scanner, the software needed to enable the feature is not installed, or the feature is  
dependent on another setting in the scanner's interface. Hover the mouse cursor over a grayed out feature to see  
information about why the feature is unavailable.  
Select Basic or Advanced from the list to show the basic or advanced document source configuration options as  
described below.  
Basic Options  
Auto source—when scanning in basic mode, this option is always enabled and cannot be changed.  
Duplex—select this option to scan both sides of the item in the scanner.  
Click the drop down menu to select the color mode you want to use.  
Color scans the document in color, creating a full color copy of an original document or photograph. Color  
scans have the largest file size.  
Gray scans the document using varying shades of gray to reproduce the document. The grayscale scan mode  
is often used when scanning documents or graphics where the original color does not need to be retained, but  
the graphics need to be legible. Grayscale scanning preserves the graphic quality while keeping the file size less  
than that of a full color scan.  
Black and White scans the document in bitonal where everything on the page is either black or white. This  
setting is often used when scanning typed or written documents. When there are not a lot of graphics, or if the  
graphics are not needed, this setting is ideal for archiving documents to a server or on a disc, send through  
email, or posting to a web page, as the file size is smaller than the other scanning modes.  
Advanced Options  
Auto source—select this option to have the scanner automatically determine where the paper is in the  
scanner. This option is only available if your scanner has more than one paper source option, such an ADF with  
a front feed tray scanner, or an ADF with a flatbed combination scanner. When this option is not selected, you  
can select which source you want to use in the scan mode list.  
Multi-stream—select this option to have the scanner create an image of each item scanned in each color  
mode selected in the source list.  
Duplex—select this option to scan both sides of the item in the scanner. Note that if you deselect the Back  
side options in the source configuration list, this option will automatically deselect.

(Example: Sources are different)  
While the option to enable or disable Sources identical is in the source configuration list, the color mode is not the  
only option that can be individually configured for each source. Other options in the scanner interface, such as  
resolution, brightness, contrast, etc... will also be individually set for each source. After you deselect Sources  
identical, any changes you make in the scanner interface will only be applied to the option that appears at the top  
of the list (for example, “Input tray (Front side) Black and White”).

Importing a Preset  
If you have previously exported presets, or another user has given you their presets files, select the import option to  
add those presets to your current list.  
Note that if you import presets that were created when using a scanner that does not have the same hardware  
features as your current scanner, the settings for the presets you import will automatically be updated to reflect the  
supported settings for the current scanner. For example, if you are using a flatbed scanner and you import a preset  
that was created using an ADF scanner, all settings that are specific to ADF scanning will be modified.  
1. Click on the right pointing arrow next to the presets list and select Import....  
2. Browse to the location where the preset file is saved. If you want to import multiple presets, click on each  
preset name. You may need to hold down the Ctrl (Control) key on your keyboard, while clicking on each preset  
name, to select multiple presets.  
3. Click on Open.  
4. The preset will now be in the list of presets available in the scanner's interface.  
Note: the software will look for duplicate preset names. If you see a notification indicating that a preset with the  
same name already exists, select one of the options on-screen to continue.  
Overwrite—select this option to replace the current preset with the one you selected from the list.  
Keep both—select this option to keep both presets. The preset you selected will have a counting number  
added to the end of the preset name; for example, “Custom preset name (2)”. The original preset name will  
remain unchanged.  
Skip—select this option to skip the preset with the duplicate name.  
Select the option Do this for all conflicts to have the action you select in this dialogue be used for all conflicts  
found.

Disabled Options in this Section  
Some options in the interface may be grayed out and cannot be selected. Grayed out options are either not  
appropriate for the current scanner, the software needed to enable the feature is not installed, or the feature is  
dependent on another setting in the scanner's interface. Hover the mouse cursor over a grayed out feature to see  
information about why the feature is unavailable.  
When you are using a scanner that has multiple sources, such as an ADF with Flatbed combination scanner, some  
options may be disabled based on the current source displayed in the source list. For example when the flatbed  
source is selected, the manual feed option will be disabled.  
If an option is unavailable, check to see which source is displayed at the top of the source list when in the Advanced  
interface view.  
When Flatbed is displayed here, only the  
options that can be used for the flatbed will  
be available in the scanner interface.  
Click on one of the color modes under the  
source you want to configure. That source  
will now be displayed at the top of the list,  
and the options for that source will be  
available in the scanner interface.  
Note that even when Sources identical is selected, any options that are only available for a specific source will be  
discarded if the scanner scans from the source that does not have those options.

