Starting and stopping
scanning

The scanner is controlled by a capture software application. To start
and stop scanning, refer to the documentation provided with your
application software.

Document
preparation

Kodak Scanners have been tested with a range of documents that
represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most
common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is
achieved when scanning documents within the recommended
document specifications listed below. Scanning documents outside of
these specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanner
reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.
Materials:
• Virgin, recycled and photographic papers
• Clear protective sleeves meeting the size and thickness
requirements in this section
Paper Types: Bond, Laser, Inkjet, Offset
Paper Weights: The input elevator handles a broad range of paper
weights from 45 to 200 g/m2 (12 to 110 lb.). The Kodak Feeder Kit for
Ultralightweight Paper can handle paper weights from 25 to 75 g/m2
(7 to 20 lbs).
Minimum Document Size: 6.4 x 6.4 cm (2.5 x 2.5 in.).
Maximum Document Size: 30.5 x 86 cm (12 x 34 in.). Documents
larger than 43 cm (17 in.) may require operator assistance and
installation of optional document extenders.
Paper inks: All inks on the paper must be dry before scanning is
started. This includes: Standard offset printing, Inkjet printer, Thermal
transfer, Handwriting inks.
Correction Fluids: Liquid Paper®, Tipp-Ex®, Wite-out®, and other
similar correction fluids must be dry before scanning is started.

A-61555 March 2007

3-3

Feeder Capacity: The input elevator can hold up to 500 sheets of
75 g/m2 (20 lb.) paper.
Before you begin scanning documents, make certain the documents
can be fed through the scanner easily.
• A stack of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so
the leading edges of all documents are aligned under the feed
module; this allows the feeder to introduce documents into the
scanner one at a time.
• Staples and paper clips on documents may damage the scanner and
documents. Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning.
• Documents with missing corners, perforated edges, hole punches in
the margins, irregular and curled edges, torn, damaged, or crushed
pages can be transported successfully through the scanner. These
documents may require manual feeding.
• When scanning mixed-sized documents, in addition to lead-edge
alignment, you may also want to left- or right-edge align the
documents. This would allow offset feeding, especially when using
the Enhanced Printer.
• If in doubt about whether a specific damaged document can be
transported through the scanner, place the document in a clear
protective sleeve with the lead edge of the document aligned with the
folded edge of the sleeve. Sleeves should be manually fed, one at a
time, folded edge first, while using the gap release button. Ultrasonic
multi-feed detection is not recommended when using plastic sleeves.
NOTE: When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve, the
input elevator side guides must be adjusted to accommodate
the width of the sleeve.

A-61555 March 2007

Adjusting the input
elevator
Adjusting the side guides

1. Place the documents in the input elevator.
2. Adjust the side guides to fit the documents. The side guides should
be far enough apart to accommodate the widest document that you
are feeding.

Selecting your feeding
position

The side guides can be adjusted for right-edge, left-edge or center
feeding. The side guides can be moved together for center feeding or
independently for offset feeding (right-edge or left-edge).
When using the Enhanced Printer, documents should be placed in the
input elevator in a manner that will align the print string in the proper
location. Offset feeding may be required.
If your stack of documents contain mixed sizes and has been left- or
right-edge aligned, adjust the side guides for offset feeding.

Locking the side guides

Side guides may be locked into position after they are adjusted. This
may be helpful when the placement of print strings is important.
If you want to lock the side guides into position, move any documents
which may be in the input tray and move the locking switch into the
locked position.

A-61555 March 2007

Adjusting the height of the
input elevator

The input elevator can be set to accommodate stacks of 25-, 100-, 250or 500-documents of 20 lb. bond paper. Input elevator settings are
made through the TWAIN Data source or ISIS Driver.
NOTE: In this document 25 will be referred to as the highest setting and
500 as the lowest.
Make this setting based on the number of documents you will place in
the input elevator at one time.
When set to 25 (Document Feeder or Normal), the input elevator will
remain in position. When set to 100, 250 or 500, the input elevator will
automatically raise to feed documents and lower after the last
document in your stack has been fed.

Adjusting the input tray for
document length

• No adjustments are required for documents up to 14 inches long.
• If you are scanning documents from 14 to 17 inches in length, open
the input elevator extension.

• Documents longer than 17 inches require a document extender.
Three sizes of document extenders are available for scanning
documents from 43 cm (17 in.) to 86 cm (34 in.). See the section
entitled, “Ordering parts” in Chapter 5 or contact your Kodak Field
Engineer at 1-800-3KODAK3 (1-800-356-3253).

