Kyocera TA-3551ci showing memory full when scanning

[BillyCarpenter]

compression is done on the hhd so that's not an issue.

This is where my lack of knowledge holds me back. My friend who is the computer guru and IT person at the account told me that it uses more memory after I suggested using high compression pdf. I'm gonna have to go over to the account and try it myself.

Again, thanks for the help.

Just heard back from the IT guy and he said the documents are a mixture of B&W and color. Had him set resolution to 300x300. Still defaulted to color. Waiting to hear back if the problem persists.

You can also reduce the memory load by setting the default to auto color. This reduces the amount of memory used due to the machine only storing pages that have color as color, pages with just BW are scanned as BW with a much lower memory load. Just as a heads up, the machine will display a memory full if the quota for the folder you are scanning to has been exceeded. Had a case with a state agency with the same problem, the network admins had set a quota on the folder the users scanned to and until documents were removed from the folder to reduce it below the quota it throw memory full on the machine. Have your IT guy check if there is a quota placed on the scan to folder.

Change the print driver. Really.

That's why I love this site. That's very useful. Thank you very much.

Nope Your IT friend doesn't know copiers work good luck

Compression is done on the hhd not using the ram memory that's why small machines with no hhd can't do it and that feature is unavailable.

PS AUTO COLOR creates a file 4 times larger either in color or b|w docs
even a black doc file is huge

Also set it for text

I've been able to resole a couple by switching to KX driver.

You've got me convinced. Now I will convince him. Thanks.

It's a scanning problem not a printing issue

Dude, how can you be so smart about this stuff and not know a damn thing about politics?

I kid. I kid. You've been very helpful.
