Add Patch Code

Patch Code: For scanners that support physical sorting, the Patch Code pull down contains All, T, 1, 2, 3, 4 or Toggle, 6, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15. For scanners without physical sorting, the pull down contains 1, 2, 3, T.

Delete patch image: Check if the image of the patch code should be deleted.

Destination, Message, and Seconds: If the scanner supports physical sorting (e.g. the Kodak i5x50S scanner), then the Destination field will list the trays supported by the scanner, and the Message field will be hidden. If the scanner does not support physical scanning, then the Destination drop-down will contain Pause and Continue and Stop, and the Message field will be displayed and enabled. If Pause and Continue is selected, then you must define the number of Seconds you want scanning to pause before the scanner restarts.

Sheets after the patch to sort: allows you to select which sheets of Destination you set up. This feature will only enable for physical sorting (e.g. Kodak i5x50S).

  • (none)

  • Specified Number: allows you to select an exact number of sheets from 1 to 99.

  • All Until This Patch: indicates every sheet of paper is sent to the Destination, up to the next sheet of paper when this rule's patch is detected.

Use this option if you have an unknown number of consecutive pages in your document set that you want to sort. In this case, obtain two patch sheets with this patch type, then place one patch sheet before the pages to sort and place the other patch sheet after the pages to sort,

  • All Following: indicates every sheet of paper after the patch sheet is sent to the destination, until the scanning session ends.

Sorting that is in progress will continue until finished. So if you have a rule to sort a specific number of sheets, and a second sorting rule is met before that number of sheets has been sorted, the second rule will be ignored.

Sorting will be terminated by any of the following events: Stop scanning, Multifeed that stops scanning or Jam the stops scanning.

Destination: the output location to deliver each sheet that this patch sorting rule is applied to.

Destination is available only when Sheets After the Patch to Sort is not (none).

 

OK: Add rule and close Add Patch Code dialog box

Cancel: Close Add Patch Code dialog box without adding rule.
