Panasonic Announces New Network Scanning Solution

Combined with the added processing power of an Intel Core i5 tablet, new system features enhanced efficiencies and reliability

Panasonic, a provider of industry leading document management and imaging solutions, announced recently its newest M100 series network scanning solution that combines the advanced processing power of an Intel Core i5 tablet with the reliability of its award-winning scanners. This new system provides a state of the art, fully-connected document management and imaging solution ideal for any sized business—from enterprise to a small to medium-sized—the universal solution provides a streamlined workflow, ultimately trimming unnecessary back-office time. With superior network connectivity and advanced image processing, the network scanning solution eliminates the need for manual scanning and data entry with the ability to scan to email, shared folders, fax or Bluetooth* at the touch of a button.

“By enhancing the scanner system with the advanced processing and durability of the Toughpad, I’ll be able to deliver an overall superior solution with enhanced document management abilities using Panasonic’s patented technology,” said Levi Longmore, President of Scanner One, Inc., a Panasonic authorized Value-Added Reseller. “As the first and only 100 page per minute document management solution of its kind, I have no doubt the new network scanning system will be a welcome solution for many of my customers including insurance companies, banks, hospitals, and healthcare offices.”

Panasonic is an industry leader in delivering high-speed—exceeding 45PPM—and true production level network scanning. The M100 series stays true to that promise providing best-in-class image processing. With the added high-performance processor, the Panasonic system can quickly scan images without any reduction in productivity. Additional features include:

• High-speed Simplex & Duplex Scanning: With increased scanning speeds up to 100PPM, ability to automatically scan single or double-sided with the stroke of a single key.
• Double-Feed, Staple & Dog-Ear Detection*: Using several high-performance sensors to detect issues, these functions alert the user at the time of detection to help eliminate paper jams and increase scanning speeds.
• Long Paper Mode, Mixed Media & Batch Scanning: Save time and eliminate the need to set-up scanning parameters multiple times with the ability to automatically scan multiple items at one time, and capacity to support long-paper items such as electrocardiograms, passports and thick card stock with the straight-path paper feed.
