How to Use Patchcode Sheets
1
Print patchcode sheets on a printer. Print the patchcode sheets at their original size on paper
that is the same size as the image data.
Note
• Print [PATCH II (A4)] and [PATCH T (A4)] on A4 paper.
• Print [PATCH II (LTR)] and [PATCH T (LTR)] on LTR paper.
IMPORTANT
To copy a patchcode pattern to create a different size patchcode sheet, make sure to pay
attention to the following:
• Adjust the patchcode so that it fits into the effective area for detecting patchcode patterns.
• When copying a patchcode pattern, the copy should be the same size and print density as
the pattern on the original. Extremely dark or light copies may not be scanned correctly.
2
Insert the patchcode sheet in front of the document that you want to save as a separate file
before placing the documents on the scanner.
When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a patchcode sheet,
it creates a separate file for the document that comes after the patchcode
sheet. The image of this sheet can be saved or not, depending on the
application’s settings.
When the scanner recognizes this patchcode printed on a patchcode sheet,
it creates a separate file starting from the patchcode sheet. The image of this
sheet is saved, regardless of the application’s settings.
