Xerox Corporation has launched a colour sheetfed scanner small enough to fit on a desktop, optimized to scan ID cards and including ultrasonic double-feed detection technology.

The latest generation in this award-winning scanning series, the Xerox DocuMate 3460 scans 60 pages per minute / 120 images per minute in duplex.

The Xerox DocuMate 3460 is designed for desktop use in any office where scanning plastic ID cards, business cards, documents or other heavy card stock is necessary.

It incorporates an exclusively designed front-feed tray that not only increases plastic card scanning efficiency in healthcare and financial services applications but also reduces roller wear by up to 60 per cent over competing brands, resulting in lower total cost of ownership.

The Xerox DocuMate 3460 also includes ultrasonic double-feed detection technology that will alert the user if double feeding of originals occurs during scanning. This technology prevents lost images and enables paper of different weights or thickness to be scanned quickly and reliably.

“Every day the average office encounters documents in many shapes, sizes and materials,” said Dan Smith, general manager for integrated marketing, Xerox, MEA (DMO).

“The Xerox DocuMate 3460 can scan multi-coloured forms, embossed plastic cards and various other documents at the press of a button, allowing office workers  to move on to the next task,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
