1. Introduction  
Welcome  
Thank you for purchasing an Info ImageReader Scanner. This  
product is the result of our efforts to develop high technology  
computer peripherals that are easy to use, affordably priced, and  
that enhance your computing experience. The FB7 is designed in  
an exact A4 size and less weight in an aim to save the most space  
possible while maintaining the highest quality scanning results as  
well as quality optical resolution at 300 x 600 dpi.  
Using this manual  
This manual includes complete instructions for scanner  
installation, use, and maintenance. Note that se,Ó in this  
context, refers to scanner operation independent of the task  
performed with the application software. This guide is organized  
in a o as you readÓ format. For best results, perform the tasks as  
they are presented.  
This manual assumes that you have a basic understanding of the  
DOS and Windows operating system. As a convention, this guide  
presents all references to guide names or sections in italics, and  
commands you must type at a command line are presented in a  
different typeface.

What is TWAIN?  
TWAIN is the interface that links the scanner with scanning  
software applications. TWAIN is an industry standard that enables  
you to use the ImageReader with any TWAIN-compliant software  
application.  
With the introduction of Windows 95, the TWAIN specification  
has been overhauled to take advantage of the 32-bit architecture.  
Your scanner installation software contains two TWAIN sources  
— one for using your scanner with 16-bit applications (i.e.  
InfoCenter Lite) and one for using your scanner with 32-bit  
applications (i.e. Adobe Photoshop). Use the following as a guide  
to select the appropriate source.  
16-bit applications are legacy Windows 3.x programs that you are  
running under Windows 95.  
32-bit applications are programs specifically designed for  
Windows 95, to take advantage of performance enhancements  
provided by the new architecture.  
Please Note: Windows 3.1x does not support 32-bit applications,  
therefore the 16-bit scanning source should always be selected  
when running Windows 3.1x. You may experience scanning  
problems if you do not use the appropriate source.  
A note about application software  
The scanner hardware by itself is not very useful. It takes a  
combination of the scanner hardware and application software to  
1.-2  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
perform any task. Before scanning, you need to choose the  
appropriate application(s) to use for the task at hand. Please read  
this section to gain an understanding of the types of scanning  
software there are.  
Scanning software generally falls into two groups, Graphics  
(image editing), or OCR (Optical Character Recognition). Each  
type has specific features designed to address the technical  
challenges faced in the scanning of graphics or of text.  
Graphics: Software provides the user with image editing tools for  
performing extensive modifications to art, photographs, or other  
continuous tone images. While having the ability to scan text,  
unlike OCR software it is not designed to specifically identify  
individual characters. Any image scanned using a graphics  
program can only be saved in a graphics file format (i.e. Tiff or  
Gif). It cannot be saved as an editable text file. Your system  
software CD includes iPhoto Express image editing software to  
facilitate your image editing requirements.  
OCR: Software in this category is designed to recognize  
alphanumeric characters in preparation for export to word  
processing and desktop publishing applications. In other terms, it  
creates text files. OCR software will not provide image editing  
capabilities. If there is no intention of editing a given piece of text  
(with or without graphics), it may be simpler to scan and save it as  
a graphic. OCR is one of many scanning control features included  
in the InfoCenter application software included on your system  
software CD.  
Additional types of applications are available that offer solutions  
for special or unique tasks. These include document storage, form  
scanning, fax utilities, copy utilities, custom screen saver creation,  
photo album creation, and so on. If applications are intended to  
link directly to the scanning device, look for the TWAIN-

compliant specification. If compliant, you may use these  
application to scan with your ImageReader scanner.

3. System Requirements  
System requirements are largely dependent on the ”workÓ  
performed. By work, we are referring to the task or operation  
performed using the scanner in conjunction with application  
software.  
Because scanners are capable of inputting large amounts of data in  
relatively short periods of time, they commonly push computer  
systems to the limits of their capabilities. Before beginning any  
scanning task or operation, carefully consider your system  
processing capabilities, especially processor speed, RAM, and  
available hard disk space. OCR processes, fax operations, and the  
processing of simple black & white graphics are least demanding.  
High resolution scanning of large images in full color creates an  
extreme demand for processor time and memory.  
When you are scanning with the TWAIN interface, the number  
labeled image size (calculated in bytes) provides the working file  
size that is the result of the selected scanning mode, resolution,  
and image size. Take careful note of this information.  
Minimum and recommended system requirements are:  
* IBM compatible PC 386/486, Pentium or later;  
* Microsoft Windows 3.1,Windows 95, Windows NT;  
* One printer port available (enhanced parallel port  
recommended);  
* 20 Megabytes of available hard disk space for installation;  
* 8 Megabytes of RAM (16 Megabytes or higher  
recommended);  
* A video graphics array (VGA) monitor;

Scanning Parameters & Image Control  
Resolution: The number of dpi (dots (pixels) per square inch)  
that the FB7 uses for a scan. Generally, denser  
pixel coverage per square inch (higher resolution)  
results in sharper images. Please note: Scanning  
resolution has a direct impact on the scanned image  
file size - higher resolution settings result in a larger  
file size. Increased demands on your disk space  
due to high resolution settings can also slow down  
the scanning process. Avoid exceeding the  
recommended resolution settings for your scanning  
task (refer to the scanning software User Guide).  
Brightness: Adjusts the lightness or darkness of an image. The  
higher the value, the brighter the image.  
Contrast:  
Adjusts the range between the darkest and the  
lightest shades in the image. The higher the  
contrast, the bigger the different gray scales.

