Why does E-Z Photo Scan use Photo Scanning Solutions by Kodak?
A scanner is a machine that takes printed material, such as paper documents or photos, and captures them so that they can be brought into a computer. The two basic types of scanners are flatbeds and automatic document feeders.
The most common type of scanner is a flatbed, which has been on the market for the longest time. Flatbeds are wonderful for gently scanning the most fragile of documents and photos, but scanning with a flatbed typically takes over a minute per photo. So if you use a flatbed, you will likely scan only a few valuable photos instead of preserving their entire family heritage.
Traditional Automatic Document Feeder scanners, like this Kodak 700 series, are designed to scan thousands of images per day using a roller system to feed pages through the imaging device. This is great for quickly scanning paper documents, but what about these types of machines being used for photos?
Photos are thicker than paper documents. At the same time, they are also more fragile and sensitive. High speed document scanners' tend to increase the likelihood of scratching delicate photos.
Kodak, a name with a long history in both photography and scanning, has developed a revolutionary photo scanning solution.
We use Photo Scanning Solutions by Kodak that combine the best of flatbed and automatic scanning in a safe, versatile package designed specifically for scanning photos, delicate documents, and other memorabilia such as diplomas and birth certificates.
