Knowing about Your Scanner
The ArtixScan DI 2125c is a sheet-fed color document scanner with an built-in
automatic document feeder that can hold up to 20 sheets of papers for the
unattended volume scanning. It features 600 dpi optical resolution, 65-inch
(1651 mm) long document scanning support, and has a throughput run of 15
pages (simplex) or 30 images per minute (duplex) in color.
Features of the ArtixScan DI 2125c
The ArtixScan DI 2125c comes with several important features, including the
following:
• Portable, compact and convenient — With a perfect small size, the ArtixScan
DI 2125c reforms your imagination about a sheet-fed scanner. From the office
to the home, the coffee shop to the hotel, the ArtixScan DI 2125c easily
affords users portable and mobile opportunities for document capture on the
go.

2125c lets users easily digitize credit cards, business cards, bank statements,
legal documents, insurance papers, and medical records in just seconds.
• Duplex scanning in a single pass— Allows to scan both sides of one sheet in
a single pass. With this feature, the scanner can handle up to 40 ipm in
grayscale/black & white and 30 ipm in color at 200 dpi.
• Automatic document feeder with card scanning — The automatic document
feeder can hold up to 20 sheets of papers (0.05" /1.25 mm thickness) at a
time, supporting dimensions from 3.15" x 2.1" (80 mm x 52 mm) to 8.5" x
65" (216 mm x 1651 mm).
• Energy-saving LED light source — Adopting LEDs as the light source, when
the scanner is detected by the system, there are no requirements for any
warm-up time before carrying out the scan, which boots your productivity and
reduces energy costs amazingly. With its stable performance, the image
quality will remain consistent even after used for a certain period of time.

• New and Advanced Microtek ScanWizard DI software — All-in-one control
panel offers a host of features and image adjustment controls. Supporting the
TWAIN driver, ScanWizard DI also features full document scanning tools and
on-screen proofing. Its multi-scanning area and preview option allow you to
obtain quick scans in the preview window. It comes out several distinguished
advantages:
– Barcode Separator — With this feature, you can batch scan documents
without starting and stopping each time a new file begins by using
barcode numbers on the documents. It saves you huge amounts of time
and money to organize, to index and to search files of documents in
seconds, enhancing the efficiency and productivity of file management.
– Remove Blank Page — With this feature, blank pages are automatically
detected and removed by the software when scanning a stack of
documents. This function is quite helpful especially when users are
scanning double-sided documents and some of the pages only have text
on the front side.
– Remove Punch Hole — With this feature, the software automatically
detects the location of the punch holes on the scanned documents and
fills them in white. This function works for most common hole puncher
standards.
– Paper count — The paper count allows user to keep track of all scan
actions from both flatbed and ADF. This feature helps to estimate when
you may need to replace the rubber or separation pad, or to apply
maintenance and service to your scanner, making the use of your scanner
more effectively.
– Save multiple images as a single file — This advanced feature allows
user to save multiple scanned images as a single file, depending on the
number of the scanned images that are defined for document archival.
– Auto-crop and auto-deskew — The auto-crop function automatically
detects the size of the original image, crops the full scan frame to fit the
image, and removes unwanted black borders. The auto-deskew function
automatically corrects distorted images for proper alignment.
– Color dropout — Red, green and blue colors can be dropped out to allow
for clearer and more accurate forms processing with problematic color
documents.
– Preset Setting — This feature allows you to save the predefined scanning
values, and then retrieve them later for scanning same types of materials,
which brings fast and convenient access for users.
– Document Enhancement — This feature brings out and improves the
readability of text in a document that includes other elements such as
color, pictures, or graphs.
