1 - 12 Document Reader Imaging Guide
S - Pixel Ship
Pixel Ship sizes an image in proportion to its original size. It decimates the image by shipping only certain, regularly spaced
pixels. For example, 4S would transmit every fourth pixel from every fourth line. The smaller number of pixels shipped, the
smaller the image, however, after a certain point the image becomes unusable.
1S ship every pixel (default)
2S ship every 2nd pixel, both horizontally and vertically
3S ship every 3rd pixel, both horizontally and vertically
U - Document Image Filter
Allows you to input parameters to sharpen the edges and smooth the area between the edges of text in an image. This filter
should be used with gamma correction (see page 1-10), with the document reader in a stand, and the image captured using
the command:
IMGSNP1P0L168W90%32D
This filter typically provides better JPEG compression than the standard E - Edge Sharpen command (see page 1-13). This
filter also works well when shipping pure black and white images (1 bit per pixel). The optimal setting is 26U.
Note: If you want to use an automatic image filter, rather than changing these settings manually, refer to IU - Image Adaptive
Text Filter (page 1-9).
0U Document image filter off (default)
26U Apply document image filter for typical document image
nU Apply document image filter using grayscale threshold n. Use lower numbers when the image contrast is lower.
1U will have a similar effect to setting E - Edge Sharpen (page 1-7) to 22e. Range: 0-255.
