Printing & Scanning Solutions Introduces New Pen-Sized Full-Page Colour & Mono Portable Scanner



Patented DocuPen Scanner features rechargeable unit and enhanced colour scanner technology.



(PRWEB) February 2, 2006



Printing & Scanning Solutions Ltd. (PASS), a provider of printing & scanning equipment and consumables, is launching the new DocuPen Colour & Mono scanner in the UK. The DocuPen is a patented, fully portable full-page colour scanner that is the size of pen, yet weighs less than 50 grams and is only 20cm long.



While traditional pen scanners only read individual lines of text and are unable to scan graphics, the DocuPen scans an entire page of text and graphics as fast as 4 seconds. Typically, the DocuPen stores up to 100 pages of mixed text and graphics in 2Mb of memory. The unit will also accept optional MicroSD memory cards of 128Mb or 256Mb. The scanner meets the need for quick, convenient out-of-office scanning of most flat documents including text pages or pictures at a resolution of 100-400dpi.



Manufactured by Planon, the scanner includes a rechargeable feature that allows it to remain perpetually charged without utilising a separate charger. Once a user plugs the unit a computer's USB port to download the scanned information, the scanner's lithium-ion battery is automatically recharged.



The device also features a dual-roller guiding system and optical registration technology to enhance the user experience by creating a smoother scanning operation and a more accurate scan. The dual-roller guiding system includes strategically placed rollers around the scanner lens to distribute operator's pressure evenly for smooth and easy scans.



Using optical registration technology, the scanner can create a highly accurate scan using its optical timing and registration system.



The DocuPen answers the need for lightweight portable scanners on the road and even inside the office or home. Users can easily scan multiple types of documents, such as letters, magazines, blueprints, sketches, then download to a computer and print or send them as email attachments.



"The scanner is ideal for on-the-road sales staff, teachers, students, doctors, engineers, and more to benefit from an easy-to-use, lightweight solution."Said Jim Fender, Printing & Scanning Solutions Managing Director.



"We're also bundling the unit with a lightweight portable printer for those that want to create a printout while on the move."



The DocuPen includes ScanSoft's PaperPort OCR software to manage scanned documents and connect to popular e-mail and fax clients, text editors, PDF creators, and word processing packages. Users can make changes to their scanned documents with editing tools that allow them to crop and rotate images, add annotations, highlight text and draw with a freehand tool.



The product, from PASS, is available in the UK at http://www. pass-barcodes. co. uk/docupen. html (http://www. pass-barcodes. co. uk/docupen. html)
