2 Best Practices
This chapter provides you with recommendations for program
logic, which will allow you to interact efficiently with the i100
Series Scanner. This high-level information is not intended to be
used as a programming guide. The following information is
provided in this chapter:
• Basic image capture
• Controlling image transfer order – switching between
color/grayscale and bi-tonal
• Jam recovery
• Image file storage locations
• Bar code recognition
• Controlling print strings
• Electronic color dropout (form design, dropout colors)
• Available image header information and its uses
• Zone processing (re-combining images, especially for viewing)
NOTE: The term host refers to either the driver or application.
Basic image capture
Basic image capture is the high-level logic flow for retrieving images
from the scanner.
Follow this sequence to scan documents:
• setup the scanner
• enable scanning
• initiate polling
• feed documents
• disable scanning
