Operator’s Guide
IntroductionThank you for purchasing the ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM Color Image Scanner.
ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM is a color image scanner and office applications. It is a complete office
solution designed to improve your productivity and to solve your office scanning problems. The
ScanSnap product has the following features.
■ Converting paper documents into PDFs by pressing a single botton!
You can turn the documents that clutter up your desktop into PDFs, and manage and
archive them on your computer.
The ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM can also automatically recognize the content of docu-
ment, color or black & white, so scanned image files can be made smaller when scan-
ning documents containing a mixture of color and black & white pages. You can also
have the scanner automatically remove blank pages in documents in order to further
reduce the size of files.
■ Effortless scanning!
The ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM can scan double-sided color documents of A4 or Letter
size at a speed of 15 sheets/minute (when Scanning quality is set to Normal (Fastest),
Color mode is set to Auto Color Detection, and Compression rate is set to 3). (*1)
■ Small desktop footprint!
Having a footprint smaller than the size of A4 or Letter paper, the ScanSnap scanner
can be left on your desk all the time.
(*1) - Depending on the document, the scanning speed may become slower in "B&W"
(Black&White) mode (due to the conversion of data scanned in color to
monochrome data).
Example: Scanning color brochures in "B&W" mode. Scanning quality: Normal
(Fastest), Compression rate: 3, about 12 sheets/minute.
- When "Allow automatic blank page removal" or "Allow automatic image deskew" is
enabled, scanning speed may become slower.
(*2) - ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM does not support the TWAIN and ISIS standards.
This document describes how to handle ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM and the basic operation methods.
Before you start using ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM, be sure to thoroughly read this manual to ensure
correct use.
