Scanner

Abstract

The invention provides a scanner which is provided with a network connection unit for connecting the scanner to a network, a scanning module unit for scanning a file and generating a scanning bit message, a storage unit for storing all information of the scanner, an operating interface unit for inputting an instruction to enable the scanner to operate, and a display unit for displaying the information of the scanner, wherein the operating interface unit comprises a time setting unit for setting time information, and a printing piece setting unit for setting a number of printing pieces of the scanning bit message, transmitting the scanning bit message to a printer for printing and directly printing the set number of printing pieces. The scanner integrates multiple functions of setting the time, setting the address, setting the number of printing pieces and the like; relatively high user experience is achieved; and the use efficiency of the scanner is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of scanners, and in particular relates to a scanner integrating time setting, number of copies setting and address setting. Background technique [0002] A scanner is an image capture device that converts an image into a digital format that a computer can display, edit, store, and output, such as JPEG, JPG, TIFF, MTIFF, or PDF. Scanners are used in a wide range of applications, such as combining art graphics and photo scanning into documents; scanning printed text into word processing software to avoid retyping; scanning fax documents into database software or word processing software for storage ; and adding images to multimedia, etc. With the popularity and pervasiveness of Internet networks in office environments, network scanner devices that share one of the single devices between networks have become more popular and popular. The early scanners consisted of scanning heads, control circuits and mechanical compon...

[0005] However, in the prior art, the network scanner is only an image capture and image output tool with a single function, which is far from satisfying the convenience, high efficiency, high quality, information preservation, paperless operation, and electronicization of the network scanner in the modern office process. Jobs, electronic documents, and paper files need to be quickly converted and converted into high-definition. Although there are multi-function office machines that combine fax, photocopying, printing, and scanning, they have multiple functions, but their volume is much larger than that of traditional scanners, and their manufacturing costs are also lower. High, and the fax function can only be completed with the help of a telephone line, and both the sender and the receiver need to assign their own telephone numbers

On a traditional fax machine, when the other party needs multiple printouts, after receiving the scanned digital message, an additional peripheral device needs to be used for copying or setting operations, and it is impossible to send multiple documents at a time according to the needs of the recipient
