(This feature is available only if the ScanShell800\N scanner is connected!)
It allows for scanning undefined document sizes and continuous scan of the full length of the document. Once the scan is complete, the image is cropped automatically to its proper size. This feature is useful for scanning different documents of different sizes.
Paper auto detection - Checking this option will cause the scanner (ScanShell 800) to auto-detect document insertion and start the scanning and saving process automatically.
When using the ScanShell 1000 scanner, any of the scanner buttons can be pressed to start the scan.
If the ‘Paper auto detection’ is unchecked, the scanner starts scanning when you click on the Scan button in the main screen.
