Manuel d'utilisation du scanner Kodak i2600

Introduction

The Kodak i2600 Scanner is designed to streamline document management by efficiently converting paper documents into digital information. This manual provides comprehensive instructions for setting up, operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting your scanner to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Installation

Follow these steps to set up your Kodak i2600 Scanner:

Déballage et placement

Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all accessories are present. The scanner features a unique "stow and go" design, allowing it to be stored upright to save space or tilted back for scanning. Place the scanner on a stable, flat surface, ensuring adequate space for document feeding and output.

Connectivité et puissance

Connect the scanner to your computer using the provided USB 2.0 cable. Then, connect the power adapter to the scanner and plug it into a suitable electrical outlet.

Installation du logiciel

Install the bundled software from the included CD, which typically includes TWAIN, ISIS, WIA Drivers, Kodak Capture Desktop Software, Smart Touch, Nuance PaperPort, and OmniPage. For optimal compatibility and performance, it is highly recommended to visit the official Kodak website (www.kodak.com/go/Diwarranty) to download and install the latest drivers and Smart Touch software updates.

Mode d'emploi

The Kodak i2600 Scanner offers efficient document scanning with various features to enhance productivity.

Chargement de documents

The automatic document feeder (ADF) can hold up to 75 sheets of 75 g/m² (20 lb.) paper. It handles various document types, including ID cards, embossed cards, and insurance cards. For optimal performance and to prevent paper jams, ensure documents are free of staples, paper clips, and tears. Fan the paper stack before loading it into the input tray.

Using SmartTouch

The SmartTouch feature allows you to map application functions to shortcut buttons, enabling one-button scanning to various destinations. This significantly simplifies common scanning tasks.

To configure SmartTouch:

• Launch the SmartTouch software from your computer.
• Select a desired shortcut button on the software interface.
• Configure the scan settings, such as resolution, color mode (black-and-white, grayscale, or color), and output destination (e.g., Microsoft SharePoint, local file storage, email, printers, or other desktop applications).
• Soutenu file formats include single and multi-page TIFF, JPEG, RTF, BMP, PDF, and searchable PDF.

Performances de numérisation

The scanner achieves throughput speeds of up to 50 pages per minute (ppm) / 100 images per minute (ipm) for black-and-white/grayscale documents at 200 dpi and 300 dpi. For color scanning, speeds are up to 50 ppm/100 ipm at 200 dpi and 40 ppm/80 ipm at 300 dpi. Note that actual speeds may vary based on driver, application software, operating system, and PC configuration.

For searchable PDF output, processing time will be longer due to optical character recognition (OCR) being performed. For faster processing, select standard PDF output if OCR is not immediately required.

Entretien

Regular maintenance ensures consistent performance and extends the operational life of your Kodak i2600 Scanner.

Nettoyage

It is important to clean the scanner periodically to prevent dust accumulation and maintain optimal image quality. Pay particular attention to the glass window of the camera and the rubber wheels.

Produits de nettoyage recommandés :

• Staticide Wipes
• Tampons de nettoyage des rouleaux
• Transport Cleaning Sheets (These are crucial for cleaning the internal red rubber wheels that cannot be accessed manually.)

Consumables Replacement

Certain moving parts are designed to be replaced when they wear out to ensure continued reliable operation. These include the Feed Module, Separation Module, and Feed Rollers. The nominal life of the Feed Rollers is approximately 125,000 sheets. These supplies can be purchased from authorized Kodak resellers or the Kodak website.

Dépannage

Cette section aborde les problèmes courants que vous pourriez rencontrer avec votre scanner.

Bourrages papier

Paper jams are rare but can occur due to poor paper quality, torn sheets, or excessive dust accumulation on the rollers.

To prevent jams:

• Ensure paper is free of tears, folds, and foreign objects like staples or paper clips.
• Clean the scanner's rubber wheels regularly as part of routine maintenance.
• For unusually bad or difficult paper, consider loading smaller stacks (e.g., 15 sheets instead of the full 75-sheet capacity) to improve feeding reliability.

En cas de blocage :

• The scanner will typically stop and report a "paper jam" error.
• The scanner is designed for easy access; open the scanner cover and carefully remove the jammed paper. Due to the straight paper trajectory, jammed paper is rarely damaged or wrinkled.
• If scanning a multi-page document, note the last successfully scanned page. You can process the scanned portion into a PDF and then resume scanning the remainder of the document from where you stopped, merging the PDF files later if needed.

Problèmes de logiciel

If you experience software crashes, unexpected behavior, or unusually slow processing of scanned documents:

• Ensure you have the latest drivers and Smart Touch software installed from the official Kodak website. Software updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements.
• For slow processing of scanned documents, check if "Searchable PDF" is enabled in your SmartTouch settings. While useful for OCR, this feature adds significant processing time. Disabling it and selecting standard "PDF" output can drastically speed up document processing if OCR is not immediately required.
