Version 1.30.0.4863 (Service Update 6)

Added features:

1. The [Color Distinction] category has been added to the [Automatic Color Detection] settings.
   When [Ignore Background Color] is enabled, a document printed on a background color paper can be processed as a monochrome document.
   
   
   
   
2. The interface of [Background Pattern Removal] has been changed from switch buttons to the slider bar.

Improvements:

1. Accuracy of detecting barcodes in documents where two or more barcodes exist has been improved.
2. “Device Stage” feature has been removed from the installer to reduce its size, and thereby the download time is shortened (Device Stage is not included in the installer for fi-5950, fi-6800, fi-6400, fi-6770, fi-6750S, fi-6670, or fi-5530C2).
3. [Accuracy] in the [Priority] settings of [Cropping] - [Automatic Size] settings has been enhanced, aiming for reducing possibility of cropping failure caused by vertical streaks on the image (The [Priority] settings are not available in fi-6750S, fi-6110 or fi-65F).
4. Some descriptions in Arabic or in Russian have been revised.
5. The window to select a scanner has been added to the Software Operation Panel. The scanner to configure can be selected during startup of Software Operation Panel when two or more scanners are connected.
6. [Vertical Streak Detection] displays a popup balloon from Error Recovery Guide Tool when vertical streaks are detected (fi-7280 / fi-7180 / fi-7260 / fi-7160 only).

Version 1.21.0.4179 (Service Update 5)

Added features:

1. Added [Target Pages] and [Margin] settings to [Blank Page Detection], whereby the target pages of the detection can be selected (except fi-65F).
   
   

   1.1. The [Target Pages] allows you to select whether index-tabbed pages will be included
   in the target of the detection.
   Note: To use this feature, go to [Configuration] > [Image Processing] and set
   [Index Tab] to [Output].

   which will not be screened for the blank page detection.

   
   
   
   
2. Added [Automatic] feeding feature to [Continuous Scan], whereby the scan starts automatically after loading documents on the ADF chute (except fi-65F).
   
   
3. Added the feature to adjust image size when outputting JPEG image.
   
   

Improvements:

1. [Deskew Method] can be also set from [Normal dialog].
   
   Configurations in the [Normal dialog] can be saved to a profile so that you can select a different [Deskew Method] for each document.
   Note: To use this feature, go to [Configuration] > [Image Processing] and set [Deskew Method] to [Add to Scan Settings].
   
   
2. Renamed [Background Color] in [Background] of [Deskew] to [Document Color].
   
   
3. Whether the Error Recovery Guide runs automatically during Windows® startup or not can be selected during installation of PaperStream IP driver. To exclude Error Recovery Guide from the Windows® startup, clear the checkbox for [Error Recovery Guide tool].
   
   
4. Setup.exe runs automatically after running (extracting) the compressed execution file of the driver installer.

Corrected issues:

1. Fixed the following defect that a part of image is not outputted or unnecessary image is outputted in flatbed scanning (It doesn’t occur in fi-65F):
   - The edge of image is cut by cropping.
   - The inside of the document is cut by cropping.
   - Cropping is out of place when running [Deskew].
2. Fixed the defect that an application may end abnormally when modules of PaperStream IP are loaded.
