Self Cleaning Functions

The ion-filled breeze created
by the ionizer neutralizes the
electrical charge on the
documents to be scanned,
and reduces the amount of
paper dust that clings to
their surface. This ion-filled
breeze also flows through
the paper path and removes
paper dust from the scan­ning glass to reduce the
need for the user to clean
the glass.

The scanner feeds accurately, regardless of alignment.

*To operate the KV-SS080, the KV-S5055C is required.
The KV-SS080 does not operate as a standalone unit.

Text is printed on the

surface of the document

Text is included in

the image data

Ionizer

The brush directly cleans the scanning glass to
further prevent paper dust. This eliminates the
need for maintenance and ensures comfortable
scanning operations.

High-Reliability Scanning

Accurately Feeds Various Sized Documents

High-Speed Scanning of Sheets up to 100 feet Long

Documents with different sizes and thicknesses can all be fed
together. They can be set in center, left, or right alignment. By using
left or right single-side alignment, there is no more need to spend
time organizing documents according to their size, so scanning is
fast and easy. This function greatly increases work efficiency.

Mixed Document Feeding

Raises filing efficiency

The pre-imprinter prints text (date
and/or number) onto the surface of a
document before its image is
scanned, so the text data is included
in the scanned image data. This
improves filing efficiency.

Pre-Imprinter

The highly reliable paper feed mechanism
quickly and stably scans long documents. This
function boosts work efficiency by smoothly
scanning long documents like continuous
business forms or electrocardiograms.

Long Paper Mode

Optional Flatbed Scanner

Easily Scan Documents and Booklets Save Time by Reducing the Number of Scans

By selectively using the KV-S5055C and the
optional KV-SS080,* you can easily scan documents
and booklets, and save them in the same document.

Single User Interface

Place various sized documents on the flatbed and scan them all
at once, then crop whatever parts you need. This is convenient
for scanning multiple business cards and thick documents.

The scanning speed differs depending on the host computer, the operating system, the application, the measuring method,
the quantity of data in the image, and the paper type. The scanning speed depends on a measuring method of Panasonic.

Image Capture Plus Enables
Versatile Image Processing

A Wealth of Image Processing Functions

The fast 90-ppm* scan speed and
200-page Automatic Document Feeder
are ideal for both large-volume scanning
and dispersed input. ToughFeed,
Panasonic's unique paper feed
mechanism, also helps to minimizes
damage to important documents and
ensures more precise feeding.

Image Capture Plus is an application that transfers image data scanned by a Panasonic
high-speed document scanner to a PC in the form of an image file. This software lets you
edit scanned pages (switch pages, delete pages, etc.) intuitively using thumbnail images.
It also allows you to make various settings to facilitate complex scanning processes and
serves as a powerful tool for efficiently processing routine business work, such as filing.

Paper Feed Roller

Double Feed
Prevention Roller

When paper sliding is
detected, the double feed

pressure is increased.

Staples are quickly and accurately detected, to minimize damage to the optical glass and the document.

Side Staple

Multiple sensors are used to detect various
types of stapled documents, and to immediately
stop the scanner when stapling is detected. This
minimizes damage to both the document and
the optical glass.

Intuitive Operation

PreScan

In the preview window,
you can confirm what the
scanned image will look
like under the current
scan settings. You can
make fine adjustments to
brightness, contrast and
other parameters while
looking at the final result,
and then save the desired
scan settings. This boosts
work efficiency by
preventing wasted scans.

Ultrasonic Double-Feed Detection

Accurate Scanning

The KV-S5055C is equipped with an ultrasonic
sensor, which accurately detects double-feeding
even when scanning documents of various
thicknesses. When detected, the ultrasonic
sensor prevents double-feeding by immediately
stopping the scanning process.

Superior Roller Mechanisms

Precise Feeding

The paper feed rollers separate from the paper each time
a sheet is fed, so the tendency to double-feed caused
by the paper feed roller pressure is reduced, even
when feeding paper of different thicknesses. Any
paper sliding is also detected and the double feed
prevention roller pressure is adjusted to prevent
the paper from slipping and jamming.

Double Feed Skip (DFS) Key

Should a scan operation stop due to the detection of
double-feeding, simply press the DFS key to resume
scanning. This is convenient when you don't want
scanning to stop due to documents with things like
receipts or sticky notes attached, or envelopes.

The paper feed roller
separates from the paper
each time a sheet is fed.

Any lifting of the document is detected.

No more worries about the document's direction

Even when documents are set in different directions, this function
detects the direction of the scanned text in documents and
automatically rotates it into the correct direction.

Automatic Image Orientation

No more need to pre-sort documents

Automatic Binary/ Color Distinction allows the scanner to recognize

color and black and white pages. This feature reduces scan to file

size while promoting a more efficient scanning process.

Automatic Binary/ Color Distinction

Two-in-one convenience

Double Exposure automatically scans then saves two-sided documents into
a single-page file. It is highly effective for documents printed on both sides,
such as checks, stock certificates, post cards, and business cards.

Double Exposure

You can convert only the desired pages into electronic form

When scanning a set of documents that
contains both single-sided and double-sided sheets, this
function automatically skips over the blank sides.

Blank Page Removal

Eliminates post-processing

When you scan documents of mixed sizes, the documents are automatically
cropped and stored in the appropriate size. Also, skewed documents are
automatically straightened when they are scanned.

Automatic Crop and De-Skew

Convenient for OCR processing

Any of up to three specific color ranges
on the document can be selected as a
dropout color. This function, when used
in form processing applications, can
greatly improve OCR performance and
accuracy, resulting in increased
productivity and potential cost savings.

Multi Color Dropout

Excellent readability and accuracy

With the Dynamic Threshold function, the
background density and color are
automatically detected section by section,
and the scan setting (brightness control) is
automatically adjusted to ensure sharp
scanning of both text and images.

Dynamic Threshold

Single pass for dual output

The Multistream function enables a single scan to be
saved as two separate formats simultaneously. For
example the document will be saved in monochrome
(B/W) for OCR and archival purposes, and saved as a full
color image for short term on-screen retrieval.

Multi Stream

Punch holes from the document are

The Hole Removal function removes the
