This professional scanner meets all your wide-format scanning needs
with high-quality grayscale, crisp, clear black-and-white and
photo-realistic colors.
The SP6-LF942 sets new standards for large format scanning speeds,
scanning a full E-size (A0) drawing at 400 dpi turbo in only 5 seconds.
An image depends on its many graytones to bring out details and give it
depth. On the SP6-LF942 graytones are captured at 16 bits for maximum
precision, passing the best 8 bits of graytone data to the computer. For
color scanning, perfect color fidelity is ensured by capturing 48 bits of
color data and passing the best 24 bits to the computer.
The SP6-LF942 uses All-Digital cameras with advanced
point-of-origin capture and on-board digital conversion ensuring minimum
noise and an extended dynamic range. The scanner’s unique four-linear
CCD technology, with a special panchromatic line, ensures that no colors
are lost when scanning monochrome.
Quality color matched fluorescent lamps ensure the market’s highest
standards for color correctness. The SP6-LF942 can scan up to 0.6-inch
(15mm.) thick originals such as drawings, maps and posters mounted on foam boards, gatorboards etc. |
| Care for Your Original |
One Touch Scanning
|
|
The Calcomp All-Wheel-Drive with contour adjustment and precision
rollers ensures a perfectly straight scanning path without using
unnecessary force so you avoid both image distortion and damage to your
customer’s fragile originals.
Dual shared axels synchronize roller movement to ensure a straight and
stable scan path. Suspension components apply pressure evenly across the
whole width of the document for an optimal yet delicate hold. The roller’s
soft-friction contact surface adds the final touch to a system that cares
for your original and for your scan results. |
The SP6-LF942’s operator’s panel is designed with convenient
programmable action buttons for initiating common tasks directly from the
scanner. Each button immediately activates a scan and opens the image in
an appropriate application and format. The scanner comes with action
buttons for scanning, copying and e-mailing loaded originals and can be
reconfigured for other tasks.

Features |
| Copying Made Easy
Connect the SP6-LF942 scanner with a large-format printer and you
get the perfect large format color and monochrome digital copier. With the
scanner’s high precision of details, graytones and colors, users can
enlarge their creations to full display sizes without losing quality.
Use JETimage Copy Software with it's Precision Color Management or
other color RIP packages to achieve excellent color-matched output on
large format printers. Special monochrome copy modes, each fitted to
specific original copy types are supported by the scanner's digital
processing
|
Image Enhancement Power
The SP6-LF942 contains advanced technology for color and monochrome
enhancement. The patented B/W adaptive thresholding works simultaneously
on foreground, background, edges and other individual aspects of the
original so you produce clean, crisp scans even from poor quality
drawings. All processing is embedded in the hardware enabling you to perform
powerful image enhancement without overhead and at speeds incomparable to
standard software processing.
|
| Flexible Connectivity |
|
The SP6-LF942 scanner lets you fit the connection to your immediate
needs by offering two efficient Plug and Play (PnP) interfaces. A FireWire connection and the industry
standard USB 2.0 interface.
Calcomp scanners protect your investment with support for STI (Still
Image Interface) ensuring problem-free compatibility with current and
future versions of Windows.

| Automatic Scanner Maintenance
|
|
The SP6-LF942 scanner incorporates the 3C Auto-Maintenance
system that keeps your cameras perfectly aligned, adjusted and calibrated
for optimal image quality. The process is automatic just insert the
maintenance sheet and click the wizard’s start button.
The 3C Auto-Maintenance system aligns and stitches your cameras to a
fraction of a pixel giving the highest wide format image precision
available. Basic-Calibration sets black-and-white points on each
individual pixel and ensures linearity in both highlight and shadow areas
giving noise-free and stable scans at all resolutions. Precision Color
calibration completes the 3C Auto-maintenance system process.
Once the scanner has been fine-tuned, it performs a number of basic
tasks on its own, removing those tedious chores required with other
scanner systems. Using patented technology, camera stitching and
black-white-points are constantly monitored and corrected while your
scanner is running. Calcomp scanners are designed to let you concentrate on
your work and take optimal scanner performance for granted. |
| Precision Color
|
Accurate Lens Enhancement Technology (ALE) |
| A new large format scanner may come calibrated from the factory, but as
time goes by, components and lamps will change character and affect color
output. The unique Precision Color system lets you maintain perfect
color results by harmonizing current scanning factors. You can calibrate
in the field, at any time, so you are always ensured stable and
predictable color output. |
With this scanner, GIS professionals, CAD and other specialized markets
receive a very high grade of precision stability in the scanned image. The
patented ALE technology has taken precision scanning to new levels. The
ALE technology maintains a 0.1% +- pixel precision across any two
points of the scan line thus exceeding even the most rigid requirements in
the industry today.