Resolution  
The resolution determines the amount of detail you can see in the scanned image. Resolution is the clarity of the  
image measured in dots-per-inch (dpi).  
Move the slider left or right to change the resolution for the scanned image. The higher the resolution, the clearer  
the image. However, high resolution scans also produce larger file sizes. The available range displayed in the slider  
area are within the minimum and maximum range supported by your scanner. The resolution slider will always  
display the correct range for the current scanner.  
Choosing resolution values  
Typically, when making copies of black and white documents, 100–150 dpi will create an image of similar quality to  
the original. When making copies of color documents or photographs, 150–200 dpi will create an image of similar  
quality to the original.  
Higher resolution settings are generally used for creating an image that can be enlarged without losing image  
quality, but take longer to scan.  
Some resolution settings for typically scanned items are:  
Text document letters, forms, or other typed black and white documents – 100 dpi to 150 dpi  
Text document letters or forms with hand printed text – 150 dpi  
Text document (for OCR) forms, letters, memos, or spreadsheets – 300 dpi  
Business cards or other items with small print – 300 dpi

Document Size  
Standard document sizes  
Click the drop down menu and select a pre-defined document size from the list. The available document sizes are  
within the scanner's range of minimum and maximum item size.  
Custom document sizes  
Select the measurement units you want to use from the Units list.  
If the Document size list does not include the document size for your scanning batch, click in one of the fields below  
the document size list. Input the width of the document in the first field, then input the length in the second field.  
You can only specify values within the scanner's minimum and maximum supported item size. Please refer to the  
maintenance section of the scanner user's guide for this information.  
Long Document  
Select Long document to enable support of paper sizes up to the scanner maximum. After you select this option  
make sure you input the page length for your document in the custom input field, located below the Document size  
selection list.  
Note that some of the options in the scanner interface cannot be used when the page length will be greater than 14  
or 17 inches (depending on the scanner model). When you select this option, incompatible options will either be  
automatically disabled or the setting will simply be discarded while scanning. For instance, the option Detect  
double feeds will usually be disabled when Long document is selected, even if the scanner supports DFD, as the  
added page length will cause a false double feed.

Manual Feed  
Select this option to enable a delay from when the last page is scanned and when the scanner stops the scan job.  
This allows you to scan one page at a time without having to click Scan for each page you put in the scanner.  
To scan with manual feed mode:  
1. Select Manual feed in the scanner’s interface.  
2. In the Timeout field, input the amount of time you want the scanner to wait from when the last page is  
scanned and when the scanner stops scanning.  
3. Place a document in the scanner.  
4. Click Scan.  
5. The scanning progress dialogue on-screen will display a countdown indicating how much time you have to  
place the next document in the scanner.  
6. When you are done scanning all pages in your document, you can click on Abort to stop the timer or simply let  
the timer run out.  
Detect Double Feeds  
Detect double feeds is the scanner's ability to detect when two or more pages are fed through the scanner at the  
same time. When this option is turned on, ultrasonic waves are aimed at the document to detect multiple pages by  
the level at which the waves pass through the pages. The accuracy of this sensor depends on paper thickness and  
whether or not creasing is in the original document.  
This option is available in the interface only if the current scanner supports this feature.  
Technical Note:  
If you are getting false double feed errors, try cleaning the inside of the scanner. Excessive dust on the sensor can  
cause false double feed errors. Refer to the maintenance section of the scanner's user guide for instructions on  
cleaning the scanner.  
Straighten Image  
Select this option to let the scanner automatically determine if a page is skewed, then straighten its image. This  
option is only available if the scanner supports this feature.  
If you are scanning using an automatic document feeder, and the page is fed through at too great of an angle, the  
image may not straighten correctly. In that case, re-scan the page making sure the paper guides are adjusted to the  
width of the pages in the input tray so that the pages are pulled straight through the scanner.  
Rotate Image  
Select an option in this list to have the final image rotated when scanning is complete.

Flip Back Side  
Select this option if you are scanning duplex pages that are calendar style orientation. This option will rotate the  
back side image 180 degrees from the front side. When scanning in duplex mode without this option selected, the  
back side image of calendar orientation pages will appear upside down in the final scan. This option does not  
automatically determine book page orientation versus calendar page orientation. If you have this option selected  
when scanning book orientation pages, the image for the back side of the page will appear upside down in the final  
scan. If you are scanning a batch of documents that contain both types of orientation, we recommend that you  
select Automatic in the Rotate image list.  
This option is available only if the current scanner supports duplex scanning and the Duplex option is selected in the  
scanning interface.  
Merge Two Sides  
When scanning in duplex mode, you can enable this option to have both sides of a scanned item appear on one  
page in the final image file. The options in the list allow you to select where you want the front side image to appear  
in relation to the back side image in the final file.  
The following image shows a cheque scanned in duplex mode without Merge two sides enabled, and the same  
cheque scanned with Merge two sides enabled. When Merge two sides is not enabled, side 1 and side 2 of the  
cheque are saved in two separate files (IMG_0001 and IMG_0002 respectively). With Merge two sides enabled,  
both sides of the cheque are in a single file (IMG_0003). If you are scanning a stack of items using a multipage file  
format, such as a PDF file, then each page in the final file will have both the front and back images of the scanned  
items.  
Height threshold  
Input the maximum height of images to be merged. The sides will not be merged if the height of either the front or  
rear image exceeds this value. For example, if you are scanning a batch of mixed documents such as cheques and  
statements, you may want both sides of the cheques merged into one image but not the statements. The Height  
threshold needs to be lower than the length of the documents you do not want merged into a single file.  
Select one of the options in the Merge two sides list to enable this field. Note that you will also need to enable Long  
document if you want to have the maximum height threshold be longer than 14 or 17 inches (depending on the  
scanner model).

