Using the Multi-Feed Detector
Introduction
The
Kodak Digital Science
Multi-Feed Detector aids in document
processing by detecting documents that may go through the feeder
one on top of the other. Multi-feeds can easily happen due to damp
documents, adhesives on documents, electrostatically charged
documents, or a maladjusted feeder gap.
The Multi-Feed Detector is an accessory on the following models:
Kodak Digital Science
Scanner 9500 (S or D)
Kodak Digital Science
Scanner/Microimager 990 (S or D)
Kodak Imagelink
Scanners 900 and 923 (S or D)
Kodak Imagelink
Microimager 70
For the purpose of this User’s Guide, the equipment listed above will
be generically referred to as “scanner”.
NOTE: This accessory is not intended for use on machines with the
Check Feeder accessory.
Before you begin
For the Multi-Feed Detector to function properly be sure of the
following:
Documents must be greater than or equal to 2.5 inches (104 mm)
in length. (Length is measured parallel to the direction of feeding.)
Minimum document width is 4.5 inches.
The thickness of the documents within a batch must be the same
within ±10% from any nominal value from 2.0 to 7.0 mils.
Documents should be in good condition.
The document stack is fanned before feeding to aid in document
separation.
For a microimager, be sure the Advanced Document Controller*
and skew detection is installed and enabled in the desired mode.
