Mixed Media and Batch Scanning

In a perfect world, all original documents are
the same size, of the same type, and require
the same imaging settings.

Manufacturers advertise their maximum scanning speed
based upon this perfect scenario. BERTL looks beyond
the perfect world, providing valuable real world informa-
tion.

Take the example of a paralegal scanning a case file. The
file could well contain both letter and legal sized docu-
ments, requiring a mixed media capability. This feature
can drop the scan productivity on some devices by as
much as 80 percent as the extra step of manually check-
ing each page for size becomes part of the process.

The case file also includes both plain text pages and acci-
dent scene photographs. The text pages are best cap-
tured using Text or Text/Photo mode. However, the acci-
dent scene photograph is best scanned using the Photo
mode, which captures the halftone detail to a much better
degree. Most devices do not allow users to switch be-
tween different modes in mid scan session.

The photograph also poses another problem in that the
paralegal does not want to run the risk of damaging the
photograph by feeding it through the document feeder.
The paralegal would prefer instead to use the glass platen
scanner. This again is not possible on some units, which
limit batch/job build scanning to either all document feeder
or all glass platen scanning.

Batch/Job Build Scanning Observations

Batch/job build scanning is accessed by first selecting the
wizard hard key to the left of the screen. Users can then
build jobs from the platen and document feeder changing
settings before each scan session. To enter a new scan
section, the user selects ‘add’ and the pages scan accord-
ingly. To release the job, the user hits the green button.
The batch scan function does not allow users to mix sim-
plex and duplex scanning, a feature that some devices do
offer, forcing users instead to scan all documents in Du-
plex mode (if double sided originals are present) and then
having to remove all the blank pages using another utility.

Mixed size mode proved to be less efficient on the Ricoh
Aficio MP1350 than what BERTL analysts have seen on
some other Ricoh units with a 57 percent reduction in
scanning throughput speed.
