BSCAN Capture

What is BSCAN capture?
BSCAN is production document capture software. Available in scan station and post processing versions, BSCAN provides out-of-the-box and custom capture systems that convert paper documents to clean, clear electronic images. The images are then filed with all associated index information.

What does BSCAN do?
BSCAN reduces the cost of scanning and indexing documents while greatly reducing the chance of misfiling. BSCAN runs scanners at the highest possible speed while simultaneously performing cleanup and automatic indexing using the industry's most tenacious and accurate barcode and text recognition engines. It can read barcodes, text and marks, while scanning or during post processing. It can also check the integrity of your existing paper files. For example, it can ensure that every folder or packet of documents contains either form A or both forms B and C.

Does Image Access sell scanning software for smaller needs?
Yes.

What kind of applications is BSCAN used for?
BSCAN is most popular in distribution and trucking, receivables, payables, order processing and backfile conversion applications. However, it is well suited to any application where customizability, barcodes, OCR, indexing and/or high-speed capture is needed. With the introduction of the Bookeye planetary scanner, BSCAN is now popular for archiving delicate and large documents, newspapers and laboratory notebooks.

Do BSCAN prices vary depending upon what scanner is used?
Yes. Image Access has set very competitive pricing for larger customers who capture many thousands of pages per hour. To maintain our competitive pricing for smaller customers that scan 50 to 500 and 500 to 5,000 pages per day, our product prices vary according to scanner speed.

Does BSCAN run scanners with SCSI interface? How about video interface?
Yes

Does BSCAN support TWAIN scanners?
Yes.

Can I configure BSCAN to any scanning application?
Yes, that's one of BSCAN's tried and true claims. With a versatile scripting language, it is virtually unlimited in its ability to meet the application needs common to production capture environments. And configuring BSCAN is quick -- our technical staff offers a configuration service, and they are able to create configurations that meet complex requirements in a single day. Typical BSCAN applications can be scripted in as little as 10 minutes.

Bookeye Scanners

Can you confirm that the Bookeye does not contact the top of the scanned surface?
The Bookeye scanner does not come in contact with the object being scanned, as it is an overhead (or planetary scanner). It's reader head remains about 2 feet from the scanned surface. Components within the head move, but the head does not move. Take a look at the picture of the Bookeye on our web site if you have not seen one yet. If you were scanning a book, the page of the book being scanned could be nearly 4 inches from the scanner bed surface. If it is taller than 4 inches or so, the surface will not be in focus.

Can the scanner scan by sections of documents that can be assembled later? Our maps are 12" by 70", 36" by 40"
Yes.

Where can I find technical specifications on the Bookeye scanners & copiers?
The BOOKEYE product page. You'll find all the specifications toward the end of the Bookeye document.

Does it scan in color?
Yes

Are there configurations, common options or models or packages to choose from?
The Bookeye scanner is available in two configurations, one capable of scanning up to 17 x 24 inches and the other capable of scanning up to 25 x 35.4 inches.

Is the size of the scanning area a function of the vertical distance from the overhead piece?
No.

Are there any parts that regularly need replacing?
Yes, the halogen lamp available from Image Access and from many photocopier parts suppliers.
