Reproducibility of the image data

Confirm that the image data scanned with the ScanSnap meets your requirements (for example, image reproducibility in size accuracy, fidelity, content, colors).

Text Recognition

● Depending on the status of the document (e.g. font, layout, blots) and the scanning resolution, text recognition may not be properly performed, or text recognition may take a long time.

When there are sections marked with a highlight pen, the color of the marked section may not be accurately reproduced depending on the color and density, or may result in a different color tone from the original. Depending on the color and the color density of the highlight pen and the way it was used, the marked sections may not be detected, or the keyword may not be properly set.

Disposing of the original document

Check the image data using the application where you transferred the image data to make sure that there are no missing parts before disposing of the original document scanned with the ScanSnap.

It is the responsibility of the customer to store and manage the scanned image, and dispose of the original document scanned with the ScanSnap.
