Contex's New Large Format Imaging Solutions - Major Productivity Gains in a
Sleek Design

Contex and Vidar, a brand of Contex - has announced its next generation
of professional wide format scanners. With its technological and stylistic
enhancements, the product suite boasts even greater image quality and
flexibility - and promises an excellent return on investment.
ALLEROED, Denmark, April 10 /PRNewswire/ -- More than just a face lift,
the scanners' new black-and-silver casing slots seamlessly into any modern
business environment. Easily integrated with most wide format printers, the
scanners enable users to create visually unified, multi-function copying and
printing solutions.
The launch of the Contex HD Series marks the next generation of
award-winning products for Contex customers. Contex's CCD-based scanners are
renowned for bringing unmatched speed, image quality and data accuracy to any
scanning task - no matter how sensitive or specialized. The HD Series offers
even more.
Contex has upgraded the optical resolution from 508 dpi to 600 dpi. "600
dpi is the highest true optical resolution specification in the large format
scanning industry today," says Niels Appel, Executive VP, Sales and
Marketing. "Optical resolution is a key indicator of image quality - and we
are very pleased to offer our customers this industry-leading capability."
The HD Series also includes the Hi-Speed USB interface with Contex's own
extended data transfer rate, known as xDTR. xDTR speeds up data transfer from
the scanner to the PC, making extra wide and high resolution scanning a
breeze. "Our aim is to balance quality and speed. This upgrade enables our
customers to reduce the time they spend on daily scanning tasks by up to 50%
- while maintaining excellent image quality," says Appel.
To help customers navigate Contex's wide product range with ease, Contex
has made its product names more intuitive. HD (for high definition) is
followed by four digits: the first two show the scanner's width, the last two
its speed.
Contex HD Series scanners at a glance:
- True 600 dpi optical resolution for outstanding image quality
- Faster Hi-Speed USB xDTR for high productivity gains on daily scanning
tasks