Advanced Panel Options  
The options in this panel may also appear in the Main panel, but with additional settings for you to fine-tune the  
feature you've selected. Select the Advanced source configuration mode to show this panel.  
Skip Blank Originals  
Select this option to have the scanner detect if a blank page has been fed through the scanner, and remove it from  
the final file. Typically you might use this option when scanning a stack of two-sided pages which have a number of  
blank sides.  
Blank threshold—you can use the Threshold slider to fine tune the sensitivity of the blank image detection.  
The results will depend on the scan settings and the types of documents being scanned. In general leave the  
threshold level at the default setting if you are scanning good-quality documents printed on standard 20lb  
printer paper. Try lowering the sensitivity level if your documents contain light colored text or drawings so  
those pages are not detected as blank. Raise the sensitivity level if you are scanning double-sided light-weight  
paper where images from the opposite side of the page may appear in the image of the blank side.  
Clean Up Edges  
Select this option to remove any thin lines from around the edges of the final scan. This option will fill the margins of  
the image with the detected edge color. When you select this option, the Width input field will automatically enable  
for you to input the size of the area you want to have filled with the background color. You can specify a fill size  
between approximately 0.04 to 0.39 inches (1 mm to 10 mm).  
Automatic Image Cropping  
Depending on the scanner model and installed software, there may be more than one auto cropping option in the  
interface.  
Crop to original—select this option to let the scanner automatically determine the size of the item being  
scanned. This option is only available if the scanner supports this feature. This option may occasionally be  
grayed out as not all scanning applications support this feature.  
Always properly adjust the paper guides to the width of the paper in the input tray so that the pages feed into  
the scanner as straight as possible. Skewed pages may not crop properly.  
Crop to length—this option tells the scanner to crop the final image to the bottom of the page being  
scanned. This option is only available if the scanner supports this feature. This option may occasionally be  
grayed out as not all scanning applications support this feature.

Compression Options  
There are two types of image compression functions used during scanning. The input compression option is  
compressing the image when transferring it from the scanner to the TWAIN driver on the computer. The output  
compression option is the TWAIN driver compressing the image before it sends the image to the scanning  
application. In the scanning interface the input compression option is Compress transfers and the output option is  
Compression.  
Compress transfers  
Select this option to have the scanner compress the image in Gray and Color scans. This reduces the file size and  
allows for faster image transfer from the scanner to the computer. Once the compressed image is on the computer,  
scanner’s driver will then uncompresses the image, and perform any image processing functions that have been  
selected in the scanning interface. The uncompressed image is then transferred to the scanning application. With  
Compress transfers, a scanning application such as Nuance PDF Converter, will receive the uncompressed image and  
save the image in whatever file format it uses. You can use the Quality slider to adjust the level of compression you  
want to use.  
When the Quality option is set to High quality, there is very little visual difference between a compressed scan and  
an uncompressed scan. When the quality option is set to High compression, there may be a greater visual difference  
between compressed and uncompressed scans.  
Quality  
You can fine tune the compression level by adjusting the quality slider between high compression and high quality.  
When the quality level is set to high compression, the scanner will scan and transfer images faster than high quality,  
but the image quality of the output scan will be lower.  
Subsampling  
The subsampling options allow you to select the encoding ratio between color information and luminosity.  
Subsampling works by lowering the resolution of the RGB colors found in an image without affecting luminescence  
of the image. This compresses the image to create smaller file sizes but it can sometimes result in loss of image  
quality. Depending on the type of image being scanned, subsampling encoding may not have a noticeable affect in  
the final image file. You should try test scans using the different levels of subsampling to make sure you are happy  
with the image quality.  
4:4:4—no subsampling and the ratio between color and luminosity remains unchanged.  
4:2:2—mid-level ratio between color and luminosity.  
4:1:1—highest ratio difference between color and luminosity, which results in saving the smallest file size.  
Compression  
This option is specific compression for file and memory transfers to an application. It is only available if the  
application you are using can accept a compressed image file. For instance, if your scanning application is set to  
receive JPEG compressed images, then the Compression field will display JPEG. Otherwise, the status for  
Compression will always be disabled and display Uncompressed because the scanning application you are using is  
requesting an uncompressed image.  
The Compress transfers option described herein compresses the image for faster transfer from the scanner to the  
computer. The driver uncompresses the image and transfers the uncompressed image to the scanning application.  
The Compression option will often be disabled as most applications do not support receiving a compressed image  
file from the scanner driver.

