Fill your office with productivity,
not equipment.

Do it better. Do it faster. Do more with less—yet maintain your
professional image. Sound familiar? Then you need the Canon CD-4050
Digital Document Recorder. In one compact, easy-to-use desktop
system, you get everything you need to capture and store documents
(up to 20,000 pages*) on economical CD-Recordable discs, without using
a complex PC-based system. You even get a host of automatic indexing
functions and network scanning features. Small in size yet big in
performance, it’s a more efficient way to scan, store, and share
information electronically, making it easy to retrieve, view, and move
documents across an entire organization or around the world.

The most valuable technology
is technology that values time.

Deadlines don’t wait; neither should you. Canon’s multipurpose
CD-4050 scans as many as 39 letter-sized originals per minute, and
automatically scans two-sided originals with a single pass, essentially
doubling productivity. With Text Mode and Photo Mode, plus 255-step
Brightness Control, the CD-4050 provides the best quality output for text,
halftones, and continuous-tone input. The convenient 100-sheet Feeder
Tray allows you to scan documents of varying sizes, from business card
to legal. That’s because the CD-4050 automatically determines—and
adjusts to—the size and thickness of the document, all of which does
wonders for your workflow.

More than a touch easier to use.

All the tools and procedures an operator needs—from scanning to
indexing—are accessed through the 6.5-inch color touch-screen. A
single, integrated interface that’s simple to use, it allows scanned
documents to be retrieved and viewed, page by page. You can rotate,
reduce, or enlarge on-screen images, and scroll with incredible ease.
You can even rename items or make copies, for enhanced document
management flexibility.

Smart Filing

™

Several auto-indexing functions streamline the document-management
process. Setting the CD-4050 to read bar codes or MICR information
assigns such information to a searchable data field. Selective OCR

▲

eliminates the need for manual data entry and can transform the first
page of an image document
into a searchable text
or HTML file.

Digital Document Recorder

A more efficient way
to manage your
documents.
And your business.

The power of information defines
customer relationships, drives
strategic decisions, and affects
workflow. If it isn’t the very product
your company sells, it’s probably one
of your business’ most valuable
assets. And when information is
document-based—claims, invoices,
checks, receipts, etc.—it is inherently
related to productivity. Manage it
well, and suddenly your business is
more productive than ever.
