The ScanMaker 6700 is a high quality color scanner from Microtek with a number of useful features, connectivity options, and a nice software package. PC and Mac compatible, the 6700 utilizes a Sigma Six dual 10,600-element stacked CCD which combines with a 48-bit color depth and a 4,800 x 2,400 dpi maximum optical resolution to provide crisp, true-to-life scans that are perfect for business, graphics, and home office uses. Built-in USB and FireWire interfaces provide convenient connectivity options, while the LAN Wizard scanning utility for PC lets you use the 6700 as a network device, ideal for multiple-computer office and home environments. The five one-touch buttons (scan, copy, scan-to-web, email, and OCR) provide an easy way to perform commonly used features, while the automation mode detects the image size and adjusts scan parameters to help you achieve high-quality scans with no hassle.
The software package includes ScanWizard 5 with a multi-lingual OCR engine that allows you to save scans in a variety of useful formats such as PDF, Excel, HTML, RTF, and more. An integrated 4-by-5-inch transparency adapter with FilmView light box lets you view and scan 35mm film or slides, while the 8.5-by-11.7-inch scanning surface handles up to letter size originals with ease. Weighing 8.1 pounds, the 6700 has a footprint of 19.7 by 11.5 inches. The 6700 also comes backed with a one year limited warranty on both parts and labor.