When this option is available, it is an advanced user and application option and should not be adjusted if you are  
not familiar with the technology. However, if you are certain that you are using an application that can receive a  
compressed image, and you want to be able to change the image compression type, you will need to enable user  
adjustable compression in the scanning interface. Please refer to the Driver Settings section for instructions.  
Please note that if you adjust this setting, and the application cannot actually accept the option you change, the  
scanning interface and the application may crash. It is highly recommended that you leave the default options and  
let the application set any image compression.

Brightness  
Brightness is the overall lightness of the image. Move the slider left or right to darken or lighten the image. Adjusting  
the brightness level adjusts the tone of the pixels, without changing the true color of the pixels; such as when  
adjusting hue.  
Choosing brightness values  
Adjusting the brightness level is based on how you want the image to appear and there is no standard to adhere to.  
Below are some recommended options for brightness image correction based on the original document quality.  
Original documents of good quality - 50%  
Pencil written letters, forms, or drawings - 25% to 40%  
Faded pictures or old documents with faded text - 35% to 45%  
Light colored carbon copy paper, such as yellow or pale pink or pale green, with light text - 45% to 55%  
Newspaper or magazine pages - 55% to 70%  
Book pages - 55% to 80%  
Pictures taken inside or in the shade - 60% to 85%  
Brightness works in conjunction with Contrast for image enhancement. When you are adjusting the brightness  
level to improve the scanned image quality, try adjusting the contrast level as well. The contrast level is the range  
between the lightest and darkest parts of the image. For example, if you scanned a document with notes written in  
pencil, you may have to decrease the brightness level to get the handwritten notes to appear in the scanned image.  
However, when decreasing the brightness, white starts to appear gray in the image. In that case, raise the contrast  
level to make the differences between the lightest and darkest part of the image more defined.

Color image brightness examples  
The examples below show the original image at the default setting of 50% brightness level, 25% brightness and  
75% brightness. Adjusting the brightness level does not make the image completely black nor completely white.  
Brightness: 25%  
Brightness: 50%  
Brightness: 75%  
Technical note:  
Most monitors have a brightness setting that is user adjustable. When viewing scanned images on-screen, versus  
printing the image, the brightness setting of the monitor may affect how light or dark the scanned image looks  
when compared to the original. If the scanned image is too different from the original image, or if adjusting the  
scanned brightness level does not modify the image how you want, try adjusting the monitor's brightness level.  
Refer to the monitor's user guide for adjusting the brightness level and see if the manufacturer has any  
recommended settings.  
Black background scanners:  
Some scanners have a black background plate. A black background results in more precise cropping results and skew  
detection. However, when scanning thin paper, such as multipart color forms or ruled writing paper, which are less  
than 18lb paper weight, the background may “bleed” through into the final image and make the image darker than  
it should be. In that case, try adjusting the brightness level between 60% and 80%.  
Contrast  
Contrast refers to the differences between the light and dark portions in the image. Move the slider left or right to  
decrease or increase the contrast levels. Increasing the contrast level emphasizes the difference between the lighter  
and darker portions of the image, decreasing the contrast de-emphasizes that difference.  
Choosing contrast values  
While Brightness adds the same amount of gray or white to all pixels in the image, Contrast adjusts the pixels  
based on the pixel color level. For instance, increasing the contrast level will add white to light colored pixels and gray  
to dark pixels to make the difference between color levels in the image crisper. Decreasing the contrast level will  
have the opposite affect, where light colored pixels are modified with gray and dark pixels are modified with white  
to make the transition of colors in the image appear smoother.  
Adjusting the contrast level is based on how you want the image to appear and there is no standard to adhere to.  
Contrast works in conjunction with brightness for image enhancement, when decreasing the brightness level, the  
overall image becomes darker, in which case you may want to increase the contrast level so that the differences  
between the lighter and darker portions of the image are clearer.  
Below are some recommended options for contrast image correction based on the original document quality.

Technical note:  
Most monitors have a contrast setting that is user adjustable. When viewing scanned images on-screen, versus  
printing the image, the contrast setting of the monitor may affect how clear a scanned image looks when compared  
to the original. If the scanned image is too different from the original image, or if adjusting the scanned contrast  
level does not modify the image how you want, try adjusting the monitor's contrast level. Refer to the monitor's user  
guide for adjusting the contrast level and see if the manufacturer has any recommended settings.

