New GI Processor Allows for No-Computer-Needed Scans If the multi-feed is correct, you can choose to continue with the scan. I believe the purpose for this interruption is for those times when you may have a document taped to another sheet such as taped receipts on a single sheet of paper for an expense report. It does this using a sender and receptor unit above and below the paper - with a misfeed there will be that place where the two sheets overlap and the sensor detects this change in thickness and stops the scan, alerting you and asking if you wish to continue.
With my 1300i, I would occasionally have two sheets go in at once if the sheets were very thin, but I tested a few stacks of thin papers and all of them were pulled in one sheet at a time.Īpparently there’s also an ultrasonic sensor that’s been added inside that will detect a double-feed. I’ve been scanning hundreds of pages in over the last few weeks and I have had ZERO misfeeds. Two rollers spin at different speeds (as I understand it), one pulling in a sheet and the other roller preventing the sheet above it from accidentally being scanned. You can actually look inside the scanner and see the feed mechanism, and it’s definitely different than the 1300i. I scanned in a 101 page stack of double-sided pages (a magazine with the spine cut off – more on this later) in less than three minutes – an average of 33.67 pages per minute! And these were full-color scans at 300DPI!įujitsu has improved the reliability of the feed system by using some technology available in their higher-end (and much more expensive) commercial scanner systems. The paper was pulled in and pushed out in about 2 seconds! According to Fujitsu, the scanner is capable of 25ppm (pages per minute), but my timed tests show it to be much much faster. Compared to my 1300i (which I still think is very fast for such a small scanner), the first time I fed a single document into the iX500, I thought I’d actually done something wrong.
