Addressing All The Challenges
Ease of use is especially valuable in shared education environments. With preset workflows, teachers, professors, students and administrators can quickly send scanned materials to desired destinations with minimal training.
PFU’s iiGA system-on-a-chip performs automatic rotation and blank-page removal. Mixed-batch handling, overlap detection, image monitoring, and paper-protection technologies support reliable processing while helping safeguard important instructional, student, and administrative documents.
Schools, colleges, and universities must manage growing digital workflows while still handling large volumes of paper-based forms, transcripts, identification cards, instructional materials and other records. Administrators and educators need efficient, easy-to-use ways to digitize these materials while controlling costs and working with limited IT resources. Students also need to keep assignments, notes, research materials, forms and handouts organized and accessible.
The compact, affordable RICOH SP-2240N addresses all these challenges with business-class scanning for shared education environments.
