Scan

Ricoh Aficio MP1350

WHAT WE LIKED:

Color scanning capability that offers more diverse production scanning capabilities than those offered by rivals restricted to monochrome scanning functionality.

Color dropout capability allows users to remove unwanted backgrounds, highlighted edits to text documents, and other areas where color can have a negative impact on scanning workflow.

The large touch screen makes feature selection and manual entry of data faster than rival units.

The High Compression PDF mode reduces file sizes significantly, which will reduce the risk of firewall rejection and increase transmission rates.

The high degree of message personalization provides for a higher rate of opening/reading by the recipient.

Extensive security capabilities, including PDF encryption and permission settings, make communications more secure and users less at risk of personal information data breaches.

Batch and Mixed Media modes allow complex mixed document sets to be combined into a single scan job more easily than rival units.

Preview mode allows users to check that each page of a scanned document has been captured before releasing the job to the destination.

The scan and store function stores the document on the Document Server and emails a link to the recipient, allowing them to make the decision when to download the data.

WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE:

A searchable PDF creation format that converts hard copy into structured electronic information is available only with the GlobalScan option.

The Mixed Media mode should be more efficient. While a useful feature, it resulted in users spending a significantly longer time at the device compared to using the default auto setting.

A single-pass, straight path duplexing scanner would reduce the curvature and stress placed on originals during scanning, resulting in more reliable scanning of delicate and tough originals plus offer more productive duplex scanning speeds versus the traditional reversing design used in the device.

Faster scanning in High Compression PDF mode would give users the full benefit of the mode without sacrificing user productivity.

The ability to delete and replace scanned pages with errors during the preview phase would further streamline ad hoc scanning carried out in the general office.

The ability to scan directly to external storage devices such as USB memory sticks or SD digital camera cards would provide valuable ad-hoc hard copy to electronic capabilities in remote areas such as hotels, airport lounges, hotel business centers, and would be useful for mobile users without instant access to laptops or PCs.

The ability to combine 1-bit and 8-bit scanning into a single batch would allow the color dropout utility and the more bandwidth friendly black 1-bit scanning to be intertwined with higher image capture 8-bit modes for images and illustrations.

Multistreaming scanning would take full advantage of the added data capture benefit offered by the color scanning capability with the lower bandwidth and greater manageability of the monochrome scan functionality.
