sheet-fed color document scanner with an built-in automatic document feeder
(ADF) that can hold up to 100 sheets of papers for the unattended volume
scanning. It features optical resolution of 600 dpi, duplex (double-sided)
scanning, and extra long page support. As well, the scanner is designed with USB
hub capability.
Features of Your Scanner
The scanner comes with several important features, including the following:
• Energy-saving LED light source: Adopting LEDs as the light source, when the
scanner is detected by the system, there are no requirements for any warm-up
time before carrying out the scan, which boots your productivity and reduces
energy costs amazingly. With its stable performance, the image quality will
remain consistent even after used for a certain period of time.
• Ultrasonic Double-feed Detection — Equipped with an ultrasonic detector, the
scanner is able to detect the thickness between overlapping pages and to
prevent multiple pages from being fed together, efficiently preventing the
happens of mis-feed or double-feed when delivering papers through the
feeder.
• Chic and Easy-to-access programmable function button — The scanner is
equipped with one Select, One Scan/Stop and one Favorite buttons located
on the top of the scanner, used to automate a number of customized and
predefined operations, allowing you an intuitive and easy way to access
scanner functions.
• Additional USB hub ability — The scanner with embedded USB hub allows
you to connect an external USB device such as Microtek’s flatbed scanners,
storage devices, and hard drives, using Universal Serial Bus technology to a
single USB port.
• Duplex scanning support — Allows to scan both sides of a document in a
single pass. With this feature, the scanner can handle up to 120 ipm
(ArtixScan DI 6260S), 100 ipm (ArtixScan DI 6250S), or 80 ipm (ArtixScan
DI 6240S) in color, grayscale and black & white at 200 dpi. Please note that
the ArtixScan TS 630S only supports simplex document scanning.
• Superb ability to handle documents in versatile materials — The scanner lets
users easily digitize credit cards, business cards, bank statements, legal
documents, insurance papers, and medical records in just seconds.
• Automatic document feeder with card scanning — The automatic document
feeder can hold up to 100 sheets of papers at a time, supporting paper sizes
range from 2.75” x 3.149” (70 mm x 80 mm) to 8.85” x 118” (225 mm x

panel offers a host of features and image adjustment controls. It comes out
several distinguished advantages:
– Quick Scan — This feature enables the scanner to scan and save the
images directly as a single PDF file, no more comprehensive settings
required.
– Auto Document Rotation — With this feature, the scanner automatically
rotates every saved files in a readable direction based on a specific OCR
language selected.
– Smart Threshold — This feature enables the software to specify the best
level for a threshold used in high-contrast and black-and-white images
automatically, improving the clearance and readability of black-and-white
documents.
– Combine Images — This feature enables the software to merge two
separate images as one united image. With this function, you do not
need other after-scan editing program to modify your scanned documents.
– Smart Document Enhancement — With this feature, the scanner
automatically brings out and improves readability of text and removes
unwanted background color (i.e., green, red, or blue) in/from a document
that includes multi image elements.
– Barcode Separator — With this feature, you can batch scan documents
without starting and stopping each time a new file begins by using
barcode numbers on the documents. It saves you huge amounts of time
and money to organize, to index and to search files of documents in
seconds, enhancing the efficiency and productivity of file management.
– Remove Blank Page — With this feature, blank pages are automatically
detected and removed by the software when scanning a stack of
documents. This function is quite helpful especially when users are
scanning double-sided documents and some of the pages only have text
on the front side.
– Remove Punch Hole — With this feature, the software automatically
detects the location of the punch holes on the scanned documents and
fills them in white. This function works for most common hole puncher
standards.
– Save multiple images as a single file : This advanced feature allows user
to save multiple scanned images as a single file, depending on the
number of the scanned images that are defined for document archival.
– Auto-crop and auto-deskew : The auto-crop function automatically
detects the size of the original image, crops the full scan frame to fit the
image, and removes unwanted black borders. The auto-deskew function
automatically corrects distorted images for proper alignment.
