The Eject Tray includes two Document Eject Guides, the 
Eject Tray Extension and Eject Paper Stopper, to be adjusted 
to match the length of your documents.
■Document Guides
Slide the document eject guides to match the width of your 
documents.
Hint
 The position of the document eject guides can be shifted to the 
left or right by holding one guide in place while moving the 
other.
 To reset the guides so that they are equidistant from the 
center, spread the guides all the way to the left and right.
■Document Eject Tray Extension
Pull out the tray extension to match the length of your document.
■Eject Paper Stoppers
Raise the appropriate Eject Paper Stopper to stop ejected 
documents from spilling out of the eject tray.

4.Document Feeding Methods
Two document feeding methods are available: Continuous Feeding, which feeds documents automatically from the document tray 
by the pickup roller; and Manual Feeding, which requires one document at a time to be positioned manually for transport by the 
feed roller, while the pickup roller is disabled.
Selecting the Document Feeding Method
Continuous Feeding is the default feeding method, but 
Manual Feeding can be enabled by selecting Manual Feeding 
as the Feeding Option for the ISIS/TWAIN driver, or by 
pressing the Bypass Mode key on the control panel. A 
Continuous Manual Feeding Mode is also provided as a way 
to scan a batch of document pages that cannot be 
automatically transported.
Continuous Feeding
With Continuous Feeding, documents loaded in the 
Document Feed Tray are picked up automatically by the 
pickup roller and transported by the feed roller, while the 
retard roller separates each page to avoid double feeding.Manual Feeding
The Bypass Mode key lights and the Document Feed Tray 
rises so that documents can be fed manually one at a time. 
When manual feeding, you must insert each document 
page far enough to be pulled in by the feed roller (because 
the pickup roller is disabled).
IMPORTANT
 Because pages are not separated by the retard roller during 
manual feeding, a paper jam will occur if multiple pages are 
loaded together.
 To scan bound multi-page documents such as invoice 
booklets, place the bound edge against the feed inlet and scan 
using manual feeding. 
Hint
 The [Bypass Mode] key is linked to the [Manual Feeding] Feed 
Option setting (p. 8-19) of the ISIS/TWAIN driver.
 When the [Bypass Mode] key on the control panel is pressed 
or the [Manual Feeding] Feed Option is selected, the [Bypass 
Mode] key lights and the Document Feed Tray rises.

User Mode when document pages do not separate well 
using Continuous Feeding.
IMPORTANT
When the Continuous Manual Feeding Mode is set to ON from 
the User Mode, make sure to disable it (set to OFF) when 
finished scanning. Otherwise, normal continuous feeding will be 
disabled the next time someone uses the scanner. 
Hint
For Manual Feeding, you must feed document one page at a 
time. For Continuous Manual Feeding, you must place the 
documents on the Document Feed Tray and insert them into the 
Document Feed Tray opening one page at a time, making 
operation easier.

6.Using Patchcode Sheets (Option)
When the optional patchcode decoder is installed, the DR-X10C supports Automatic File Separation by detecting patchcode sheets 
inserted within a document, and performs batch separation.
About Patchcode Sheets
Patchcode patterns are printed on the patchcode sheets used to 
automatically separate files. Patchcode pattern icons are 
registered in the following location when the ISIS/TWAIN 
driver is installed.
IMPORTANT
 Patchcode sheets can be used only when the application you are 
using supports separating files by patchcode patterns.
 Patchcode sheets are data in PDF format. There are four types; 
[PATCH II (A4)], [PATCH II (LTR)], [PATCH T (A4)], [PATCH T 
(LTR)], organized according to the paper size and pattern.
 Patchcode sheets cannot be used when the MultiStream function 
(See “MultiStream Function” on p. 1-8.) is being used by 
CapturePerfect 3.0.
■Printing Patchcode Sheets
Open the desired patchcode sheet file with an application 
that supports CapturePerfect 3.0 or the PDF file format, 
and print the page image only at its original size. 
IMPORTANT
 Print (at original size) PATCH T (A4) and PATCH II (A4) 
sheets on A4-size paper, or PATCH T (LTR) and PATCH II 
(LTR) on LTR paper. Patchcode sheets must be printed in their original size. The 
scanner may not recognize them as patchcode sheets if they 
are enlarged or reduced.
■Patchcode Pattern Function
There are two types of patchcodes, and their function 
changes according to their pattern.
PATCH T
When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a 
patchcode sheet, it creates a separate file for the document 
that comes after the patchcode sheet. The image of this 
sheet can be saved or not, depending on the application’s 
settings.
PATCH II
When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a 
patchcode sheet, it creates a separate file starting from the 
patchcode sheet. The image of this sheet is saved, 
regardless of the application’s settings.

Chapter 3   Basic Operation
How to Use Patchcode Sheets
This section describes how to use patchcode sheets with 
CapturePerfect 3.0.
1.Print the patchcode sheets on a printer.
IMPORTANT
 Print (at original size) PATCH T (A4) and PATCH II (A4) 
sheets on A4 paper, or PATCH T (LTR) and PATCH II (LTR) 
on LTR paper.
 The scanner may not recognize the patchcodes if they are 
enlarged or reduced.
2.Insert the patchcode sheet in front of the document 
that you want to save as a separate file before 
placing the documents on the scanner.
3.On the [Other] tab of the ISIS driver properties, select 
[Patchcode] from the Batch Separation drop-down 
list.
IMPORTANT
If the patchcode decoder is not installed, the [Patchcode] batch 
separation setting is not displayed. (See “Batch Separation” on 
p. 8-20.)
4.Perform scanning with batch separation enabled.
5.Set the [Type of batch separation] setting to [Scan, 
Continue Scanning] or [Skip, Continue Scanning].
Hint
 If [Scan, Continue Scanning] is selected or if the patchcode is 
PATCH ll type, the patchcode sheet image is also saved and 
scanning continues.
 If [Skip, Continue Scanning] is selected and the PATCH T 
pattern is detected, the patchcode sheet image is not saved 
and scanning continues.
■Creating a Patchcode Sheet
To copy a patchcode pattern to create a different size 
patchcode sheet, make sure to pay attention to the 
following precautions:
IMPORTANT
 Adjust the patchcode so that it fits into the effective area for 
detecting patchcode patterns.
 When copying a patchcode pattern, the copy should be the 
same size and print density as the pattern on the original. 
Extremely dark or light copies may not be scanned correctly.
 Be careful to keep patchcode sheets clean. If a patchcode 
sheet has been folded or becomes creased, reprint or replace 
the sheet.
Insert patchcode sheets in front of 
the documents you want to save as 
separate files.
