1. Describe the product – purpose (what business need does the product address)

ADVANCED COLOR SCANNING FOR PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT The M-S 655, designed on Agfa’s ADMIS S61 technology, is the fastest full-color production scanner available today (320 ipm). Utilizing the latest CCD technology and resolution as high 400 dpi, the M-S S655 provides outstanding conversion of documents to full color, grayscale or Bitonal images with superior output quality for improved forms processing including OCR/ICR/NHR. The MS 655 features a one-of-a-kind Zoning Processor that allows user to define multiple zones with varying properties creating multiple images simultaneously in color, Bitonal and/or grayscale from one document without the use of multiple image processes!

2. Describe the product – target applications

The age of color in the business world is here. Black and white printing is almost non-existent and companies depend heavily on the World Wide Web for day-to-day operations! With so much color around us, archiving systems require color to accurately process documents into document management systems. Color scanning is especially important to companies that rely heavily on FORMS PROCESSING in their imaging applications. Color scanning improves image quality, pixel accuracy, and image resolution, essential to accuracy of OCR/OMR recognition. From Tax Returns to product manuals and scan to web applications, color imaging’s future is today!
