Spectrum XF 8000 Series Scanners
The Bowe Bell & Howell extra fast, built to last, performance — without-compromise series of scanners:
With scanning speeds up to 140 pages per minute, the best of breed SharpShooter Trilinear CCD Camera, and onboard Virtual Rescan (VRS) Technology, Spectrum XF offers the best combination of features you'll find in a high-volume production scanner. Spectrum XF provides all of the extra benefits you want — extra throughput, extra efficiency, without the extra cost.
Spectrum XF includes and builds upon all the incredible features and benefits that have made the Spectrum Series the market leader.
Extra Advantages: Faster In Every Setting
Whatever your business or application, Spectrum XF will get you there... faster. With Spectrum XF, you can now take advantage of speeds up to 140 ppm (pages per minute). How much faster is this over previous models?
By any measure at any setting, Spectrum XF is up to 20% faster than other scanners in its class.
Compare with other scanners:
- No More Separator Sheets or Pre-Sorting
- Background Saturation: Reduce File Size on Color Documents
- Maximum Color Throughput and Minimal Cost of Ownership
- Superior Image Quality
- Intelligent Ultrasonic Multifeed: Never Miss a Double-Feed
- The Latest VRS Technology Built-In
- So much more...
Technology Spectrum XF proves that going faster doesn't mean you have to sacrifice image quality. The state-of-the-art TriLinear camera design - with one line per red, green and blue - ensures images at a finer level of detail in bitonal and grayscale and in more vivid color.
Unmatched power and speed:
- 600 dpi optical capture
- 7,500 pixel capture per line
- 22,500 total pixel capture
- 40 megapixel-per-second throughput
- Better image quality also means higher accuracy for OCR, ICR and barcode recognition, a terrific advancement for forms processing applications.
Onboard VirtualReScan (VRS):
Maximize Efficiency without the Trade-Offs
Why is “Onboard VRS” important? An onboard implementation of VRS is the best way to take full advantage of the image enhancement and interactive problem resolution functionality that VRS has to offer without sacrificing scanning speed. Spectrum XF features onboard VRS, which means that each model has a VRS image processing board built in. It’s like having a PC inside your scanner, helping to drive performance and processing time with optimal speed and efficiency.
Other manufacturers bundle VRS with their scanners but deliver disappointing results. Why? Because of the image enhancement functionalities are performed on the user's PC in software, rather than within the scanner in hardware, the user will have to sacrifice a measure of speed to accommodate these very intensive algorithms, which is particularly painful when scanning duplex, in color or both. In addition, scanners without onboard VRS may encounter problems because the scanner has not been fully integrated with VRS.
Because Böwe Bell + Howell was the first manufacturer to implement onboard VRS as a standard feature over five years ago with the Copiscan 8000 Plus, no one has done it longer and no one does it better.
With Spectrum XF and Onboard VRS, you can have advanced speed and improved productivity at the same time, on one system - now that's performance without compromise.
Onboard Auto Color Detect: Color When You Want It, Bitonal When You Don’t, Without the Speed Tradeoffs
Even if only a few of your documents need to be scanned in color, the advantages of Onboard Auto Color Detect are unmistakable.
Spectrum's new Auto Color Detect (ACD) feature does exactly as its name suggests—it correctly identifies color documents from bitonal documents automatically—without slowing down or stopping, while scanning is in process. Even if you only wish to scan a small number of your documents in color, the advantages ACD affords via uninterrupted performance are unmistakable, such as increased document capture productivity and lower storage requirements.
How Auto Color Detect Works
Auto Color Detect, also referred to as, “Automatic Color/Bitonal Switching,” automatically selects either color or bitonal output based upon image content. When enabled, the scanner measures the color content per page. Just because an image has color content doesn’t mean that it is meaningful enough to be output as a color image. Thus, users can set an “aggressiveness” threshold through the VRS interface on the host PC. Whether an image is captured in color is then based on whether the color content exceeds the threshold or not – if the color content exceeds the threshold, the image is captured in color and output to the PC in color; if not, the image is captured in bitonal and output to the PC in black & white. Another way to think about it is that the higher you set the aggressiveness threshold, the harder the scanner looks for color.
Infinity WF Scanners
BÖWE BELL + HOWELL recently expanded its product line to include a wide format scanner. The Infinity WF is available in three models to accommodate document sizes of 36 in., 42 in. and 48 in. wide.
Infinity WF is easy to use and can easily fit into an existing scanning application. No drivers or special software is required - Infinity WF works right out of the box. Simply assign a valid IP address to the scanner, open up a browser, and begin scanning.
Converting over sized documents such as maps, engineering schematics, and architectural drawings into high resolution TIFFs, JPEGs or PDFs has never been easier!
Trüper Scanners
The Exceptional, Fast-Producing, Ready-for-Duty Scanner
The low volume production scanner segment just got a little faster. Trüper's unique combination of image quality, 10,000 page daily duty cycle and category leading 67 pages per minute speed in landscape (62 ppm in portrait) make it an attractive option for service bureau overflow, busy office environments and businesses with exception document scanning needs. With flatbed plus rotary and a rotary only option, Trüper can meet your diverse scanning needs.
In addition to delivering the best of breed scanning technology and bundled feature sets – including VRS 4.1 Professional, Ultrasonic Multifeed Detection and Advanced Color Dropout – Tüüper also delivers industry-leading value. Trüper increases scanning productivity and reduces the total cost of scanning, all at an affordable price. Whatever your scanning needs, Trüper helps you get it done faster and more efficiently.
VirtualRescan 4.1 Professional:
A Feature Bundle That Saves You A Bundle
Trüper provides both high quality image enhancement and increased productivity through VRS 4.1. Trüper is the only scanner in its segment that bundles VRS 4.1 image enhancement technology as a standard scanner feature.
For installations that require auto everything, Trüper with VRS 4.1 Professional offers additional features that improve scanning efficiency. These features dramatically reduce document preparation and ongoing file storage requirements.
The advanced functionality that VRS 4.1 Professional provides includes:
Auto Rotation - Documents can be scanned in any orientation, reducing preparation requirements. The Auto-Rotation feature electronically rotates the image so that it can be read right side up by the scanner operator.
Auto Color Detect - Scanning color for color, bitonal for black and white. With Auto Color Detect, Trüper eliminates the pre-sorting of batched documents and the inserting of patch codes and separator sheets previously needed to capture color content.
Blank Page Deletion - Eliminates blank pages when scanned in duplex. This feature reduces files size and storage requirements by detecting and deleting blank pages within a scanned image. In addition, it also reduces document preparation, as you can put both simplex and duplex documents in the same batch.
Without exception, VRS 4.1 Professional improves your workflow and reduces the total time needed to scan even the largest volumes of mixed batch documents. Taken together, the benefits of Trüper's VRS 4.1 Professional bundle translate into real and measurable savings - fewer manual steps, reduced storage requirements and less operator intervention.
Trüper has two models to meet your diverse scanning needs:
Trüper 3200
The Trüper 3200 incorporates the same automatic document feeder as the Trüper 3600, but has a flatbed as well. For the instances that you need a flatbed, including exception documents, fragile documents or bound material, Trüper 3200 can meet your needs. At 62 PPM and a 10,000 daily duty cycle, Trüper combines high speed with a high duty cycle to provide a fast scanner that can handle just about anything that you throw at it in a single day.
Trüper 3600
The Trüper 3600 is a rotary only scanner. Don’t be fooled by its compact size.
