fi-5900C – A3 production volume document scanner
The fi-5900C – built for volume scanning
In defining and developing the fi-5900C, Fujitsu has focused its expertise
to deliver a truly unique, next-generation production level device that
ENERGY STAR ® compliant
can withstand any comparison in terms of productivity, versatility,
reliability, ease of use and ROI maximisation. This device sets out to
do what a production scanner should do first and foremost: process
paper efficiently, smoothly and quickly, whilst at the same time
minimising the pre- and post-processing task for the operator.
The fi-5900C scans a wider range of paper qualities with much higher reliability,
and whilst continuously feeding paper batches scanned images are processed and enhanced on the fly.
The fi-5900C provides selectable processing options through TWAIN or ISIS driver settings and by utilising
its on-board Kofax VRS 4.0 Plus interface module. The combination of scanning speed, ergonomic design and
paper handling functionalities, plus the vast range of built in image processing and enhancement possibilities,
minimises total operating time required to scan a predefined document volume.
Scanning Speed and Quality
New high speed CCD technology and latest image processing
circuitry increase the overall processing speed. Even at resolutions
of 300 dpi, 100 pages per minute or 200 images per minute can be
continuously captured in colour or monochrome mode. At the
same time, custom made CCD cameras enable brighter, more
crisp and secure image capture of even oversized or extremely
skewed documents, without losing information on the paper
documents' outer margins.
Multi-zoning reliability
Ultrasonic sensors greatly increase the reliability of double feed
detection, especially when processing mixed document types.
The fi-5900C makes use of a combination of three individual
ultrasonic sensors. These can be set to detect or ignore specified
Superior paper processing and continuous
document protection
The fi-5900C combines paper transport characteristics that ensure
safe and smooth processing. This starts when placing a document
batch onto the scanner's feeder tray, which allows for any desired

support
Inside the scanner's chassis, multiple sensors monitor the alignment
of a paper sheet, its speed and transport criteria. Any registration
of abnormal paper behaviour will interrupt the transport process
before the sheet would pass the scanning zone, thus protecting
the high quality CCD modules from possible damage.

identify an overskew incident
and interrupt the scanning
process to prevent the
document from being
harmed or destroyed.
Documents that have passed the sensor zone are then captured
within a long, 100% straight scanning zone featuring high speed
CCD modules with ultra bright lamps. The images that are
produced by these modules are crisper, sharper and show
significantly less colour slippage.
When exiting the scanner body, documents are stacked on an
active tray that lowers itself as the batch increases. Sheet by sheet
is neatly stacked so the operator can quickly proceed with post
processing after the batch has been completely captured.
Complete corner capture
The fi-5900C features multiple sensors that recognise the leading
and trailing edges of documents and monitor the paper's path
through the scanner. They ensure that paper is scanned until the
trailing edge has passed the scanning zone. This is additionally
supported by the broader width of the custom made high speed
CCD modules.
VRS 4.0 Plus included
The fi-5900C is fully equipped with a Kofax VRS 4.0 Plus hardware
module that can be used for adding advanced image enhancement
operations to the scanning process. These can even be combined
to receive digital document images that show high visual quality
and require little or no additional manual interference. Some of
the most advanced options include:
