Disabled Options in this Section
Some options in the interface may be grayed out and cannot be selected. Grayed out options are either 
not appropriate for the current scanner, the software needed to enable the feature is not installed, 
or 
the feature is dependent on another setting in the scanner's interface. Hover the mouse cursor over a 
grayed out feature to see information about why the feature is unavailable.
When you are using a scanner that has multiple sources, such as an ADF with Flatbed combination 
scanner, some options may be disabled based on the current source displayed in the source list. For 
example when the flatbed source is selected, the manual feed option will be disabled.  
If an option is unavailable, check to see which source is displayed at the top of the source list when in 
the Advanced interface view.
Note that even when 
Sources identical is selected, any options that are only available for a specific 
source will be discarded if the scanner scans from the source that does not have those options.
When Flatbed is displayed here, only the 
options that can be used for the flatbed will 
be available in the scanner interface.Click on one of the color modes under the 
source you want to configure.  That source will 
now be displayed at the top of the list, and 
the options for that source will be available in 
the scanner interface.

Resolution
The resolution determines the amount of detail you can see in the scanned image. Resolution is the 
clarity of the image measured in dots-per-inch (dpi).
Move the slider left or right to change the resolution for the scanned image. The higher the resolution, 
the clearer the image. However, high resolution scans also produce larger file sizes. The available range 
displayed in the slider area are within the minimum and maximum range supported by your scanner. 
The resolution slider will always display the correct range for the current scanner.
Choosing resolution values
Typically, when making copies of black and white documents, 100–150 dpi will create an image of 
similar quality to the original. When making copies of color documents or photographs, 150–200 dpi 
will create an image of similar quality to the original.
Higher resolution settings are generally used for creating an image that can be enlarged without losing 
image quality, but take longer to scan.
Some resolution settings for typically scanned items are:
•Te x t  d o c u m e n t letters, forms, or other typed black and white documents – 100 dpi to 150 dpi
•
Te x t  d o c u m e n t letters or forms with hand printed text – 150 dpi

•Te x t  d o c u m e n t  ( f o r  O C R )  forms, letters, memos, or spreadsheets – 300 dpi
•
Business cards or other items with small print – 300 dpi
•
Color page with graphics or color photographs – 150 dpi

Magazine page with graphics, line art, or color photographs – 200 dpi
Document Size
Standard document sizes
Click the drop down menu and select a pre-defined document size from the list. The available 
document sizes are within the scanner's range of minimum and maximum item size. 
Custom document sizes
Select the measurement units you want to use from the Units list.
If the 
Document size list does not include the document size for your scanning batch, click in one of the 
fields below the document size list. Input the width of the document in the first field, then input the 
height in the second field. 
You can input a maximum of 14 or 17 inches in the height field. Please refer to Long Document if your 
scanner supports page lengths greater than 14 or 17 inches and you want to scan long pages.
You can only specify values within the scanner's minimum and maximum supported item size. Please 
refer to the maintenance section of the scanner user's guide for this information.
Long Document
Select Long document to enable support of paper sizes up to the scanner maximum. After you select 
this option make sure you input the page length for your document in the custom input field, located 
below the 
Document size selection list.

User’s Guide169
Note that some of the options in the scanner interface cannot be used when the page length will be 
greater than 14 or 17 inches. When you select this option, incompatible options will either be 
automatically disabled or the setting will simply be discarded while scanning. 
Straighten Image
Select this option to let the scanner automatically determine if a page is skewed, then straighten its 
image. This option is only available if the scanner supports this feature.
If you are scanning using an automatic document feeder, and the page is fed through at too great of 
an angle, the image may not straighten correctly. In that case, re-scan the page making sure the paper 
guides are adjusted to the width of the pages in the input tray so that the pages are pulled straight 
through the scanner.
Rotate Image
Select an option in this list to have the final image rotated when scanning is complete.
Flip Back Side
Select this option if you are scanning duplex pages that are calendar style orientation. This option will 
rotate the back side image 180 degrees from the front side.  When scanning in duplex mode without 
this option selected, the back side image of calendar orientation pages will appear upside down in the 
final scan. This option does not automatically determine book page orientation versus calendar page 
orientation.  If you have this option selected when scanning book orientation pages, the image for the 
back side of the page will appear upside down in the final scan.  If you are scanning a batch of 
documents that contain both types of orientation, we recommend that you select Automatic in the 
Rotate image list. 
This option is available only if the current scanner supports duplex scanning and the Duplex option is 
selected in the scanning interface.
Merge Two Sides
When scanning in duplex mode, you can enable this option to have both sides of a scanned item 
appear on one page in the final image file.  The options in the list allow you to select where you want 
the front side image to appear in relation to the back side image in the final file.  
						

							Xerox® DocuMate® 3115
User’s Guide 170
The following image shows a cheque scanned in duplex mode without Merge two sides enabled, and 
the same cheque scanned with Merge two sides enabled.  When Merge two sides is not enabled, side 1 
and side 2 of the cheque are saved in two separate files (IMG_0001 and IMG_0002 respectively).  
With Merge two sides enabled, both sides of the cheque are in a single file (IMG_0003).  If you are 
scanning a stack of items using a multipage file format, such as a PDF file, then each page in the final 
file will have both the front and back images of the scanned items.
Height threshold
Input the maximum height of images to be merged. The sides will not be merged if the height of 
either the front or rear image exceeds this value. For example, if you are scanning a batch of mixed 
documents such as cheques and statements, you may want both sides of the cheques merged into one 
image but not the statements.  The Height threshold needs to be lower than the length of the 
documents you do not want merged into a single file.
Select one of the options in the Merge two sides list to enable this field. Note that you will also need to 
enable 
Long document if you want to have the maximum height threshold be longer than 17 inches 
(431 mm).
Advanced Panel Options
The options in this panel may also appear in the Main panel, but with additional settings for you to 
fine-tune the feature you've selected. Select the 
Advanced source configuration mode to show this 
panel.
