"The fi-7900 achieves scanning speeds of 140 ppm/280 ipm (A4 landscape, color, 200/300 dpi)*3, is capable of scanning up to as many as 120,000 sheets a day, and is highly optimized for centralized scanning", said PFU Limited’s Corporate Senior Vice President & Head of Imaging Business Group, Yasunori Miyauchi. "Our greatest consideration goes out to operators, who actually use the scanner. The scanner provides high quality technology for reliable scanning, a user-friendly design inherited from our high-end scanners, as well as enhanced image processing functions. Users can enjoy comfortable scanning while improving their work efficiency significantly.”



Key features:
Enhanced productivity for high-volume centralized scanning work

  • Prevent errors with reliable feeding functions
    The Automatic Separation Control function is an industry-first*4 technology for image scanners to adjust torque on brake rollers by observing the slip ratio of papers, that can differ slightly depending on frictional wear and the amount of dust stuck on the rollers. This reduces the need for manual torque adjustments and frees you from multi-feeds and paper pick-up issues. The Skew Reducer also helps improve feeding performance and prevents re-scanning that can result from document edges getting cut off.

  • Reduce workload before and after scanning
    With the independent side guides, you can easily align edges of variously sized documents when loading them on the scanner. To ensure that documents are neatly stacked after scanning, the improved Stacking Control function controls paper output speed, and the Elevator Stacker automatically adjusts stacker position according to the amount of ejected paper. These functions make it easy for operators to collect scanned documents from the scanner.

  • Scan any document with a single scanner
    The scanner handles various types of business documents so that you can get all scanning work done with a single scanner. By simply changing the feed mode to Manual Feed Mode, you can easily scan thick documents such as drawings folded in half, multi-layered receipts, and envelopes.


Effective data utilization with the advanced software

The latest PaperStream IP, scanner driver for fi Series scanners, provides easier batch scanning and enhanced OCR. These functionalities work seamlessly with PaperStream Capture to offer a wider variety of batch scanning features and assist operators feed information into their organization workflows.

  • Convenient batch scanning
    PaperStream IP offers new functions for easy batch sorting through precise registration functionalities. After completing document format registration and setting configuration, the Automatic Profile Selection function recognizes document formats for each scanned document. Pre-set configurations are then utilized to specify image processing settings for each format. With this new function, there is no need to adjust settings for every scan, even without the assistance of information like barcodes, separating documents.

  • High OCR accuracy with enhanced binarization technology
    PaperStream IP now offers image processing technologies that contribute to more accurate OCR. Advanced Cleanup Technology enables stronger character recognition functionalities, by providing new functions such as reversed type extraction, halftone removal and stamp removal. These new enhancements allow you to fully utilize data from scanned documents.


Stress-free usability with an environment and user-friendly design

  • Environment-friendly
    As a green product certified with the latest ENERGY STAR Version 3, you can boost your productivity without any concern about impacting the environment.

  • Scan comfortably
    By using the operation panel and LCD, operators can scan directly from the scanner with the job-registration function, and complete various operations such as adjusting scanning settings and checking existing error statuses. The scanner’s low profile design enables comfortable scanning even while sitting down in your office. Its compact size requires minimum space so that you can enjoy using free space as needed for your own work.

  • Clean the scanner easily
    Cleaning Mode now makes your maintenance routines much easier. The LED inside the scanner makes it simply easier to spot areas that need cleaning.
