6 Océ CS 4040/4050 Installation Manual
System overview
The Océ CS 4040/4050 and accompanying Colour Scan software allow you to
scan-to-file drawings, maps, and pictures in colour or graytone mode.
CS 4040 Three 5350 RGB-triplet pixels and tri-linear colour CCD (charged
coupled device) cameras.
CS 4050 Four 5350 RGB-triplet pixels and tri-linear colour CCD (charged
coupled device) cameras.
The scanner has fluorescent lighting and individual adaptive light
compensation on each pixel.
Scanner features
The Océ CS 4040/4050 comprises the following features:
■Media thickness up to 0.6” (15 mm)
■Variable resolution in one-dpi increments
■Individual tone adjustment for each colour channel (RGB) via gamma and
black and white point correction
■Colour and monochrome 2-D sharpening and softening filters to enhance
fine details and reduce moiré effects when you scan halftone originals
■Colour calibration using the ANSI IT-8 colour reference chart to improve
long term stability of the scanner colour balance, linearity and chromaticity
■ICC (International Colour Consortium) profile to support Colour
Management Systems (CMS)
■Colour feature extraction to enhance clarity from poor quality originals and
improve details in complex maps and drawings
■Monochrome scanner functions
■Scanning modes from true colour (24-bit RGB) to black and white

Introduction 7
Operating modes
The CS 4040/4050 scanner scans documents in the following colour and black
and white modes:
24 bit RGB colour mode This mode scans images at the full 24-bit true colour
mode for 16.8 million colours.
Indexed colour mode When you scan documents with a limited range of
colours, this mode maps true colours to an indexed colour palette. The scanner
generates this colour palette automatically when it does an adaptive colour
prescan of the original.
The scanner’s ability to transform a true colour image from 16.8 million
colours down to 16 or 256 colours greatly reduces the data volume. At thesame
time, the scan speed increases and the disk storage requirements decrease
(needing only 4 bits or 8 bits per pixel, compared with the 24 bits required in
true colour mode).
Feature extracted (classified) colour mode This mode uses colour mapping
to sort the observed colour features in a document and to classify them into
categories using a colour LUT (look up table). You can generate this LUT once
and download it to the scanner for a similar class of documents. Colour
mapping can improve details in complex maps or drawings, while increasing
the scan speed and minimizing disk storage requirements.
Grayscale mode (256 levels) This mode scans the actual gray level of each
pixel, up to 256 levels. Each pixel corresponds to 1 byte (8 bits). The images
scanned in grayscale mode result in files that are 8 times larger than
uncompressed files scanned in lineart mode at the same resolution.
Lineart mode (bitmapped, 2-level) This mode reproduces each scanned pixel
as a single bit, either black (1) or white (0), depending on whether its gray level
lies below or above the threshold level. This mode supports both fixed level and
2-D adaptive thresholding.
Dithered mode (halftone dither) Converts gray levels of the scanned pixels
into halftones by dithering. This results in very high density line mode files that
are much larger than uncompressed files scanned in line mode at the same
resolution.

SCSI installation
On PC-DOS or compatible computers running Windows 95/98 or Windows
NT 4.0, you must first install the SCSI board before you connect the scanner
to your computer.
SCSI connection precautions
■Power off your system, your scanner, and all peripheral devices before you
connect or disconnect SCSI cables. Failure to do this may result in a system
crash and, in some cases, destruction of data on your hard disk.
■If the scanner is the last device on the SCSI bus, turn on the built-in active
SCSI terminator (switch 4). Otherwise make sure you turn this switch off. Do
not connect any other terminator on the unused SCSI connector, since switch
4 already specifies termination.
■The total length of all SCSI cables must be less than 4 meters.
SCSI board installation
The SCSI board comes with the SCSI interface kit.
Attention: Use only the SCSI board provided with the scanner. Do not
connect any other SCSI device to the same SCSI board.
▼To install the SCSI board on the computer
1Power off computer unit and all peripherals, such as diplays or printers.
2Unplug the computer and peripherals from the electrical outlet.
3With a screwdriver, loosen the screws to remove the computer cover. Remove
the top cover to expose the extension slots.
4Choose a free extension slot. Loosen and remove the screw to the back panel.
5Holding the SCSI board by its metal support bracket, align and press the board
firmly into the extension slot.
6Use the back panel screw to secure the board to the computer frame. (You put
the top cover of the computer back on only after you have completed the entire
configuration.)
