USB

The status light comes on and flashes indicating that the scanner is
receiving power.
If you are using Windows XP or Windows Vista, and have plugged the
USB cable into a USB 1.1 port, an information bubble may open
explaining that “A HI-SPEED USB device is plugged into a non-HISPEED USB hub”. Plug the USB cable into a USB 2.0 port (if
available) or just disregard the message. If you leave it plugged into
the USB 1.1 port, your scanner may scan a bit slower than the 25
pages per minute, and 50 images per minute available with a USB 2.0
port.
Your computer then recognizes that a scanner has been plugged into
the USB port and automatically loads the appropriate software to run
the scanner.
If your computer is running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you will
see a message similar to the following.

Scanning
If you selected the recommended Full Install option for your scanner’s
driver (see page 10), then you have several different scanning options
with your Xerox DocuMate 162 scanner. Each method scans equally well,
so use the one with appropriate options for the item you are scanning.

18

•

One Touch Scanner Buttons—When you press either the Simplex
or Duplex button, documents are scanned using the scan settings
indicated by the LED number. The scanned images are then sent to a
software application on your computer. See “Scan from the
One Touch Scanner Buttons” on page 21.

•

One Touch Button Panel—Use this option to scan from the
computer screen. Scanning from on-screen One Touch Button Panel
is the same as pressing a scanner button, except you click an icon
that represents the scanner button. See “Scan from the One Touch
Button Panel” on page 22.

•

TWAIN Interface—The TWAIN interface is for scanning from various
programs on your computer. The TWAIN interface can be access
from the PaperPort software, as well as from other programs such as
Microsoft Word. See “Scanning from the TWAIN Interface” on
page 61.

•

Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Interface—If your computer is
running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you can use this option to
scan with the Microsoft WIA interface. See “Scanning with the WIA
Interface” on page 65.

•

ISIS Interface—This option uses the ISIS interface for scanning. The
ISIS interface for each application varies depending on the
application. See “Scanning with the ISIS Interface” on page 68.

Loading Documents to Scan
When you press either the Simplex or Duplex button, documents are
scanned using the scan settings indicated by the LED number. The
scanned images are then sent to a software application on your
computer.

NOTE: Always remove any staples or paper clips from documents
before inserting them into the scanner’s Automatic Document Feeder.
Staples and paper clips can jam the feed mechanism and scratch the
internal components. Also remove any labels, stickers, or Post-It™
notes that may come off during the scanning process and get stuck in
the scanner. Misuse as described here will void your scanner’s
warranty.
1. Adjust the paper guide for the width of paper, and make sure the input
and output trays are fully extended.

2. Load the documents face down with the top of the pages inserted into
the Automatic Document Feeder.

Scanning from One Touch
One Touch is your main scanning interface for using the scanner. The
One Touch functions on the scanner mirror the One Touch Button Panel
on screen.
Press the Function button
to cycle through the 9
One Touch scanning
options.

Click these arrows to
cycle through the 9
One Touch scanning
options.

The Default One Touch Settings
Based on the recommended installation of PaperPort and the scanner
driver, your scanner is pre-configured to scan items for various basic
tasks, such as email or fax, then send the scanned image to a Destination
Application. The button names, such as PDF, eMail or Fax, indicate the
original factory settings for the Destination Application assigned to a
button.
You can change any of these settings. Please see “Configuring the One
Touch Buttons” on page 24 for instructions.
For example, the eMail button is set up to scan documents then
immediately attach them to a new eMail message in your default eMail
program. The email application will default to the email program specified
in the internet options of Internet Explorer.
A folder icon for a button means that the button is set up to archive the
scanned item. The scanner sends the scanned image directly to a folder
without opening the image first in a Destination Application.
A question mark for a button means your computer does not have the
appropriate software or hardware for the initial factory settings. In that
case, you would probably want to change the name and Destination
Application to something else.
If PaperPort, OmniPage or One Touch OmniPage is not installed, then the
options for sending to word processing applications such as Microsoft
Word will not be available.
NOTE: The default page size in each configuration is based on your
computer’s Windows setup of United States or Metric Units.

20

•

If United States is the selected measurement, the default page size
in each profile will be based on the United States standard page
sizes such as 8.5” x 11”.

•

If Metric is the selected measurement, the default page size in each
profile is based on the ISO 216 standard and the majority of the
profiles will default to A4.

correct scan configurations, do not delete the pre-set configurations.
We also recommend that you keep those configurations locked so they
are not inadvertently deleted. That way, you will always have the
factory-settings available. If you do delete or edit them, and want to get
the factory pre-sets back again, you will need to uninstall then re-install

available for the type of Destination Application selected for the button.
The available options are for images and text.

Image Formats

Text Formats; sPDF is only one of
several text formats available.

