2 Kodak Capture Software Installation Guide Introduction System requirements Software Kodak Capture Software is a software application that enables all functions of the following scanners, both simplex and duplex models: Kodak i1200 Series Scanners Kodak i30 and i40 Scanners Kodak i50, i60 and i80 Scanners Kodak i1300 Series Scanners Kodak i55 and i65 Scanners Kodak i150 and i160 Scanners Kodak i250, i260, i280 Scanners Kodak Digital Science 3520 Scanner Kodak 3590C Scanner Kodak 4500 Scanner Kodak i610, i620, i640, i660 Scanners Kodak i810, i820, i830 and i840 Scanners Kodak i1860 Scanner This guide provides hardware and software requirements as well as installation procedures for installing Kodak Capture Software. Information that is pertinent to a specific scanner will be noted. In addition to the current Kodak Scanners listed above, Capture Software also supports: Kodak Digital Science Scanner 1500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 2500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 3500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 3510 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 5500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 7500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 7520 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 9500 Kodak Digital Science Scanner 9520 Kodak Digital Science Scanner/Microimager 990 Kodak Imagelink 500 Scanner Kodak Imagelink 900 Scanner Kodak Imagelink 923 Scanner Following are the minimum software and hardware requirements to run Capture Software. All systems require Windows 2000 or Windows XP. NOTE: The 64-bit Windows operating system, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, is not supported. A January

3 Hardware Choosing the right processor is important. When the microprocessor is too slow, your PC cannot keep up with the scanner s speed, and overall productivity decreases. See the following table for the processor and memory requirements for optimal scanning in certain scanning modes C 4500 i1200 i30/i40 i1300 i50/i60/i80 i55/i65 i100 i200 i600 i810/i830 i820/i840 i1860 Required Hardware Pentium 1 GHz Pentium 1.5 GHz Pentium 2.0 GHz Pentium 2.5 GHz 128 MB of RAM 256 MB of RAM 512 MB of RAM Connections SCSI Controller Adaptec 2940 or 1542CP SCSI Controller Adaptec or IEEE-1394 (FireWire) Controller USB Controller NOTES: PC If you want to use the deskew, auto-crop, and auto-rotate features when color scanning in Capture Software, the fastest microprocessor available (currently the Pentium IV 2.5 GHz) is recommended. Specific memory requirements for i1200/i1300 Scanners - When scanning long documents (over 14 inches in length), 1 GB of memory is recommended for the best scanning performance. - For documents over 26 inches in length, 3 GB of memory is recommended. - When using advanced image processing features (such as auto orientation and background color smoothing) 1 GB of memory is recommended. 1 GB (<10 msec) hard disk. For color scanning with the i820, i840 or the i1860 Scanner, two (2) SCSI hard disk drives are recommended: one for the operating system and one for storing the scanned images. Much more disk space may be required for scanned image storage. Display monitor and graphic controller 2 A January 2007

4 Most high-quality displays and graphic controllers are acceptable. The display resolution should be set to at least 800 x For black-and-white scanning, the display monitor should be set to at least 256 Colors. For color scanning with the Kodak color scanners, set the display monitor to True Color (24 bit or 16 million colors). - For color scanning with the i660 Scanner, i820, i840 Scanner or the i1860 Scanner, an AGP (Advanced Graphics Processor) video card with 32 MB of video RAM is recommended. IEEE-1394 (FireWire) connection The i100, i200, i600 Series Scanner or i1860 Scanner should be the only item plugged into the IEEE-1394 (FireWire) card on the host computer. Use only the FireWire card and cable that is supplied with the scanner. SCSI connection An Adaptec 2940 controller is recommended. You can also use an Adaptec 1542CP controller. Newer SCSI cards such as the Adaptec or may also be used. For the i800 Series Scanners, an Adaptec SCSI controller or equivalent (Ultra-Wide2 SCSI) is required. USB connection USB Controller for the i30 or i40 Scanners and optionally i55 and i65 Scanners. A USB interface is required. Both USB 1.1 and 2.0 are supported. However to achieve scanner rated speeds, and to maximize scanner throughput, a USB 2.0 interface is required. USB Controller for the i1200 and i1300 Scanners. A USB 2.0 interface is required. USB 1.1 is not supported. Hardware Key A USB 1.1 or 2.0 interface for hardware key installation. NOTES: The USB hardware key can be installed on a USB hub used concurrently by other USB devices. A parallel/printer port (with DB-25 female connector) can be used for hardware key support upon request. Contact your local Kodak Service Representative for details. Before you begin Before installing Capture Software, verify the proper scanner and SCSI board, IEEE-1394 (FireWire) card setup or USB connection and configuration. For example, this can be done for the i260 Scanner by running the Scan Validation Tool from the Kodak>Document Imaging Program Group. A January

5 Accessing the Capture Software Setup dialog box To begin installation: 1. Start up Windows. 2.
