Troubleshooting
- If nothing happens when you try to scan, check that the pen is connected to the PC.
- Tips to improve the scanning
- Make sure both the supporting legs on the pen touch the paper.
- Avoid tilting the pen too much towards the paper.
- Pay attention to where you aim when you start and stop the scanning.
- Try to minimise the rotation of the pen during the scanning.
- If the pen has difficulties scanning, moving the pen somewhat slower can improve the
result.
- Avoid exposure to direct sunlight when using the pen.
- Text printed on very glossy paper or poorly printed text is difficult for the pen to read.
Translate
In
Translation
mode you scan text with C-Pen 20 and quickly and easily get the translation
of the text. You can also type the text for translation.
Note that the translation suggestions not only will be the exact translations but also similar
wordings and derivations. When a word has two different meanings, this can result in
some of the translation suggestions lacking a connection to the original word.
