3.17 Scanning Using Barcodes
ScandAll PRO supports a job separation function with barcode-printed sheets (hereinafter reffered to as the "barcode"). The
barcode-based job separation function can divide multiple pages of scanned images into pre-determined unit and save them to
different folders separetely without interruption. A PDF or TIFF (multipage) file can be separated and stored as multiple files in
pre-determined document unit. Not only the document counter, but the barcode recognition result strings can be used for the
folder names.
ScandAll PRO is capable of detecting the following types of barcodes:
Code
Character set
Digit number
UPC/EAN/JAN
Numbers
UPC:12
(UPC-A only; includes check digit)
EAN, JAN: 8 or 13 (includes check digit)
CODE39
Numbers/Alphabets/7 symbols
1 to 32
(excludes start/stop codes)
CODABAR
4 start/stop character numbers,
10 alphabets and symbols
1 to 32
(excludes start/stop codes)
CODE128
Full ASCII
1 to 32 (excludes check characters)
The following lists the barcode detection conditions:

Barcode height
10 mm to 30 mm
Barcode length

white color of the paper scanned.)
Resolution
200 dpi to 600 dpi
Barcode angle
Horizontal, and vertical
ATTENTION
●
Scanning documents having barcode types not defined for this function could
separate the image data wrongly. This may even delete some of the scanned images
depending on how the scan settings are made. Check the document carefully in
advance to see if it has extra barcodes outside the barcode-scanning area. It is
recommended that you reduce the number of barcode types to sense and narrow
the barcode area to detect.
●
Using the same patch code sheets repeatedly may decrease the recognition
accuracy due to the dirt contaminated on the document. If the patch code sheets
are not recognized correctly or get smudged, make new prints of the patch code
sheets.
●
Any control characters and any unusable characters such as \/,;:*?"<>| in a file
name are replaced with "_" (underbar).
●
The barcode may not be recognized correctly depending on the document (skewed),
driver setting and/or printed conditions of barcodes. Operate after ensuring the
barcode is correctly recognized.
