Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a method for automatically identifying a scan area by a scanner is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of scanning an original comprising an object, identifying the original to establish a location and a profile of the object in the original, displaying a preview window corresponding to the original, wherein a location and a profile of a confined area is exactly the location and the profile of the object, receiving a framed area selected from the preview window by a user, wherein a portion of the framed area beyond the confined area is automatically removed to generate a scan area, and scanning the scan area. The present invention can also extend to a method for selecting a scan area by a user and a scanner with a feature of automatically identifying a scan area.

Abstract: An error reporting and correcting method applied to a peripheral. The peripheral can be connected to the user terminal via the network. In the error reporting and correcting method, an error record file is generated immediately after an error operation occurs to the peripheral. The error record file is uploaded via the network by the user host, and a correction program corresponding to the error file is downloaded to the user host via the network. After being downloaded, the correction program for automatically performing error correction is automatically installed in the user host.

Abstract: A method of providing the inputting units of the scanner with a foolproof function. Initially, while a specific inputting unit is activated, such as a push button being pushed, the connection between the operation of the scanner and other inputting units is terminated. This terminated connection is not regained until the specific action, which corresponds to the specific inputting unit, finishes. Moreover, an “activation” message can be directly displayed on the scanner while this specific inputting unit is activated, and while the scanner is processing some specific action, this action can be terminated with the function of the scanner and the connection between all inputting units regained as soon as this specific inputting unit is activated again. For any scanner with the foolproof function, while a specific inputting unit is activated, not only a corresponding specific action is performed but also the connection between the performing specific action and all inputting units is controlled.

Abstract: A backlight apparatus includes a guiding element and a light source disposed at one side of the guiding element. There is a plurality of reflective patterns at the bottom surface of the guiding element. Each reflective pattern is composed of at least one concavity and at least one convexity. The concavity is disposed at the rim around the convexity. As the light source emits light to the guiding element, the reflective area is increased by the concavity of the reflective pattern for increasing the reflecting effect and for distributing the brightness more uniformly, and thereby higher brightness and uniformity can be achieved.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for forming microstructure optical elements. The method comprises providing a mold and forming a cavity in the mold according to the shape of microstructure optical elements. The cavity is formed a sealed space, which is vacuumed through an extraction opening arranged near the end of the cavity. Filling material into the cavity is to be formed the microstructure optical elements. Due to an extraction opening arranged near the end of filling process, the filling process is smooth so as to improve the element quality, manufacturing efficiency and transferability.
