Scanning Documents with iX100 by Inserting the Next Document While the Current Document Is Being Scanned
When ScanSnap Connect Application is used to scan small size documents such as business cards and postcards with iX100, you can insert the next document while the current document is being scanned. These scanning methods are referred to as dual scans.
For details about documents that can be scanned, refer to Documents That Can Be Loaded Directly into iX100.
When you select an option other than [Auto] for [Paper] in the [Profile] window, the dual scan function is disabled.
Use a dual scan to scan a document within the following ranges. If one of the following ranges is exceeded, a length error occurs and part of the document may not appear in the scanned image.
Maximum scanning length (356 mm (14 in.) per sheet): 863 mm (34 in.)
Maximum number of documents for scanning: 20 sheets
When you continue scanning by inserting the next document while the current document is being scanned, the [Scan/Stop] button flashes more quickly if the scanning length exceeds 650 mm (26 in.). If this occurs, wait until scanning is complete without continuing to insert more documents. After scanning is complete, insert the next document. The next scan is started automatically.

Open the feed guide of iX100.
HINTIf you want the document to be ejected from the front of iX100 or when there is not enough space at the back of iX100 to allow the document to be completely ejected, open the output guide.
For details about documents that can be scanned with the output guide open, refer to Documents That Can Be Loaded Directly into iX100.
How the document is ejected differs as below depending on whether the output guide is open or closed.
When the output guide is closed
When the output guide is open
The [Scan/Stop] button flashes in blue. The button returns to being lit normally when document scanning is enabled.
-
Insert the document straight into the feeding section of iX100, with the scanning side facing up.
Insert each document in the center of the left or right half of the feeding section.
The document is pulled in until it is set inside iX100.
ATTENTIONWhen inserting the documents, insert them at least 10 mm (0.39 in.) apart from each other. If the space between the documents is less than 10 mm (0.39 in.), the scanned images may not be cropped correctly.
When you perform scanning with the output guide closed, leave enough space at the back of iX100 to allow the document to be completely ejected.
Make sure that the area where the document is ejected from iX100 is clear of any obstacles. Otherwise, paper jam may occur.
If you scan the following documents with the output guide open, a paper jam may occur and damage the documents. Scan the following documents with the output guide closed.
Thick paper (80 g/m2 [20 lb] or heavier)
