Intelligent printing

Some 

Kodak

 Scanners support intelligent printing which allows the 

scanner to digitally or physically print unique numbers on each 
document that is batch scanned. For example, if you are feeding 
batches of documents where each document is a group of pages that 
needs to have a unique Document Locator number physically printed 
on the page, Intelligent Printing allows you to do this. There are three 
options available with Intelligent Printing.

1.

Patch counting:

 the 

Kodak

 i5x50, i5x50S, and i5x50V Scanners 

have options that when you are printing the scanner counter on your 
images/pages, you can have the counter incremented for every 
page scanned or only when a page with a patch pattern is scanned. 
You can also select a patch type as a document separator sheet 
and reset the counter by using a different patch page. The 
limitations when using the patch Counting option are that the 
printing is also printed on the pages with the patch pattern and the 
patch pages you use must be printed with the patch bars in the 
vertical orientation. There is no metadata included in the patch 
images to indicate that it was read as a patch page. 

IMPORTANT: Some combinations of patch usage and intelligent 

printing, or indexing and intelligent printing, are complex 
to set up correctly. It is possible to set up printing so it 
looks correct — but image header information will not 
match the print string information if other setup is not 
correct. You risk unexpected results, if you use the 
following combinations. 

• Patch Counting with Indexing is challenging to set up. If you 

are having problems with synchronization of counters 
between the printed page values and the host software 
counter values, you may have inadvertently configured your 
scanner for Patch Counting and Indexing. 

• If you intend to use indexing, your TWAIN print format string 

should probably NOT contain the value Counter. 

• If you intend to use patch counting, your TWAIN print format 

string should probably NOT contain the values: 
“Indexing: Document”
”Indexing: Sheet” 
“Image Address:Fixed” 
“Image Address:Level 3”
”Image Address:Level 2
“Image Address:Level 1”
