Features | |
L36ei Scanner | The L36ei scanner incorporates a SingleSensor assembly technology, which helps provide consistent and better color accuracy with more detail in the shadows and highlights than a staggered CIS array scanner. Features • Touch Screen Operation Panel • 600 dpi optical resolution • Image scanning of up to 36” wide, fits documents 38” wide • Scanning speed of up to 3 inches per second monochrome, 1 inch per second color • Scan length of up to 109" • 3 Quality Modes: Draft, Standard and Best • Scan documents up to .5 mm thick • Face up / Rear exit • Straight paper path The L36ei scanner contains a single component image sensor that is the full width of the scanner and has long life LED Bi-directional illumination. Full width image capture, as opposed to time delayed scanning of separate sections, means less risk of misalignment of scan data. LED’s require virtually no warm up time and provide a wide and consistent color gamut, with low power consumption and less potential for shadowing at creases or folds. |
