Before starting to work with the DocuPen RC800 you must install the necessary driv-
ers. Please insert the DocuPen RC800 Installation CD in your CD-drive and follow the
on-screen instructions.
The DocuPen interfaces with your computer via a proprietary Twain driver. After instal-
lation, the DocuPen driver is made available to all Windows Twain-compatible applica-
tions, such as PaperPort, Windows Imaging, etc. This ensures that the scanned
images can be downloaded to your computer.
DocuPen Driver Platform Requirements: Before you install the DocuPen PenTwain
driver, make sure that your computer meets the following minimum system require-
ments:
Microsoft Windows 2000/NT/ME/XP
CD-ROM for driver installation

trol window will appear. (See above)
By clicking on the corresponding button you will install the PenTwain driver (obligato-
ry), the DocuPen Application (recommended) and the PaperPort software (recom-
mended). The Docupen Application will allow you to view the images from your
DocuPen without using any additional graphics software.
ScanSoft’s PaperPort is one of the leading Document Management Software packages
on the market and works seamlessly with our DocuPen. Although you can use any
Twain compatible graphics software we recommend PaperPort due to its document
editing capabilities

DocuPen Operation Manual 25
Points to Remember Before You Scan
What you scan is what you get. The DocuPen is sensitive to changes in direction and
scan speed and records every movement you make. The more uniform your scan swipe,
the better your scanned image results. This may take a little practice at first. Scanning
too quickly or abruptly changing acceleration causes the RED X LED to flash, reminding
you to reduce your scanning speed. To obtain the best scan results, note the following:
The document you scan must be well supported on a smooth flat surface. It is recom-
mended that you hold the top of the document with one hand while you scan with the
other. Place the DocuPen just above the area you want to scan, with the LEDs on the
left side of the document to be scanned.
Detach the USB
cable while scan-
ning. It could hin-
der your gliding
motion by pulling
on one side of the
DocuPen.
Remove staples or clips as they will impede the glid-
ing movement and the resulted scan will be distorted.
Apply even pressure, in the center of the scanner to
allow the rollers to rotate smoothly.
Press the Power ON button, select the desired color and resolution settings and slowly
glide the DocuPen down across the area you want to scan. The unit begins scanning as
soon as you start moving the pen. When you stop moving, the scan light (at the bottom
of the pen) shuts off and the DocuPen saves the data. You must wait momentarily till the
data is stored in memory. The DocuPen will then automatically shut off.
DocuPen Operation Manual 27
Hold document Keep DocuPen flat Do Not tilt
DocuPen Scratch Removal Procedure
The DocuPen uses contact image sensors to capture the information you would like to
scan. In case you accidentally scratch the lens surface or dust particles enter within the
lens the scanned image could have a distortion in the location of the scratch.
If the Auto Color Calibration procedure does not solve the problem completely then you
can refer to the Manual Scratch Removal procedure.
The Scratch Removal procedure allows you to manually enter the scratch, dust or dead
pixel(s) location(s) so the DocuPen can correct the distortion.
In order to be able to edit the Scratch list you need to perform an image scan in resolu-
tion 200 dpi. Open the scanned image in Microsoft Paint (standard Windows OS appli-
cation) and place your mouse cursor on the location of the distortion. In the lower right
corner of the Microsoft Paint window you will then see the precise {x,y} coordinates of
the error pixel location in the format e.g. {135,50}. If the distortion covers more than one
pixel please note all error locations.
To correct the error pixels please
open the DocuPen Scanner
Control window. Click on Options
and select Calibration. In the
Calibration Dialog window that
appears click on the Edit SCR
list..button
In the Edit Dust&Scratches dialog window that
appears please enter the error pixel {X} coordinate, e.g. if
the error pixel location is {135,50} enter {135}.
When you enter all error pixel locations please click OK.
Finally, click Upload Values button in the Calibration dialog window to send the values
result to the DocuPen. You will be prompted to turn the DocuPen ON. Turn ON the scan-
ner and click OK in the dialog window.
Perform another test scan to test if the distortion has been corrected. In case there are
still some inaccuracies please perform the procedure again.
DocuPen Operation Manual 26
Note: You can enter maximum 4 consecutive pixels at
a time and a maximum of 128 in total.
