Document Scanner 5500    Get down to business with the KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Document Scanner 5500

Introduction
The KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Document Scanner 5500 provides versatile batch scanning to support mid-volume or decentralized imaging applications ranging from 3,000 to 12,000 pages per day. On-board Adaptive Threshold Processing (ATP) saves time and enhances image quality. A robust paper transport, advanced document feeder and fast throughput rate provide productive, reliable simplex or duplex scanning - all in a convenient, desktop-sized package.


Improve quality and throughput - automatically
The on-board dynamic thresholding capabilities of the Document Scanner 5500 mean there's no need for an expensive accessory board. ATP provides uniform image quality from batches of intermixed documents. This eliminates the need to pre-sort documents by background color, print density, or quality. In many cases, compression is also improved, resulting in smaller file sizes. Rescans are minimized and more work gets done faster.


A proven foundation you can depend on
The Document Scanner 5500 takes its design strength from KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Scanners, the industry leaders among high-volume production scanners.

Its enhanced transport handles an unsurpassed range of document sizes, thicknesses and surface quality to minimize stoppages and the need for exception scanning. An advanced document feeder accepts mixed-size documents in stacks up to 1.5" (or approximately 200 pages), further reducing operator time and labor costs.

      

Scanning productivity at the press of a button
The Document Scanner 5500 scans up to 80 pages per minute (A4 letter-size, landscape mode; 60 ppm portrait); equivalent to 160 images per minute in duplex mode. Simple controls, preprogrammed function keys, and available accessories help operators become efficient with little training.

In a single pass, the Document Scanner 5500 will scan the fronts and backs of documents, and read bar codes and patches to reduce manual data entry, while printing information such as time/date or sequence number. And your scanning reliability will be backed by a responsive, global network of certified Kodak Field Engineers.


A versatile scanner that fits many applications
The high speed of the Scanner 1500 can be perfect for your centralized or decentralized scanning operation, depending on your application volumes. It is also ideal for system pilot trials, as they provide a base from which to move up to higher speeds within the family of KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Scanners.
