Patch tab (Kodak i800 scanner)

This information applies only to users of the Kodak i800 Scanners. This option is not available with Capture Pro Limited Edition.

The Patch tab provides choices of what patch type to recognize. One or more patches can be selected at a time. The type of patch recognized is returned in the image header.  See the Kodak publication A-61599,Patch Code Information for Kodak Document Scannersfor complete information.

Enable patch — enables the patch code reader. Must be checked to enable any other options on this tab.

Level 2 patch — creates a new document (whether it reads your document with a patch on it or a Level 2 patch sheet).

Level 3 patch — creates a new batch (whether it reads your document with a patch on it or a Level 3 patch sheet).

Transfer patch - assigns a patch level to the next document (after the Transfer patch sheet).  Select one of the following options from the drop-down list:

• As Level 2

• As Level 3

The Transfer patch will be treated as Level 0.

Featurepatch -   Patch Types 1, 4 and 6 can be used by the scanning application for post-scan image control (they are not used for image addressing). For example, use these patch types for workflow control or changing between black and white and color/grayscale imaging.   

Toggle patch - use the drop-down list to select which patch heads/readers you would like to use. Each patch head/reader can be turned on and off independently. The default is for all patch heads/readers to be turned on.   This option is only available when the scanner is in Image Address mode.  The options are:

• Disabled

• Both sides

• Front side

Patch Confirmation Tone - the confirmation tone signals that the scanner has recognized a patch. The default is no confirmation tone.
