units of measure

With this option you can select millimeters, centimeters, or inches as your units of measurement. See units of measurement.

color balance

This option tells your scanner software whether to display color values in Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow or Red, Green, and Blue when setting Type of Original options.

paper lists show

This option tells the scanner software whether to display paper sizes (dimensions) or paper titles (such as E-0, A3) where possible.

use quick select lists

This option determines the behavior of your interface in relation to making settings for Type of original, Input size, Output size, Scale, Printer, Accounting, and Scanner. The default dialog order is that you first access a specific Setup dialog and from there a button will take you to the easy-to-use list dialog. With Quick select lists selected, you reverse this order: your interface first presents the list dialogs with current predefined and standard values for the options. From the predefined value lists, you can then choose to go to the specific (default) Setup dialog by pressing the tool button. tool button

Use this option if you primarily use the scanner software with standard and customized predefinitions. Leave the option empty if you primarily need to make specific adjustments and settings for your different copy jobs and usually bypass the lists with predefined values.

You can see below the Input size button behavior with and without the Quick select lists option selected: Quick select lists ON (first) and OFF (second). The Tool button on the Input Size dialog will activate the Input Size Setup dialog, and the Input size button in the Input Size Setup dialog will activate the Input Size dialog.

print settings

Checking this option tells the scanner software to print out an overview of all your settings together with the copy.

enable reprint

In the Copy Settings dialog box is a Reprint button, which can be enabled or disabled here. If Reprint is enabled, it will reprint the last image printed. This is useful if you suddenly realize that you need more copies than you initially requested.

use account password

If this option is selected, the system administrator must set an administrator password. Thereafter, only the system administrator can create or change accounts and passwords on the system (or turn off this option). Other users must select an account and give the correct password for that account in order to use the system.

If this option is deselected, any account may be freely created or used by anyone, without giving a password.

paper series

You can determine which types of size presets you want to appear in the size preset list through the Setup Tab dialog.
