KODAK Launches
New Tethered Flatbed Option For The
I1200/I1300 Scanner Series To Increase User Flexibility
March 30, 2007—
Kodak’s landmark i1200 and i1300 Series
Scanners, available since November 2006, now have even more to offer:
an
optional tethered flatbed unit. This option can be connected to any of
the
scanners in the range (KODAK i1210, i1220, i1310 and i1320) using a
2-metre USB
cable, providing the flexibility to best suit space and workflow
requirements.
This means
that the tethered flatbed unit can, for
example, be placed on the counter whilst the scanner base is located
behind.
This is particularly advantageous for front-office applications as the
‘start’
button on the flatbed unit can initiate the scanning procedure.
Documents up to
DIN-A4, eg. books, newspapers and other bound documents such as
passports and
savings books can all be scanned at optical resolutions of up to 1200
dpi,
showing details that cannot be seen by the naked eye.
Both the
KODAK i1200 and i1300 Series Scanners and the
tethered flatbed accessory come with an unbeatable 3-year, next
business day
replacement warranty (in most European countries). Customers also have
the
option to upgrade this to a 3 year on-site service, whereby a Kodak
service
engineer will repair the equipment the following work day at the
customer site.
Product Highlights
The
workgroup models KODAK i1210 (simplex), i1220
(duplex) can scan up to 30 pages or 60 images per minute respectively.
The
departmental scanners KODAK i1310 (simplex) and i1320 (duplex) offer a
maximum
speed of 60 pages or 120 images per minute respectively, making them
the
fastest scanners in their segment.
All four models came with
Kodak’s enhanced
Perfect Page image processing technology to ensure high quality scanned
images
independent of original document quality. Kodak’s reliable
document feed can
deal with the most challenging of documents and the ultrasonic double
feed
detection ensures reliable paper separation.
The auto orientation and automatic colour recognition make
feeding mixed
documents very easy and the ergonomically designed ‘Tilt and
Scan’ feature
allows for horizontal and vertical positioning of the scanner depending
upon
the capture requirements. In addition, the “Smart
Touch” feature enables
one-touch scanning to email, printer, pdf, etc. as required.

and i1220 are priced at €799 and €1,199
