VRS Installation Guide 1

Chapter 1

VRS Overview

Introduction

This guide gives you instructions for installing VirtualReScan (VRS).

Using VRS with Your Scanner

Since its first release, VRS has grown to accommodate a wide range of certified

scanners. This was accomplished initially with two distinct versions of VRS:

Hardware VRS and Software VRS. Now there is only one version of VRS to

accommodate throughput for a range of scanners, including Personal, Professional,

Low-Volume, Mid-Volume, and High-Volume.

Personal, Professional, and Low-Volume scanners are designed to support low to

moderate throughput. Mid-Volume and High-Volume production scanners are

specifically designed for large numbers of scans per day. For this reason, production

scanners are equipped with the Kofax SCSI driver, which supports heavy scan

workloads while maintaining rated speed.

Table 1-1. Scanners Supported by VRS

Scanner Throughput (Pages Per Minute)

Personal Less than 10 PPM

Professional 11-40 PPM

Low-Volume Up to 59 PPM

Mid-Volume 60 - 90 PPM

High-Volume More than 90 PPM

Chapter 1

2VRS Installation Guide

Your VRS package will indicate whether you have VRS for Personal, Professional,

Low-Volume, Mid-Volume, or High-Volume scanners.

VRS Scanners: Certified vs. Non-Certified

When a scanner is certified for VRS, it goes through a rigorous testing process during

which the best default settings are identified and selected. For this reason, we

recommend that you use VRS only with certified scanners. You can use the product

page on the Kofax Web site to view the list of VRS-certified scanners. In addition to

listing the scanner name and manufacturer, the VRS product page includes the

following information:

• Driver used for VRS 3.5 (TWAIN, ISIS, or Kofax SCSI)

• Black or white background (black borders are necessary for automatic

cropping)

• Additional memory required for optimal performance (if applicable)

• Interface certified by VRS (SCSI, USB, or FireWire)

VRS is also capable of working with certain non-certified “compatible” scanners,

provided that they have been configured with the Kofax Source Manager (KSM). It is

important to be aware that you may experience less than optimal image quality when

using a non-certified scanner with VRS. Not every scanner can be used with VRS. To

be configured as compatible with VRS, a non-certified scanner must meet the

following requirements:

• Ability to output a 256-level grayscale image as a single image.

• Provide a TWAIN driver or an ISIS driver. While VRS works best with an ISIS

driver, it also supports some scanners with TWAIN drivers.

Note For more information about using non-certified scanners with VRS, refer to

Configuring Non-Certified Scanners on page 31.

VRS Component Installers

During the standard VRS installation, you will be prompted to select the name of your

scanner from a list of certified scanners. The VRS installer uses the name to identify

the appropriate drivers to install for your scanner. Because the list of VRS-certified

scanners is updated on a regular basis, some certified scanners may not appear on the

list that you see during the installation. In this case, you may need to download a

“VRS Component Installer” update to obtain the drivers required for your VRS-

certified scanner. To locate the appropriate VRS Component Installer for your

scanner, select the VRS product link from the Kofax Web site Support pages.
