PRODUCT FEATURES The Kodak i30 and i40 Scanners are compact document scanners perfect for small office and other decentralized applications. These scanners have a 50- page automatic document feeder that scans 25 pages per minute. The scanner interface is USB 2.0. For your image processing needs, the TWAIN Datasource and ISIS Driver are included with the Kodak i30/i40 Scanners. The scanners provide excellent functionality and scanning speed for the price. The information provides more in-depth information on the product features. Image quality and image processing The i30/i40 Scanners offer excellent true color image quality which allows the scanner to be used for image processing applications such as desktop publishing. This begins with high-quality mirrors, lenses, and a 5340-element color CCD that captures 24 lines/mm at 600 dpi. It captures 48-bit color in a single pass. Grayscale images are captured with 8-bit equals 256 levels of gray. Black-and-white images contain one-bit per pixel. Perfect Page with ithresholding Perfect Page with ithresholding delivers high-quality black-and-white images from a large range of both poor- and high-contrast documents and reduces the need to pre-sort, rescan, and perform post-image processing. You get better image and text legibility, smoother lines, minimal to no artifacts, and fewer shaded areas with minimal or no user intervention. Scan mixed batches of documents of varied contrast in background and/or text with the ithresholding features and the scanner dynamically evaluates each document in the batch to determine the optimal threshold value to produce the highest quality image. Brightness is automatically adjusted for each individual document for highlighting, low contrast, and lightweight paper. September 2004 7
Perfect Page is a combination of built-in powerful imaging technologies. Every scan is optimized as it is captured. Perfect Page scanning also shifts gears automatically to handle a wide range of documents. Auto crop Auto crop dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different document sizes. Based on the edges of the image detected, the i30/i40 Scanner dynamically detects the boundaries of the document and only delivers the actual document to the end user. Auto cropping for a page accurately occurs anywhere within the imaging window of the transport. Deskew The skew detection and correction feature performs accurate deskew on the 8-bit image. The front and back of the image are deskewed independently at full scanner speed. Deskew is based on the document edges not the content within the document. This provides an assurance that document information will not be lost. The algorithm is also less sensitive to background noise and provides for deskew at an angle up to 45 degrees with an accuracy of ±0.3 degrees. Color drop-out For forms processing applications, the i30/i40 Scanners enable color dropout through the driver. Many colors can be dropped out during black-and-white and grayscale scanning by adjusting the red, green, or blue channels. This allows you to improve your forms processing and text recognition applications by eliminating unwanted boxes and lines. September 2004 8
Image output The scanner outputs either compressed or uncompressed raw data to your application. This ensures the highest possible image quality for all kinds of applications. Use your scanning application to select an image format in which to save the image data. The bundled software applications can output a variety of popular image formats, including: TIFF (single- and multi-page) PDF via Readiris BMP JPEG Brightness and Contrast Control Brightness and Contrast Control provides customers with the ability to create their own custom color tables to meet any unique scanning need. Once a color table has been created, it can be downloaded to the scanner and used in production. The color tables to be used for front and back images are set independently. When scanning, only one color table can be applied to each image (front or back). The same color table can be used for both the front and the back, or use one color table for the front and one color table for the back. These tables can be easily managed by capture applications. Simultaneous Output The i30/i40 Scanners scan in color, but can output in color, grayscale, or bi-tonal images; grayscale and bi-tonal images; or color and bi-tonal images without further processing required by the host. Multi-Feed Detection Consistent with other Kodak scanners is the option for length checking (maximum lengths). This allows the Multifeed Detection system to be used in applications where document thickness may vary and provides an extra level of confidence when scanning similar length documents. September 2004 9
