Centralized Management of Scanners

This section explains about managing a large number of scanners in a unified manner by providing the following capabilities.

• Simultaneously update settings for multiple scanners and their drivers.

Because there is no need to update each scanner one by one, a significant reduction is achieved in the time required to update a large number of scanners.

• Monitor scanners to check for any consumable parts that require replacement, or the occurrence of errors.

The alerts for consumable part replacement and errors are provided by scanners, which provides an easy way of checking the operating status of scanners.

30

1.6 Centralized Management of Scanners

To enable the above functions, "Scanner Central Admin" is required which consists of four applications bundled with this product:

• Scanner Central Admin Server

Install this application in the main computer that is used for the centralized management of scanners.

By registering scanners on the Scanner Central Admin Server, you can build a system to run a unified management for all scanners.

• Scanner Central Admin Console

Install this application in a computer to upload update modules and to monitor the operating status of the scanners.

The administrators can perform these tasks from the Scanner Central Admin Console window, where they can also check the alerts for consumable replacement and errors sent from the scanners.

• Scanner Central Admin Agent

Install this application in a computer connected to a scanner. It allows scanners to link with the Scanner Central Admin Server.

Linking with the Scanner Central Admin Server will enable you to apply updates on scanner settings, and the scanner can also send alerts on consumable replacement and errors.

• SCAModule Creator

Use this application to create update modules to upload onto the Scanner Central

Admin Server.

It is only required for creating update modules.

[Resolution], [Scan Type], and [Image Mode].

The following functions cannot be used:

- [256 Color] or [8 Color]

- [Rotation Degree] when [End of Page Detection] is selected

- Long Page Scanning

When scanning a paper document and converting the scanned document image to PDF by using Acrobat, unexpected images may be output when:

1. Setting [Edge Shadow Removal] in Acrobat, and setting [Digital

Endorser] or [Black Background] options in the TWAIN driver at the same time. Character strings on images or part of background may be missed.

Solution 1: In Acrobat, select [File] - [Create PDF] - [From

Scanner...] - [Image Settings...], and set [Edge shadow removal] to

[OFF] or set [Color/Grayscale] and/or [Monochrome] under

[Compression] to a setting other than [Adaptive].

Solution 2: Adjust the scanning density in the TWAIN driver.

2. Setting [Color/Grayscale] and/or [Monochrome] to [Adaptive] under

[Compression] in Acrobat and scanning documents in a resolution lower than the recommended resolution for Acrobat.

Solution: Set [Color/Grayscale] and/or [Monochrome] to a setting other than [Adaptive] under [Compression].

3. Setting [Overscan] in the TWAIN driver because a document longer than the double letter (11x17) or A3 size cannot be loaded in

Acrobat.

Solution: When scanning a double letter (11x17) or A3 size document, do not set [Overscan] in TWAIN driver.

4. To configure PDF-related settings, click the [PDF Option] button (

The [Output PDF file] dialog box appears.

).

In this dialog box, you can change the compression rate, turn on the OCR function (to make searchable PDF files), and enhance the security of created PDF files by adding a password to.

[Basic] Tab

Change the compression rate for creating PDF files from scanned document images.

2

Compression Rate

Move the slider bar to change the compression rate.

The compression rate can be changed in five levels from 1 to 5. (By default, the compression rate is set to 3.)

Moving the slider bar to right increases the compression rate. Higher the compression rate, the smaller the file size, but the image quality is degraded.

This setting takes effect on color images only. When images are saved as monochrome images, this setting is ignored.

[Color High Compression] Checkbox

When this checkbox is marked, image portions in a color image are compressed at a higher rate separately from text. Therefore, when a document containing mostly text is scanned, the file size can be made smaller without causing text to become blurred. This setting is not suitable for scanning photographs and figures because the image quality of highly-compressed photographs and figures is degraded.

Marking this checkbox increases the system load, which may cause the scanner to take a very long time to scan.

fi-5530C2 Image Scanner Operator’s Guide

44

[OCR] Tab

You can configure settings so that PDF files are converted into searchable text when they are created from scanned document images.

Unless OCR (optical character recognition) is turned on, scanned document images are saved as PDF files in a format that computers cannot recognize, or in other words they are not made searchable. Through OCR, text on the image is recognized and text information is embedded into the image, making the image file searchable.

(Note that, if you turn on OCR, scanning takes time longer than if you do not.)

[Convert into Searchable PDF] Checkbox

The scanned document images are converted into searchable PDF files and saved.

Language

You can select a language to use for text recognition from the following:

English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Traditional/

Simplified Chinese,Portuguese, Russian.

[Make only the first page searchable] Checkbox

To prevent the rollers from becoming dirty, avoid scanning documents containing large areas written or filled in pencil. If scanning of such documents is inevitable, clean the rollers more frequently.

6.2 Document Quality

ATTENTION

Carbonless paper contains chemical substances that may harm the Pad

ASSY or rollers (e.g. Pick roller) when documents are fed. Pay attention to the following:

Cleaning: If document jams occur frequently, clean the Pad

ASSY and the Pick roller. For details on cleaning the

Pad ASSY and the Pick roller, refer to

"3.2 Cleaning the ADF" on page 80.

