Choosing a Document Scanner
Whether you choose to purchase a document scanner or use your existing multi-function printer and copier (MFP) to scan files, using proper equipment for the job is essential. Desktop document scanners are available in a variety of sizes and speeds and designed for fast and efficient scanning. MFPs scan documents as well but tend to lack some of the additional functionality needed for fast and productive document scanning.
Look for these feature when selecting a scanner:
- Auto-feed capability
- Duplex (both sides) scanning
- Auto deskew (straightens crooked images)
- Auto exposure control
- Batch scanning and barcode separation