A-61555 March 2007

Feeding documents
using multi-feed
detection

The scanner has three multi-feed detection sensors that can be
independently enabled or disabled. When multi-feed detection is
enabled, adjust the side guides so the documents fully cover at least
one sensor. If the document partially covers a sensor, false multi-feeds
may occur.

Automatic feeding

To scan a stack of documents follow the guidelines for size, type,
quantity, etc., outlined in the “Document preparation” section.
For faster throughput, place documents into the input elevator in
landscape orientation (longer side as the leading edge).
IMPORTANT: Staples and paper clips on documents may damage the
scanner. Remove all staples and paper clips before
scanning.
1. Align the leading edges of the stacked documents.
2. Position the stack of the documents, face up in the input elevator so
the stack covers the paper present sensor.

Depending on how your capture application software is configured,
your documents will automatically start feeding, or you may need to
touch the Scan button on the touchscreen to begin feeding
documents.

A-61555 March 2007

3-15

Continuous feeding

Continuous feeding can be used when you want to continuously scan
small stacks of documents (less than 25) without stopping/starting a
scan session.
When the input elevator is in highest position, continuous feeding of
small stacks of documents can be accomplished by adding them to the
bottom of the stack while scanning.
1. Align the leading edges of the stacked documents.
2. Position the stack of the documents, face up in the input elevator so
the stack covers the paper present sensor.
As the documents are being scanned, you can continuously add
documents to the bottom of the stack. When adding documents, be
sure that the paper present sensor remains covered at all times.

Manual feeding

When the scanner is configured for manual feeding, the input elevator
is raised to the highest position where approximately 25 documents can
be loaded. The input elevator will remain in this position to allow
documents to be fed one at a time.
To manually feed documents:
1. Position the document you want to feed in the input elevator so that
the paper present sensor is covered.

2. Touch Scan on the touchscreen.
NOTE: The Kodak Manual Feeder Accessory is also available provides
a larger surface for manual feeding. See Appendix A,
Accessories for more information.

Calibrating the scanner

The Kodak i1800 Series Scanners allow you to perform an Image
calibration (black-and-white, color, grayscale) and UDDS calibration
(multi-feed detection). Calibration optimizes your scanner to achieve
the best image quality and feeding performance. Your scanner is
properly calibrated when you purchase it, therefore, frequent calibration
is not necessary or recommended. Only calibrate the scanner when
prompted to do so.
Before calibrating the scanner, clean the scanner (see the procedures
outlined in Chapter 5, Maintenance). Failure to clean the scanner
before calibrating may cause image quality issues.

4 The Enhanced Printer and Patch Readers
This chapter provides instructions for using the Enhanced Printer and
Patch Readers. The following information and procedures can be found
in this chapter:
• Overview information about the Enhanced Printer, including
information about print fields and printer specifications.
• Setting horizontal printer positions.
• Replacing the ink cartridge and ink blotter strips.
• Moving the printer carrier and cable from the front position to the rear
position or vice versa.
• Overview information about the Patch Readers and patch types.
NOTE: More detailed information on the Enhanced Printer and Patch
Readers can be found in the Image Processing Guide and
Kodak publication, A-61599, Patch Code Information.

Enhanced Printer
overview

The Kodak i1800 Series Scanners include a factory-installed, preconfigured front or rear printer. The printer operates at full scanner
speed and prints on the front before scanning or rear after scanning.
The printer can add a date, time, image address, and custom
messages.
The printer is unique in that the document print string can be configured
to include both literal (static) information (i.e., information that stays the
same for each document, such as batch name or operator) and
dynamic information (i.e., information that may change for each page
scanned, such as the image address). The capture software application
controls static fields; any information that the software allows you to
enter can be sent to the printer.
All printer controls and functions are accessible through the ISIS Driver
or TWAIN Data source. Printing must be enabled or disabled for each
scan session.
NOTES:
• The scanner is shipped configured for front printing. See the section
entitled, “Moving the printer carrier and cable from the front to the
rear or vice versa” to change to the rear printing position.
• Clean the scanner’s paper path components daily when using the
printer.
• You may only use one printer (either front or rear) at one time. If you
attempt to print on both sides, an error will be displayed.
• The minimum document height for using the printer is 10 cm (4 in.)
with adjustable side guides.
• The ink cartridge must be installed prior to powering on the scanner,
or it could result in errors when printing is attempted.

