Printer Xerox - DocuMate 262 review
May 8, 2008
With scanners planes from around £ 50, a first reaction to the Xerox DocuMate 262 is to ask how the company may charge £ 599 + VAT for that. This is a different breed of hardware its average flat, however, and intended for a different purpose. It is a piece of food scanner, making it ideal for sheets of paper or photos, and can scan both sides of the sheet in one pass, known as duplex scanning. However, can not scan books or other documents linked.
It’s a neat little machine, very solidly, looking something like a small inkjet printer. With a plastic food tray at the rear and another to receive documents scanned at the front, its desktop footprint is quite large and, although you can fold the tray of food forward when the scanner is not in use, the output tray takes up your room unless you eliminate it completely. If the site Xerox DocuMate 262 permanently on a work table occupied, you can get in the way.
Checks of such hardware are few and easy to understand. There are three buttons in the upper right-hand pane and a button on the rear left to free the upper deck, if paper jams. Two of the control buttons or simply duplex select scanning and the third works in conjunction with a seven-segment LCD.
This shows a number from 1 to 9 and refers to pre-defined settings for different types of exploration; document or photo, text or image, black and white or color. All these parameters can be modified to their needs, which is so well because even in a UK full version of Windows XP, are offering in U.S. as the Charter of default paper size.
This is a fast scanner work via USB 2 and rated at 33 pages per minute (ppm). This doubles to 66ppm when scanning duplex. It examined 10 mixed simple A4 pages to 200dpi in 22 seconds, which is about 27ppm, a good result.
The scanner comes with copies of OmniPage Pro 12 and PaperPort Pro 9 Office, none of whom is the latest version, but both are big-selling software components of productivity. PaperPort works well, and includes automatic recognition (OCR) conversion to a variety of file formats, including Word and PDF. The same is true of OmniPage Pro 12, we could not make it work satisfactorily using the DocuMate 262 as a device WIA, only with the TWAIN driver. For most practical purposes, using a TWAIN interface should not be a problem.
