Notes

Thick documents up to 2mm must be flexible. Colortrac does not guarantee quoted speeds for thick media. Thick media should be scanned at reduced speeds to obtain optimal image quality. For heavy and/or thick materials the operator may need to support the document as it enters and exits the scanner. For larger sizes of heavy and/or thick media Colortrac recommend the scanner is placed on a flat surface and the operator supports the document as it enters and exits the scanner. Colortrac recommends the Paper Return Guide is always removed when scanning heavy or thick media.

SmartWorks TOUCH MFP is intended for SCi mfp scanners and is not compatible with regular SCi scanners or the SGi scanner.
