•Fa x  a n d  Pr i n t  is for sending your scanned documents directly to your printer or fax software. 
•
STI event forwarding is for using another application’s interface for scanning. The OneTouch Event 
Forwarding dialog box opens so you can select which application to use to continue scanning.
Enable scanning to multiple destinations—select this option to allow for multiple destinations to be 
selected, in the destination list, on the OneTouch configuration tab. This feature allows you to scan one 
time while distributing the file to multiple destinations. Please refer to Scanning to Multiple 
Destinations on page 118.
Instant delivery—enables image transfer to the destination while scanning is in progress, provided that 
Create Single Image Files is also selected. If 
Create single image files is not selected, image transfer 
occurs after all pages have been scanned.
Show progress window—select this option to display the progress window of the document(s) during 
scanning.
Use job separator when scanning multiple pages—select this option to have the scanner separate 
multiple page scan jobs into separate files when scanning is complete. 
•
When a blank page is detected—select this option to have a new file created each time a blank 
page is detected in the stack of pages being scanned. Note that when scanning duplex, both sides 
of the page must be blank.
•
When the number of images reaches—select this option, and input a number in the box, to have a 
new file created each time the number of images scanned reaches the number you input in this 
field. Note that when scanning duplex, the number of images detected is twice the number of 
pages scanned. For example, if you input “5” in the field, and scan 10 pages, 20 images are 
captured, and you will get 4 separate files with 5 images in each file.
Please refer to Scanning with Job Separation on page 121 for detailed information about scanning 
with job separation, and how it works with other options in OneTouch.
Use custom file naming—select this option to enable the input field so that you can specify the file 
name for your scanned document(s). You can specify a different file name for each OneTouch button. 
When this option is not select, the file name is automatically generated by OneTouch for all scans.
• The preview area, to the right of the 
Use custom file naming text, shows an example of the 
filename as you type into the input field and/or select token options from the list.
• Type the file name you want into the input field. Note that you cannot input these characters in a 
file name:  / : * ? “ < > |
When inputting a file name, the file name must be unique, otherwise every scan created would 
overwrite the previous scan. The menu to the right of the input field contains a list of tokens you 
can select to create unique file names. These tokens include counting numbers, date and time 
values, number of pages scanned, and so on. If the button name is not unique, you will see an on-
screen notification that a 
{BatchID} and {#b} will be inserted into the name. 
• Click the down arrow and selected a token value from the list, then click the arrow button to add 
that value to the file name field. The token values are:
•
{FN}—inserts the scanner name.
•
{#b}—inserts the image number without adding zero (1).
•
{#03b}—inserts a 3-digit image number in the scan batch (001).
•
{D}—inserts the numeric day of the month without a zero added to single-digit days (4).

Some destination application links, such as the NewSoft Presto! BizCard software, require a specific 
filename format for the images that have been sent to the link to open correctly in the application. For 
example, when scanning duplex, if the image token 
{#03b} is not included in the filename, then each 
image sent will be regarded as a separate scan, and instead of one file with 2 pages you will have 2 
files. As each destination application link is different, there is no standard filename type you can create 
to use for all destinations. If you scan and the images are not grouped in the file(s) as needed, try 
deselecting 
Use custom file naming and then scan again.

User’s Guide65 Brightness
—sometimes an image is scanned with the brightness and contrast set too light or too dark. 
For example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility. 
Increasing or decreasing the brightness makes the scanned image lighter or darker.
Contrast—the difference between the lighter and darker portions of the image. Increasing the contrast 
emphasizes the difference between the lighter and darker portions, decreasing the contrast de-
emphasizes that difference.
Key and Lock icon—if you want to lock the configuration, click the key icon to change it from a Key to a 
Lock.
Page Settings Tab

•Reduce Moiré patterns—moiré patterns are wavy, rippled lines that sometimes appear on the 
scanned images of photographs or illustrations, particularly newspaper and magazine 
illustrations. Selecting 
Reduce moiré patterns will limit or eliminate moiré patterns in the scanned 
image. This option is only available when scanning in Color or Grayscale at lower resolutions, and 
when 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 using the 
paper guides to feed the paper in straight. 
•
Invert image—only available for Black&White Mode, this option reverses the black and whites of 
an image.
•
Skip blank originals—select this option to have the scanner detect if a blank page has been fed 
through the scanner, and remove it from the final file. Typically you might use this option when 
scanning a stack of two-sided pages which have a number of blank sides.
Sensitivity—you can adjust the sensitivity level of the blank image detection. 
Note that when the Options tab feature 
Use job separator in multi-page batch is enabled, and the 
option selected is

When the number of images reaches, the blank originals are discarded before the images 
are counted. For example, if you scan 3 pages in duplex mode, each side of the page is counted as 
an image and the total number of images is 6. When Skip Blank Originals is enabled, and 2 of the 
3 pages in the stack are blank on one side, the total number of images counted is 4 not 6.

Please refer to the technical note, at the end of this section, for information about how this setting 
works with other options in the OneTouch Scan Configuration you are modifying. 
Enable redaction—select this option to enable redaction when scanning. You might use this option if 
you want to remove a logo or image that appears on each page that you are scanning. You can choose 
what color to fill in the redacted area in the scanned image, and set multiple areas. If you are scanning 
in Duplex mode, you can specify the area separately for the front and back side of the pages.
Click 
Add to add a line item to the area list in this window. You can redact multiple areas from the 
scanned image, click the 
Add button again to continue adding line items to the list. Select an item in 
the list then click the 
Remove button to remove the specified redaction area from the list.
Side—click once on the word Front to show the Side option list. If you are using a simplex (one-sided) 
scanner, only the Front option will be available. If your scanner supports duplex (two-sided) scanning, 
the options 
Front, Back, and Both will be available in the list.
•
Front—this is the Simplex side of the page. The area(s) specified for the Front will only apply to 
the Simplex side of the page when scanning in Duplex. Therefore, if you scan 4 double-sided 
pages, the resulting image file(s) will have redacted areas on pages 1, 3, 5, and 7.
•
Back—this is the Duplex side of the page. The area(s) specified for the Back will only apply to the 
Duplex side of the page when scanning in Duplex. Therefore, if you scan 4 double-sided pages, the 
resulting image file(s) will have redacted areas on pages 2, 4, 6, and 8.
•
Both—select this option if you want to specify an area that appears in the same place on both 
sides of the page, such as a company logo, so you don’t have to specify the same area separately 
for both the front and back.
