VIDAR INTRODUCES THE FASTEST AVAILABLE LARGE-DOCUMENT SCANNER

TruScan Flash Delivers Superior Image At Six Times Faster Than Competition

Herndon, VA: Vidar Systems Corporation today introduced TruScan Flash, the
fastest large-document, black-and-white scanner available. TruScan Flash
offers an affordable, high-productivity scanning alternative for
reprographics, electronic document management, CAD and other applications
that previously have relied upon large copying systems. 

TruScan Flash is able to scan an E-size document in 7.5 seconds-six times
faster than the average speed of its competitors. Other
productivity-enhancing features include the TruScan Locator System for
improved paper handling and Adaptive Area Thresholding for the best
imaging results from even the worst originals. 

We designed TruScan Flash to meet demands for faster, high-productivity
scanning solutions," said Ed Bindon. vice-president of Engineering.
"Time-critical environments need fast scanning as well as better imaging.
Our engineering research proves that CCD technology is unmatched for high
quality imaging results." 

The dramatic increase in scanning speed is achieved through the use of more
sensitive image-capture arrays, programmable digital signal processing
technology. and new drive mechanism. 

Using Vidar's proprietary Adaptive Area Thresholding, the scanner analyzes
variations in contrast and background tone and adjusts the threshold level
as necessary, converting the poorest original drawing into a crisp
black-and-white image. 

TruScan Flash is bundled with easy-to-use scanner control software allowing
a range of editing and viewing tools such as deskew. despeckle, cut, copy
paste, zoom, pan and rotate. For high-productivity environments, TruScan
Flash is offered with TruScan CopyCenter software, a choice of plotters,
and a comprehensive installation and service contract to provide a
complete reprographics solution 

The high productivity TruScan Flash is backed by a 24-month warranty that
includes a three-month on-site or advanced replacement policy for
customers in the U.S., followed by a 21-month return-to-depot warranty.
