Invoices, delivery notes, reports, charts – some of the many documents businesses process every day. The DR-6050C comfortably handles them all, increasing efficiency and reducing paper workload costs.

An automatic A3 feeder deals with batches of up to 300 sheets and supports 3 different paper feed modes.

Three programmable Job Buttons makes operation simple meaning tasks such as scan-to-email and scan-to-file can be effortlessly carried out without any additional software and just with the “touch of a button”.

Scanning Simplicity
Ease of use is one of the major benefits of the CaptureOnTouch, particularly for users who are unfamiliar with document scanning and electronic data storage.

Powerful Software Applications
Canon’s versatile Capture Perfect scanning software is included for added flexibility as well as tools such as Adobe Acrobat Standard, Nuance Omnipage SE, Scansoft Paperport SE and Presto! Bizcard Reader.

Pauly Biskuit | Pauly Biskuit Relies on Printronix RFID-ready T5204r Thermal Printers to Simplify Packaging Labeling Processes

Profile
Pauly Biskuit is one of Europe’s largest baked goods manufacturers. Family owned and operated since 1894,
the company employs more than 250 workers at its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Dessau, Germany.
Situation
Each year, Pauly Biskuit produces more than 300 different types of baked goods. At the completion of each
production cycle, pastries and semi-finished products are packed in boxes, which vary by producer, and labeled
with relevant product information including sell-by date, origin and use. Pauly Biskuit was using a labeling
solution that involved storing label information for each individual product and producer on font cards, and then
manually entering that information into the printer in correspondence with production cycles. With three to four
million labels being processed each year, this manually driven process had become increasingly time
consuming. When Pauly Biskuit’s existing printers began to break down frequently, interrupting production, the
company went in search of a new printing and labeling solution.
Goals
- To reduce the cost of doing business by further automating Pauly Biskuit’s complex labeling process
- To ease integration by leveraging already established best practices
- To improve system reliability and performance for increased accuracy and faster time to market
Results
Pauly Biskuit initially installed 12 Printronix T5204r wireless LAN printers in 2005. Using Printronix PrintNet
Enterprise printer management software, the company eliminated the need to manually staff each printer, and
can now reliably control all print processes through its internal wireless network, which has significantly reduced
wait time and system downtime. The Printronix printing system is easy to use, is compatible with the company’s
existing hardware and software, and can quickly print out all common bar code standards, and numerous other
codes including EAN 13, EAN 128, EAN 8 and ITF.
Reaction
“We are extremely satisfied with the performance and reliability of the Printronix printers, with regard to their
capacity to print complex bar codes perfectly.”

The Fujitsu fi-6670A

Its automatic document feeder will handle up to 200 sheets at a time, freeing you to do other things. The hopper can accept both square edge and fanned paper stacks helping to eliminate paper jams and increase overall scanner productivity.

On top of this, the fi-6670A is able to scan paper that is up to 3m long, which enables it to digitize electrocardiograms, instrumental data readings and other long documents

Supplied with Production level VRS 4.2 Professional as standard, the fi-6670A comes loaded with a VRS CGA board that offers even better image processing functionality and performance. Its ability to create sharper images from stained documents or documents with dark colored backgrounds with this CGA board guarantees highly efficient scanning.

The fi-6670A is also bundled with ScandAll PRO image capture software giving the following features

Automatic job separation
The fi-6670A's bundled barcode and patch code reading functionality enables it to separate different jobs with its automatic job separation function. The result is improved digitizing efficiency.

Seamless Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server linkage
ScandAll PRO enables the fi-6670A to seamlessly link with Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server for easy digitized document sharing and viewing administration. The result is even easier document management.

The fi-6670A PA03576-B531 itself is loaded with 2 high end "intelligent" fi-Series functions that enable it to efficiently scan mixed batch documents containing paper of different weights, quality and sizes.

Intelligent multifeed function
The intelligent multifeed function simplifies pre-scanning preparation and improves efficiency by ignoring documents that tend to trigger false multifeed alerts, such as photo and sticky note attached documents.

Trapezoid-shaped and tab attached document cropping / punch hole removal functionality
In addition to being loaded with a function that ensures that trapezoid-shaped documents as well as index tab and sticky note attached documents are scanned in their entirety, the fi-6670A provides a function that removes the circular and angular punch hole representations that are created from scanning loose-leaf sheets, courier service forms and other similar documents.
