Fujitsu has announced the next generation of its workgroup scanning solutions, incorporating new management features and an Intelligent Multi-Feed Function.

The new Fujitsu fi-6140Z and fi-6240Z (flatbed model) scanners deliver scanning speeds of 60ppm/120ipm at 200 dpi (color, grayscale, monochrome), and the Fujitsu fi-6130Z and fi-6230Z (flatbed model) provide 40ppm/80 ipm at 200 dpi.

A new centralized administration function allows users to monitor scanner running status, update scanner drivers, check consumable status, and more, all over a network, from one location.

The Intelligent Multi-Feed Function (iMFF) provides instant detection of a multi-feed or multilayer document, such as taped-on receipts or sticky notes added to a document. This technology allows users to remain productive under demanding scanning conditions while also preserving the benefits of the scanner’s ultrasonic double-feed detection to secure against lost images.

A new advanced encoder inside the document feeder analyzes each passing sheet and stops scanner operation when an irregularity is detected during a page feed, helping to avoid document damage and increase pre and post scan operational efficiency.

Each scanner includes Kofax VRS 5.0 Professional for enhanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) document data extraction and scanning functionality including automatic colour detection, image orientation, paper deskew, paper size detection and blank page detection/removal.

The new models allow for the use of a carrier sheet for digitising a variety of document types such as large paper sizes (up to A3), ultra thin or small documents, magazine pages and photos. The scanners are also equipped with enhanced embossed card scanning capability, such as plastic ID cards and insurance cards (up to 1.4mm thick), and allow feeding of up to three hard cards in either landscape or portrait orientation through its 50-page automatic document feeder (ADF).

They also offer a post imprinter option for users with demanding document management and verification needs. The imprinter unit prints identification markers like dates, alphanumeric codes and symbols on the reverse side of the original document. This makes it easier to locate the original scanned document when needed for reference.

A new “ScanSnap Mode” gives users that prefer the “one-button,” driverless experience of the line of ScanSnap scanners an alternative ad-hoc approach to being productive through scanning.

The new scanners will be available in March and priced as follows: fi-6130Z $A1199, fi-6140Z $A1999,  fi-6230Z $A1999, fi-6240Z $A2750 RRP
