Chapter 1 Scanner Overview

1.1 Main Features
This section explains about the main features of this product.
The scanner is equipped with the following features:
High speed scanning
Realizes a scanning speed of 60 ppm/120 ipm (fi-7160/fi-7260) (*1), or
80 ppm/160 ipm (fi-7180/fi-7280) (*1). Furthermore, you can load up to
80 sheets of documents for continuous scanning which allows you to
quickly digitize a large volume of documents.

LCD
The scanner mounts the LCD that displays the operational settings for
scanning documents, the number of sheets scanned, and error status. It
is used to easily check the status of the scanner.

Improved efficiency for pre-scan work
The scanner can perform "batch scanning" which allows you to scan
documents with different paper weights and sizes at once, simplifying
the process of sorting the documents before scanning.

Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds
The scanner mounts an ultrasonic multifeed sensor that accurately
detects "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets are fed through the
scanner at once. This multifeed detection is reliable even when
scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights and
sizes, avoiding potential work loss.

Intelligent Multifeed function
When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location
on the page, the Intelligent Multifeed function enables the scanner to
recognize the location of the attachment. This allows you to continue
scanning instead of pausing the scan by detecting every paper
attachment as multifeed. Furthermore, the "paper protection" function
will reduce the risk of damaging your valuable documents.

Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise
This function reduces the risk of having the documents damaged by
stopping the scan when the scanner detects paper jam noise.

Introduction
Advanced image processing function
The scanner's automatic detection function outputs images in color or
monochrome by the document content.

Scanner
Overview

Imprinter option
Imprinter is available as an option, which is often demanded for
managing/verifying documents. Having the capability to print on the
scanned documents could drastically improve usability.
The imprinter can be installed on fi-7160/fi-7180.

Scanning on black background
Black document pad is available as an option, which allows you to
perform scanning on black background when using the flatbed. It can be
used to automatically correct skewed images or accurately detect the
size of the scanned document.
The black document pad can be used on fi-7260/fi-7280.

Capable of scanning photographs, clippings, and
documents larger than A4/Letter size
The Carrier Sheet, which is available as an option, allows you to scan
documents that are larger than A4/Letter size, as well as non-standard
size documents such as photographs and clippings. You can load
multiple Carrier Sheets or mix it with regular documents in the same
batch.

Centralized management of multiple scanners
The bundled "Scanner Central Admin Agent" application allows you to
manage multiple scanners together. For example, you can update the
scanner settings and drivers, as well as monitor the operating status of
each scanner.
*1: When scanning A4 size documents at 200/300 dpi with JPEG
compression.

Area Not to be Perforated

Conditions for Multifeed Detection

An error may occur when there are punched holes in the area
shaded in light blue in the following figure. Such documents
can be scanned by using the flatbed (fi-7260/fi-7280).

Multifeed is an error where two or more sheets are fed through
the ADF at once. It is also called a multifeed when a different
document length is detected.
Multifeed detection is performed by either checking the
overlapping of documents, length of the documents, or the
combination of both. The following conditions are required for
an accurate detection.

Conditions for Mixed Batch Scanning
The following conditions apply when scanning a mixed batch
of documents with different paper weights/friction coefficients/
sizes.
Make sure to test a few sheets first to check if the documents
can be scanned.
For details, refer to "Documents with Different Widths" (page
87).
Paper direction
Align the direction of the paper fiber with the feed direction.

Paper weight
The following paper weights can be used:
27 to 413 g/m2 (7.2 to 110 lb)

Friction coefficient
It is recommended to use the same type of paper from the same
manufacturer.
When papers of different manufacturers/brands are mixed, it affects the
feeding performance as the difference in the friction coefficient
increases.
The following friction coefficients are recommended:
0.35 to 0.60 (reference value for paper friction coefficient)

Document position
Use paper sizes that fit the 39 mm width of the pick roller in the center.

Pick roller

Paper size
When you scan a mixed batch with different sizes, not feeding the
documents straight may cause troubles such as paper jams or part of
the image to appear missing.
It is recommended to check the documents thoroughly before scanning
and also check the image if the document was skewed.
ATTENTION
z When scanning a mixed batch with different sizes, documents are
more likely to skew because the side guides do not contact every
sheet.
z Do not use [Check Length] or [Check Overlapping and Length] for
multifeed detection.

3.1 Setup Dialog Box for PaperStream IP Driver
The PaperStream IP driver is a scanner driver that conforms
to the TWAIN/ISIS standard.
There are three types of PaperStream IP drivers.
z PaperStream IP (TWAIN) driver
Conforms to the TWAIN standard. Used when you operate the
scanner using TWAIN-compliant 32-bit applications.
z PaperStream IP (TWAIN x64) driver
Conforms to the TWAIN standard. Used when you operate the
scanner using TWAIN-compliant 64-bit applications.
z PaperStream IP (ISIS) driver
Conforms to the ISIS standard. Used when you operate the scanner
using ISIS-compliant applications.

