How to scan pages from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL scanner?
In This Topic
If you want to scan pages from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL scanner, you should set the scan input source (using
EsclDevice.ScanInputSource property) to the EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithoutDuplex or EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithDuplex value.
Supported scan input sources can be obtained using
EsclDevice.GetSupportedScanInputSources method.
Here is an example that demonstrates how to acquire images from automatic document feeder of eSCL device:
/// <summary>
/// Acquires images from the automatic document feeder (ADF) of eSCL device.
/// </summary>
public void AcquireImagesFromDocumentFeederOfEsclDevice()
{
// create eSCL device manager
using (Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager deviceManager = new Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDeviceManager())
{
// open eSCL device manager
deviceManager.Open();
// wait while the eSCL device manager searches for eSCL devices
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(deviceManager.DeviceSearchTimeout);
// get count of eSCL devices
int deviceCount = deviceManager.Devices.Count;
if (deviceCount == 0)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Devices are not found.");
return;
}
// select the first eSCL device
Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclDevice device = deviceManager.Devices[0];
// open eSCL device
device.Open();
// get names of supported scan input sources
Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource[] supportedScanInputSources = device.GetSupportedScanInputSources();
foreach (Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource supportedScanSource in supportedScanInputSources)
{
if (supportedScanSource == Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithoutDuplex ||
supportedScanSource == Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclScanInputSource.FeederWithDuplex)
{
// specify that images must be acquired from automatic document feeder of eSCL device
device.ScanInputSource = supportedScanSource;
break;
}
}
Vintasoft.EsclImageScanning.EsclAcquiredImage acquiredImage;
do
{
try
{
// acquire image from eSCL device
acquiredImage = device.AcquireImageSync();
// if image is received
if (acquiredImage != null)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Image is acquired.");
}
// if image is not received
else
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Scan is completed.");
break;
}
}
catch (System.Exception ex)
{
System.Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Scan is failed: {0}", ex.Message));
break;
}
}
// while image is acquired
while (acquiredImage != null);
// close eSCL device
device.Close();
// close eSCL device manager
deviceManager.Close();
}
System.Console.ReadLine();
}
