Response Center at Kodak for further analysis. Optics The design heritage of the M-type Kodak lens used in the i700 Series Scanners comes from a high-resolution production scanner developed for complex character scanning. The lens also incorporates an infrared filter with its lead-free multiple elements. This reduces light loss and eliminates alignment of the infrared filter to the lens.

Enhanced Printer The Enhanced Printer provides a vertical print capability and supports alphanumeric characters, date, time, sequential document number and custom messages. The Enhanced Printer is unique in that the document print string can be configured to include both static information (i.e., information that stays the same for each document, such as scan station or operator) and dynamic information (i.e., information that may change for each page scanned, such as time or sequential document number).

Advanced image processing capabilities have long been the hallmark of Kodak’s document image scanners. The i700 Series Scanners advance image processing to a new level, taking all the best and adding more. Full-speed image processing in color, grayscale and black and white arenas in a scanner of this capability offers an unparalleled opportunity for today’s demanding...
Auto Color Detection Based on the color content of a document, this new feature will make it easier for customers to capture color/grayscale only when they require it, reducing document prep time, storage requirements and eliminating the need for patch sheets. If you choose to use this option, the scanner will be automatically triggered to change from the current image stream (black and white) to the alternative image stream (color/grayscale) based on the values set in Color Content, Color Amount and Color Threshold.
The i700 Series Scanners can pick up the area with the bar code as a black and white image and deliver the rest of the image in full color (high or low resolution depending upon the needs of the application).
(through OCR or ICR technology) read pertinent data without interference from the lines and boxes of the form. The i700 Series Scanners can drop out either red, green or blue. The dropout color selection (R, G, B) is changeable at the host. The scanner does more than just drop out the color.
Noise in the scanned image appears as random specks. These specks may be caused by actual noise in the original (i.e., dirt, toner specs on photo copies or mottled colors). The i700 Series Scanners give you the option to keep intermittent pixels or remove them. Turning on Noise Filter results in cleaner images and images that are compressed better.
Simultaneous Output of Color/Grayscale and Black and White Images The i700 Series Scanners can output color, grayscale, or black and white images; grayscale and black and white images; or color and black and white images without further processing required by the host (some color scanners create this type of output by having the color image converted at the host).
