Scanner Overview  
This section explains the main features of this product, the names of parts and their functions.  
Main Features  
The scanner is equipped with the following features:  
High speed scanning  
The scanner has achieved a scanning speed of 60 ppm/120 ipm (*1).  
Furthermore, up to 80 sheets of documents (*2) can be loaded for continuous scanning which enables you to  
quickly digitize a large volume of documents.  
Network connection  
The scanner can be connected via Wi-Fi or a wired LAN.  
Even with a network connection, a scanning speed of 60 ppm/120 ipm (*1) is possible.  
A USB cable is not required to connect the scanner and a computer so that the scanner can be placed  
anywhere.  
Touch screen  
The scanner has a 4.3-inch TFT color touch screen which enables you to operate the scanner with simple actions  
such as seeing and touching.  
The touch screen also enables you to specify various operational settings for scanning documents and check  
the number of sheets scanned or the error status with ease.  
Contactless smart card reader  
The scanner has a contactless smart card reader which enables you to easily log into the scanner by holding a  
smart card over the scanner.  
Capable of scanning documents folded in half, envelopes, multi-layered transfer paper  
In order to scan documents folded in half, envelopes, and multi-layered transfer paper, the scanner is equipped  
with a feed mode switch that is used to switch the mode to Manual Single Mode.  
Manual Single Mode reduces the load on documents being fed so that documents are fed and scanned  
successfully.  
Improved efficiency for pre-scan work  
The scanner can perform "mixed batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper  
weights and sizes at once.  
This simplifies the process of sorting the documents before scanning.  
17  
   
Scanner Overview  
Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds  
The scanner has ultrasonic multifeed sensors that accurately detect "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets  
are fed through the scanner at once.  
This detection for overlapped documents is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with  
different paper weights and sizes, avoiding potential work loss.  
Intelligent multifeed detection function  
When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location on the page, the intelligent multifeed  
detection function enables the scanner to recognize the location of the attachment.  
The scanner does not detect the recognized area where the attachment is on as overlapping of documents so  
that scanning can continue.  
Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise  
This function reduces the risk of having the valuable documents damaged by stopping the scan when the  
scanner detects paper jam noise.  
Advanced image processing function  
The automatic color detection function outputs images in color or monochrome depending on the document  
content.  
Capable of scanning photographs and clippings  
The Carrier Sheet is available as an option in order to scan photographs and clippings. Multiple Carrier Sheets  
can be scanned in one go, and can be mixed with regular documents in the same batch.  
Centralized operation of multiple scanners  
With PaperStream NX Manager, multiple scanners can be operated together.  
For example, you can specify users who can use the scanners and specify scanning menus that are customized  
for each user, and distribute them to the scanners.  
You can also save images in a specified linked destination, and monitor the processing status of images.  
For details, refer to the PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide.  
The PaperStream NX Manager User's Guide can be downloaded from the following web page:  
Centralized management of multiple scanners  
With Scanner Central Admin Server, multiple scanners can be managed together.  
For example, the application can be used to update the setting information and the firmware update module  
for all scanners at once, and check the operating status of each scanner.  
When PaperStream NX Manager is not used, you can use Scanner Central Admin Agent to link with Scanner  
Central Admin Server (*3).  
For details, refer to the Scanner Central Admin User's Guide.  
*1:When A4 size documents are scanned at 200/300 dpi using JPEG compression.

Precautions  
Notes on the documents to be scanned  
Depending on the documents to be scanned, take note of the following.  
Since carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may harm the rollers such as the brake roller and  
pick roller, take note of the following:  
- Cleaning  
If paper jams occur frequently, clean the brake roller and pick roller.  
For details, refer to Daily Care (page 112).  
- Replacing the consumables  
The life of the brake roller and pick roller may end sooner compared to scanning wood-free papers.  
When scanning wood containing papers, the life of the brake roller and pick roller may end sooner compared  
to scanning wood-free papers.  
The brake roller and pick roller may be damaged when a photo/sticky note on a document comes into contact  
with these parts during scanning.  
The surface of the document may be damaged when gloss papers such as photographs are scanned.  
The light of the LED may reflect brightly when gloss papers are scanned.  
When scanning semi-transparent documents, set [Brightness] higher in the scanner driver to avoid bleed-  
through.  
When you scan documents written in lead pencil, make sure you clean the rollers frequently.  
For details about cleaning, refer to Daily Care (page 112).  
If documents are not fed, or documents are fed overlapped or jammed frequently, refer to Troubleshooting  
All documents must be flat on the leading edge.  
Make sure that curls on the leading edge of the documents are kept within the following range.  
Notes on plastic cards  
When you scan plastic cards, take note of the following.  
Make sure you use a card that contains the following specifications, and check if the card can be fed before  
scanning it.  
- Type: Compliant with the ISO7810 ID-1 type  
- Size: 85.6 × 53.98 mm  
81  
 
