Abstract
Scanner fault recovery in an electronic reprographic system includes monitoring the scanner for faults and enabling deletion from memory any images corresponding to documents involved in the scanner fault. Once the images have been deleted, refeed instructions are displayed to the operator for refeeding the documents whose images were deleted. Upon document refeed, the documents are rescanned for completion of scanning of the job.