Paper handling The input tray and automatic document feeder (ADF) of the i30/i40 Scanners are designed to stack and feed up to 50 sheets of 7.3 kg (16 lb.) bond paper reliably across the entire range of document sizes. The feeder reliably accepts a wide variety of paper weight, with no operator intervention necessary after the initial loading. While the ADF works best with similar size documents, it also handles the feeding of mixed document sets (batches) consisting of varying paper weight and sizes. Feeder specifications Maximum document size Minimum document size Document weight Acceptable paper types Acceptable paper inks Correction fluids 21.6 x 35.5 cm (8.5 x 14 in.) 8.9 x 5 cm (3.5 x 2 in.) 7.3 to 12.7 kg (16 to 28 lbs) Bond, Laser, Inkjet, Offset Kodak i30/i40 Scanners All inks on the paper must be dry before scanning is started. This includes: Standard offset printing, Inkjet printer, Thermal transfer, Handwriting inks Liquid Paper, Tipp-Ex, Wite-Out, and other similar correction fluids USB 2.0 interface The fast USB 2.0 interface is the technology that extends the speed of the scanner to the PC connection up to 40 times faster than existing capabilities. USB 2.0 will support the most demanding PC user applications, enables easy, plug-and-play connectivity and rapid transfer of images. A USB 2.0 cable and board are included with the scanner to get you up and running fast. Performance and reliability The i30/i40 Scanners fit imaging applications with volumes of a few dozen up to 1,000 pages per day. However, if you continuously exceed the peak volume, you should consider a second Kodak i30/i40 Scanner or another scanner from the Kodak family of scanners, such as a Kodak i200 Series Scanner. Speeds and output resolutions A built-in 50-page ADF allows continuous and reliable scanning. The ADF handles a wide variety of documents from 8.9 x 5 cm (3.5 x 2 in.) to 21.6 x 35.5 cm (8.5 x 14 in.) at speeds of 25 pages per minute (ppm). This speed and paper handling greatly improves throughput and reduces waiting time for the images, while maintaining the highest quality levels. Available resolutions: 75, 100, 150, 200, 240, 300, 400 or 600 dpi. September 2004 10
Bundled software Kodak Capture Software Lite and the ISIS and TWAIN Drivers are shipped with the Kodak i30/i40 Scanners and can be installed from the CD. The scanner host system is the primary means of controlling the scanner. The TWAIN Driver and ISIS-compliant enabling software from Pixel Translations supports Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Windows ME, Windows 98SE and Windows XP (Professional/Home). A demo version of Capture Software is included. The full version of Kodak Capture Software is available for the i30/i40 Scanners.

Customer maintenance The i30/i40 Scanner was designed with low operator maintenance in mind. The scanner makes use of lifetime transport rollers and lamps. These are typically expensive items that must be replaced on competitive scanners by the operator or service personnel. The only required supply item for the i30/i40 Scanners is the feed module, which is easily replaced by the operator. The feed module has an estimated life of 20,000 pages. The feed module must be replaced when the scanners document feeding quality decreases. The only other maintenance that the i30/i40 Scanners require is the cleaning of the imaging guides and rollers when they become contaminated by paper dust or ink. September 2004 11
APPLICATIONS The Kodak i30/i40 Scanners are targeted at departments with document imaging and general office scanner application needs. Research from end users who purchase workgroup scanners shows that: The primary reason for purchasing a workgroup scanner is for the digitization of business documents and web publishing. Applications are numerous and include financial, insurance, accounting, research, education, legal, consulting, transportation, government and regulatory, and commercial and manufacturing. A very strong secondary reason for purchasing a scanner of this type is for general office scanning of photos, graphics materials, magazines, newspapers, applications, compound documents (photo and text), tear sheets (annual reports, magazines, and yellow pages), sales collateral, and educational materials. Decentralized/Distribution Scanning The idea behind this approach to scanning is to move digital capture of the business documents closer to the point of origination as possible. For example, in a centralized scanning environment, document capture may have occurred at a central office location. In this scenario, the documents are mailed to the scanning site and the data or images are not indexed and are not available for use for several days. Decentralized/distributed scanning moves the capture process closer to the point of document origination. Scanning is typically conducted by operators who are not necessarily dedicated to the task. Typically, medium-to-large organizations purchase dozens or hundreds of scanners in the course of rolling out a decentralized/ distributed imaging project. Standalone Workgroup Scanning This approach to scanning is usually very localized. In other words, the department that captures documents is also the department that either creates or receives the business documents primarily for its own use. The scanner host PC may or may not be attached to a network to share the images with other departments. Typically, one to a few scanners are purchased by the department manager. September 2004 12
VALUE PROPOSITION End User The i30/i40 Scanners from Kodak capture all of your business documents in black-andwhite or full color. Fast, high-resolution scanning with excellent performance.

