The KIC scanner by the Reserves shelves is operable entirely via touchscreen
The file type of any scan defaults to a searchable PDF with certain quality and color options
You can change the file type, quality, and coloration of the file using the options on the right side of the touchscreen
Set your book as close to the center of the scanning pad as possible, and be sure that at least some portion of your item is caught by the horizontal laser line near the bottom of the pad
For thick books that don't lie flat, the bookrest can be converted into a V-shaped cradle using folding legs under each plate
You can send your file as an e-mail attachment to yourself, download directly to your own USB storage, or KIC will host it temporarily on the cloud and provide a QR Code for access
Remember to send or download your file before you end your session!
Due to attachment size limitations, larger files may be broken into multiple sections, which may lead to incorrect ordering of pages
To avoid this, limit the number of pages scanned per session to fewer than 20
To scan more, end your session and start a new one
Many PDF apps allow you to combine multiple files into one on your own computer
If attempting to send a large file as an e-mail attachment, the system may seem to freeze but will usually complete after a delay
