whether the scanned image is blank or not.

page will divide scanned image sequence into parts. Each
part will be treated as a separate document (group).
-Start from scanner: If this option is checked, scanning process
is managed using scanner touch screen rather than from the
computer. The option is not available for some scanner
models.
