Desktop scanners provide a solution for those offices that are looking for an economical and high-quality scanner that takes up little space. These affordable scanners offer impressive functionality despite their small size, and are portable.
First Coast Technologies provides a range of desktop scanners that are ideal for office or home use. Choose between simplex scanning, where only one side of a page is scanned, and duplex scanning functionality, where both sides of the page are captured as images. Desktop scanners can typically capture 10 to 60 pages per minute. Some desktop scanners are capable of processing far larger amounts of data, for example, 120 images per minute.
Benefits of desktop scanners
Desktop scanners can help a company to save time and money and improve business processes. Feeding pages into a scanner individually by hand is a thing of the past, as desktop scanners often have auto-document feeders. Up to 50 pages can be placed in a tray and the scanner will process them automatically, ensuring that data is scanned properly and original copies are not damaged.
Many desktop scanners also offer one-touch control technology that enables scanned material to be sent to email accounts, to a printer or to a network.
Combine a desktop scanner with a scanning software solution and it's possible to store and manage scanned documents very efficiently. Optical character recognition (OCR) is a key component of electronic recognition software and identifies individual characters in scanned material, allowing recorded data to be edited and manipulated. Document management software then organises the scanned data into a database or repository and administrates access to it.
Make sure that your office is uncluttered by making use of document digitising technology. Use desktop scanners to create a functional office environment and facilitate smooth business processes.
