65 results about "Duplex scanning" patented technology

Duplex scanning is a feature of some computer scanners, and multifunction printers (MFPs) that support duplex printing. A duplex scanner can automatically scan a sheet of paper on both sides. Scanners without this capability can only scan both sides of a sheet of paper by reinserting it manually the other way up.

Document processing method and apparatus

According to this invention, a document processing method of documenting image data obtained by double-sided scanning of an original containing a single-sided printed part and a double-sided printed part includes a blank determination step of determining on the basis of the image data whether the lower surface of an original is blank, and a documentation step of, when the lower surface is determined in the blank determination step to be blank, saving image data corresponding to the upper surface of the original as document information together with a single-sided printing attribute, and when the lower surface is determined in the blank determination step not to be blank, saving image data corresponding to the two surfaces of the original as document information together with a double-sided printing attribute.

Duplex automatic document feeding apparatus and a duplex document feeding method

A duplex automatic document feeder (DADF) includes a pickup roller, an image reading unit, and a discharge roller, and includes first, second, third, and fourth document feeding paths. When performing duplex scanning in the DADF, the document is fed from the pickup roller to the image reading unit through the second document feeding path, and then the document passes through the third document feeding path, which is a closed-loop feeding path, to reverse feed the document back to the image reading unit, so that both sides of the document are scanned. Next, the document is discharged by the discharge roller. When discharged, the front side of the document faces down corresponding to the document as stacked in a paper supply tray. Accordingly, an additional feeding path for rearrangement of the discharged document can be omitted, thereby improving duplex efficiency.

Scanning apparatus

A duplex scanning apparatus capable of switching a scanning background includes a pair of glass plates, a pair of background boards pivoted to the glass plates and a driving mechanism. The glass plates are disposed in a frame and overlapped with each other. The two glass plates define two scanning areas face to face. A portion of the frame adjacent to an outer surface of the glass plate defines a first color area of the scanning background corresponding to the scanning area. One background board is positioned above one glass plate, and the other background board is positioned under the other glass plate and away from the one background board. Each background board defines a second color area of the scanning background corresponding to the scanning area. The driving mechanism mounted in the frame drives the background boards to turn over with respect to the corresponding glass plates.
