DR-X10C Scanner.
The
Canon
DR-X10C Scanner’s speed with the
additional VRS capability and cost drops by as much as
34% (128 ppm claim to 84.6 ppm actual) in a scenario
where the following image processing features are
enabled: 200 dpi, bitonal, duplex, auto thresholding,
auto orientation, multifeed detection, multipage

format (Test 1).
•
When scanning at 300 dpi with all the other features
the same,
Canon
DR-X10C Scanner productivity
drops to 39.8 ppm (Test 2).
The use of basic image processing features severely
impacts the productivity of the
Canon
Scanner.
The
Kodak
i780 Scanner outperforms the
Canon
DR-X10C Scanner with more imaging features
enabled, and at higher (300 dpi) resolution.
Canon markets productivity but in real-world
scenarios they run much slower. And despite a
customer’s additional investment in VRS,
turning on
features
continues to have a detrimental eect on
throughput speed (see charts 2 and 3 in appendices).

Key takeaways:
The
Kodak
i780 Scanner delivers speed, throughput
Kodak i780 Scanner delivers speed, throughput Kodak
and productivity as rated, even with multiple imaging
features enabled, while the
Canon
DR-X10C Scanner
suers severely compromised throughput that is far below
claimed speeds and volumes, with only the most basic
imaging features enabled.
Canon’s marketing materials promote optimal
speed and throughput levels but do not take into
account real-world scenarios, so claimed speeds
are not reflective of actual performance.
In the world of production scanning, it is the actual
features-enabled ppm results that truly count.
