A-61555 April 2009 3-3
Turning the scanner
off
Press the power switch on the left-side of the scanner to the off (O)
position.
NOTES:
You do not need to turn the main breaker switch off unless you are
going to move the scanner.
There are four leveling feet on the bottom of the scanner. If you need
to move the scanner, these leveling feet must be raised. Contact your
Kodak Service Representative before attempting to relocate the
scanner.
Starting and stopping
scanning
The scanner is controlled by a capture software application. To start
and stop scanning, refer to the documentation provided with your
application software.
Document
preparation
Kodak Scanners have been tested with a range of documents that
represent the broad spectrum of document types found in the most
common business applications. Optimal scanner performance is
achieved when scanning documents within the recommended
document specifications listed below. Scanning documents outside of
these specifications may lead to undesirable results in terms of scanner
reliability, image quality, and/or consumable life.
Materials:
Virgin, recycled and photographic papers
Clear protective sleeves meeting the size and thickness
requirements in this section
Paper Types: Bond, Laser, Inkjet, Offset
Paper Weights: The input elevator handles a broad range of paper
weights from 45 to 200 g/m
2
(12 to 110 lb.). The Kodak Feeder Kit for
Ultralightweight Paper can handle paper weights from 25 to 75 g/m
2
(7 to 20 lbs).
Minimum Document Size: 6.4 x 6.4 cm (2.5 x 2.5 in.).
Maximum Document Size: 30.5 x 86 cm (12 x 34 in.). Documents
larger than 43 cm (17 in.) may require operator assistance and
installation of optional document extenders.
Paper inks: All inks on the paper must be dry before scanning is
started. This includes: Standard offset printing, Inkjet printer, Thermal
transfer, Handwriting inks.
Correction Fluids: Liquid Paper®, Tipp-Ex®, Wite-out®, and other
similar correction fluids must be dry before scanning is started.
3-4 A-61555 April 2009
Feeder Capacity: The input elevator can hold up to 500 sheets of
75 g/m
2
(20 lb.) paper.
Before you begin scanning documents, make certain the documents
can be fed through the scanner easily.
A stack of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so
the leading edges of all documents are aligned under the feed
module; this allows the feeder to introduce documents into the
scanner one at a time.
Staples and paper clips on documents may damage the scanner and
documents. Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning.
Documents with missing corners, perforated edges, hole punches in
the margins, irregular and curled edges, torn, damaged, or crushed
pages can be transported successfully through the scanner. These
documents may require manual feeding.
When scanning mixed-sized documents, in addition to lead-edge
alignment, you may also want to left- or right-edge align the
documents. This would allow offset feeding, especially when using
the Enhanced Printer.
If in doubt about whether a specific damaged document can be
transported through the scanner, place the document in a clear
protective sleeve with the lead edge of the document aligned with the
folded edge of the sleeve. Sleeves should be manually fed, one at a
time, folded edge first, while using the gap release button. Ultrasonic
multi-feed detection is not recommended when using plastic sleeves.
NOTE: When scanning documents in a clear protective sleeve, the
input elevator side guides must be adjusted to accommodate
the width of the sleeve.
3-6 A-61555 April 2009
Adjusting the height of the
input elevator
The input elevator can be set to accommodate stacks of 25-, 100-, 250-
or 500-documents of 20 lb. bond paper. Input elevator settings are
made through the TWAIN Data source or ISIS Driver.
NOTE: In this document 25 will be referred to as the highest setting and
500 as the lowest.
Make this setting based on the number of documents you will place in
the input elevator at one time.
When set to 25 (Document Feeder or Normal), the input elevator will
remain in position. When set to 100, 250 or 500, the input elevator will
automatically raise to feed documents and lower after the last
document in your stack has been fed.
Adjusting the input tray for
document length
No adjustments are required for documents up to 14 inches long.
If you are scanning documents from 14 to 17 inches in length, open
the input elevator extension.
Documents longer than 17 inches require a document extender.
Three sizes of document extenders are available for scanning
documents from 43 cm (17 in.) to 86 cm (34 in.). See the section
entitled, “Ordering parts” in Chapter 5 or contact your Kodak Field
Engineer at 1-800-3KODAK3 (1-800-356-3253).
A-61555 April 2009 3-7
Installing the document
extender
Insert the ends of the document extender into the holes on the input
elevator and lower the extender into position.
Output tray options The scanner is shipped with a standard output tray and a short
document tray. Use the short document tray when scanning documents
less than 15.2 cm (6 in.) in length and 13.9 cm (5.5 in.) in width. See the
section entitled “Adjusting the short document tray” for more
information.
Adjusting the output
tray
The output tray can be adjusted to a variety of positions to meet your
stacking needs. Factors which determine the optimum output tray
position are size and weight of your paper and the number of
documents to be stacked in the output tray at one time.
Adjusting the side guides Adjust the side guides on the output tray to match the position of the
side guides on the input elevator.
3-8 A-61555 April 2009
Adjusting the output tray
for document lengths up to
43.2 cm (17 in.)
Adjusting for document length involves selecting an output tray position
and angle, positioning the end stop, or removing the end stop and
installing a document extender. Reviewing the following table will help
you determine the best position for your output tray and your stacking
needs.
Positioning the output tray There are three positions that the output tray can be placed in.
1. Lift the front of the output tray and pull it out of position.
2. Set the back of the tray either in the upper position (1), lower
position (2) or forward position (3) as desired.
Position Stacking capacity Maximum document

