I've been testing this on a Fujitsu fi-6130, and have been very impressed with the ease of use. I've run into the following stumbling blocks, I was wondering if the following enhancements could be considered:

The scanners I am using seem to create a blank first page, then scan the document. I assume this is to allow a separator page, can an option be included to ignore the 1st blank page created? (I need an additional option to our default scanning program, this program seems to already cater for this. Feed in 3 pages, the scanner notes it scans 4 pages, however the software ignores the 1st blank page created, and creates a scan of the 2 pages).
The default override options are relatively easy to override, and default to the US "Legal" settings. I am using A4 as a default, is there a way to define and save the default settings more effectively?

Thanks.

Dear user, thank you for your suggestions for iCopy.

You are the first one to report this situation in which a blank page is added to the document. I think that you should check in your scanner driver settings for an option regarding the first page. There might also be some problem in the interaction between the scanner and iCopy. I suggest you make a sample scan of a 2-3 page document (without any sensitive data) and attach here the output document, together with the icopy.log file that you can find either in the iCopy executable folder or in C:\Users\<Your username>\AppData\Local\iCopy.

Here I don't understand your request. Do you mean that you would like to have A4 as a default and instead iCopy defaults to US Legal? By design, after you complete a scan with certain settings, iCopy stores those settings for the next scans. If this doesn't work, then there is a bug, and I'd be glad if you could help me diagnosing the problem. First, try to delete the icopy.settings file (if present) in the iCopy executable folder AND in C:\Users\<Your username>\AppData\Local\iCopy, make a scan with the desired settings, and then restart iCopy. The settings should be the same as in the last scan.

Thank you very much for your help.
