What
is ScanOS?
IDEAL ScanOS is feature-rich scanner
operating software that lets users create an
automatic searchable database for their
scanned images. ScanOS has been enhanced
based on customer feedback. ScanOS has an
easy to use interface, user friendly icons,
and customizable toolbar to make training
new users easier. Different users can save
presets that include: scanner settings,
project names, file names and paths, making
it easy to switch between users or projects.
Users can customize the indexing to fit
their needs. With the full screen pre-scan
and on the fly settings, users can scan
quickly and easily. IDEAL ScanOS eliminates
the need to save and rescan the file.
In addition to scanning and indexing,
IDEAL ScanOS provides accurate scan to print
in B&W and color. ScanOS has direct scan
to print support to KIP, OCE, Xerox, and
latest support to the HP 4000. With IDEAL
ScanOS you can increase productivity and
accountability. All print jobs can be stored
and indexed for accounting purposes. In
addition to the single index field, ScanOS
enables you to keep track of all scan and
print jobs by sheet count, image area, etc.
With IDEAL ScanOS users can scan-to-file and
scan-to-print simultaneously.
Scanning
IDEAL’s ScanOS is flexible. The software
supports all IDEAL/Contex Scanners (starting
at 4th generation and higher), FireWire, USB,
SCSI, and TWAIN Scanners. ScanOS includes
advanced Hollerith and nudge features for
ACS Scanning.
Indexing
ScanOS provides single-field indexing for
every document scanned, and automatically
generates the filename, time & date, and
the computer operator’s name to the
database record. This allows for quick and
easy retrieval of all your scanned images.
With the ability to add and index
pre-existing documents, ScanOS can index and
manage all of your documents.
Archiving
IDEAL’s ScanOS stores drawings and index
data in an ODBC compliant archive in many
formats including PDF, TIFF, JPEG, and BMP.
This gives you the opportunity to integrate
already existing archives into ScanOS. In
addition, ScanOS has a direct upgrade path
to ScanDEX-IX and IDEAL’s Online PlanRoom
so users can access and view drawings over
the company’s network or Internet
instantly. Your ScanOS investment is
protected.
Copying
ScanOS offers an easy-to use Scan Solution
for all your large format documents (color
and black & white), even Aperture Cards.
The integrated Copy Station is used for
printing your scanned images directly,
without saving a file. You can set up
printing information for logging and billing
purposes, including: Print ID, Operator
Name, Print Time, Print Device, Print Area,
Number of Copies, Type of Device, and
Scaling. Keep track of who printed what to
whom. |
