Binarization This is the process of converting a grayscale or color image to a bi-tonal

image. There are several different methods of performing this conversion.
Options: Fixed Processing.

Fixed Processing: Used for black-and-white and other high contrast

documents. A single level is set to determine the black-and-white
transition. The threshold is programmable over the entire density range.
Fixed Processing sets Contrast to 0. If Fixed Processing is selected,
Contrast is not available.

Threshold Used to convert a grayscale image to a

bi-tonal image. The value ranges from 0 to 255. A low threshold value
produces a lighter image, and can be used to subdue backgrounds and
subtle, unneeded information. A high threshold value produces a darker
image, and can be used to help pick up faint images.
Adjust the threshold setting by dragging the Threshold sliding bar to the left
or right to achieve the desired threshold setting.

Resolution A good control of the resolution results a good detail of an image that
scans. The resolution is measured by dots per inch (dpi). Normally,
the greater the dpi number, the higher the resolution and the image
file size. Be aware that greater resolution takes more time to scan,
and more disk space for the scanning image. For your information, an
A4 size color image scanned at 300 dpi at True Color mode consumes
approximately 25 MB of disk space. A higher resolution (usually
means over 600 dpi) is only recommended when you need to scan a
small area at True Color mode.
Choose a resolution value from the drop down list. The default value is
200 dpi. Available resolutions are 75, 100, 150, 200,300, 400 and
600. Or you may choose your desired value by clicking the box in the
right side of the drop down list and press the arrow key to select your
desired value and then click the Add button to include it in the drop
down list. Note: The resolution is up to 300 dpi if an imprinter or a
MICR reader is installed or connected to the scanner.

Invert Reverses the brightness and the colors in the image. The default setting is

6.3 The Compression Tab

The Compression tab allows you to compress your scanned image and choose the level of
compression. Bi-tonal images are normally compressed using CCITT standard called Group 4
(G4). Color and grayscale images are often compressed using JPEG technology. Move the
JPEG Quality slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the level of compression. Note
the greater the compression level, the lower image quality. Default is 50%.

Note that the compression depends on your image editing application. If your image editing
application does not support the type of compression format, then either a warning message
will appear or the image quality of the compressed file will not be acceptable.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Editor Group): This group developed and lent their name to a file
compression standard for color and grayscale images that is widely used by scanners, and
software applications. On Microsoft Windows-based systems, a file with the extension .jpg
has normally been compressed using this standard.

For scanning color or gray images, the following compressions are available:
 None
 JPEG

For scanning B&W images, the following compressions are available:

 None

Long Page (<36”).

OverScan
Overscan allows you to add a specific margin at top and bottom or right and left (Options
vary based on the type of scanner) of the edge of the image. This is used to reduce possible
corner clipping on the skewed images and often applied to a batch of skewed document to be
scanned in the auto document feeder. Select a value between 0 and +5 mm. Note the
overscan result will not be shown in the Display window and that the availability of the
function varies based on type of scanner.

Transport Timeout
Set the amount of time the scanner will wait and then start auto scan after the first scan job
is completed. If you have many separate documents need to be scanned at the same scan
settings, this feature is especially useful. The default is 0. The value ranges from 0 to 30
seconds.

Note:
Within the specified timeout period, if you load your document to the feeder, the scanner
starts scanning automatically.

6.8 The Setting Tab

The Setting tab allows you to set the following settings:

The Setting tab dialog box

Cache Mode: None, Page Number, Memory Size.

This option allows you to assign a specified memory size from the
available RAM to process the image data. By specifying a smaller
memory size, you can free more memory for other applications
you are running. By specifying a larger memory size, you can
have more memory to process the image data especially when
you have a large amount of documents needed to be scanned.
You can also specify your memory size by the page number. For
your information, an A4 color document scanning at 300 dpi
consumes approximates 24MB.
Image Count
When the selected cache mode is “none”, the image count option
allows you to assign number of pages you need to scan. For
example, if you wish to scan the first two pages, simply move the
page slider to 2, and the scan action will be stopped when the
scanning of the first two pages have been completed.

7.2 Calibrate the Scanner

Calibrate only if the scanned image looks fuzzy, the color looks abnormal (e.g., darker than
normal), after more than 8,000 scans, or the scanner has been stored without use for a long
time. The calibration process resets the Contact Image Sensor to resume its color and
sharpness precision.

1. Open the document extension plate.

2. Make sure the Document Guides are unfolded as shown in the image (1).

3. Hold the edges of the calibration sheet (which you find in the product box) and insert it
with the text FACING DOWN (2).
4. Align it to the right and make sure the white area is fed first (3).
5. Turn on the scanner by moving the Power switch to the [ON] position.

6. To enter the calibration mode, press and hold the [Color/BW] until [CAL] is displayed
on the screen and the [Scan] LED flashes in green, indicating you are in calibration
mode.

7. Press the [Scan] button. The calibration sheet will be fed through.
8. When the calibration process is finished, [OK] is displayed on the screen.

Notes:
 If the calibration process failed, the red led flashes and [E19] is displayed on the
screen. Power off the scanner and repeat the calibration.
 To keep the calibration sheet feeding straight, slightly the top edge of the sheet when
the sheet begins to feed through.
Calibrate the Scanner in PC mode:
Alternatively, you may also follow these steps to calibrate the scanner in PC mode.
1. Follow step 1 to 5 as described above.

4. Select “IRIScan Pro Wifi” as your scanner model. The main window of Capture Tool
will be displayed.
5. Choose the “Setting” tab and then the “Calibration” button.
6. The calibration card will be fed through and LCD screen shows “Cal”.
7. After the calibration process is finished, [OK] will be displayed on the screen.
Warning:
If the calibration process failed, the Red LED will be flashing and [E19] will be displayed on
the screen. Power off the scanner and then repeat the calibration step again.

Warning:
 Do not interrupt the calibration sequence or try to shut off the device while it is
calibrating. If you stop the calibration before it has completed, a calibration error may
occur. As a result, you will have to power off the unit and repeat the instructions in this
section.
 Calibrate the scanner only when color of the scanned image looks abnormal.
 Keep the calibration sheet from dust and debris. Any dirt may make the calibration chart
invalid or impact the calibration result.
 Use only the included calibration sheet to calibrate the scanner.

It is recommended to replace the feed roller or separation pad when the total number of
pages of documents fed in the scanner exceeds one of the following quantities:
Feed Roller: 100,000 sheets
Separation Pad: 10,000 sheets

Follow these steps to replace the separation pad and feed roller.
