Modifying scanner templates (Settings)

Docubase client allows users to save the scanner settings in predefined “templates.”

scannertemplates

From this screen, the templates can be modified as needed by Docubase Administrators.

New => Make a new template.
Modify => Make changes to the current selected template.
Delete => Erase the selected template.

The next screen to display depends on the model of scanner being used, but there will be common settings regardless the model. The screen shown is using a Fujitsu 4120C2.

Primarily, the items to look for on this screen will be:
MODE => Black and White, Color, Grayscale…
Dots per Inch (DPI) => 200 is sufficient for most applications
Page or Page size => Letter, Legal, postcard…

Clicking OK will display the Docubase settings for this template. This screen will display the same regardless the model of scanner being used.

Starting from the Top/Left:
Paper Source => This should have feeder selected unless the scanner does not have a feeder.
High Speed => This check box will try to speed up the scanning process if supported by the scanner. Having this checked will not cause any issues, so it is recommended to have this checked.
Duplex Mode => If both sides of the pages are to be scanned, check this box, otherwise leave this box unchecked. (The scanner MUST support duplex for this to function)
Output file => The only option that may need to be modified is the Multipage check box. If this is checked, scanned pages will become pages of a single document rather than a new document for each page.

Starting from Top/Right:
Maximum x => These settings can be used to force a specified seperation by the number of pages scanned. Leave as default unless the template is being made for a structured set of documents.
Save => If the templarte will ONLY be used for a single database, the BASEID can be specified.
Script => Select the processing script the documents scanned will be processed with.
Uniquie Batch Name => Check this to prevent scanned btches from all having the same labels (name)
Display always… => If you want to see the status window at the end of each scanning session, check this, otherwise leave unchecked.
Specific Processing:
Pages can be seperated based on the size of the image scanned.
White pages can be used to sperate the documents. They can also be set to be removed when identified as blank.
Auto crop => remove unnecessary borders from the document
Deskew => straighten an image if it was scanned crooked.
Auto stamp => a stamp message can be applied to all scanned documents.
