Table 3-5 lists the action types that are available from the Errors tab.

When used with a scanning application that requests a bitonal image, VRS requests a 

grayscale image from the scanner. VRS analyzes the grayscale image and produces a 

clean, clear, bitonal image that is passed to the application. This means that, when 

used with VRS, the scanner never actually produces a bitonal image. Historically, 

scanners run at their optimum speed when scanning in bitonal mode and more slowly 

when scanning grayscale or color images. This has changed in the last few years, 

because nearly all scanners now scan in grayscale mode as fast as they scan in bitonal 

mode. In fact, some scanners can even scan in color mode as fast as they do in 

grayscale or bitonal modes.

Auto Deskew Failure The image does not contain sufficient horizontal or vertical lines to 

perform a correct deskew. Use the Skew panel to make a manual 
correction. Refer to Using the Skew Panel on page 80.

Ignore Error

VRS does not notify you of the error or take any action to correct it. VRS 
accepts the image “as is,” passes it to the scanning application, and resumes 
the scanning session. 

Return Error

VRS notifies you of the error, but does not send the image to the scanning 
application. The scan session is then terminated.

Auto Resolve

VRS opens the Auto Resolve Manager in automatic mode. As a result, the 
scanner automatically attempts to retry the scan until the user resolves an 
equipment or paper transport impediment, such as a paper jam or out of 
paper condition. Refer to Using the Auto Resolve Manager on page 61.

Interactive

The VRS Interactive Viewer opens and displays the image in the VRS 
Interactive Viewer, so that you can apply new settings to the current image.
