Expanded Feeding Capabilities Extend Support
for New Capture Applications Including Passports
Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today
introduced the imageFORMULA DR-C240 office document scanner, a
dynamic new document scanner designed to support the image capture
of different-sized documents, including passports. With its ability
to easily scan and extract text from documents, this model is ideal
for businesses seeking to facilitate check-in and identity
verification within various markets including government, passenger
transportation, accommodation services, rental and leasing
services, insurance, financial and legal services.
“As developments in information technology continue to result in
the growth of international business, it’s critical that document
scanners are equipped to handle a wide variety of check-in,
registration and identification forms,” said Anne Valaitis,
director of Image Scanning Trends and Professional & Managed
Print Services at InfoTrends. “Information management relies
heavily on having the proper tools. For increased efficiency,
businesses should seek out those solutions equipped with expanded
scanning capabilities to handle documents of various shapes and
sizes.”
The new imageFORMULA DR-C240 scanner can be used to integrate
information into digital workflows for process automation and
information distribution while helping to increase collaboration
among individuals or workgroups.
“For companies seeking to maximize productivity, it is necessary
for offices to digitalize their documents and records including
those documents which are not standard shapes or letter size,” said
Junichi Yoshitake, senior vice president, Business Imaging
Solutions Group, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “With the imageFORMULA DR-C240
scanner’s carrier sheet, this new model is an excellent option for
businesses looking to improve the organization of passports and
identification documents needed for travel, check-in, finance and
identity verification.”
Dynamic, Reliable, Flexible Feeding
The DR-C240 scanner is capable of scanning up to 45
pages-per-minute (ppm), with both sides of an item in a single
pass, in color or black & white1. Able to hold up to 60 sheets,
in addition to passports, the scanner can handle a variety of
document types including thick, thin, long, or oversized documents,
plastic or embossed cards.
In addition, the DR-C240 comes equipped with double-feed
detection functions and a one-touch release button to allow
scanning to resume when a double feed is detected for a seamless
and more efficient scanning experience.
Ease of Use
In addition to the standard carrier sheet this scanner offers
other user-friendly features to enhance image capture performance.
The DR-C240 scanner’s easy-to-use operation panel contains
intuitive, accessible controls to start scanning operations,
pre-configure job tasks with one-touch job buttons. It can scan
different sized documents in mixed batches to help eliminate
document pre-sorting activities thereby maximizing a user’s
time.
Bundled with both Canon CaptureOnTouch and Canon CapturePerfect
software, users can pre-configure scan tasks and choose from a wide
selection of file distribution options. With CaptureOnTouch,
scanned documents can be sent directly to third-party cloud
applications2 such as Evernote™, Microsoft® SharePoint®, Dropbox,
SugarSync, Google Drive™, and OneDrive. This scanner is also
bundled with ISIS® and TWAIN drivers for easy integration with
third-party software.
