Scanning
The following items on the scanned image may differ between the case where the mobile device is directly connected to iX100 and the case where it is connected to the computer.
Image quality
Recognized document colors
Detected blank pages
Detected paper size
- Color Mode
The following color modes are available.
Auto
Automatically detects the color of each document and scans in color or gray.
Color
Always saves the scanned image as color.
Gray
Always saves the scanned image as gray.
B&W
Always saves the scanned image as black & white.
This option is available when [PDF] is selected for [File format].
- Brightness (B&W)
-
Adjusts the brightness of black & white images in 11 levels when [B&W] is selected for [Color Mode].
The lower the number the lighter the image becomes; the higher the number the darker the image becomes.
- Image Quality
The following image quality (resolution) levels are available.
Auto
Select this mode to scan documents at optimal resolution according to their paper size.
Documents are scanned in [Better] mode when the length is longer than 148 mm/5.83 in. (A6 portrait), and in [Best] mode when shorter than 148 mm/5.83 in. (A6 portrait). In addition, in [Auto] mode, the resolution is automatically determined by the length of the document.
Therefore, the quality of the saved images may vary depending on the orientation of the document that is inserted in iX100.
For example, the image quality is automatically set to [Better] when you insert an A5 size document in the feeding section of iX100 in portrait orientation. The image quality is automatically set to [Best] when you load the document in landscape orientation.
Normal
Select this mode to scan documents quickly.
Better
Select this mode to scan documents in high quality.
Best
Select this mode to scan documents in higher quality than [Better].
- Scanning Side
The following scan sides are available.
Simplex Scan
Scans only one side of the document.
- Feed
Select a feeding method for scanning.
Normal Scan
Scans documents that are placed on the feed guide of iX100 at a time.
Continuous Scan
Scans documents continuously.
Select this feeding method to scan a number of documents that is larger than the number of documents that can be placed on the feed guide of iX100 in order to be fed.
When [Continuous Scan] is selected, a message appears asking you whether to continue scanning or not after completing the scan of a document that you inserted in iX100.
When the document is inserted in iX100, scanning resumes automatically.
To end the scan, tap the [Exit] button, or press the [Scan/Stop] button on iX100.
- [Skip blank page] checkbox
Select this checkbox to remove blank pages from the output images automatically.
For example, if you specify "Duplex Scan" to scan a document with contents on only one side, only the image on this side will be saved because this option removes blank pages (the other side).
- [Reduce bleed-through] checkbox
Select this checkbox to reduce bleed-through on document where text and/or illustrations can bleed or seep through to the other side.
ATTENTIONSelecting this checkbox may produce image data where:
colors of the marked section(s) are faded
the marked section(s) disappear
the lines are thinner than in the original
Paper
- Paper size
You can set the paper sizes that are available for scanning with iX100.
The following paper sizes are available:

ATTENTIONWhen you select an option other than [Auto], insert each document at the left end of the feeding section of iX100.
File size
- Compression rate
Adjusts the compression rate in five levels when an item other than [B&W] is selected for [Color Mode].
The larger this value is, the higher the compression rate becomes, and noise in the image is more visible.
On the contrary, the smaller the value is, the lower the rate becomes, and the noise is less visible.
Destination
- ScanSnap folder
Set as the default destination for saving scanned images.
- Specify destination
The [Specify destination] screen appears where you can save the file in.
ATTENTIONFor Android 11 or later, scanned images cannot be saved in the destination that you specified.
To save a scanned image file in a folder other than [ScanSnap folder], move the file to the folder.
For details, refer to Moving a File to Another Folder (the [File List] Screen or the Folder Screen with the ScanSnap Sync Function Set to On) or Moving the File to Another Folder (the [Preview] Screen).
When the ScanSnap Sync function is set to on, a file is not synced if the file was received by setting [Destination] to a folder other than [ScanSnap folder].
