New Xerox DocuMate 700 Versatile Scanning Solution for Large Documents

Tuesday 07. April 2009 - Flexible flatbed scanner can be used alone or connected to any Xerox DocuMate ADF scanner

Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) today announced the Xerox DocuMate 700, an 11″ x 17″ flatbed scanner with a built-in USB hub. The hub enables the DocuMate 700 to be connected directly to a PC and used as a stand-alone flatbed scanner or it can be connected through its USB port to an existing ADF (automatic document fed) scanner for added functionality.

“Adding new functionality to an already valuable office product is just smart business, especially during challenging economic times,” said John Capurso, vice president of marketing for Visioneer, Xerox’s authorized trademark licensee. “The Xerox DocuMate 700 is a powerful tool as a stand-alone scanner and it’s a great add-on product for any DocuMate scanner that you already own. Now there is no need to install numerous flatbed scanners across a network if the majority of users do not require this function on a frequent basis. You now have a new option to simply add flatbed capability to your existing set-up, saving you time and money.”

Powerful Scanning at the Touch of a Button
The Xerox DocuMate 700 has a generous flatbed that enables users to scan large documents up to A3 (11 x 17″) size. It offers users the option to scan a wide variety of documents, such as books, magazines, plastic cards and fragile paper. Powered by Visioneer OneTouch technology, the scanner allows users to scan to the “destination” of their choice by pressing a single button, eliminating multiple steps usually required to save scanned documents in popular file formats. The DocuMate 700 can scan documents to 9 preset, yet completely configurable, destinations. The scanner includes Kofax VRS, Nuance PaperPort and OmniPage Pro OCR for converting high volumes of paper and forms into files that can be searched and edited.

The Xerox DocuMate 700 scanner has the ability to instantly scan a document into a searchable PDF file, and send it to one of the many ECM applications that Visioneer has developed links to such as Xerox DocuShare, ScanFlow Store, Docuware, Microsoft SharePoint, Kofax Ascent Collection Server, EMC Captiva QuickScan Pro, FileBound, Laserfiche and/or to devices such as printers and networked storage systems in just one touch.

The Xerox DocuMate 700 scanner is priced at $995 and is available immediately through online channel partners and major resellers.