18lb paper weight, the background may “bleed” through into the final image and make the image darker than it  
should be. In that case, try adjusting the brightness level between 40% and 60%, then adjust the contrast level  
between 60% and 80%.  
Gamma  
Gamma is the tone curve and starting point for image enhancement. Move the slider left or right to darken or  
lighten the image. As you raise or lower the Gamma value, the values at which Brightness and Contrast affect the  
image are changed. It is recommended that you keep the default gamma value, or adjust this setting before  
adjusting the other options.  
Choosing gamma values  
As the gamma value is adjusted lower, the tone curve begins to straighten and the shadows of the image are  
expanded, darkening the shadows without overall darkening the image with gray as seen with lowering the  
brightness level. This way, the highlights and shadows in the image are maintained by saturating the pixels with  
darker levels of the same color rather than adding gray to all colors.

As the gamma value is adjusted higher, the tone curve bends and the highlights of the image are expanded,  
lightening the highlights without overall lightening the image with white as seen with raising the brightness level.  
This way, the highlights and shadows in the image are maintained by saturating the pixels with lighter levels of the  
same color rather than just adding white.  
Adjusting the gamma level is based on how you want the image to appear and there is no standard to adhere to.  
Color image gamma examples  
The examples below show the original image at the default setting of 1.8 gamma level, then 1.0 gamma and 2.6  
gamma. Adjusting the gamma level does not make the image completely black nor completely white.  
Gamma: 1.0  
Gamma: 1.8  
Gamma: 2.6  
Technical note:  
Most monitors have a gamma setting that is user adjustable. When viewing scanned images on-screen, versus  
printing the image, the gamma setting of the monitor may affect how light or dark the scanned image looks when  
compared to the original. If the scanned image is too different from the original image, or if adjusting the scanned  
gamma level does not modify the image how you want, try adjusting the monitor's gamma level. Refer to the  
monitor's user guide for adjusting the gamma level and see if the manufacturer has any recommended settings.  
Invert Image  
The Invert image option reverses the color of each pixel in the scanned image.  
When scanning in black and white, each pixel is reversed from black to white and white to black. When scanning in  
grayscale each pixel is reversed to the opposite level of gray. When scanning in color each pixel is reversed to the  
opposite color in the color wheel.  
For example, you might choose this option if you are scanning pages that have been printed from newspaper  
microfilm. Newspaper microfilm reverses black and white so that when viewed on a monitor, the text is white and  
the paper is black.

Threshold and Dynamic threshold  
Threshold enables you to set what level of light or dark to look for on a page. When scanning in black and white,  
everything on the page is set to either white pixels or black pixels in the final image. If the text on the page is a light  
color, then the text may be gone in the final image as the scanner will change those light colors to white pixels. The  
threshold slider lets you set the level of darkness or lightness of the text on the page. Dynamic threshold attempts  
to evaluate the image and dynamically adjust the threshold level. These options work best for documents that  
contain only text such as business letters, spreadsheets, reports, etc...  
Threshold—move the slider to the left or right to set the level of lightness or darkness for the scanner to  
leverage from.  
For example, if you are scanning a document with gray text, such as hand written pencil notes, move the slider  
to the right. This tells the scanner that the level to look for is light, and gray pixels are converted to black pixels  
instead of white. If the overall tone of the original document is dark, such as a colored background that may  
interfere with detecting black, move the slider left. This tells the scanner that the level to look for is dark, only  
very dark areas such as text are converted to black pixels.  
If you are scanning documents that are in good condition, with black text on a white background, the default  
threshold option will properly scan the item. This level only needs to be adjusted if the scanned image does not  
have image clarity similar to the original.  
Sensitivity—move the slider left or right to adjust the sensitivity level for dynamic thresholding. This slider is  
only enabled when Dynamic threshold is selected in the list.  
Error diffusion, Bayer, and Halftone pattern  
Error diffusion, Bayer, and Halftone patterns are the intentional application of noise (dithering) in the image to  
help alleviate banding when scanning in binary (black and white) mode. For example, if you scan a color photo in  
black and white, the image file will have large blocks of black and white and the image barely recognizable.  
Dithering the image creates a black and white image that is recognizable.  
Below is an example of a color scan, a black and white scan without dithering, and a black and white scan with  
dithering. When the image is scaled down, it may look like a grayscale scan. When the image is at normal size or  
enlarged you will be able to clearly see the dithering pattern, as shown in the close-up image.

