Abstract
A document holder is fed into a cassette scanning system. A first sensor that is set in the cassette scanning system detects whether the document holder is in the scanning system or not. Simultaneously, a second sensor is used to detect whether the document is inside the document holder or not. The scanning system is responsive to the first sensor and second sensor to drive the image sensor to capture the image of the document.
Claims10
A method for driving a scanning system, said scanning system having a document holder to hold a document, wherein said document holder having an opening for feeding said document into said document holder and said document holder can be fed into said scanning system, a first sensor being set in said scanning system to detect said document holder, a second sensor being set in said scanning system for detecting said document, a recognition region being formed on said document holder to recognize that said document being inside said document, said method comprising the steps of:
- feeding said document holder into said scanning system;
- and
