CTS North America Introduces High-Speed Color Check and Document Scanner: LS800 Scans at over 200 dpm in Both B&W and Color Modes

Boston (PRWEB) August 15, 2007 -- CTS North America, a leader in banking automation for check processing, cash processing, and card embossing and printing, is introducing a high-speed color check and document processing scanner at The Association for Work Process Improvement's TAWPI 2007 Forum & Exposition here at the Hynes Convention Center (Booth #720). Called the LS800, the check and document scanner/sorter processes up to 212 dpm (documents per minute) in either black & white or color mode.

The LS800 meets all Check21 requirements; however, its color capabilities also enable faster and secure capture of color documents. Color scanning delivers higher readability and greater detail for archived records, as well as enhanced character recognition for greater accuracy and efficiency. Additionally, scanned color images are more attractive for customer-facing applications, such as online cancelled check and document access.

"The LS800 raises color document scanning to new color speed and accuracy levels," said Alex Trombetta CTS North America CEO. "To our knowledge, CTS is the only company serving the banking industry to offer a scanner in the class of the LS800 with color processing that is as fast as black & white at over 200 dpm. This will open new applications and greater efficiencies for document processing, archiving and retrieval."

The LS800 color high-speed scanner/sorter is available through authorized CTS North America resellers and systems integrators. It features a front and back imaging camera, a 500 document feeder capacity and intelligent multi-bin sorting capabilities. The LS800 family of scanners works with Microsoft Windows 2000, XP and Vista operating systems, as well as Linux.
