Configurable Items in [Profile] (iX100)

Profile items that can be reconfigured in ScanSnap Connect Application are as follows:

File format

File format

You can specify the file format in which the scanned image is saved.

  • PDF

    Creates a PDF file (*.pdf) from the scanned image.

    Up to 1,000 pages can be created for a single PDF file.

  • JPEG

    Creates a JPEG file (*.jpg) from the scanned image.

    JPEG files are created for each page.

JPEG option

You can specify whether or not to use the [Save together] and [Save to photo album] options when [JPEG] is selected in [File format].

Save together

Set this option to on and perform a scan to handle the received JPEG files virtually as a single file.

By archiving those files into a single file in the [File List] screen or by doing the same thing in the folder screen with the ScanSnap Sync function set to on, you can save the file to a photo album or save it to the Files app and can preview the files archived into a single file one by one in the [Preview] screen.

ATTENTION

When the ScanSnap Sync function is set to on, a file is displayed as a folder instead of a file if the file was created by setting [Save together] to on and then uploaded to a cloud service. If you change the name of the folder on the client side of a cloud service, the folder may not be displayed as a file on ScanSnap Connect Application or ScanSnap Organizer.

Save to photo album

Set this option to on and perform a scan to save the received JPEG file to a photo album.

When this is the case, if you set [Automatic delete] to enable in System Preferences of ScanSnap Connect Application, the received file will not be displayed in the [File List] screen or in the folder screen with the ScanSnap Sync function set to on. When the ScanSnap Sync function is set to on, a file is not uploaded to a cloud service.

Save to the Files app

Set this option to on and perform a scan to save the received PDF file or JPEG file to the Files app.

When this is the case, if you set [Automatic delete] to enable in System Preferences of ScanSnap Connect Application, the received file will not be displayed in the [File List] screen or in the folder screen with the ScanSnap Sync function set to on. When the ScanSnap Sync function is set to on, a file is not uploaded to a cloud service.

ATTENTION

When setting the [Save to the Files app] option to on and when performing a scan, the [ScanSnap] folder which has no files inside is displayed in the Files app. If you delete the [ScanSnap] folder in the [Files] application, the ScanSnap Connect Application data will be deleted.

Filename

Filename

You can specify the format in which each file is automatically named when they are saved.

The date and time a scanned image is saved as a file or [Enter directly] can be selected for the format of the file name.

  • yyyy_MM_dd_HH_mm_ss

  • yyyyMMddHHmmss

  • yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss

  • MM_dd_yyyy_HH_mm_ss

  • MMddyyyyHHmmss

  • MM-dd-yyyy-HH-mm-ss

  • dd_MM_yyyy_HH_mm_ss

  • ddMMyyyyHHmmss

  • dd-MM-yyyy-HH-mm-ss

  • Enter directly

When [Enter directly] is selected, any character string can be specified for the file name in [Enter file name here].

Enter file name here

You can enter a file name of 80 characters or less.

This option is available when you select [Enter directly].

If no name is entered, the file is named as "untitled".

If the same name already exists, the file name will be changed to "filename_nnn". "nnn" is the serial number.

Scanning

ATTENTION

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

Automatically removes blank pages from the output images.

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

Reduces bleed-through on document where text and/or illustrations can bleed or seep through to the other side.

ATTENTION

Setting this option to on 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:

  • Auto

  • A4

  • A5

  • A6

  • B5 (JIS)

  • B6 (JIS)

  • PostCard

  • Business card

  • Letter

  • Legal

ATTENTION

When 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.

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.
