The scanner has a compact size of 300 (W) x 339 (H) x 235 (D) 
(11.81 (W) x 13.3 (H) x 9.25 (D)) mm when the document feed is 
open. A newly designed feed mechanism saves space by eliminating 
the need for space to eject paper at the front of the scanner.

(when scanning one-sided or two-sided documents of A4 size at 200 
dpi).
zTwo Eject Paths for Scanning a Variety of Documents

straight path to scan cards and other thick documents.
zHigh Image Quality
The 600 dpi optical resolution sensor incorporated in the scanner 
enables documents to be scanned with high image quality.
zUSB 2.0 Interface
The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.
Indicates operational requirements and restrictions. Be sure to read 
these items carefully to operate the machine correctly, and avoid

zColor/Grayscale Support
Documents can be scanned in 24-bit color or 256-level grayscale.
zSupports a Variety of Scanning Modes
The scanner supports the following scanning modes, depending on 
the document type:
• Single-sided or double-sided scanning (with Skip Blank Page 
function)
 Continuous or single sheet feed
zCard Scan
You can scan business or ID cards.
zPaper Size Detection
The scanner automatically detects the size of a scanned document 
and eliminates any unnecessary space around the edges of the 
image when storing the image, even when storing a document of 
irregular size.
zAuto Color Detection
The scanner detects whether the scanned document is in color, 
grayscale, or black and white (binary), and saves the image 
accordingly.
zFull Auto Mode
A Full Auto Mode is provided in CaptureOnTouch and the scanner 
driver to allow scanning under automatically determined conditions. 
Scanning conditions such as the color mode and page size are set 
automatically based on the document being scanned.
zAuto Resolution Detection
When enabled in the CaptureOnTouch or scanner driver settings, this 
function detects the content of documents and determines the 
scanning resolution automatically.
zFolio Scan
You can scan folded documents. The scanner will scan both sides 
and combine the scanned images into a single image.
zDeskew
The scanner straightens scanned images when it detects that the 
document was placed askew.
zUltrasonic Double Feed Detection
Ultrasonic waves are used to detect pages that are fed at the same 
time as well as the space between pages. Scanning stops if a double 
feed is detected.zText Enhancement Modes
The scanner is equipped with the Advanced Text Enhancement Mode 
(only for Windows), for enhancing the text of documents with dark or 
uneven backgrounds, and the Advanced Text Enhancement II mode, 
for enhancing the text when both the text and background are light.
These modes may not work, depending on the type of document.
zColor Drop-out
The scanner is equipped with a Color Drop-out function that enables 
you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from the scanned image 
during black and white or grayscale scanning.
zSkip Blank Page Function
The scanner is equipped with a Skip Blank Page function that 
enables you to scan a document without storing images of blank 
pages, regardless of whether each page of the document is two-
sided or one-sided. Both sides are scanned, but saving the image is 
skipped for scan images judged to be from a blank page.
zPrescan Function
The scanner is equipped with a Prescan function that allows you to 
adjust the contrast and brightness of a prescanned image and then 
send the adjusted image to the application software, without needing 
to scan the document again.
zCharacter/Line Emphasis Function
If characters and lines in scanned images are not clearly visible, you 
can use this function to adjust their thickness during scanning.
zCaptureOnTouch
The bundled CaptureOnTouch software lets you register specific 
scanning procedures suited to particular document types and 
applications for easy access just by selecting the scanning job.
zScanning Shortcut
Using CaptureOnTouch, you can register commonly used 
combinations of scan modes and output methods as [Scanning 
Shortcut] for quick access. Any [Scanning Shortcut] can be assigned 
a start button. 
zAu to Star t
The scanner is equipped with an auto start function, which enables 
scanning to be automatically started when a document placed in the 
feeder is detected.

zSleep Mode
The scanner is designed to save energy by entering the sleep mode 
when it is not scanning documents.
DR-C225W
