IQ Quattro wide-format scanner
Contex has announced announces the IQ Quattro, a wide format scanner designed to improve workgroup productivity by reducing the time spent on scanning tasks.
The IQ Quattro is a Gigabit Ethernet cloud-enabled wide format scanner. Workgroup users can specify local or cloud-based destinations for scans using smartphones, tablets, and other devices for instant collaboration. The IQ Quattro boasts a top scanning speed of 14 inches per second for colour or monochrome documents -- just 3.5 seconds for A0/E-size colour documents.
It also features Contex's CleanScan CIS module to suppress shadows and unwanted background.
The IQ Quattro is available in 24- and 44-inch models.
The scanner's new magnetic document guides make loading long documents easier and more precise, and detachable return guides simplify document handling.
The IQ Quattro is PageDrop-enabled for cloud computing. Users simply load a document, scan the QR code, and the web-app will send the scanned image to the desired location: email, DropBox, HP ePRint, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive, or Box.com.
Contex's Gigabit Network also comes standard with all IQ Quattro models supporting speeds of up to 80 MB/sec. The scanner can be networked with an entire workgroup, and one-touch buttons can send scans to users' desired locations.