On a price/performance basis compares very favorably against Fujitsu 4120C, 4220C; Canon 2080. Also compares favorably against B&H 500 and Ricoh IS01. Make more money selling a professional Kodak i30/i40 Scanner. The i30/i40 Scanner is an all-around solution for scanning up to 1,000 pages per day. Customers with an increased scanning demand will appreciate the scanner performance. The i30/i40 Scanner can be integrated with Kofax VRS, which produces good image quality and supports deskew, cropping, and other image processing functions with the i30/i40 Scanner. September 2004 13
PRODUCT POSITIONING The i30 Scanner scans in simplex mode and the i40 Scanner scans in duplex mode. It scans faster than most scanners in this segment and offers outstanding price/performance. Time is money. A scanner has to operate at a speed of at least 25 ppm in order not to waste the valuable time of the scanner operator. Even if a competitive scanner costs $1000 less, the payback time for the investment in a faster and more professional scanner can be less than a month. Our duty cycles are high and maintenance is easy, while other scanners can fail after a few thousand pages. The i30/i40 Scanner has a life of more than 500,000 pages, which makes it a lifetime investment. Many other scanners are hard to clean or have consumables that are difficult to replace. The i30/i40 Scanner is so simple that even an untrained operator can use the scanner and replace the feed module. Kodak has bundled ISIS and TWAIN drivers and basic document imaging application software. Other scanners do not include ISIS drivers or a professional document imaging application such as Kodak Capture Software Lite. These scanners feature basic and advanced document processing functions such as color drop-out or page set-ups that can be applied to document batches. Kodak s worldwide service and support. The document feeder is very reliable and robust a feature that is greatly appreciated by most customers. The image quality in black-and-white, grayscale and color is outstanding. Recommended daily volumes are up to 1,000 lettersize/a4 pages per day, while other devices are designed for up to 500 pages per day or less. Kodak can claim two- to three-times better daily volumes and our scanners are more durable. Other devices are designed for very low volumes or casual use. Know where you can win and when to walk away Be sure your reseller understands the end user s needs. If the customer requires network connectivity, very low price, or a combined scanner/printer device, then we do not have the product set that best meets these needs. It s best that both you and your reseller not waste additional time. When the customer s primary need is for document capture at high speed and the customer is tempted by the specs of these other devices, then we can counter with our strengths. September 2004 14
COMPETITION The workgroup scanner category is highly competitive with numerous scanner manufacturers and models. The scale of feature/functionality differences among departmental scanners is much less than the scale of feature/functionality differences among production class scanners. It is clearly a challenge for manufacturers to achieve features-based product superiority in such a competitive category. To be successful, we must leverage all of the differentiators (both product and non-product) including our service and support, our entire scanner portfolio, and relationships with all of our partners, including resellers, distributors, and software providers. Competitive scanners Some document scanners are not very reliable and often cannot be repaired when they break. The cost of the repair usually exceeds the scanner s price. Other scanners may not scan in duplex mode and may have weak ADFs. On some scanners, you cannot even replace the consumables. Image processing functions usually do not exist and professional drivers are not available. Less expensive scanners usually have a less advanced feeding mechanism, which tends to jam or double-feed documents. Also, on most scanners, the feed rollers must be frequently replaced. The i30/i40 Scanner has only one consumable part, the feed module, which is simply snapped in. Workgroup, network scanners, and MFDs Occasionally, you may be confronted with comparisons of workgroup, network scanners, or multifunctional devices (MFD) against the i30/i40 Scanner. There are dozens of makes and models on the market with many new models introduced every year. We do not plan to benchmark all of these devices; however, the following information is offered to assist you in your efforts. Nature of these other devices These other devices are typically higher-end consumer products with fewer features. They generally have high optical resolution and much higher output resolutions (2400 dpi). Scanner speed specifications often rival departmental class scanners, but be sure to check the fine print. These speeds usually do not specify document size, or dots per inch. To achieve these scanning speeds, these devices generally require less than lettersize/a4 documents, lower dpi, or both.

Competitive products Competitive comparison charts are included at the end of this document contrasting the Kodak i30/i40 Scanner with its major competition. This information was gathered through sell sheet materials supplied (physically or via the Internet) by the manufacturer. Other data has been provided by Kodak Engineering staff, Value-Added Distributors, and outside consultants. Several categories of information require special explanation for a full understanding of the following competitive profiles. Scanner speed All manufacturers have provided the stated speed(s) of their paper transports. Be extremely cautious using these figures, as scanners cannot usually function at these speeds due to constraints in paper handling, jams, or restrictions at the computer (SCSI/Video/USB) interface. Capture resolution/output resolution Capture resolution is the actual dpi of the image as the scanner captures it. Some scanners can interpolate up to a higher output resolution than the optical or actual capture resolution (i.e., a 300 dpi image can be interpolated up to look like a 600 dpi image), but it can never contain the information that would be included if it actually had been scanned with a true 600 dpi scanner. Final image quality is dependent on multiple variables, such as the quality of the lens, light, CCD, and image processing routines. NOTE: Every effort has been made to verify the features and performance, information shown on the following pages. As conditions change, however, Kodak cannot accept responsibility for the validity of competitive data. September 2004 16
