Basic Overview
The steps outlined in this guide will allow you to
perform basic operations. For detailed information
and procedures, see the User’s Guide for the Kodak
Scan Station 100, A-61544.
Be sure the Scan Station power is on.
Adjust the input and output trays as needed.
Basic operation means that the default Scan Station
settings are used.
If the message, “Please wait, lamps are warming up” is
displayed. The Scan Station will wait until the message
is no longer displayed before processing your
document.
Documents are placed face down and top down in the
input tray with the side you want to scan facing the
input tray.
Two-sided documents are scanned in one pass.
More than one email address, printer and network
share can be selected at a time.
If you select an email address, printer or network share
that you don’t want, just select the item again to
uncheck it.
When document scanning is in process, you can
Cancel at any time.
Customizing Settings for your Scan Station
If you want to change the default image processing
settings, access Settings mode then select and
change the desired image processing setting. The
settings you change remain in effect only for the
current scan session.
Following is a brief description of the image
processing settings. See the User’s Guide for
detailed descriptions and procedures.
