The Scanning Process
Under the control of the instructions in the scan template, the Xerox
DC220/230/332/340ST can scan hard copy documents and create
electronic Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) / Portable Document
File Format (PDF) files.
NOTE
The DC 332/340ST supports both PDF and TIFF File Formats.
The PDF image format is a TIFF image enclosed within a PDF
wrapper. The DC220/230ST supports only the TIFF image format.
Using the filing information that is contained in the template, the
TIFF/PDF file or files are transferred to a document repository on
the file server. The document repository is simply a directory on the
file server.
All pages of a multi-page document are scanned prior to the job
being sent to the document repository.
Scanning Process
After the scanned document files are sent to the file server, the user
can retrieve the files from a network workstation.
The three main steps involved in scanning a job are:
1. Scan a hard copy document at the DC220/230/332/340ST.
