Restrict the settings

The scan sizes that the user can select can be restricted according to the functions of the target device.

On the [Scan Size] tab of the [Process] tab, right-click a scan size setting and select [Edit Display/Hide Properties] to display the scan size properties window.


Select the check boxes for the scan size settings to be displayed on the configuration screen of the device, and click [OK].

  • Auto Detect: Detects the size of the original automatically. Also, this detects the size of the first page of the original and applies the same size to all remaining pages.

  • Mixed Original Sizes: Detects the size of each page of the original that contains mixed page sizes.

  • Custom Size 1 / Custom Size 2: Displays defined custom sizes.

  • Other: Select the original size. The only scan sizes that can be used are the sizes the target device supports. If the device does not support the setting, the Scan Size window is displayed with Auto Detect selected. If the device does not support Auto Detect, A4 Landscape is selected.

[Scan Size] can be hidden on the screen. When this item is set to Hide, the [Scan Size] tab is not displayed on the Standard Operation Panel, and [Scan Size] on the [Scan Settings] window is grayed out on the Smart Operation Panel. The user cannot change the values of the scan settings that are configured in advance by the administrator in the Management Console.
