KEY FEATURES

The Colortrac Professional MFP-ready Solution includes the SmartLF SC MFP Series wide format scanner, designed to scan images fast at the optimum resolution required to capture the original image detail without compromising quality. Colortrac’s SingleSensor technology and ClearView instant-on bi-directional LED illumination system produce up to 1200 dpi of uncompromising resolution. Whatever condition of the original, SingleSensor produces unrivalled accurate image scans, even if the original is folded, creased or crumpled. ClearView’s even lighting prevents shadows and creases and combined with the Colortrac’s SureDrive roller feed system, provides even pressure across the full width of the document, pushing it against the scan glass at the critical moment of capture. The Smart LF SC MFP Series supports colour management workflows and can capture a colour gamut that far exceeds the sRGB colour spaces, used as an industry recognised standard.

The Colortrac Professional MFP-ready Solution is ideal for boosting productivity. In addition to fast scan speeds, even at high resolution, the SC MFP Series features the new SuperSpeed USB 3.0 digital interface. SuperSpeed data transfer means there are fewer communication bottlenecks and you can always scan the largest documents in the greatest detail fast. Colortrac’s ClearView LED lighting system uses instant-on low energy illumination technology and is Energy Star qualified. The large staging platform makes loading documents into the scanner fast and easy. Scanned documents exit at the rear or with the Document Return Guide, documents return to the front. The SmartLF SC MFP Series is designed specifically to auto-size documents face up in the centre of the scanner, which helps the operator see what they are scanning and load creased documents more effectively. Colortrac’s WinSync optimises windows driver technology that allows you to easily connect Colortrac scanners to your PC.

The Colortrac Professional MFP-ready Solution includes SmartWorks TOUCH MFP software, a touch-screen/mouse and keyboard operated Windows scanning software exclusively for Colortac Professional MFP-ready Solutions. Compatible with Windows 10, 8,7, and Vista, SmartWorks TOUCH MFP features pre-set colour, dpi and clean up from Document Type and allows you to send a copy of the original directly to your printer, or scan a copy to disk, USB drive or email. SmartWorks TOUCH MFP software allows you to reprint previously scanned originals, make multiple copies of an original, enlarge or reduce the size of a copy and prints/copy to any Windows Printer.

SmartWorks TOUCH MFP software features ScanOnce technology which means no need to preview scans to adjust settings for a rescan because all editing is applied after the scan. ScanOnce saves the full dpi and allows the user to zoom, pan and edit on screen. ScanOnce Preview allows for real-time adjustment of images before copying, printing or saving. SmartWorks TOUCH MFP software supports single page PDF, PDF/A, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and TIFF G4 file formats.

Colortrac Professional MFP-ready Solution includes a fully height-adjustable Repro Stand, minimising the combined footprint of the scanner and printer and creating a practical, professional copy and scan workstation. The wide format scanner is positioned at the optimum height above your large format printer (large format printer not included) and the Repro Stand accommodates a PC, flat screen and keyboard (PC, flat screen and keyboard not included).The Repro Stand conforms to VESA PC monitor standards, so virtually any large format printer, PC, flat screen and keyboard can be used.

The Colortrac SmartLF SC 42 MFP scans up to 42 inches/106.7 cm and can take a maximum media width up to 44 inches/111.7 cm. The Colortrac SmartLF SC MFP Series accepts media up to 0.08 inches (2.0mm) thick. The minimum media size the Colortrac SmartLF SC MFP Series can scan is 6 x 6 inches/15.2 x 15.2 cm. Maximum image length for scanning is 96 inches (2438mm) using SmartWorks TOUCH MFP software (included). The Colortrac SmartLF SC 42 MFP has a maximum of 50,400 pixels.

