| KODAK i1840 Scanner Announced Eastman Kodak Company's Document Imaging Business has announced the introduction of the KODAK i1840 Scanner. The new scanner joins the recently introduced KODAK i1860 Scanner. The KODAK i1840 Scanner captures images at up to 160 pages per minute, and offers a variety of ergonomic features including a user height-adjustable base to maximize productivity while operators either sit or stand. Research has shown a direct correlation between employee comfort and productivity especially when it comes to adjustable workstations. In contrast, the KODAK i1860 scans images at a rate of up to 200 pages per minute. The i1840 also includes an intuitive colour touch-screen display to simplify on-the-fly performance by putting a variety of controls at the operator's fingertips and the scanner has pre-scan or post-scan printing capability. The KODAK i1840 Scanner is a suitable solution for paper-intensive environments such as service bureaus and insurance companies that centrally process claims or financial institutions who handle high volumes of transactions such as loan and mortgage transactions which have a wide variety of document types, colours, weights and demanding duty cycles. Other features include: • Kodak's Perfect Page imaging technologies for outstanding image quality; • SurePath paper handling for easy document throughput; • Three independent, ultrasonic, multi-feed detection sensors; • Black or white background option; • A 500-sheet feeder for optimum capacity; • An output hopper that keeps documents in order; • FIREWIRE connectivity. Both the new production scanners can be combined with the latest version of Kodak's image capture software along with the recently launched new desktop workgroup and departmental KODAK i1200 and i1300 Series Scanners. Available immediately, KODAK Capture Software version 6.10 now adds MICR code support - a critical function in the processing and sorting of cheques as it augments current barcode and zonal OCR indexing capabilities. Improved zonal OCR support enables the removal of unwanted and embedded spaces from OCR engine results -commonly referred to as kerning - ensuring extraction of only the most relevant content. Other new features include a page-limited version of the IRIS PDF output format for convenient and fast creation of fully searchable PDF files. This will now also be bundled with KODAK Capture Software supporting all KODAK Document Scanners. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