How to Load Documents  
- Thickness: 1.4 mm or less  
- PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or PVCA (polyvinyl chloride acetate)  
Up to three plastic cards can be loaded in the ADF paper chute (feeder).  
Note that you can only load one card at a time if the plastic card is embossed.  
It is recommended that the card should be placed face-down in the ADF paper chute.  
Thick or rigid cards that are difficult to bend may be fed skewed.  
If there is dirt on the surface of the card, such as grease marks (fingerprints), perform scanning after wiping  
the dirt off.  
Scanning a thick document such as a plastic card will always be falsely detected as overlapped documents.  
In that case, specify one of the following settings and try scanning again.  
- Use the intelligent multifeed detection function.  
- Disable the setting to detect overlapped documents by the ultrasonic sensor.  
- Scan with Manual Single Mode.  
82

Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning  
The following conditions apply when a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights/friction  
coefficients/sizes is scanned.  
Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the mixed batch of documents can be fed.  
Paper Direction  
Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.  
Paper Weight (Thickness)  
Documents with the following paper weights can be scanned when scanning a mixed batch of documents  
with different paper weights:  
2
27 to 413 g/m (7.2 to 110 lb)  
Friction Coefficient  
It is recommended that the same paper brand from the same manufacturer is used for documents.  
When different paper manufacturers/brands are mixed in documents to be scanned, it affects the feeding  
performance as the difference in friction coefficient increases.  
The following friction coefficients are recommended:  
0.35 to 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient)  
Document Position  
Load all documents covering the width of the pick roller.  
For a guideline for mixed batch scanning, refer to Combinations of Standard Paper Sizes in a Mixed Batch  
87  
 
How to Load Documents  
HINT  
When the smallest document covers the width of the pick roller even when it is loaded towards one side  
as shown in the image below, load documents aligned on one side. So that it prevents documents from  
skewing when being fed.  
Paper Size  
When a mixed batch with different sizes is scanned, not feeding the documents straight may cause  
troubles such as paper jams or part of the image to appear missing.  
It is recommended that you check the scanned images if the documents were fed skewed.  
ATTENTION  
When a mixed batch with different sizes is scanned, documents are more likely to skew because the  
side guides do not contact every sheet.  
Do not specify the detection method by document length when scanning a mixed batch of documents  
with different lengths and detecting overlapped documents.

Various Ways to Scan  
Configuring Not to Detect Certain Overlap Patterns  
If detecting overlapped documents during a scan is set, when you scan a document with a paper attachment  
such as a sticky note, receipt, or photo, it is detected as overlapped documents, and the scan may stop. Use the  
intelligent multifeed detection function not to detect these types of documents.  
This function has two modes, a mode that is used to configure the settings manually by a user every time the  
scanner detects overlapped documents, and a mode that is used to configure the settings automatically by the  
scanner based on the overlap patterns (length and location) for paper attachments such as sticky notes,  
receipts, or photos that the scanner has memorized.  
To use this setting, detecting overlapped documents needs to be set in advance.

Description  
Carrier Sheets  
PA03360-0013  
Use this option to scan non-standard size documents  
such as photographs and clippings.  
Using the Carrier Sheets enable you to scan  
documents that can be damaged quite easily such as  
photographs, or documents that are difficult to load  
directly such as newspaper clippings.  
When a Carrier Sheet is too damaged or worn out to  
be used for scanning, extra carrier sheets can be  
purchased separately (5 sheets per set).  
The Carrier Sheet should be replaced approximately  
every 500 scans.  
However, replace it if damage or dirt is noticeable.  
For details about purchasing the scanner options and more information, contact the distributor/dealer where  
you purchased this product. Or, make an inquiry by referring to the contact information at the Contact for  
Inquiries section in Safety Precautions bundled with this product.
