Product description
The ScanMate F10 is a fast single-pass A3 flatbed scanner with a vertically
aligned optical system. It is designed to extract digital RGB color from trans-
mission and reflection originals, including both positives and negatives, using
the supplied scanning and separation program, ColorQuartet. Black and
white originals can be scanned as gray scale or line art. Screened films can be
rescanned using the optional ScanDot software add-on for ColorQuartet.
The ScanMate F10 can scan reflective originals up to 305 x 432 mm (12" x
17") and transmission originals up to 305 x 420 mm (12” x 16.5”). Maximum
optical resolution is 5400 dpi, with interpolated resolution up to 13,000 dpi.
A resolution of 2500 dpi can be obtained throughout the entire scan area.