Fill Margin Holes  
Select this option if you are scanning pages with punched holes in the margins. This option will fill these holes with  
the detected background color in the final scan. The scanner will detect and fill the holes under the following  
conditions:  
The size of the hole can be between approximately 4 mm and 12 mm  
The maximum width of the margin is 25.4 mm from the edge of the paper  
The size of the margin is 24.4 mm  
The position of the hole cannot be flush to the edge of the margin area and it cannot overlap the edge of the  
margin area

Color Processing Panel Options  
The options in this panel are for setting how the scanner should process colors in specific color modes.  
Color Dropout  
Color dropout tells the scanner and software to remove a specific color from the image. You can choose either Red,  
Green, or Blue, or define a custom color, to be dropped out of an image.  
To input a custom color using its RGB value, select Custom in this list and then input the values for R, G, and B in  
their appropriate boxes, where R, G, and B are numbers from 0 to 255.  
Tolerance—use the slider to adjust the precision of the color dropout.  
More precise—this option removes a range of colors closest to the pure color selected or defined in the  
custom fields. For example, pure red has an R/G/B value of 255/0/0. Selecting Red indicates that the scanner  
should look for a range of RGB reds close to pure red and remove them from the image.  
More approximate—this option removes a wider range of colors based on the pure color selected in the list or  
defined in the custom fields.  
This option is only available when scanning in grayscale or black and white. The example below shows the original  
text with a red watermark and the resulting image with the color removed.

Perform Color Correction  
Apply color correction to the image so the displayed colors approximate the original item colors. Select this option to  
use the scanner’s default Gamma table which has been calibrated to produce the best quality color results for your  
scanner. When this option is not selected, the resulting scans will be dark and the brightness, contrast, and gamma  
options will require a greater amount of adjustment to affect the overall lightness of the image.  
Advanced Panel Options  
The options in this panel may also appear in the Main panel, but with additional settings for you to fine-tune the  
feature you've selected. Select the Advanced source configuration mode to show this panel.  
Despeckle  
This option removes speckles from the background. Speckles are small spots on an image that the scanner  
interpreted as a valid part of the document. For example, an irregularity in the paper, a small wrinkle, or holes where  
a staple was removed may show up as speckles in the scanned image. The Despeckle option identifies these spots  
and removes them. This option is only available when scanning in black and white.  
Radius—this is the size of the area that is evaluated for stray dots.  
Number—this is the maximum number of dots within the radius that should be considered a speckle. If this number  
of dots are in the circle, the dots will not be considered a speckle and remain in the image. If there are less than this  
number of dots in the circle, the dots are considered a speckle and removed from the image.  
For example, if the radius is 3 and the number is 5, then the document is evaluated in sections of 3x3 pixels and if  
there are more than 5 stray dots within a 3x3 area, they are not considered a speckle.  
Filter  
Use the Filter option to increase or decrease the sharpness in the scanned image. Click the drop down menu and  
select an option from the list.

Moiré Reduction  
Moiré patterns are wavy or rippled lines that may appear in the scanned images of newspapers and magazines, and  
sometimes scanned images of photos, line drawings, and color scans of textured paper. Select the Moiré reduction  
option to have the driver attempt to find and remove moiré patterns from the image. Please note that when Moiré  
reduction is enabled the scanner may scan slower as the image is checked for moiré patterns. This option is only  
available when scanning in Color or Gray.  
Image with moiré patterns

Moiré radius—you can set the size of the area to be evaluated in the Moiré radius field. Adjusting the radius will  
produce different results for the various types of items that can be scanned. With this feature, you may have to test  
scan a few times, adjusting the Moiré radius as needed, until you obtain the best results for the type of paper in your  
scan job. Note that the higher the number is in the Moiré radius field, the longer it will take the driver to evaluate the  
image.  
White Level  
With this option you can set what the scanner should interpret as “white” in the final image, even though the page  
being scanned may have a shaded or off-white background. You may want to adjust this option to have the image  
automatically corrected when you are scanning irregular paper, such as thick or thin paper, that may cause the  
white page in the final image to appear shaded with a pale grey.  
For the best automatic results you can simply select the type of paper you are scanning from the list. Alternatively,  
you can input a number in the Custom value field. The value you set in this field can be from 128 to 255. If you set  
the custom value to 128 you are telling the scanner that all pixels that are grey level 128 or higher (lighter) should  
be changed to white in the final image. If you set the custom value to 255, you are telling the scanner that only pure  
white is white and anything lower than 255 should remain unchanged in the final image.  
Black Level  
With this option you can set what the scanner should interpret as “black” in the final image. If you are scanning  
items that have notes written with a pencil, you may want to raise the black level to have the pencil notes appear  
black in the image. You can set a value for black from 0 to 127. If you set this value to 127, you are telling the  
scanner that all pixels that are grey level 127 or lower (darker) should appear as black in the final image.

