  • Ultrasonic Double Feed Detection
    The scanner stops feeding when the ultrasonic sensor detects that two or more document pages are feeding at the same time.

  • Double feed detection by length
    The scanner stops feeding when a double feed is detected by comparing document page lengths.
    * Based on the length of the first document page, the scanner detects a double feed when fed a different-length page.

  • Prescan
    At the start of scanning, this function presecans the first page and pauses so that you can adjust brightness and contrast before resuming scanning.

  • Text Orientation Detection
    The text orientation on each page is detected, and the scanned image is rotated in 90-degree increments as necessary for normalization.

Image Processing

  • Prevent Bleed Through/Remove Background
    Prevents the background or original image on the reverse side of thin originals from appearing in scanned images.

  • Document orientation
    The text orientation on each fed page is detected, and the scanned image is rotated in 90-degree increments as necessary to match.

  • Deskew
    If a scanned image is detected to be skewed, the skewed image is straightened.
    Example of Deskew

  • Color Drop-out
    The scanner is equipped with a Color Drop-out function that enables you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from scanned images during monochrome or grayscale scanning.

  • Thickening Text and Lines
    If text and lines in scanned images are very thin, this function corrects for their thickness while scanning.
