Use the SMA ScanMaster 0 to digitize oversize items (e.g., posters, technical drawings, and maps) and multi-page bound items (e.g., books, theses, ledgers, pamphlets, and scrapbooks). The scan workflow in Batch Scan Wizard has three main steps: Scan Job Setup; Scan Operation; Image Export. See the Batch Scan Wizard Manual for more guidance. Scanner operators are not permitted to use the SMA Scan Master 0 without prior training from the Project Manager or Digitization Coordinator. Scanner operators should perform scanner calibration tests on a regular basis.
