Patch Detect indicates whether or not the scanner detected a toggle
patch on the document (side independent). If a toggle patch appears on
a document, all images created from this document will have this
indicator set in their image header.
Toggle Patch indicates the side of the document where the where
the toggle patch was detected. If a toggle patch appears on a
document, only the images created from the side of the document
containing the patch will have this indicator set in their image header.
Zone processing Some applications have a requirement to store part of an image in color
or grayscale and the rest of the image in black and white format (this
saves storage space by not storing the entire image in color or
grayscale). Zone processing is a fixed crop window (the zone) located
relative to the upper left corner of a document. It allows the operator to
select via the host application an area on the document to be delivered
in color, grayscale or black and white format (a separate window for
both black and white and color/grayscale may be defined). Different
zones may be selected for both the front and rear of the image.
This feature may be used in conjunction with auto cropping. Following
is an example of producing a color zone.
1. Prepare documents.
2. Start the scanner to do dual stream simplex scanning (front black
and white and front color).
3. Setup the scanner to retrieve black and white images first.
4. Setup front black and white to be auto cropping.
5. Setup front color to be relative cropping.
6. Enable the scanner and start polling.