Create Single Image Files
The TIFF and PDF formats, as well as the text document formats, support
multiple page documents. Select Create single image files if you want
one file created for each image scanned. Note that this option is
automatically selected and disabled if you have selected a format that
only supports single pages, such as BMP or JPG.

Image Formats
Select an image file format for photos, artwork or other documents that
you want to save as images. BMP and TIFF are standard image file
formats generally used if you want to do additional image processing,
such as photo touch-up or color correction. Both of those file formats tend
to be larger than the JPEG format.
The JPEG format is often used for images on web pages, or if file size
might be a problem when electronically sending the files. JPEG files are
reduced in size by lowering their image quality, and you can select the
degree of quality for your scanned images from the JPEG file format icon.
The PDF format is often used to create images of text pages. The PDF
format is also used to put multi-page documents on web sites as pdfreadable files. As with the JPEG option, the PDF format can be reduced
in size or quality.

Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) converts text and numbers on a
scanned page into editable text and numbers. You can then work with the
text and numbers to edit, spell check, change font or type size, sort,
calculate, and so forth.
NOTE: Xerox recommends that all OCR processing use the original
factory settings for OCR scanning that came with your scanner. When
scanning with other settings, use at least 200 dpi for the resolution. If
the original documents are of poor quality or have a small type font,
300 dpi can be used as the maximum resolution.
The One Touch OmniPage Module or the OmniPage Pro software must
be installed on your computer in order to use the OCR options with the
One Touch 4.0 software and your DocuMate 162 scanner. The
One Touch OmniPage Module was automatically installed when you

are:
•

Mode—Select a scanning mode:
Black&White to scan in black and white. Use this setting for letters,
memos, and other black and white material.
Grayscale to scan items such as documents containing drawings or
black and white photographs. You can also scan a color document to
turn its colors into gray shades.
Color to scan magazine articles, photographs, and other color
images in full color.

•

Resolution—This option determines the amount of detail you can
see in the scanned image. The higher the dpi setting, the sharper and
clearer the scanned image. However, higher dpi settings take longer
to scan and produce larger files for the scanned images.

•

Brightness—Sometimes an image is scanned with the brightness
and contrast set too light or too dark. For example, a note written with
a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility.
Increasing or decreasing the brightness makes the scanned image
lighter or darker.

•

Contrast—The difference between the lighter and darker portions of
the image. Increasing the contrast emphasizes the difference
between the lighter and darker portions, decreasing the contrast deemphasizes that difference.

•

AutoCrop to Original—Select this option to let the scanner
automatically determine the size of the item being scanned.
When using the AutoCrop to Original option, always use the paper
guides on the scanner so the page is not skewed.

•

62

Duplex—Scan both sides of the page. If this option is not selected,
the scanner will only scan the side of the page facing down.

watermark over black text.

The scanned item with the
red filtered out.

•

Reduce Moire Patterns—Moire patterns are wavy, rippled lines that
sometimes appear on the scanned images of photographs or
illustrations, particularly newspaper and magazine illustrations.
Selecting Reduce Moire Patterns will limit or eliminate moire
patterns in the scanned image. This option is only available for the
Grayscale or Color Mode low resolutions.

Maintenance

Maintenance
This section contains information about maintenance, troubleshooting,
uninstalling, scanner specifications, and spare parts.

Clearing Paper Jams
If your scanner stops scanning due to a paper jam in the Automatic
Document Feeder, a warning opens after a few moments.
1. Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
2. Remove the jammed paper and close the cover.

To reduce the number of paper jams, smooth and straighten the paper
before scanning, adjust the guides to the paper size, and insert the paper
evenly into the ADF

Cleaning the Automatic Document Feeder
You may need to clean the ADF feed mechanism if your documents do
not feed easily into the ADF, or several feed in at the same time.
1. Wet a soft cloth with some Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (95%).
2. Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
3. Wipe the feed roller from side to side. Rotate the roller to clean its
entire surface.
4. Wipe the ADF pad from top to bottom. Be careful not to snag the cloth
on the springs on either side of the pad.
5. Close the cover when you’re finished.
NOTE: Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is
designed to rotate in one direction only. As you’re cleaning the roller,
make sure it rotates easily, and continue rotating it in that direction
while wiping it clean. Do NOT force the roller to rotate in the opposite
direction. Forcing the roller to rotate will damage the scanner, and may
cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.

Maintenance

Replacing the ADF Pad Assembly
The ADF pad will wear out and is designed to be a user-replaceable part.
Problems with documents feeding into the ADF is an indication that the
pad is wearing thin.
You received a replacement pad in the original scanner box, and you can
also order a new one. See the “Xerox DocuMate 162 Scanner Parts List”
on page 78 for ordering information.

