DuoScan Color Scanner
DuoScan is a versatile, high-resolution scanner that
incorporates an innovative TwinPlate Scanning Technology, enabling users
to scan reflective artwork and transparencies on independent scan beds
within a single, integrated unit. Transparencies are placed on a tray,
which slides into the body of the scanner. A single carriage, carrying
light sources, optics, and a CCD sensor, traverses between the upper glass
plate for reflectives and the transparency tray below. The only mechanical
movement that occurs when you switch from reflective to transparency
scanning is the rotation of the single mirror.

Features:
- Innovative TwinPlate Scanning Technology which increases color
consistency, scanning resolution and speed, while reducing mechanical
complexity.
- One pass scanner that works with a tri-linear coated CCD, resulting
in considerably higher speeds for color registration.
- 8000 element CCD with a true optical resolution of 1000 x 2000 ppi.
- A cold cathode lamp--which has five times the life-expectancy of
fluorescent tubes--to reduce heat output and maximize color stability.
- No glass in the optical path between the original and the lens at the
inner bed of the DuoScan, providing precise focus control when scanning
transparencies.
- Agfa FotoLook driver software and batch slide holders to allow users
to batch scan any combination of reflective artwork and transparencies in
unattended mode.
- Agfa FotoFlavor color correction and enhancement software for a
simple and efficient way to make selective color, contrast, and density
changes to images.
