What Sets Our Scanners Apart

  • Advanced clarity features that make even "unreadable" images legible.
  • Automatic image orientation adjusts skewed images, even completely rotating upside down ones, so all captured images are oriented in the same direction.
  • Correctly identifies and retains color when it is integral to a document (e.g., logo, photo, date stamp) and eliminates it when it is not (e.g., colored paper stock).
  • Laser recognition of paper width in the feed tray to ensure that all receipts are scanned one at a time.
  • Capability to scan extra-long receipts. Standard desktop and portable scanners are usually limited to paper under 14 inches in length.

We can process receipts that are up to 3 feet long.