Colortrac SmartLF SC MFP Series incorporates propriety technologies unique to Colortrac scanners. These technologies include SingleSensor, ClearView, SureDrive, Firefly and WinSync. Colortrac’s SingleSensor scanning is a patented technology which combines contact image sensors (CIS) in a robust, single-piece unit, enabling a significantly higher optical quality and dramatically increasing pixel alignment stability. The SmartLF SC MFP Series has 30,000 short image-path sensors and a custom designed advanced bi-directional LED lighting system. The bi-directional lighting system, called ClearView, combines 96 to 144 extra long-life switchable red/green/blue LEDs across the full width of the scanner for optimum illumination and instant-on scanning capability. SingleSensor and ClearView work together to reduce optical errors to a minimum ensuring all scan and copy data is of the highest possible colour and dimensional accuracy. Because each sensor is on the same imaging line combined with bright, even light from the LEDs across the full width of the scanner, scans have a wide and consistent colour gamut across the full width of the document. Colortrac’s SingleSensor is colour calibrated and has a scan accuracy of +/-0.1% +/-1 pixel.

Colortrac’s SureDrive system is an innovative active pressure roller that gently presses the document against the SingleSensor. The single, full-width, motor-driven hold -up roller eliminates variations in document speed or feed inconsistencies, eliminating the possibility of misaligned data. The soft pressure roller running the full length of the SingleSensor allows the scanner to dynamically respond and actively work against the optical disturbances caused by document lift and paper creasing. Shadow effects in folds of creased documents are also reduced. This technology ensures that delicate or fragile media such as newspapers and old blueprints can be safely and accurately scanned without problem. WinSync means the Colortrac Smart LF SC MFP Series is compatible with Windows 10, 8, 7, and Vista.

Colortrac’s Firefly technology refers to the new SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and optimised USB2.0 interface. The SmartLF SC MFP Series scanners are the first to incorporate the new SuperSpeed USB 3.0 digital interface with up to 75MB/s. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 is unique to Colortrac and allows the SmartLF SC MFP Series to work at full speed using higher resolutions on wider documents. Higher data transfer give the SmartLF SC MFP Series user the freedom to scan wider and at higher resolutions without compromising productivity, making it ideal for large amounts of archiving.

The Colortrac Repro Stand features an adjustable PC, flatscreen and keyboard so users can create the best working position, especially useful for large jobs and archiving. The Repro Stand accommodates any printer width, and allows printer heights of 45 inch/1143 mm, 43 inch/1093 mm, 40.8 inch/1038 mm and 39 inch/988 mm. The monitor support arm height from the floor is 55 inches/1396 mm and the depth of the stand is 34 to 44 inches/864 – 1116 mm. The maximum width of the stand is 79.5 inches/2021 mm.

MANUFACTURER INFORMATION

Colortrac is a UK-based pioneer of large format scanning and a leading innovator in affordable colour and monochrome wide format scanning technology. Colortrac was founded in 1989 to develop digital large format scanning solutions for the oil exploration industry. Ten years later, in 1999, Colortrac acquired US-based ANAtech and Tangent Imaging Systems. Colortrac has a legacy of innovation and continues to develop first class, patented wide format scanning technologies developed since the early 1980s.

Colortrac launched thick media handling in 1998, LED lighting to improve illumination and output in 2007 and USB 3.0 connections between computer and scanner to speed connections in 2012. In 2014, Colortrac was the first to introduce what it calls a full-width scanner, featuring a SingleSensor that makes the scanners easier to use, with less need for calibration. Users are able to walk up to a scanner, do a scan and walk away with no formal training. In 2016, Colortrac introduced the first truly portable, lightest, easiest to use, lowest cost large format scanner on the market.

Colortrac offers a full range of large format scanning solutions incorporating first class technological breakthroughs. Colortrac’s SingleSensor/CIS is a major step forward in large format image capture and a huge improvement on staggered CIS technology. SingleSensor features single straight-line scanning accuracy from CCD scanners with low cost of CIS technology and is at the heart of Colortrac’s CIS scanners. SingleSensor requires virtually no routine maintenance by users and provides high definition, exceptional colour and dimensional accuracy, combined with ultra-fast scan speeds.

Colortrac has also concentrated on LED illumination for scanning, providing long life, low energy consumption with even, balanced lighting for high fidelity image reproduction. Colortrac scanners feature soft, motor-driven rollers superb for thin paper handling or thick mounted board handling.
