New Xerox Production Scanner Delivers Parallel Scanning Innovation

PLEASANTON, Calif —  

The Xerox DocuMate® 6710 Scanner is speeding the onramp to digital transformation with a driver that supports multiple scanners connected to the same PC. Operators can either run several scanners at the same time, or scan on one while setting up another – multiplying the number of pages scanned per hour.

The DocuMate 6710 is designed for industries where large quantities of paper are still a reality – like discovery documents in the legal world, incoming medical records in healthcare, or testing and student records in education. The DocuMate 6710’s speed and paper capacity allows operators to easily and quickly scan batches, which is especially important in a situation where a customer must wait for the operator to complete the scan.

Under a trademark licensing agreement with Xerox Corporation, the DocuMate 6710 will be manufactured and marketed by Visioneer pursuant to Xerox’s quality control standards.

Scan Speeds as Advertised
True production speed is a combination of scanner speed, onboard image processing, the connected PC and the software delivering the scan to its destination. The Xerox DocuMate 6710’s 100 pages per minute speed is supported by:

  • Visioneer’s On-Board Acuity technology, which incorporates 15 image enhancement algorithms in the scanner. The processor-intensive work is done before the data even hits a PC.
  • A true native USB 3.0 connection to speed the communication between the scanner and the PC.
  • Visioneer Acuity, which detects and leverages available memory and processing power of the connected PC to ensure the PC itself is not a bottleneck.
  • A 35,000 page per day daily duty cycle and 300-sheet automatic document feeder.

“The DocuMate 6710 is a smart long-term investment, especially when you consider that parallel scanning allows you to double or triple your capacity at an affordable price,” said Walt Thinfen, president and CEO at Visioneer. “Parallel scanning allows for continuous performance, and when combined with the DocuMate’s 6710 true production speed, operations managers will see significant daily productivity improvements.”

True workflow and integration
The DocuMate 6710 includes Visioneer’s OneTouch® with Acuity, which allows operators to define the steps the scan goes through from scanning to integration with the destination. Users can define up to 90 different jobs and start them directly from the scanner’s control panel, and different jobs can run concurrently on one PC with parallel scanning. Once a scan reaches its destination, Visioneer TWAIN DriverPLUS with Acuity provides precise integration with the final destination or IT application.

Pricing and Availability
The Xerox DocuMate 6710 has a suggested retail price of $6,500.00 and is immediately available for purchase online at www.xeroxscanners.com and from authorized resellers in the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa.