Patch function
overview

All i1800 Series Scanners provide toggle patch capability. This type of
patch is used to trigger the scanner to switch from the current image
stream (black-and-white) to the alternative image stream (color/
grayscale). Patches used for image address level changes are only
valid when using an i1860 Scanner with image address enabled.

The Patch Readers

The Patch Readers allow you to automatically increment the image
address or initiate a special function. Image addressing must be
enabled in order to use the Patch Readers. Patch sheets are inserted
during document preparation.
For i1860 Scanner only: There are four off-center, permanently
mounted Patch Readers. They can be independently enabled or
disabled by your capture software application.
If more than one Patch Reader is enabled and any one of the enabled
Patch Readers successfully decodes the patch, then the patch will be
read. Also, if the patch bars pass under more than one patch head that
is enabled, there is a higher probability that the patch will be read.
NOTE: Almost all patch reading problems are related to poor quality
patch codes or patch sheets. Using only the best quality printed
patch sheets will ensure the highest possible read rates.
See Kodak publication A-61599, Patch Code Information, for complete
information.

Patch types

Patch Types 1, 4, and 6 — these patch types can be used by the
capture software application to perform post-scan functions. These
patches are not used for image addressing.
IMPORTANT: Do not use these illustrated patches for production —
they are not to spec.

Patch 1

Patch 4

Patch 6

Toggle Patch — the Toggle patch is a Type 4 patch that is used to
trigger the scanner to switch from the current image stream (black-andwhite) to the alternative image stream (color/grayscale).
NOTE: Toggle patch orientation is different depending on whether
image addressing is disabled or enabled.

4-12

A-61555 March 2007

Toggle Patch

Image addressing - enabled

Image addressing - disabled

When image addressing is disabled, the Patch Readers are also
disabled. However a Toggle patch can still be detected.
Patch Types 2, 3 and T — these patch types are used for image
addressing.
The Patch Readers control document level changes by automatically
sensing a predefined patch code and changing the document level
accordingly.
IMPORTANT: Do not use these illustrated patches for production —
they are not to spec.
Patch 2 — assigns a Level 2 to the
current document

Patch 3 — assigns a Level 3 to the
current document

Patch 5/T/Transfer Patch —
assigns a predetermined level to the
next document

The Transfer Patch Definition is also defined by the application. The
Transfer Patch Definition controls the level assigned to the next
document when a Transfer Patch is used. For example, if the Transfer
Patch Definition for the current operation is defined as Level 3 and a
Transfer Patch is used, the next document will be assigned Level 3.
Patch code placement

See Kodak publication A-61599, Patch Code Information, for complete
information about patch placement and specifications.
Patches can be tested using the Patch Test on the touchscreen. See
Chapter 3, “Performing a Patch test” for more information.

5 Maintenance

This chapter provides:
• a cleaning frequency chart
• a list of cleaning tools and materials
• a list of supplies, consumables and accessories
• cleaning procedures for the scanner
• replacement procedures for customer-replaceable parts
IMPORTANT: Scanner components marked with a green tab indicate
operator-accessible parts.
Cleaning your scanner and preventative maintenance on a regular
basis is required to ensure the best possible image quality. The
following is a preventative maintenance procedure that is
recommended to prevent costly interruptions during production
scanning. Following this procedure as recommended should take
approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
Some document types generate more paper dust and debris and may
require more frequent cleaning than recommended.
NOTES:
• Some debris from the rubber tires on the feed module and separation
roller is normal. Tire debris does not always mean that the tires are
worn or damaged. After cleaning, inspect the tires for wear and
replace the separation roller or feed module if necessary.
• When cleaning rollers/tires, allow the rollers/tires to dry completely
before scanning.
• Use only the recommended cleaning supplies.
• Do not use canned/compressed air.

Replacement
procedures

This section provides procedures for replacing the following parts. Use
the list below as a guideline for frequency of replacement.
• Feed module tires and separation roller tires — tire life will vary
depending upon paper types, environment and cleanliness. Nominal
tire life is approximately 500,000 documents; results will vary.
Degradation of feeder performance, multiple feeds, stoppages, etc.
indicate a need to change tires. Change all the tires on the feed
module and separation roller at the same time.
• Feed module and separation roller — it is recommended that you
install a new feed module and separation roller approximately every
4th tire change. Install a new feed module and separation roller at the
same time.
• Pre-separation pad — it is recommended that you change the preseparation pad at least as often as you change the feed module/
separation roller tires.
• Imaging guides — replace when the imaging guides are heavily
scratched and defects show in the image.
