After more than a decade of leading the fi-71x0 series of document scanners, the manufacturer has launched an innovative, improved and technology-enhanced successor to this successful series, the fi-81x0 series.
It is both a revolution and an evolution in the document scanning market thanks to many new and patented technologies.
The RICOH fi-8170 is the middle model in the 6-member family of “fi-8000" scanners and, compared to the fi-8150, it already includes all the features and technologies (such as a color backlit multi-line LCD panel and all paper protection sensors). It represents an optimal ratio of price, quality and speed, making it the most widely used model in the A4 category of automatic feeder scanners. Achieves faster scanning speed: 70 sheets/140 images per min. [A4 portrait, 200/300 dpi, color/black/grayscale], has a feeder capacity of up to 100 sheets and the power/volume/recommended daily load reaches up to 10,000 sheets per day.
For this, it includes connectivity options with the latest USB 3.2 technology, as well as LAN (RJ-45). Thus, the possibility of central management using the server technologies “Scanner Central Admin” and “PaperStream NX Manager” enables and facilitates both central setup and management, as well as PC-less scanning and storage/export of documents.
Thanks to the replacement of CCD (mirror) cameras with CIS panels, there was not only a saving of weight, dimensions, but above all energy savings!
The standard of illumination of the scanned original is, of course, LED panels, so there is no heating of the scanner or the need to wait for the optimal level of illumination. You scan within seconds of turning on the scanner.
In addition, CIS panels are enriched and enhanced with breakthrough and other patented technology (“PFU Clear Image Capture”), so that the scan results equalize or even significantly improve the results of the CCD cameras used by the manufacturer for many years (“DSLR” technology).
Another technological advantage of these scanners (without a flat bed) is the possibility of buying and installing an optional printing accessory, the so-called. “Post Imprinter”, which allows you to print the back of documents with a simple and one-line “string” (text, numbers, characters, date) immediately after it is scanned (or during scanning).
Applicable in all conceivable human sectors of business and industry, services and government. In short, wherever you encounter (even in today's digital age) a larger volume of paper and paper documents that you need to quickly scan and digitize.