scanner hardware properties. When the Advanced configuration mode is selected, a scanner panel option will be  
available for you to change any hardware settings that may be available for your scanner.  
Disabled Options in this Section  
Some options in the interface may be grayed out and cannot be selected. Grayed out options are either not  
appropriate for the current scanner, the software needed to enable the feature is not installed, or the feature is  
dependent on another setting in the scanner's interface. Hover the mouse cursor over a grayed out feature to see  
information about why the feature is unavailable.  
Module Configuration  
When image processing modules are installed they will appear in the list on the Configure tab. Use this tab to  
enable the modules you want to use when scanning.  
There are some features in the scanner interface that are disabled until a module is installed that contains those  
options. When the module is installed, the features will enable in the scanner interface for you to use them.  
Reordering the Modules  
Select a module in the list and click the up or down arrow to change the order of the module in the list. Changing the  
order of the modules changes the order in which the image processing options are used. For example, if there are  
two modules installed and both modules include an automatic image rotation option, the first module's rotate  
option is used and the rotate setting in the second module is ignored so that the image is not rotated twice.

Cleaning the Scanner  
Regular maintenance of your scanner can help to ensure continual optimal performance.  
Using a soft, dry, lint-free cloth, wipe down all plastic surfaces on the outside of the scanner, input tray and paper  
exit path.  
Cleaning the Automatic Document Feeder  
You may need to clean the ADF feed mechanism if documents do not feed easily into the ADF, or several feed in at  
the same time.  
1. Wet a soft cloth with some Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol).  
2. Pull on the ADF cover to open the scanner.  
3. Wipe the feed roller from side to side. Rotate the roller to clean its entire surface.  
The feed roller is located in the underside of the ADF door.  
Note: Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is designed to rotate in one direction only. As  
you’re cleaning the roller, make sure it rotates easily, and continue rotating it in that direction while wiping it  
clean. Do NOT force the roller to rotate in the opposite direction. Forcing the roller to rotate will damage it,  
and may cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.  
4. Wipe the ADF pad from top to bottom.  
5. Close the ADF cover. Carefully press down on the ADF cover until it locks in place with a “click”.

Replacing the Roller Assembly  
After extended use, the feed roller may wear out. It is a user-replaceable part and  
can be reordered.  
Frequent paper jams are a symptom of a worn roller assembly. A worn roller can  
cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple pages to feed at the  
same time. A worn roller should be replaced to avoid damage to the scanner’s internal parts. Before replacing the  
roller you should clean it as excessive dust on the roller will make it appear worn and smooth. You cannot properly  
diagnose a worn roller until you have cleaned it.  
1. Pull on the ADF cover to open the scanner.  
2. The roller assembly fits in a channel in the ADF cover.  
3. The roller is held in place with a lock tab that rotates to lock and unlock it. To unlock the tab, rotate it upward  
until the small lock flange is completely free.

Troubleshooting  
Problem: The scanner won’t scan. What’s wrong?  
Check for one of these possible problems:  
Is a cable loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect all cable connections. Make sure all the cables are  
plugged in securely.  
Is the scanner’s status light on? Turn on the scanner’s power. If the status light doesn’t come on, plug the  
power supply into another electrical outlet.  
Did you restart the computer after installing the software? If you didn’t restart the computer, it may not  
have loaded all of the software files. Try restarting your computer.  
Did you select another TWAIN source for acquiring images? If you use multiple TWAIN devices with your  
computer, you may have selected another source for images. Start the OmniPage software and make sure  
TWAIN:Xerox DocuMate 4830 is selected as your scanner.  
Problem: Why does my scanner not function after performing a system restore on Windows XP or Windows Vista?  
The system restore process may have corrupted some of the driver components. It is recommended that you  
reinstall your scanner driver.  
Problem: Why won’t my scanner buttons work after scanning with Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)?  
After performing a scan using the WIA interface you must close the application you were using before scanning with  
the buttons on the scanner. This does not occur when scanning using the TWAIN or ISIS interface.  
Problem: Why won’t my scanner work after the computer has been sitting idle for several hours?  
To resolve the problem, simply turn off the scanner power then turn it back on again.  
This may occur after Windows goes into power saving mode to “hibernate” the computer into a low power state.  
When you move your mouse or type on the keyboard it “wakes” the computer back up and restores full power to the  
system. This power fluctuation during the computer’s hibernating period may sometimes cause the scanner to lose  
communication to the computer.  
Problem: The installation will not complete successfully. If installation finishes, the scanner’s OneTouch options do  
not seem to work properly.  
A likely cause is that some driver programs are already installed on your computer for another scanner. They are  
interfering with the installation and OneTouch options, and you need to remove those other drivers and re-install  
your Xerox DocuMate 4830 scanner. Please see the documentation that you received with the other scanner for the  
steps to remove its driver programs. After uninstalling the other scanner’s driver programs, uninstall OneTouch using  
the steps on page 194 then install OneTouch following the instructions in the Installation chapter.  
Problem: My computer keeps giving me out of hard drive space error messages.  
The minimum requirement of 350MB free hard drive space is for the installation of the software and basic, low  
resolution, scanning. High resolution scans result in files that can be over 1 gigabyte in size. Free up some space on  
your hard drive for the software to be able to save the scanned images.

