AUTOMATED FUNCTIONS TAKE THE WORK OUT OF SCANNING FROM START TO FINISH:
Advanced automated functions ensure the N1800 digitizes your documents with remarkable precision and efficiency. Produce beautiful scans quickly without barely lifting a finger.
Marker Index; this function detects words marked with a highlighter and embeds them as keywords in PDF files
Paper Size Detection; means a mixed sized batch of documents can be scanned and only the exact paper size will be displayed
Colour Detection; colour or black and white elements will be scanned as such thereby limiting file size
Blank Page Removal; Scanning in duplex mode will mean mixed single and double sided documents will have blank pages removed
Auto Deskew; if the document is scanned at an angle it will automatically be straightened
Auto Orientation; if a text-based document is scanned upside down it will automatically be rotated
FAST AND ACCURATE SCANNING
The N1800 delivers scanning speeds of up to 20 ppm / 40 ipm (Colour, A4 size at 200 and 300 dpi). Very accurate ultrasonic sensors detect when overlapping pages (multifeed) enter the imaging device.
ON-BOARD TOUCH PANEL MAKES OPERATING SCANSNAP TRULY EASY:
The N1800 features a large, vibrant touch panel, which utilizes ‘One Push’ interface, so anyone can operate the imaging device with ease.
SERIOUS SECURITY FEATURES
The N1800 comes armed with advanced security features to ensure safe and secure operation among multiple users.
- Login authentication strictly controls what people can do with the scanner.
- Scanned data can be output as password-locked PDF files.
- Advanced security measures guard scanned data from prying eyes.
Encryption
Scanned data is encrypted and temporarily stored in the scanner while it is being processed for e-mail, faxing, printing or storage. Even if an unauthorised party analyzes the internal memory, they would not be able to decipher the data. Scanned image data deletion The N1800 automatically deletes image data from its internal memory after the processed data is sent to an e-mail, fax, printer or a network folder, Even if an error results in data remaining in the memory, the data is automatically erased the next time the scanner is started up.
Secure initialise
When the N1800 is initialized, free regions of the internal memory can be overwritten with completely random, meaningless data. As an added security measure, a new encryption key is generated after user information is deleted. All of this ensures that no trace of old user data can be retrieved from open memory.
Customise it to the needs of each user
Administrators can customise the touch panel menu and scan settings of the N1800 to suit the work of a specific user or user group registered to the scanner. This way people who log on to the scanner will always find it optimized for them and easy to use.
VERSATILE RANGE OF USE FROM 'SOHO' TO LARGE ENTERPRISES
Connect with a variety of server types
The N1800 satisfies the digitizing needs of small networks that use a file server and e-mail server. It’s also right at home with more complex LDAP/LDAPS authentication-based networks, integrated with Microsoft Exchange Server, SharePoint and other application hubs.
Develop applications with the N1800 SDK*
An SDK is available for the N1800 to develop applications (called Add-ins) and to expand the device’s functions to meet the needs of your business. *The SDK (software development kit) allows for the development of scanner controlled workplace applications.
The N1800 SDK is free to download. Support is provided for a fee.
