For high-volume scanning operations such as service bureaus, Business Process Outsourcers (BPOs) sand corporate mailrooms, much of the document capture process is done manually.To help address these challenges, Kodak Alaris is launching two new additions to its i5000 Series Scanner family. The Kodak i5650S and i5850S Scanners offer three-pocket sorting designed for the extreme scanning demands of service bureaus, BPOs and corporate mailrooms. Combining smart sorting with high-speed throughput and superior image quality leads to increased productivity and significantly lower document capture costs.
“Other high-volume sorting scanners on the market today can only sort using vendor specific proprietary software,” said Susheel John, global category director, Scanners & Services, Kodak Alaris Information Management. “With this in mind, we designed the i5650S and i5850S Scanners to enable most sorting jobs via standard drivers such as TWAIN and ISIS. This makes it much easier for our customers to get to the next level of productivity without having to learn a completely new system.”
Applying for a loan or mortgage is a paper-intensive process. As part of the customer on-boarding process, banks need to receive original documents from applicants to meet compliance requirements. To ensure originals are returned to each applicant, documents must be carefully prepared before scanning begins, then separated once scanning is complete. This manual process can be error prone, labor intensive and costly.
The i5650S and i5850S simplify the process by reducing the amount of manual labor. Using the patch-sheet recognition feature to separate document batches, reusable patch sheets are separated and output to the rear exit tray, while original customer documents are automatically separated from the loan application pages and output to an exception tray at the front of the scanner. This significantly reduces the amount of time and labor required to complete the job.
Building on a winning platform
The new i5650S and i5850S Scanners deliver all of the benefits of the award-winning i5000 Series Scanners including excellent processing speed from 180 – 210 pages per minute (ppm). Additional features include:
- Advanced exception handling, including Interactive Multifeed Recovery, which increases hourly throughput.
- Intelligent imprinting to enable tracking of each document from the time it is scanned until it is recycled or returned to the customer.
- Three output trays (two front and one rear) to provide a separate place for collecting exception documents and reusable patch documents.
Customers can continue to take advantage of Kodak Capture Pro Software, a powerful batch capture software solution that can be integrated into their current capture environment to streamline data entry and make the most of Kodak Alaris’ Information Management technology.
The Kodak i5650S and i5850S Scanners will be available in all regions in November.
