Applications
The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Color Scanner
is a versatile scanner that creates images in
photo-realistic color for Sign Shops, Pre-press,
Copy Shop, POP and Display markets using large
format color graphics. It is a wide format color
scanner at an affordable price that is
programmable for TOUCAN G25 Plus Color Scanner
can be used for scan to print, color
classification for vectorization, storage,
retrieval, conversion to CAD, populating an
online planroom, and scan to print. It can
efficiently rasterize drawings up to 25” wide
(D-Size) by any length on media up to 0.6”
thick. The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Scanner
can be used stand-alone or as an integrated
component of a customized solution. This scanner
is Energy Star and RoHS Compliant.
Color Accuracy
The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Color Scanner
creates images in photo realistic colors, high
quality grayscale, and crisp, clear black and
white. Color is captured at 48 bits for maximum
color precision, passing the best 24 bits of
color data to the computer. The IDEAL/Contex
TOUCAN G25 Plus also supports 256 gray shades.
The gray shades are captured at 16 bits for
maximum precision, passing the best 8 bits of
gray shade data to the computer. The IDEAL/Contex
TOUCAN G25 Plus Scanner includes a thirty-day
timed out version of JETimage NET. This copier
interface takes advantage of the scanners Dual
2-D Adaptive enhancement features with Area
Diffusion Logic and Error Diffusion Half-toning
which allows documents containing mixed
photographic and line-art (including text) areas
to be captured with greater detail. JETimage NET
also has advanced scan to print features that
supports advanced layout options such as
paneling, tiling, and nesting of printed output
as well as tracking capability of paper and
copying usage. This new scanner incorporates the
3C Auto-Maintenance system that keeps the
cameras perfectly aligned, adjusted, and
calibrated for optimal image quality. The 3C
Auto-Maintenance system aligns and stitches the
cameras to a fraction of a pixel giving the
highest wide format image precision available.
Accuracy Lens Enhancement Technology
The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Color Scanner
uses Accuracy Lens Enhancement Technology (ALE)
that electronically maintains 0.1% +/- 1 pixel
precision across any two points of the scan line
thus exceeding even the most rigid requirements.
With this scanner there is a very high grade of
precision stability in the scanned image.
High Performance Scanning
The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Color Scanner
has variable resolution settings from 50 to 9600
dpi selectable in one dpi increments to match
user requirements. This scanner can scan a
typical D-Size monochrome original at 4.0” per
second at 400 dpi turbo and a color original at
1.5” per second at 400 dpi turbo. For
scan-to-file applications, the IDEAL/Contex
TOUCAN G25 Plus requires ScanOS, scanning and
single field indexing software, or WIDEimage,
operating software for scanning. The scanned
raster images obtained from the IDEAL/Contex
TOUCAN G25 Plus Scanner can be edited in raster
or converted to DXF vector files with WiseImage,
an optional software package available from
IDEAL. The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Scanner
supports FireWire and USB2 Connectivity. With
USB connectivity, a company can share the
scanner between users and computers without
installing extra hardware.
Scan, Index, and Edit
The IDEAL/Contex TOUCAN G25 Plus Scanner
supports color and monochrome scanning
applications. 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. ScanOS stores drawings and index data in an ODBC
compliant archive in many formats including PDF,
TIFF, JPEG, and BMP. Edit drawings in raster
with the same ease as editing a CAD file using WiseImage,
an optional intelligent raster editing software
package from IDEAL. WiseImage is a
powerful drawing editor that performs raster to
vector conversion and OCR.
Scan, Share, and Print
Provide instant network access of scanned
drawings with IDEAL’s ArchiveCenter for
Workgroups. Archive large format drawings on
a company intranet or a secure, password
protected internet with IDEAL’s ArchiveCenter
for the Enterprise. Search, retrieve, view,
and print large format drawings using only a
standard web browser. ArchiveCenter can be
upgraded to IDEAL's Online PlanRoom for
bid management, project management, or ordering
drawings.
Looking to turn your inkjet into a digital
copier? Scan large format color originals with
