■ Loading Documents Using the Carrier Sheet
The Carrier Sheet is a plastic sheet for loading the document specifically for the ScanSnap S510/
S500/fi-5110EOX2 Series. It allows you to scan documents that cannot be scanned as it is. The
document of larger than A4 size, such as A3 and B4 sizes, can be scanned by folding it in half.
Insert the folded document into the Carrier Sheet and scan it in duplex mode.
You can scan documents that can easily get scratched such as photographs or irregular-shaped
documents difficult to load on the ScanSnap; for example, clippings of magazine and newspaper
articles.
The following explains how to insert the document into the Carrier Sheet.
You can use the Carrier Sheet in two different modes according to the type of documents.
Create facing pages in one
image(page 53)
Use this mode for scanning a document larger than
A4 size such as A3 and B4 sizes.
Fold the document in half, scan it in duplex scanning
mode, and then merge both front and back side
images to make a double-page spread image.
Create front and back images
separately (page 58)
Use this mode for scanning a photograph when you
do not want to get scratches on the photograph, or
for scanning an irregular-shaped document such as
the clipping of articles, which is difficult to scan as
is. The scanned image is output in specified size.
ATTENTION
• To use the Carrier Sheet, select [Automatic Detection] in the Paper size drop-
down list on the [Paper size] tab of the ScanSnap Manager -Scan and Save
Settings" dialog box. When you scan the document in "Create facing pages in
one image" mode, set the Scanning side to "Duplex Scan" on the [Scanning]
tab of the ScanSnap Manager -Scan and Save Settings" dialog box. If you set
the Scanning side to "Simplex Scan," the produced image is the same as the
one produced in "Create front and back images separately" and "Simplex
Scan" mode.
For details on how to change the "Carrier Sheet" Settings, refer to section
"4.5 Changing Carrier Sheet Settings" (page 106).
• When the Carrier Sheet is used for scanning, continuous scanning is not
possible. Scan one piece or one page at one time.
