Overview:

Armed with a bevy of little features that make a big difference for companies across industries, Ngenuity saves you valuable time and guarantees optimal image quality every time you scan.

Productivity:

In addition to fast speeds, Ngenuity features smart paper handling and large feeder tray capacity to improve efficiency and ensure that you spend less time hassling with document preparation.

Ngennuity is a Sprinter:
Building on our long history of scanner innovation, we've equipped Ngenuity with everything you need to build more efficiency into your document management process. 

Scan The Widest Range of Documents:
No matter what industry you're in, we know you have to scan a lot of documents - including standard-sized invoices and bills as well as thin, long or even thick documents that can't make the turn through a traditional rotary path.  That's why we've outfitted Ngenuity with two paper paths.

Equipped with a rotary and a straight pass through paper path, Ngenuity scans a wider range of documents than any other scanner in its class*.  From EKG strips to card stock and photos to rice paper, Ngenuity can accommodate the diverse paper needs of just about any industry.  The rotary paper path can handle most documents such as invoices, forms and contracts while the straight pass through path is ideal for very long or thick documents. 

Additionally, Ngenuity features special document modes that auto-adjust feeding and transport settings for very long, folded and fragile documents.

Scan ore, Scan Faster and  Load Less:
Ngenuity's high-capacity feeder tray holds 700 documents — 40 percent more than other scanners in its class — helping you spend more time scanning and less time loading documents.

The feeder features Variable Feeder Tray Capacity control, which accommodates almost any batch size and is smart enough to remember and auto-adjust to your last batch size.  What does this add up to?  Freedom from preset limitations and time saved when loading and switching batches. 

Plus, with an unlimited daily duty cycle and speeds of up to 150 pages per minute (ppm) at 200 dpi in bitonal and color, Ngenuity helps you get more of the high-quality digital images you need — fast.  With some components that have been tested to last up to 50 million scans, Ngenuity also offers long-term reliability.

Bid Farewell to Multifeeds:
We were the first to use Ultrasonic Multifeed Detection technology and with three independently controlled ultrasonic sensors on Ngenuity, we're upping the ante to ensure that all of your documents are scanned correctly.

The improved "Multifeed Ignore" feature allows you to accept scanned images and continue scanning or preemptively accept an intended multifeed.  The "Ignore by Size" feature offers additional flexibility by allowing you to scan items such as taped receipts and sticky notes that the scanner might otherwise recognize as a multifeed and stop.

Connect with Ease:
With a USB 2.0 port and cable, Ngenuity makes it easy to connect to the PC and access much of the software and scanner functionality.  For those who need it, Ngenuity is SCSI ready as well.

Through the PC, you can access the Ngenuity Operator Utility, a handy tool that lets you track the total number of scans, monitor maintenance schedules and access cleaning menus. 

Plus, Ngenuity features a user-friendly interface with front panel functionality that offers easy access to frequently used features and includes two user-customizeable function buttons.  This way, you can customize the scanner so the features you need are at your fingertips.  All in all, Ngenuity makes scanning easier than ever before.

Image Quality:

SharpShooter^™ camera technology and reliable LED lights team up to offer picture-perfect image quality and improve View InfoTrends Videoforms processing capabilities.  Onboard image enhancement features further optimize image quality without sacrificing speed.

The Ngenuity advantage:
With industry-leading camera technology and long-lasting reliable LED lights, Ngenuity provides picture-perfect image quality every time you scan.

Upgrade to High-Definition Images:
Ngenuity's SharpShooter^™ Trilinear CCD cameras join forces with the scanner's white LED lights to produce high-quality digital images consistently.  The advanced camera technology delivers 600 dpi optical capture and output, while the white LED lights require no warm-up time, which means they're ready to scan and produce crystal-clear digital images the minute the scanner is turned on. 

This reliable image quality boosts, OCR, ICR and barcode recognition rates and ensures more accurate forms processing.  Plus, it minimizes the need for camera calibrations.  In fact, the cameras on Ngenuity only need to be calibrated 1-2 times per year.

Optimized Image Quality without Sacrificing Speed:
We were the first to include VirtualRescan®(VRS) technology onboard our scanners, and we've done it again with Ngenuity.  VRS 4.2 Professional technology is built into the scanner's hardware.  This means you get all of the advanced VRS image enhancement features and error resolution tools, including more precise image cropping and advanced color management, which can improve image quality on documents scanned in color, without sacrificing speed.  Now, that's true Ngenuity.

Low Cost Scanning:

Ngenuity features long-lasting parts, a low cost of consumables and comes with everything you need to start scanning.  In other words, Ngenuity offers top value.

Ngenuity is economical:
Ngenuity's reliable, long-lasting parts ensure that you spend less time (and money) on consumables and maintenance, and more time boosting your bottom line with a streamlined imaging operation.

Keep you Business Rolling with Long-Lasting Parts and Easy Maintenance:
With a steel body and durable parts, Ngenuity is ready to work as hard as you do.

The CCD cameras are protectively sealed and able to withstand dust and the occasional staple.  The scanner features rollers that last for 600,000 scans, long-lasting LED lighting and cameras that only need to be calibrated once or twice a year.

Ngenuity's consumables, like the rollers, are easy to replace.  And since Ngenuity includes fewer consumables you have a lower overall cost of maintenance.

Optional accessories, like the imprinter with intelligent time and date stamping, are also simple for users to install.
