Creates sharp, accurate scans
The Ci 40 wide format scanner's CIS imaging technology gives extremely sharp, finely resolved and geometrically accurate images that are especially suited to scanning technical documents. Its high 600 dpi optical resolution is more than enough for any technical large format scanning job. (The optimal scanning resolution for most technical documents is 200 to 400 dpi.)
A unique Advanced Single Roller Paper Transport (ASRPT) system comprising a single, large diameter precision ground roller with a dynamic spring mounted media guide mechanism maintains accurate document positioning as the document passes through the scanner.
Images are scanned using 16-bits (monochrome), with the best 8-bits selected as image data.
When you're scanning monochrome the Ci 40 flies. All models scan monochrome at 10 inches per second (200 dpi).
"Scan-it-once" philosophy
(Requires ScanWorks software, not included with scanner. $580.00)
With other wide format scanners you have to perform multiple pre-scans of selected image areas to get scan settings right. With the Ci 40 large format scanner and ScanWorks software you scan only once, then perform thresholding and image enhancements on the scan in real time.
Scan-it-once technology gives you a huge workflow advantage. You can perform quality assurance and adjustments in-line, "right-first-time", instead of needing to re-scan quality control failures off-line after batch scanning is completed.
An additional advantage of scan-it-once technology is that it minimizes document movement (and possible wear) through the scanner and document skew caused by back and forth "checking".
The Ci 40 large format scanner is networkable - it has an Ethernet 1000 connection as well as a USB2 connection. Ethernet 1000 transmits data between the scanner and the PC faster than USB2. It also allows you to place the scanner further from the host PC or network socket than USB2, which has a 2m maximum recommended cable length.
Preserves delicate originals
Face-up scanning with front exit
The Ci 40 large format scanner lets you choose between side justified and center justified document loading. The document is scanned face-up so you can see the content as you scan it, reducing the potential for error. Scanned documents are ejected at the front of scanner, making them easier to retrieve.
The supplied All in One SmartLF software is designed for operation by non-specialist users and is very simple to use while providing all the basic scan to file and scan to copy functionality you need.
Plug 'n' Play USB2 Interface
