KODAK i40 Scanners mark their first year with new features!
- Announcement -
Kodak announced ( September 19, 2005 ), the industry-first
feeder attachment for the KODAK i40 Scanner that is designed to scan
documents, which have been impossible to scan before!
The KODAK i40 if equipped with the
new feeder can feed documents from the front, scan, and eject them
to the front again.
You can now enter new application opportunities for transactional
scanning, "usual scanners" simply do not fit! The i40 with the new "special document feeder"
is excellent for projects and unique applications.
All i40 Scanners are also equipped with the standard feeder for
batch scanning. The special document feeder is an additional
feature!
The ease-of-use “Special Document Feeder”, allows to
apply the scanner in environments where space is limited and traditional
scanners simply don’t fit! KODAK is the first vendor offering this function!
For the first time it is possible to place the scanner on
a counter with limited clearance, or even into a drawer. The feeder
can take almost anything, like plastic cards such
as ID-Cards, Credit cards, very thick postcards or other unusual
documents. The paper size can range between business card and A4.
Jams are virtually impossible using the Special Document Feeder!
With its one-touch-button operation and the new
front feeding and ejecting system, the scanner is excellent suited
for banking, transactions, retail, telecommunications, self-service,
lottery, hotel, Internet, medical, point-of-sales and many other
applications, which require to scan in a different way.
