Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) today announced a new color sheetfed scanner
that is 50 percent faster than similarly priced competitive products,
small enough to fit on a desktop, optimized to scan ID cards and
includes ultrasonic double-feed detection technology. The latest
generation in this award-winning scanning series, the Xerox
DocuMate® 262i scans at 76 images per
minute and lists for $1,195.
The DocuMate 262i is designed for desktop use in any office
where scanning plastic ID cards, business cards, documents or other
heavy card stock is necessary. It incorporates a new, patent-pending
front-feed tray that not only increases ID card scanning efficiency in healthcare
and financial
services applications but also reduces roller wear by up to 60
percent over competing brands, resulting in lower total cost of
ownership. The DocuMate 262i also includes ultrasonic double-feed
detection technology that will alert the user if double feeding of
originals occurs during scanning. This technology prevents lost images
and enables paper
of different weights or thickness to be scanned quickly and reliably.
The DocuMate 262i is powered by Visioneer
OneTouch®
scanning technology for eliminating multiple steps in sending
scanned documents in all popular file formats, including searchable PDF, to
predetermined applications such as Microsoft SharePoint, Kofax
Ascent Capture, EMC QuickScan Pro, Hyland OnBase and/or to devices such
as printers and storage systems in just one touch.
“The DocuMate 262i’s
combination of price and performance is unmatched. It scans 50 percent
faster than similarly priced competitive products,”
said Murray
L. Dennis, president and CEO of Visioneer, a Xerox licensing partner
and developer of the DocuMate product line. “It
also incorporates Visioneer OneTouch®
technology, an exclusive utility that connects the button on your
scanner with powerful software drivers so that with one touch your
document is automatically scanned and delivered to any destination you
choose. While some competing products also have scan buttons, they still
require multiple clicks to complete the job.”
The Xerox DocuMate 262i scanner also includes Kofax®
VirtualReScan™ (VRS) version 4.2 software,
which provides unsurpassed image quality, superior optical character
recognition accuracy, auto-exposure, auto-cropping and wide-angle
deskew. The Kofax VRS 4.2 is now upgraded with the following features:
Expanded support for blank page detection and deletion.
Improvements to the Advanced Clarity and Auto Orientation features.
Support for bar code recognition, endorsing, and compression formats
with TWAIN-based scanning applications.
Expanded support for image storage and compression formats with
ImageControls-based scanning applications.
Support for Microsoft Windows Vista.
DocuMate 262i Color Duplex Scanner
The Xerox DocuMate 262i processes 38 ppm / 76 ipm at 200 dpi monochrome
and grayscale. It also has one of the smallest footprints of any
automatic document feed scanner on the market. It offers an optical
resolution of 600 x 1200 dpi, 48-bit internal color, a hi-speed USB 2.0
interface (USB 1.1 compatible), with a suite of bundled software
applications and utilities worth more than $800. Bundled
software includes TWAIN and ISIS®
certified drivers, Kofax VRS, Nuance®
PaperPort®, Nuance
OmniPage® Pro, and
EMC Captiva®
QuickScan™ Demo. The convenient 50-page
capacity automatic document feeder can handle paper and photos from
business cards up to legal-size documents.
The original DocuMate 262, launched in November 2004, received the
prestigious Editors’
Choice Award from PC Magazine and was given a rating of 4½
out of 5. The award went to the DocuMate 262 for its speed and high
performance software bundle. The DocuMate 262 earned editors’
choice from a field of scanners that included competitive products from
Canon, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard and Microtek.