6.1  
Questions and Answers  
Question: Why do I receive the error message ”Scanner Test  
FailedÓ when attempting to scan?  
The following steps should also be followed if your scanner connection test  
(described in step 3 of Quick Start Guide) is unsuccessful.  
Answer 1: Verify that the correct scanning source was selected. Open  
”Select SourceÓ from the File menu. If you are using a 16  
bit application to scan (i.e. InfoCenter Lite) select the 16-bit  
scanning source (ImageReader Ultra\16v4.00) If you are  
scanning from a 32-bit application (i.e. Adobe Photoshop)  
select the 32-bit scanning source (ImageReader  
Ultra\32v4.00). Then attempt to scan - if the problem persists  
- restart your computer.  
Please note: The 32-bit source is only available under  
Windows 95. Windows 3.1 users should always select the  
16-bit scanning source.  
Answer 2: Check that your scanner is connected and tightly screwed in to  
the computer’s port  
Answer 3: Check that the AC power cord is connected to the scanner and  
power outlet.  
Answer 4: Follow instructions below to adjust your computer’s BIOS  
printer port setting to EPP, ECP or SPP (according to what  
your computer supports)  
Changing your BIOS Setting  
6.-1  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The FB735 - ImageReader Ultra scanner requires that your computer is a  
PC System with a 486 or Pentium Processor with PCI slots, it must have a  
motherboard that supports EPP, ECP or SPP parallel port. EPP is  
recommended in order to achieve the fastest scans. After installing the  
scanner, you may need to change Printer Port (LPT type) in your BIOS or  
CMOS settings to accommodate desired (EPP, ECP or SPP) connection.  
Please consult your computer’s hardware manual for instructions if you are  
unsure about how to accomplish this. If your system does not support  
EPP, SPP or ECP call (800) 777-3208 ext. 2534 to order an EPP  
interface card.  
Caution!  
Changing your BIOS or CMOS settings can render your computer system  
inoperable. Use caution to ensure that only the Parallel mode is changed.  
Please consult your computer hardware manual for instructions specific to  
your system.  
To Change Your Parallel Port Mode Setting (in most systems):  
1. Restart your computer and when in start-up mode press your delete  
key, this will take you to the BIOS or CMOS menu.  
2. locate the Parallel Port option, it will tell you what address the  
parallel port is set for and the mode of the port.  
3. Read your screen for instructions on how to change settings, and  
change your LPT setting to EPP or ECP.  
4. Save changes and exit.  
Question:  
Why do my scanning results seem dark?  
Answer: 1) Modify the Gamma setting to 1.8 for your monitor and, when  
printing, set Gamma to 2.2 for your printer (refer to your  
monitor/printer manuals for instructions on performing  
gamma adjustments).  
2) Prior to scanning, increase the Brightness setting of the  
TWAIN user interface.  
Question: The scanning speed of my scanner is much slower than that  
of those installed at other computers. Can I speed it up?  
Answer:  
Set your PC printer port to the EPP mode in your BIOS setup.  
6.-2  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
EPP is the fastest and most recommended mode to use. If you  
do not have this option, you may need to purchase an EPP  
Interface card. Call Info Peripherals at (800)777-3208 ext.  
2534.  
Question: How long does it take for the scanner to initialize?  
Answer:  
If your printer port supports SPP mode only, it takes about two  
minutes for the scanner to initialize. If your printer port  
supports EPP mode, the initialization speed is much faster,  
about 20 seconds.  
Printer Questions  
Question: What is the function of the Pass-Through Port?  
Answer:  
The ImageReader Ultra is conveniently equipped with a pass-  
through port. This port allows you to connect any other  
parallel port device such as a printer to the scanner so that  
they can share the same port from your computer.  
Question: How do I use the pass-through port?  
Answer:  
Connect the printer’s cable to the port labeled Printer on the  
back of the scanner. Both the scanner and the printer are now  
sharing the same parallel port and can be used at any time,  
except in tandem.  
Question: Sometimes my pass-through printing does not work at all,  
why?  
Answer:  
Your scanner may be off. When performing pass-through  
printing, be sure the scanner is on (indicated by the power  
light on scanner front).  
Question: After installing Works for Windows, my overall printing speed  
has slowed dramatically. Why?  
Answer:  
If you have installed Works for Windows, it adds entries into your  
win.ini file for the Windows Printing System (WPS). This entry  
will slow your printing speed considerably. To correct the  
problem, perform the following adjustments:  
1. Edit your win.ini file. From Windows 3.x, click File then  
6.-3  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
select Run. Type in sysedit and click OK. From Windows 95,  
click Start, select Run. Type in sysedit and click OK.  
2. Close all windows that appear and leave the one labeled  
C:\windows\win.ini (The title may be different if you have  
windows on a different drive or different directory name. In  
either case you will see win.ini at the end of it)  
3. Click search then find. Type in the text: MS Text Converters  
and click Find.  
4. You should see 2 lines, one that starts with MSWorksWin.  
The line below it starts with Works for Dos 2.0.At the end of  
both lines delete the entry ,wps.  
5. Now click File then Exit. When prompted to save changes, do  
so. After a restart of your computer, your printing should be  
back to normal  
If you are experiencing any printer problems check the following:  
1) Check scanner cable connection. Be sure the cable is  
plugged into the port marked Printer on the back of the  
scanner  
2) Adjust your printer spooler. Occasionally there may be a  
conflict between ImageReader Ultra scanner and specific  
printers. An indication of this occurs when an attempt to print  
prompts the error message printer not foundÓ or printer not
