Non-standard size originals
The scanner of the Océ TDS800 automatically detects the width of the inserted
original. For DIN sizes, for example, it detects whether the width is A0, A1,
A2, A3, A4, 500 mm, or 700 mm. The Océ TDS800 system uses a memory
table that contains all standard width - standard length combinations to predict
the length of the original. The scanner also measures the real length of each
original while it is transferred through the scanner.
Note: When you scan thick, thin or damaged originals or originals in a carrier
sheet, it is recommended to use the output at the rear side of the scanner to
ensure correct delivery (see ‘Define settings for the next original’ on page 61).
The scan width
To prevent the loss of information when you scan a non-standard original, you
can select the ‘non-standard’ scan width. The scanned width will then be larger
than the original width. It is also possible to define the scanned width and
length yourself.
▼ Define the scan width
1 Open the ‘Sheet’ card in the ‘Original’ section.
2 Press ‘Scan width’ to select the required setting:
■ Standard. This option must be used to scan a standard-size original.
■
Non-standard. This option can be used to scan a non-standard original. The
scanned width will be larger than the original width (to the next larger,
standard size), to prevent information loss.
■ Numeric. Define the scan width with the arrow keys or the numeric keys.
