How to use

Select desired output format (JPEG, TIFF, PDF, etc.) and start scanning; the scanner captures both sides in a single pass and processes images with crop/deskew and enhancement routines. If the scanner detects overlapping pages, the ultrasonic multi-feed detection will alert the user.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, use the SmartOffice PS406U Plus with documents free of staples and large clips, keep the ADF clean from dust and feed mixed batches with similar sizes when possible. Use the included DocTWAIN drivers for best compatibility with document management and imaging software.
