Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Benefits of Three Independent US Sensors Automobile Insurance Form example Bob, Please review The left Ultrasonic sensor can be configured completely OFF or to ignore only specific areas of a document. In this case, set to ignore the area of the document that contains the image of the car where clients tape the photo to the page. The middle Ultrasonic sensor is configured to detect multifeed documents. No multifeed detected on this example therefore scanning would continue normally. The right Ultrasonic sensor also has been configured to detect any multifeed documents. In this case a yellow sticky note is detected and the scanner can be setup to notify the operator and stop scanning and/or pause scanning in order to immediately take corrective action. Important information under the sticky note is not lost. Note: General use of 3 US sensors example. If the documents have might have bar code labels, post-it notes or photos consistently in the same position then use this this function prior to using iMFF.

In Action and Examples Fujitsu fi-5950 Intelligent MultiFeed Function for Advanced Ultrasonic Double-Feed Detection Control

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Manual mode with Retain Image feature Use this mode when you want to continue scanning, while checking for overlapping items every time a Multifeed error is detected. Dental Form document with anticipated address label on the top portion of the document, however the two photographs were not anticipated Easily press the OK button to accept or press the Rescan button to reject and continue Configuration:Operation:

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Dental Records with Labels & Photos (Random patterns) Labels and Random Photos example Ideally these example Dental Insurance forms would have been printed with the Dentists office address but assume this area was not printed or they had moved. Printing these forms is expensive and not wise to waste these documents Dr. Scott Steiner License #A E. Arques Ave Sunnyvale, CA The Ultrasonic Multifeed Detection has been configured to not detect multifeeds in the area where the address sticker is located, while still detecting multifeeds in the rest of the left Ultrasonic Sensor area. Before & after photos For the photographs, they could cover critical data underneath where attached to the page so we want the operator to verify this at scan time

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination of length and position) Use this mode when you scan many sheets in a fixed format; for example, when every sheet has the same size item attached at the same location. Example of a long EKG strip cut into three sections then taped onto a letter-sized page Easily press the OK button to accept or press the Rescan button to reject and continue Operation:Configuration:

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG) Auto mode 1 (Bypass by combination) Meanwhile on the top, some middle portions and the bottom of this page Ultrasonic Detection would still reliably catch an unintentional multifeed (sticky note, etc.) The electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG) is used extensively in the diagnosis of heart disease, from congenital heart disease in infants to myocardial infarction and myocarditis in adults. Several different types of electrocardiogram exist. Fixed format of three EKG strips always taped to pages to be set to ignore intentional overlapping items

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Auto mode 2 (Bypass by length) Use this mode when you scan multiple sheets, each having different-size overlapping items at different locations. Cash register receipts taped to letter-sized paper. Can be used for high volume scanning to capture signatures on receipts for retail business Easily press the OK button to accept or press the Rescan button to reject and continue Operation:Configuration:

Fujitsu fi-5950 scanner Intelligent MultiFeed Function for advanced Ultrasonic control Fujitsu iMFF Main Menu Receipt Scanning for Point of Sale/Retail Auto mode 2 (Bypass by maximum length) Upon detection of a true multifeed or longer overlapping items the Ultrasonic sensor would detect and alert the operator for intervention or to memorize the new pattern The volume of Point of Sale receipt tape produced daily by Retail businesses, restaurants and stores in general can prove to be overwhelming. Capturing the receipt with a customers signature authorizing charges on their credit cards helps to safeguard against legal disputes and assist in better customer service overall. The first receipt was scanned and obviously an overlap was detected. With iMFF the scanner memorized this length and allows bypass of the same length or shorter Since the second receipt is shorter than the first memorized length, a MultiFeed is not detected.
