Chapter 1 Scanner Overview

1.1 Main Features

This section explains about the main features of this product. The scanner is equipped with the following features:

Realizes a scanning speed of 130 sheets/260 pages per minute (under JPEG compression)

With a newly-developed high-speed CCD and a high-speed image processing circuit, the scanner can achieve a scanning speed of up to 130 sheets/260 pages per minute with A4/Letter color documents. This allows you to scan up to approximately 60,000 sheets per day.

Mounts a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

The scanner mounts an LCD that displays various operational settings for scanning, number of pages scanned, and error status. This allows you to easily check the status of the scanner.

Improved efficiency for pre- and post-scan work

The scanner supports "batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper thickness/size/color/brightness at once, simplifying the process of sorting the documents before scanning. Also, the new "Elevator Stacker" has been adopted which automatically keeps the stacker at a certain height. This prevents the scanned documents from being scattered in the output, which makes the scan operation more efficient.

Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds

The scanner mounts an ultrasonic multifeed sensor that accurately detects errors when two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at once (called "multifeed"). This multifeed detection is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different thickness/size/color/ brightness, avoiding potential work loss.

Intelligent Multifeed function

When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location on the page, the Intelligent Multifeed function recognizes the location of the attachment. This allows you to continue scanning instead of detecting every paper attached to that location as multifeed.

Furthermore, functions such as Paper Protection will save valuable documents from being damaged.

Various functions to help the operators

“Anti-Dust Coating Glass built-in Paper Path” keeps the surface of the scan glass clean, reducing the operators’ work load by extending the cleaning cycles.

“Automatic Stacker” is adopted which stacks the scanned documents neatly, reducing the operators’ work load by shortening the time to prepare and sort the documents.

“Automatic Image Quality Checker” checks through the scanned images and displays images that are in poor condition.

Advanced image processing functions

The scanner’s automatic detection function outputs images in color or monochrome by document content. You do not have to change the settings every time you scan. Also, it comes with a Kofax CGA board which is known for quality image processing. High quality images can be acquired by using functions such as Automatic Image Rotation which rotates documents into their correct orientations, as well as other various image processing functions such as Background Removal.

Front-Side/Back-Side Imprinter Option

Front-Side/Back-Side Imprinters are available as scanner options, which are often demanded for managing/verifying vouchers and business forms. You can select Front-Side Imprinter (to print on the front side of the document) or Back-Side Imprinter (to print on the back side of the document) for improved usability.