To replace the ADF Pad assembly:
1. Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
2. The ADF pad is located behind the scanner buttons.

3. Squeeze the plastic clamps that hold the pad assembly in place and
lift it up and out. Reverse the procedure to replace the pad.

4. Close the cover when you’re finished.

Maintenance

Replacing the Roller Assembly
After extended use, the roller may wear out and may need to be replaced.
It is a user-replaceable part and can be ordered. See “Xerox DocuMate
162 Scanner Parts List” on page 78 for the part number.
Frequent paper jams are a symptom of a worn roller assembly. A worn
roller can cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple
pages to feed at the same time. A worn roller should be replaced to avoid
damage to the scanner’s internal parts. However, before replacing the
roller you should clean it first as excessive dust on the roller will make it
appear worn and smooth to the touch. You cannot properly diagnose a
worn roller until you have cleaned it.

To replace the roller assembly:
1. Open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
2. Take out the paper input tray.

The roller is located in
the body of the scanner
behind the input tray.

3. The roller is held in place with a lock tab that rotates to lock and
unlock it. To unlock the tab, rotate it upward until the small lock flange
is completely free.

Maintenance
4. Gently press the roller to the right to free its left side. Then angle the
roller to the front of the scanner until it is clear of the housing, and
bring it out and away from the scanner body.

5. Discard the worn roller. It cannot be repaired.
6. Before installing the new roller, clean any dust that may have gotten
on it during shipping.
7. Insert the right end of the roller into its housing socket. Make sure the
lock tab is facing up and the lock flange is not obstructed. If the gears
on the end of the roller do not engage easily, slightly rotate the roller
while gently pressing it into the housing until you feel them engage.
Do not force the gears to engage.

8. When you are certain that the gears are engaged, swing the roller into
it scanner and align the left side with its mount. Then gently slide the
roller to the left to fit its left end into its mount. Make sure the left end
of the roller is firmly seated into its mount.

72

Maintenance
9. Rotate the lock tab down so the locking flange catches on its latch. Do
not force the lock tab into place. If it does not rotate freely to lock into
place, make sure the flange is properly seating on its latch.

10. Close the cover when you’re finished.

Troubleshooting
In addition to the troubleshooting information contained in this section,
please see the Readme file on your installation CD. Also visit our web site
at www.xeroxscanners.com for additional technical information.

Problem: The scanner won’t scan. What’s wrong?
Check for one of these possible problems:
•

Are the cables loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect the
cable connections. Make sure the cables are plugged in securely.

•

Is the scanner’s status light on? Turn on the scanner’s power. If the
status light doesn’t come on, plug the power supply into another
electrical outlet.

•

Did you restart the computer after installing the software? If you
didn’t restart the computer, it may not have loaded all of the software
files. Try restarting your computer.

•

Did you plug the scanner into a USB hub? If you’re using a USB
hub to connect the scanner, the hub must have its own power supply.
If the hub does not have its own power supply, plug the scanner into a
USB port on the computer.

•

Did you select another TWAIN source for acquiring images? If
you use multiple TWAIN devices with your computer, you may have
selected another source for images. Make sure Xerox DocuMate
162 is selected as the scanner.

Problem: With AutoCrop to Original selected, sometimes
I get blank pages, or pages with lines.
The pages were probably scanned in crooked, or skewed. To use
AutoCrop to Original, the pages must be scanned in straight. Adjust the
paper guides on the scanner so pages feed in straight.

DocuMate 162 Scanner User’s Guide

73

Maintenance

Problem: I got the error message: PaperPort cannot
allocate enough memory to perform internal critical
operations.
Close any other active applications so that additional memory is available.
If you click Continue, PaperPort moves the file to the PaperPort data
directory and renames the file with the prefix “bad”. This allows you to
recover the file later.
To recover the file, you can import it into PaperPort by using the Import
command in the File menu.

Problem: The installation will not complete successfully.
If installation finishes, the scanner’s One Touch 4.0
options do not seem to work properly.
A driver for another scanner may be installed on your computer and it is
interfering with the installation of your Xerox DocuMate 162 scanner. You
may need to remove those other drivers and re-install your Xerox
DocuMate 162 scanner. Please see the documentation that you received
with the other scanner for the steps to remove its driver programs.

Problem: The ADF won’t feed pages properly.
A dirty or worn ADF pad assembly or dirt on the roller can cause
documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple pages to feed at the
same time. Try cleaning the roller first. See “Maintenance” on page 69.

Problem: If the USB cable is disconnected during a scan,
the scanner does not reconnect when the USB cable is
plugged back in.
Unplug the power cable from the scanner, and then plug it back in.
If the scanner does not reconnect:
1. Unplug the power cable from the scanner.
2. Restart your computer.
3. After the restart is complete, plug the power cable back in.