The exit deflector The exit deflector aids in document stacking. When feeding light-weight
documents, it is suggested that the exit deflector be removed.
The exit deflector can be easily removed by gently pulling it out of the
holding clips. There are three positions that the exit deflector can be
placed in.
If you are left-edge feeding documents, it is suggested that the exit
deflector be positioned in the left position.
If you are center feeding documents, it is suggested that the exit
deflector be positioned in the center position.
If you are right-edge feeding documents, it is suggested that the exit
deflector be positioned in the right position.
NOTE: If you are feeding wider or heavy documents, additional exit
deflectors can be used. Contact your Kodak Field Engineer at
1-800-3KODAK3 (1-800-356-3253) to order additional exit
deflectors (Part No. 3E9575).

Adjusting the height
of the scanner
The workspace table can be raised approximately 25.4 cm (10 in.) from
its lowest position for your comfort when you are sitting or standing at
the scanner. When you are raising or lowering the workspace table, be
sure that there is nothing close to the scanner that would interfere with
the upward and downward movement (e.g., chair, table, etc.).
Press the upper portion of the button on the control panel to raise to
workspace table.
Press the lower portion of the button on the control panel to lower the
workspace table.
If the workspace table will not move up or down from its position, check
the following:
Be sure the front and/or rear access doors are securely closed.
Be sure the workspace table is not already in its highest or lowest
position.
Be sure the scanner is on and is not in Power Saver mode.

Feeding documents
using multi-feed
detection
The scanner has three multi-feed detection sensors that can be
independently enabled or disabled. When multi-feed detection is
enabled, adjust the side guides so the documents fully cover at least
one sensor. If the document partially covers a sensor, false multi-feeds
may occur.
Automatic feeding To scan a stack of documents follow the guidelines for size, type,
quantity, etc., outlined in the “Document preparation” section.
For faster throughput, place documents into the input elevator in
landscape orientation (longer side as the leading edge).
IMPORTANT: Staples and paper clips on documents may damage the
scanner. Remove all staples and paper clips before
scanning.
1. Align the leading edges of the stacked documents.
2. Position the stack of the documents, face up in the input elevator so
the stack covers the paper present sensor.
NOTE: For Kodak i1800 Series Scanners, Firmware Version 2.1.X
(or higher): When the i1800 Series Scanner is powered-on
and paper is added to the elevator tray, the elevator will rise
to the “ready to feed” position. If you need to lower the
elevator tray after it has risen, you can either press the
Lower Elevator button (lowers to the 500-sheet position) or
move the stack of documents slightly away from the paper
present sensor and the elevator tray will return to the
original Paper Source position (e.g., 250 Sheet, 500 Sheet,
etc.).
Depending on how your capture application software is configured,
your documents will automatically start feeding, or you may need to
touch the Scan button on the touchscreen to begin feeding
documents.
3-16 A-61555 April 2009
Continuous feeding Continuous feeding can be used when you want to continuously scan
small stacks of documents (less than 25) without stopping/starting a
scan session.
When the input elevator is in highest position, continuous feeding of
small stacks of documents can be accomplished by adding them to the
bottom of the stack while scanning.
1. Align the leading edges of the stacked documents.
2. Position the stack of the documents, face up in the input elevator so
the stack covers the paper present sensor.
As the documents are being scanned, you can continuously add
documents to the bottom of the stack. When adding documents, be
sure that the paper present sensor remains covered at all times.
Manual feeding When the scanner is configured for manual feeding, the input elevator
is raised to the highest position where approximately 25 documents can
be loaded. The input elevator will remain in this position to allow
documents to be fed one at a time.
To manually feed documents:
1. Position the document you want to feed in the input elevator so that
the paper present sensor is covered.
2. Touch Scan on the touchscreen.
NOTE: The Kodak Manual Feeder Accessory is also available provides
a larger surface for manual feeding. See Appendix A,
Accessories for more information.

Feeding documents
that require special
handling
The gap release button allows you to manually adjust the space
between the feed module and separation roller for documents that
require special handling; e.g., documents that are badly torn. If you are
in doubt about whether a damaged document can be transported
through the scanner, use the gap release button and manually feed the
document. Using the scanner in continuous feed mode is
recommended when handling special documents.
1. Raise the input elevator to the highest position.
2. Press and hold the gap release button — this provides clearance to
ease document feeding.
3. Push the document into the input elevator. If more than one
document is to be scanned, feed them one at a time.
4. After the document(s) has been fed, release the gap release button.
