KODAK i4850 A3 Production Scanner 160ppm 320ipm 500-Sheet ADF USB 3.2

Product Features

The KODAK i4850 is a compact, high-performance A3 production document scanner designed for organizations that require high-speed scanning, dependable paper handling and a smaller desktop footprint. It is suitable for centralized scanning departments, financial institutions, government organizations and document-processing service providers.

The scanner delivers throughput speeds of up to 160 pages per minute and 320 images per minute. Its recommended daily volume of up to 150,000 pages supports demanding production-scanning environments with substantial document-processing requirements.

A 500-sheet automatic document feeder enables large batches to be processed with fewer paper-loading interruptions. The scanner supports paper weights ranging from 45 to 200 g/m² and documents measuring from 50.8 × 63.5 mm up to 305 mm wide and 9.1 metres long.

Documents can exit through the front output tray or through the rear when the straight-through paper path is manually selected. This paper-path flexibility can support long documents and media requiring a flatter route through the scanner.

SurePath intelligent document feed technology combines controlled stacking, enhanced jam recovery, Intelligent Document Protection, interactive multifeed recovery, length-based multifeed detection, ultrasonic multifeed technology and metal detection.

Interactive Multifeed Recovery allows operators to review potential multifeeds and decide whether to accept, ignore or rescan an image before it is transferred to the connected application. This helps reduce unnecessary batch interruptions and rescanning.

Intelligent Document Protection monitors document movement to help prevent potential paper damage. Metal detection identifies staples, paper clips and other metallic objects that could damage documents or interrupt scanning.

The scanner uses dual white LED illumination with CCD scanning technology. It provides a maximum optical and output resolution of 600dpi, with 256-level 8-bit grayscale output, 24-bit colour output and 48-bit colour capture.

A 3.5-inch graphical colour touchscreen LCD with operator control buttons provides direct access to scanner functions, alerts and job settings. Operator overrides help users manage exceptions without unnecessarily stopping the entire scanning workflow.

The KODAK i4850 supports digital and physical imprinting options for workflows requiring document identification, tracking or reference information. Imprinting can assist organizations with maintaining document control during production scanning.

USB 3.2 Gen 1×1 connectivity provides a direct connection to a compatible workstation. Standard driver and software compatibility includes ISIS, TWAIN, WIA, Linux TWAIN and SANE, along with KOFAX certification.

Optional KODAK Capture Pro Software and Info Input Solution can be added for expanded document capture, indexing and information-processing requirements. The scanner also supports common image, document, searchable PDF and Microsoft Office file formats.

Scanned information is processed exclusively through volatile memory. This helps ensure that captured image data is effectively erased when the scanner is shut down.
