1.1 Main Features

This section explains about the main features of this product. The scanner is equipped with the following features:

High speed scanning

Realizes a scanning speed of 60 ppm/120 ipm (fi-7160/fi-7260) (*1), or 80 ppm/160 ipm (fi-7180/fi-7280) (*1). Furthermore, you can load up to 80 sheets of documents for continuous scanning which allows you to quickly digitize a large volume of documents.

LCD

The scanner mounts the LCD that displays the operational settings for scanning documents, the number of sheets scanned, and error status. It is used to easily check the status of the scanner.

Improved efficiency for pre-scan work

The scanner can perform "batch scanning" which allows you to scan documents with different paper weights and sizes at once, simplifying the process of sorting the documents before scanning.

Reduced work loss caused by multifeeds

The scanner mounts an ultrasonic multifeed sensor that accurately detects "multifeed" errors where two or more sheets are fed through the scanner at once. This multifeed detection is reliable even when scanning a mixed batch of documents with different paper weights and sizes, avoiding potential work loss.

Intelligent Multifeed function

When there is paper of the same size attached to a designated location on the page, the Intelligent Multifeed function enables the scanner to recognize the location of the attachment. This allows you to continue scanning instead of pausing the scan by detecting every paper attachment as multifeed. Furthermore, the "paper protection" function will reduce the risk of damaging your valuable documents.

Paper protection function by detecting paper jam noise

This function reduces the risk of having the documents damaged by stopping the scan when the scanner detects paper jam noise.

Advanced image processing function

The scanner's automatic detection function outputs images in color or monochrome by the document content.

Imprinter option

Imprinter is available as an option, which is often demanded for managing/verifying documents. Having the capability to print on the scanned documents could drastically improve usability. The imprinter can be installed on fi-7160/fi-7180.

Scanning on black background

Black document pad is available as an option, which allows you to perform scanning on black background when using the flatbed. It can be used to automatically correct skewed images or accurately detect the size of the scanned document. The black document pad can be used on fi-7260/fi-7280.

Capable of scanning photographs, clippings, and documents larger than A4/Letter size

The Carrier Sheet, which is available as an option, allows you to scan documents that are larger than A4/Letter size, as well as non-standard size documents such as photographs and clippings. You can load multiple Carrier Sheets or mix it with regular documents in the same batch.

Centralized management of multiple scanners

The bundled "Scanner Central Admin Agent" application allows you to manage multiple scanners together. For example, you can update the scanner settings and drivers, as well as monitor the operating status of each scanner.
