Canon - Microfilm Scanner 800

Overview

Full network connectivity plus flexible image transmission capabilities bring a new level of operational convenience to high performance digital microfilm scanning.

Start with a wide-screen microfilm scanner capable of handling everything from checks to blueprints, newspapers, and more. But make it compact enough to fit on any desktop. Then raise the bar by pushing output resolution up to 600 dpi. And design it for high speed, simple operation, great versatility, easy connectivity, and fast throughput. While you're at it, make it affordable, too. You'd probably want to call it the perfect solution to your ever-expanding workgroup needs.
