Toshiba 281C Double-Side Scanning and File Format

ejunussov · 05-02-2008, 04:50 PM

Is there any way to scan double-sided pages in Toshiba 281C? There only seems to be an option for single-side page scanning.

Another question I have is regarding selection of the default scan file format. My machine always defaults on tiff. Is there any way to default on pdf?

Thank you in advance,

Ed

You simple press USER FUNCTIONS button, then selected the USER tab. Press the SCAN icon. There on the right you will see 2 sided scan. Select BOOK to scan both sides of an original.

If you are scanning from a template let me know and I will tell you how to modify the template in Top Access.

Also, if you need the user's manual, request it on my forum at thecopierguru.com and I will attach it to a private message to you.

Thank you very much, it worked.

Would you know how to make pdf the default format when scanning?

Shut your machine down. Hold down the 0 and 8 keys at the same time while you turn the copier on and keep them held until you hear a beep then let to of the keys. You will be in adjust mode.

Enter 219 and press start.
Change the 0 to a 1 and press start.
Hold down the energy saver button and keep it held until the machine automatically turns itself off (you will hear a series of beeps while it is shutting down).

Adjust mode is a powerful tool that should only be used by a trained and qualified technician; so what ever you do, don't experiment. Only follow the directions I gave.

Thank you very much TheCopierGuru! The code worked fine. The only deviation I had was that my JPEG option is now greyed out. Is it an intended consequence? I never use JPEG for scanning, but in case I want to go back, is there a code for that?

The code that you set causes the default to be PDF when you are in black and white mode. I believe if you put your copier in full color mode your jpeg icon will be available.

You are right, TheCopierGuru. Thanks a lot!
