Introduction
High-speed Double Sided Scanning
•
This scanner can scan documents at high speed, regardless of the image type (monochrome / color).
Background Color Switch Function
•
Using the software, you can switch the background color of scanned images between white and black.
Double Feed Detection Function
•
This scanner contains an ultrasonic sensor for the detection of double feeding. Double feeding can be

Double Feed Skip (DFS) Function
•
If scanning has been stopped because a double feed was detected, you can easily resume scanning by
pressing the Skip button. When you scan documents that include items that you do not want to be detected
as double feeding (for example, documents that have receipts attached, envelopes, etc.), the double feed
detection function can be enabled and still scan these documents.
Push Scan
•
This scanner has a push scan function for starting scanning without operation through a computer.
Scanning is started by selecting from settings that have been registered in advance with the cursor button,
and then pressing the scanner’s OK button*1 or Start/Stop button*2. This scanner also has a function that
starts scanning when you place documents on the feed tray (Touch Free Scanning).
