Operation Steps
The copyboard uses a CIS (Contact Image Sensor) image sensor to read the diagrams and text that have
been written down with special (4-color) markers, and accumulates the image data in internal memory. The
sheet surface’s image data is printed out from the printer when the Color Print ( ) or B/W Print ( ) button is
pressed, or stored as image data on the USB memory device or in the main unit’s internal memory when the
Save ( ) button is pressed.

Using USB Memory
The content of what has been drawn on the sheet surface of the copyboard can be saved in USB memory.
Later, the saved image can be read into a personal computer and made into a document of the proceedings of
the meeting, or affixed to a document.
The name of the folder on the USB memory device is “CB_Image”. Image files are stored in this folder.
By factory setting upon purchase, image files are named “PV-xxx.pdf” (PDF files), where “xxx” refers to a
3-digit number starting from 001 (ex.: PV-001.pdf).
