The smartest
way to make
paper history.
Ngenuity
Series Scanners

Kodak Ngenuity Series Scanners—the next scanning
innovation in Kodak’s document imaging solutions’
portfolio—deliver an unprecedented combination of
intelligent paper handling, 40% larger feeder capacity than
other scanners in their class and razor-sharp image quality,
with the added benefits of a user-friendly interface, easy
maintenance and a low cost of consumables. Users across
industries can now convert a wider range of documents
into high-quality digital images, quickly and more
eciently than ever before. It’s an ingenious way to make,
manage, and move images and information.
The smartest way to scan the widest range of documents
Fragile and thin documents
Rice Paper • Airbills • NCR Forms
Very long documents
EKG Strips • Oil Well Logs
Advanced document handling = improved workflow eciency
Scan a wider range of documents
Everything from rice paper to plastic
cards, to stued envelopes and cardstock,
to photos and long EKG strips is fair game
for the Ngenuity Scanners, which scan the
widest range of documents of any scanner
in their class*.
With daily duty cycles of up to 150,000
pages, Ngenuity Scanners breeze through
documents up to 12.5 inches wide and
200 meters long, at speeds that are
among the best in their class:
• 150 pages per minute in black-and-
white, color and grayscale at 200 dpi
Further, you don’t have to sacrifice long-
term eciency for short-term speed.
Some components on the scanner
have been tested to last for more than
50 million scans.
Straight pass-through paper
path and document modes
add versatility
While most documents can make their
way easily through the scanner’s rotary
path, the Ngenuity Scanners include
an alternative “straight pass through”
paper path for exception documents
(such as stued envelopes and laminated
cards) that cannot make the turn on the
rotary path.
What’s more, special document scanning
modes auto-adjust the Ngenuity
Scanners’ feeding and transport
scanner settings for very long, folded
or fragile documents.
Auto-adjustable feeder tray holds
40% more documents
The Ngenuity Scanners’ feeder tray holds
700 documents—40% more than other
scanners in their class.
The tray also rises and falls—literally—in
perfect sync with your batch size, thanks
to Variable Feeder Tray Capacity Control,
which remembers your most recent
batch size. And since the feeder does not
restrict you to manufacturer-set batch size
limitations, you can scan almost any size
batch you want, faster than ever before.
The feeder tray’s capacity and innovative
technology save you valuable time when
loading and switching batches.
The Kodak Ngenuity Scanners’
innovative design packs in smart
features that make a big impact in
helping you spend less time sorting
paper, adjusting scanner settings
and worrying about image quality,
and more time streamlining your
document workow and boosting
your bottom line.

Exception documents
Receipts • Folded Documents
• Photographs
Thick and sti documents
Stued Envelopes • Plastic Cards
• Cardstock
Legal and A4 size documents
Contracts • Forms • Invoices
State-of-the-art technologies = enhanced image quality
Added-value functionality = preferred user experience
Next-generation cameras deliver
razor-sharp images
Armed with top-of-the-line SharpShooter
Trilinear CCD cameras, the Kodak
Ngenuity Scanners deliver 600 dpi optical
capture and output.
This advanced camera technology
delivers higher OCR, ICR and barcode
recognition rates and more reliable
forms processing.
LED illumination: longer lasting,
no warm-up time
LED lights require no warm-up time,
meaning the scanner can deliver optimal
image quality from the minute you turn
it on.
The LED lights are designed to last the
life of the scanner with normal use and
provide a more stable level of light than
traditional lamps. This translates into
more consistent image quality and less
time spent calibrating the cameras. In
fact, the Ngenuity Scanners’ cameras
only need to be calibrated one to two
times per year.
Onboard VirtualReScan
Professional: image enhancement
at no cost to speed
Onboard VRS Professional Application
is integrated into the hardware of the
scanner. This way, you can enjoy all the
image enhancement and error resolution
functionality of the VRS application
without sacrificing speed.
Advanced color management and more
precise image cropping are only two of
the many features at your fingertips with
Onboard VirtualReScan Professional
Application on the Ngenuity Scanner.
Easy to install, use and maintain
The Ngenuity Scanners feature a USB 2.0
port and cable to make it easier for you to
connect the scanner to the PC. They have
a SCSI port as well.
You can access much of the scanner
functionality directly through the PC.
For example, the Ngenuity Operator
Utility (NOU) allows you to track the
total number of scans and monitor
maintenance schedules.
Further, our user-friendly interface
with front panel functionality provides
easy access to frequently used features
and includes two user-customizable
function buttons.
Ngenuity Scanners are also easy to
clean and maintain. The scanners’
only consumables—the rollers and
tires—are easy to replace; and users
can install optional accessories, like the
imprinter, easily.
Enhanced ultrasonic multi-feed
detect and ignore
Three independently controlled,
ultrasonic sensors raised the bar on
multi-feed detection.
What’s more, the “Multi-feed Ignore”
setting on the Ngenuity Scanners now
allows you to accept scanned images and
continue scanning or alert the scanner in
advance to accept an intended multi-feed.
The “Ignore by Size” option lets you
proactively scan items—such as taped
receipts and sticky notes—that the
scanner might otherwise identify as a
multi-feed and stop.
Value, durability and performance
The Ngenuity Scanners’ steel paper path
and durable parts (including protectively
sealed CCD cameras, long-lasting LED
lights, and rollers that last for 600,000
scans) ensure that the scanners are able
to withstand the many challenges of any
hardworking production environment.
This means a low, overall cost of scanner
maintenance and ownership.
