Fujitsu
launches specialist scanners for superior document management
High Five: Fujitsu leads the way to enhanced production scanning
London, 3 September 2008 — Fujitsu Europe
Limited, a market leader in document imaging scanners, today
announced its next generation of specialist production document
scanners – four new high-speed colour, duplex models -
fi-6670, fi-6670A, fi-6770 and fi-6770A - and a high speed colour
simplex model - fi-6750S - enabling customers to get the exact
specification they need to meet their requirements. All models
offer new intelligent functions for advanced paper handling,
improved feeding technology and enhanced speeds. With processing
speeds of up to 90 pages per minute or 180 images per minute
(duplex model, A4, landscape, 200 dpi colour), all are amongst
the fastest document scanners in their class.
The best get better...
The new scanners are replacements to two hugely successful fi-range
models. The fi-6670 and fi-6670A replace the current fi-5650C
model and the fi-6770 and fi-6770A are successor models to the
current fi-5750C. With a daily duty cycle of 15,000 scans these
models can support occasional scanning up to three times this
level. Coupled with the VRS Professional software included as
standard this provides the greatest possible flexibility for
both front- and back-office scanning environments. Additionally
the fi-6670A and the fi-6770A are equipped with a Colour Graphics
Adapter (CGA) board for faster processing of sophisticated image
enhancement using VRS algorithms.
The final addition to the range, the fi-6750S, is an entry-level
A3 format device that enables fast scanning of single sided
documents. It features both an automatic document feeder (ADF)
to scan high volumes of paper and an A3 flatbed unit, which
can scan delicate or damaged documents. It expands the product
portfolio to offer customers looking for a simplex scanner a
highly affordable, yet technologically advanced, option. All
of the scanners have been developed to be state of the art and
offer reliable, stable integration with most Enterprise Content
Management systems.
High-speed and intelligent multi-feed functions
These new scanners make duplex scanning easier through advanced
paper feed and scanning technology. The fi-6670 and fi-6770
series scanners simplify batch-scanning processes by allowing
documents that have sticky notes or photos attached to them
to pass through the scanner without triggering false multi-feeds.
The 200-sheet ADF supports a continuous scan of mixed batch
documents containing paper of different weights, quality and
formats of DIN A3 down to A8. On top of this, this series of
scanners is able to scan oversized documents up to 3m long,
which enables them to digitize electrocardiograms, instrumental
data readings and other long documents, which need to be scanned
and filed for the future.
Additionally, the fi-6750S scanner, the simplex-version based
on the new fi-6670 / fi-6770 duplex-series, allows fast capture
of single sided documents. It features both an ADF and an A3
flatbed and expands Fujitsu’s product portfolio to meet
specific customer requirements in the simplex scanning markets.
“In today’s high paced marketplace, speed and process
efficiency is key for decreasing cost. This is true in enterprises
of any size and most relevant for companies offering scanning
services” said Klaus Schulz, Manager, Product Marketing
EMEA, Fujitsu Europe Limited. “With this new series of
scanners Fujitsu sets the pace for digitizing huge volumes of
documents in any kind of back or front office environment. With
their advanced technology, specialist features and innovative
design this new range of scanners is perfect for the 21st century
workplace.”
Ergonomic design
With office comfort and ergonomic design an important factor
in all workplaces the new fi-range of scanners come with some
innovative additions to make their operation easy and comfortable.
For ease of use, and to help with maximising office space, the
fi-6670 series scanner features identical control panels on
either side of the scanner to allow for one button scanning
configurations. This allows for the full functionality of the
scanner to be used no matter where you are operating it.
The flatbed-equipped fi-6770 series model scanner also comes
with innovative features and provides users the option of re-positioning
the automatic document feeder (ADF) by 180 degrees. This enables
more comfortable scanning and also allows for office space to
be maximised with the scanner being able to be pivoted for space
saving scanning.
Valuable software bundles
The Fujitsu fi-6670 and fi-6770 series scanners come bundled
with Adobe Acrobat, ScandAll PRO for advanced image processing
and enhancement, as well as VirtualReScan (VRS) 4.2 Professional.
VRS provides users with more automation capabilities that further
reduce the need for manual intervention in the scanning process
and offers a powerful suite of intelligent image processing
features, including automatic orientation, blank page removal,
background saturation and colour detection. The VRS software
also eliminates the need to rescan document images because of
its automatic check for adjustment of alignment (skew), brightness,
contrast and image clarity.
