What is the ScanPro 2000?

The ScanPro 2000 is ultra compact digital scanning device for all types of microfilm.

What are the advantages of the ScanPro 2000 over exiting traditional Reader/Printers?

Overview:

Existing Reader/Printers combined the print engine with the viewer box making their footprint quite large. These machines over time required expensive service to repair faulty print engines and in some cases also required the use of expensive “treated” paper in order to print. With the ScanPro 2000 the printing operation is done with your existing network printer thus removing the cost of repair for traditional internal print engines traditionally found in Reader/Printers. The ScanPro 2000 creates digital images of your microfilm in a file format of your choice (JPEG, PDF, TIFF, TIFF compressed, TIFF G4, PDF multi-page, TIFF multi-page) allowing you to electronically send scanned images directly through the software via email with your internet connected computer.

• Desktop, compact microforms scanner.
  Fits almost anywhere, takes up about as much desktop space as two sheets of letter paper.

• Works with all types of microforms.
  The ScanPro 2000 works with all microforms: Fiche, 16mm and 35mm Roll Film, Cartridge Film (3M), Ultra Fiche, Micro Books, Micro Opaques, and Aperture Cards.

• Built specifically for the rigors of public use applications.
  Heavy gauge metal throughout and all moving parts have steel bearings for smooth, sturdy performance. No external brackets, adjustment arms, lens adjustments, or switches are exposed to the public. To accommodate the expectations of today’s users, all operational controls are located on the view screen for consistency and ease-of-use.

• On screen help is a “CLICK” away.
  On screen help is available to the operator for all of the toolbar control buttons.

• Single zoom lenses cover 7X to 54X or 7X to 105X (true optical zoom means high resolution).
  Integrated design so there is no changing of lenses when changing film types or magnifications, and there is no need to use additional or companion equipment.

• Selectable resolution.
  Select the resolution needed for any application 200, 300, 400, or 600 dpi.

• High Resolution 300 dpi scans in ONE second at ALL magnifications.
  The ScanPro 2000 has the fastest scan speed of any “on-demand” scanner (these are NOT the low-resolution screen shots sometimes called instant scans or snap shots). A fast scan speed makes it possible to complete research and look-ups quickly and efficiently.

• Image Enhancement.
  The PowerScan 2000 software automatically applies filters to enhance the image and remove the effect of scratches and other blemishes on your microfilm images.

• Environmental RoHS compliant design.
  Complies with the strict RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) requirements for the avoidance of materials that have been identified as harmful to the environment.

• Energy Star®
  The ScanPro 2000 meets strict EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and DOE (Department of Energy) energy saving guidelines and has been awarded the Energy Star.

• TRUE-View operation – What You See Is What You Get operation.
  You always view your image at high resolution and you see any image adjustments that you make right on your viewing screen. And, when satisfied with what you see, that is exactly what you get when you scan, save, or print.

• One CLICK magnifier to enlarge text and images.
  Enlarge a selected portion of the view screen image at up to 500% and view the smallest details while seeing the original document as a reference. Or, you can enlarge the entire view screen image and “drag” to view.

• Customizable toolbar with save and recall settings.
  After you have selected the features that you want for an application, give your “custom” setting a name, save it, and the next time that microform application is to be used, recall all of the “custom” settings with a single “CLICK” (this is an administrative selection).

• Multiple output capability – Laser print, e-mail, save to: USB pen drive, Hard drive, CD.
  The ScanPro 2000 has separate buttons to print to a laser printer (can be networked), save to a USB pen drive or USB hard drive, burn to a CD, save to the computer hard drive, or e-mail. Since these are separate buttons, you can select which ones will be available to the operator (this is an administrative selection).

• Select the file format that will be used.
  The available file formats are PDF, JPEG, TIFF, TIFF compressed, TIFF G4, Multi page PDF, multi page TIFF (all formats). The administrator can select the file format that will be used or choose to let the operator make the selection. And, at the end of a session, user files are deleted from the Hard Drive.

• Automatic controls for microforms.
  Automatic controls: focus, brightness, contrast, straightening, cropping, and “One CLICK” image adjustments.

• Automatic controls for microfilm.
  Automatic roll film controls: image advance, image framing, and automatic film rewind.

• Secure screen mode.
  The administrator can elect to “lock down” the view screen and ScanPro 2000 software so that the operator cannot access the desktop and use other programs. This is sometimes called the kiosk mode or secure screen mode.

• Remote Access is standard.
  The ScanPro 2000 can be operated from a remote location using a computer with internet access running commercially available free “remote access software”.

• No charge software updates.
  All updates to PowerScanTM 2000, the ScanPro 2000 software, are available as a no charge download from the e-ImageData web site throughout the life of the product.

• Automatic Scanning for roll film.
  The optional Auto-ScanTM plug-in software adds automatic scanning for roll film to any ScanPro 2000 with a motorized roll film carrier.

• ScanPro 2000 Product Warranty.
  Factory 12-month warranty.

• Product lifetime warranty on the illumination lamp.