Replacing parts: The service life of the Pad ASSY and the Pick roller may be shortened compared to the case of scanning wood containing paper documents.

If paper containing wood is scanned, the service life of the Pad and Pick roller may become shorter than that of the Pad and Pick roller used for scanning only woodfree paper.

The pad or rollers of the scanner could be damaged if photographs or sheets of paper attached to the scanned document have contact with the pad or rollers during scanning.

Scanning documents of calendered paper such as photographs may damage the surface of them.

Document jam

A warning that appears when document is jammed in the transport unit, or transportation is Interrupted because the paper is slipping.

dpi

Dots per inch. Number of dots lined along one inch A measurement of resolution normally used for scanners and printers. Higher dpi means better resolution.

Driver software

In this manual, driver software refers to software that allows the scanning application software to communicate with the scanner.

Dropout color

A color which is used in the document but does not appear in the read image.

Duplex reading mode

A mode for scanning both sides of the document in one pass.

Eject rollers

Equipment Error

An error that cannot be fixed by the operator. The operator should call the manufacturer for service.

Error diffusion

High-quality halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image production based on black-and-white pixel binarization. A pixel's optical density and that of adjacent pixels are summed, with black pixels relocated in their order of density as they relate to adjacent pixels. The purpose of this technique is to minimize the average error between read and printed densities. Density data for adjacent pixels is modified by diffusing errors on the objective pixel into several pixels, which are then binarized. This maintains high grayscale levels and resolution during reading, while suppressing more patterns by dotted halftone images such as newspaper photographs.

FCC

The Part 15 of the FCC regulations mentioned in this manual is designed to prevent harmful interferences on radio communication of radio receivers and other devices which radiate radio frequency energy, and provides for the certification of radio receivers. It also provides the certification of low power transmitters and the operation of certificated transmitters without a license.

Feeds rollers

Rollers that feed documents through the ADF.

Filtering

A correction method that improves the read quality of handwritten documents. The read quality of images written in pencil or ball-pointed pen depends on the reflective light characteristics of the specific ink or lead used. Dropped pixels may produce outlines, gaps, or thin, barely connected lines due to uneven optical density. Filtering detects areas lighter than their surroundings and increases their density to improve image clarity.

Flat bed An input device of the scanner, where documents are placed and scanned.

Generally used for scanning pages out of a book, or paper that is out of the feeding specification of the ADF. Also used to scan a small volume of documents by manual operation.

Flatbed

An input device of the scanner, where documents are placed and scanned. Generally used for scanning pages out of a book, or paper that is out of the feeding specification of the ADF. Also used to scan a small volume of documents by manual operation.

Gamma

A unit of changes of images' brightness. It is expressed as a function of the electric input power to devices (scanner, display, etc.) and an image's brightness. If the gamma rate is larger than 1, the brightness of an image increases and vice versa. In order to adjust the brightness of an image close to the original, generally the gamma value is set to 1.

Grayscale

A method for realizing the gradation from black to white on the scanned image. For example, when scanning monochrome documents, the computer recognizes the document as sets of black and white dots. In the Gray scale method, each dot contains data regarding density of black. The original gradation of the document is realized as the gradation of the density data.

Halftone processing

Any method used to reproduce a photograph which includes a shade as an image composed of dots, namely, a binary image. Dithering and error diffusion processing are examples of halftone processing.

Image emphasis

Density is decreased for lighter but not completely white areas adjacent to black areas.

Weakening this emphasis eliminates spot noise or produces softened images.

Letter size

A standard paper size used in the U.S.A. and other countries. Paper size is 8-1/2 x 11 inches.

Linedrawing mode

Selecting linedrawing mode makes threshold and contrast settings effective but prevents brightness from being set. The specified threshold value determines whether black or white pixels are scanned. Line drawing mode is therefore appropriate for scanning text and line art images.

Multifeed detection

A scanner function which detects accidental feeding of multiple sheets into the ADF. This can be set as both enabled/disabled.

B fi-5530C2 Image Scanner Operator’s Guide

AP-9

AP-10

Moire Patterns

Recurrent patterns on scanned images caused by incorrect settings of angles.

Noise removal

Isolated noise from an image appearing as black spots in white areas and voids in black areas is removed to improve image quality.

Removes particles from the document image. Common particles include toner and fax particles. Noise reduction works via an algorithm that removes pixels up to 5 x 5 dots apart. A dot is 1/400 inch. A particle can be distinguished from a character as it is not connected to another dot within 5 pixels.

Terminator

Devices with a SCSI interface can be daisy-chained. A resistor that includes terminal circuits needs to be placed at both ends of the SCSI chain when devices are daisychained. If a device (such as a scanner) is the last device in a chain, leaving an interface connector unused, a Terminator therefore must be attached to provide those terminal circuits.

Third Party Interface

Used to install optional board provided by FUJITSU or interface board manufactured by a third party.

Threshold

A value used as a metric for judging a color as black or white. For scanning an image with gray gradation, this value must be defined. The threshold setting determines which pixels are converted to black and which will become white.