These drivers can be used with an image scanning application
that supports TWAIN or ISIS to perform scanning.
Normally, the scanner driver is launched via an image
scanning application, and then the scan settings are
configured in the setup dialog box of the driver.
For some image scanning applications, the scanner driver's
setup dialog box may not appear.

There are two display formats for the scanner driver's setup
dialog box (main dialog box) for the PaperStream IP driver.

13: Paper
Protection

Select a paper protection detection method.
This function can be set to reduce the risk of having
the documents damaged by detecting anomalies
upon feeding the documents and stopping the scan
when:
z The scanner detects a document that is
unusually warped when a feeding error occurs.
z The scanner detects paper jam noise
z The scanner either detects a document that is
usually warped when a feeding error occurs or
detects paper jam noise
Specify the sensitivity level to detect anomalies
upon feeding the documents when paper protection
is used.
Documents are deformed (e.g. warped, bent,
creased) or paper jam noise is made when
documents are not being fed by the rollers properly.
To detect such symptoms and stop the scan, select
[1: Low] to only detect documents that are highly
deformed or loud paper jam noise. To detect
documents that are slightly deformed or small paper
jam noise, select [3: High].
You can also configure the paper protection
detection method from the scanner driver or the
Software Operation Panel. When the operation
panel setting is prioritized, the operator panel
setting is prioritized over the Software Operation
Panel setting. Note that even if the operation panel
setting is prioritized, the scanner driver setting has
the highest priority.
You can also configure the sensitivity level to detect
warped documents and paper jam noise from the

5.3 Advanced Scanning

Introduction

Feeding Documents Manually in the ADF
Documents can also be loaded manually one sheet at a time
in the ADF.
Normally, in automatic feeding, the scanner stops scanning
once all the documents loaded in the ADF paper chute
(feeder) have been scanned. In manual feeding, the scanner
waits for the next document to be loaded within a specified
time. Scanning will continue as long as another document is
loaded within the set time, and stops if no document is loaded.
By using this method, you can perform scanning as you check
the documents one by one.
Manual feeding is effective in the following cases.
z To scan as you check the contents of each sheet.
z To scan documents that cause multifeed or paper jam when loaded
together in the same batch.
z To continue scanning documents such as magazine/newspaper
clippings that cannot be loaded together.

1

Enable manual feeding.
To do this, perform one of the following:
z Enable manual feeding by selecting a value for [12: Manual Feed
Timeout] in the [Settings Menu] screen of the operator panel.
For details, refer to "4.2 Settings Menu" (page 66).
z Enable manual feeding in the Software Operation Panel.
For details, refer to "Waiting Time in Manual Feed Mode [Manualfeed timeout]" (page 201).

2

Load a document in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

3

Scan the document with the image scanning application.

For details, refer to "Chapter 2 How to Load Documents" (page 41).
For details, refer to the image scanning application manual.

After the document is scanned, the rollers inside the ADF keep
rotating, waiting for the next document to be loaded for the time
specified in the operator panel or Software Operation Panel.

4

Load the next document in the ADF paper chute (feeder).

5

Repeat step 4 until all documents are scanned.

The document is scanned.

Scanning will stop if no document is loaded within the set time.
HINT
z Pressing the [Stop/Clear] button on the operator panel will stop
the scan immediately.
z When [Manual-feed timeout] is enabled, the scanner will wait for
the set time even if you start scanning with no document in the
ADF paper chute (feeder).
z When you use manual feeding frequently, replacement cycle of
the consumables may be shortened.

Chapter 5 Various Ways to Scan

Ignoring Multifeed for a Set Pattern
If you attempt to scan a document with an attachment such as
sticky note, receipt, or photo while multifeed detection is
enabled, the scanner may falsely recognize this as a multifeed
error and stop the scan. To scan these types of documents,
the "Intelligent Multifeed Function" is available.
There are two modes in this function. In one mode, you can
suppress multifeeds forcibly by using the operator panel on
the scanner. In the other mode, you can suppress multifeeds
automatically by letting the scanner memorize the location and
the length of the attachment.

7.1 Consumables and Replacement Cycles
The following table shows the consumables used for the
scanner.

BRAKE ROLLER

PICK ROLLER

Part No.
PA036700001

PA036700002

Suggested replacement cycle
200,000 sheets or one year

200,000 sheets or one year

Consumables need to be replaced periodically. It is
recommended that you keep a stock of new consumables and
replace them before it reaches the end of the consumable life.
The scanner records the number of sheets scanned after
replacing the consumables (brake roller/pick roller), which
allows you to check the status on each consumable.
For details, refer to "9.4 Settings Related to Sheet Counters"
(page 178).
Note that the suggested replacement cycles are guidelines for
using A4 (80 g/m2 [20 lb]) wood-free or wood-containing
paper, as these cycles vary depending on the type of
documents scanned and how often the scanner is used and
cleaned.
Only use the specified consumables.
To purchase the consumables, contact your FUJITSU scanner
dealer or an authorized FUJITSU scanner service provider.
