Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Panasonic Document Scanner.
Feature Highlights
Superior Paper Feeding
•This scanner features an advanced paper-feeding mechanism that adjusts the pressure of the rollers and
the amount of time that the rollers are applied to the document according to the condition of the document.
As a result, this scanner can scan a wide range of paper weights, from very thin 20 g/m² (5 lb.) paper to
very thick 157 g/m² (42 lb.) paper.
High-speed Double Sided Scanning
•This scanner can scan documents at high speed, regardless of the image type (monochrome / color).
Single sided: 100 pages/minute, double sided: 200 images/minute (200 dpi, 300 dpi) for KV-S5076H
Single sided: 80 pages/minute, double sided: 160 images/minute (200 dpi, 300 dpi) for KV-S5046H
* Speeds based on scanning A4 size paper in landscape orientation.
Support for High-efficiency Scanning Jobs
•Self-cleaning function
This scanner has self-cleaning brushes that clean paper dust off of the scanning glass. The KV-S5076H
also contains an ionizer that, by emitting ions, reduces the amount of paper dust that accumulates on the
scanning glass.
•Stapled document detection (KV-S5076H only)
This scanner has a stapled document detection that detects documents that contain staples and stops
scanning before any serious damage occurs.
•Background color switch function
Using the software, you can switch the background color of scanned images between white and black.
•Mechanical deskew (KV-S5076H only)
In addition to adjusting skewed documents via the software (deskew), this scanner supports the mechanical
deskew function that detects skew in documents before they are scanned, and adjusts the document using
the feeding mechanism. With this function, you can reduce the various problems that arise from skewed
documents.
•Double feed detection function
This scanner contains ultrasonic sensors that detect double feeding. Double feeding can be detected even
if you scan documents that contain paper of various thicknesses.
•Double Feed Skip (DFS) function
If scanning has been stopped because a double feed was detected, you can easily resume scanning by
pressing the Skip button (SKIP). When you scan documents that include items that you do not want to be
detected as double feeding (for example, documents that have receipts attached, envelopes, etc.), the
double feed detection function can be enabled and still scan these documents.
Other Features
•You can set the left and right document guides independently. By doing so, you can reliably scan
documents of differing paper sizes.
•The paper feed path can be opened widely to easily remove jammed paper and perform maintenance.
•This scanner has a counter function which indicates the approximate time for cleaning and replacement
of the rollers. The counters can be configured and checked in User Utility.
