This document is the operator's guide for the M4099D/fi-4990 Image Scanner Endorser. It provides specifications such as printing method, maximum number and size of printed characters, and printing area.
The Endorser option adds printable characters such as letters, numbers and symbols to the backside of scanned documents. It uses a thermal ink‑jet print head and can print up to 30 characters per line with adjustable character size and pitch.
The manual explains how to enable the Endorser, set the initial print count, reset the counter, adjust the printing position, and manage the ink‑counter life. All settings are accessed through the scanner’s Setup mode using the operator panel.