Problem: When using "Create single image files" not all of the pages scanned are sent to the destination I chose.  
There are a limited number of times that an application can open. When "Create single image files" is selected and  
you are scanning to a destination application, each side of the page scanned will open a new instance of that  
application. If you want to have an image open in an application immediately, limit your scan batch to less than 5  
pages.  
Alternatively, you can set your destination to be a folder location on your computer or network using "Transfer to  
Storage". Select any file format and then scan a large batch of papers. At the end of scanning, the driver will  
immediately save all pages scanned to that folder location without opening an application.  
Problem: I have selected "Skip Blank Originals" but not all of the blank pages have been removed.  
If you are scanning light weight paper, such as 16lb or 18lb printer paper, the scanner may be picking up faint  
images through the paper and the driver will not drop those pages out of the final file. The "Skip Blank Originals"  
result will vary based on the DPI range and paper weight. Generally 100 dpi or 150 dpi produces the best results.  
Problem: I tried to 'Repair' the OneTouch application by using the 'Change' function through the Add/Remove  
Program within the Control Panel and was not able to repair it.  
1. Before attempting to repair OneTouch, unplug the USB cable connected to the scanner.  
2. Perform the Change/Repair function again. If you are asked for the Install DVD, insert the disc into the DVD-  
ROM player and click OK.  
3. When prompted, plug the USB cable back into the scanner.  
4. When the installation process finishes, click OK on the Complete The Installation window, and then click Close.  
5. Reboot your computer.  
Problem: OneTouch no longer functions after installing Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP. How do I resolve this  
issue?  
This is a known issue where OneTouch stops responding when Internet Explorer 7 is installed after the scanner. To  
resolve the issue:  
1. Open the Windows Add/Remove Programs feature from the Control Panel.  
2. Find Windows Internet Explorer 7 and uninstall it using the change/remove options. Follow the wizard through  
a complete removal of the Internet Explorer 7 software.  
3. Find OneTouch and uninstall it using the change/remove options. Follow the wizard through a complete  
removal of the OneTouch program.  
4. Unplug your scanner's USB cable from the computer.  
5. Reboot your computer.  
6. Install Internet Explorer 7.  
7. Install your scanner driver.  
Problem: I am getting an error message that OCR fails every time I try to scan using the OCR features from  
OneTouch. What is the problem?  
Anti-SpyWare software that is set to always run may interfere with the driver functionality. It is recommended that  
you temporarily disable or suspend the automatic protection feature during scanning. After scanning is complete  
and your file has been saved, turn the auto-protect feature back on. You do not need to close the Anti-SpyWare  
software.  
Problem: With AutoCrop to Original selected, sometimes I get blank pages, or pages with lines.  
The pages were probably scanned in crooked, or skewed. To use AutoCrop to Original, the pages must be scanned in  
straight. Adjust the paper guides on the scanner so pages feed in straight.

Problem: Paper is jamming constantly in the ADF.  
To reduce the number of paper jams, smooth and straighten the paper before scanning, and adjust the guides to  
the paper size. Paper fed into the ADF at an angle can cause the feed mechanism to jam. If paper jams are  
occurring more frequently, try cleaning the roller with a soft cloth dampened with Isopropyl rubbing alcohol.  
Excessive dust on the roller can make it appear worn and will also cause issues feeding paper. See Cleaning the  
Automatic Document Feeder on page 184 for cleaning instructions.  
Problem: The ADF won’t feed pages properly.  
A dirty or worn ADF pad assembly or dirt on the roller can cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or  
multiple pages to feed at the same time. Try cleaning the roller first. See Cleaning the Automatic Document Feeder  
on page 184. If that doesn’t solve the problem, the pad assembly may need to be replaced. See Replacing the ADF  
Pad Assembly on page 186 for the steps to replace the pad.  
Problem: The paper jams about halfway through the scan.  
Check the Flatbed glass to make sure no items are on it when you scan from the ADF. Multiple items placed on the  
Flatbed glass will raise the lid slightly, thus preventing the pages feeding through the ADF from touching the glass.  
When that occurs, the pages are unable to feed back out of the ADF and the pages can jam.  
Problem: The scans from the ADF are always crooked.  
Make sure to align the paper guides to the edges of the paper. If you are scanning small items that are smaller than  
the paper guides’ minimum adjustment, scan these items on the Flatbed glass instead.  
Problem: If the USB cable is disconnected during a scan, the scanner does not reconnect when the USB cable is  
plugged back in.  
Unplug the power cable from the scanner, and then plug it back in.  
If the scanner does not reconnect:  
1. Unplug the power cable from the scanner.  
2. Restart your computer.  
3. After the restart is complete, plug the power cable back in.
