Features for Productivity
The Duplex Scanning is a feature that lets the product scan both sides of the document at the same time which definitely saves time and boosts productivity. The device is hassle-free letting the user not apply any setting related to color preset as the product comes with automatic color detection and the device and software decide how the document should be scanned and the automatic image rotation feature lets the device deliver the final layout with having you manually switch between landscape or portrait mode. Automatic Image Cropping lets you detect the size of the scanned document and crop it accordingly as the document is not always in perfect A4 or A3 dimensions and also provides a clean white background by removing any color distortions that may not be seen with our naked eye through Background Removal incorporated feature..
Quality of images
The quality of the scanned document depends on the number of software features. Sometimes the documents fed into the scanner are not properly aligned and the resultant output is not up to the mark so to tackle this problem automatic deskew feature is like an algorithm that automatically calculates the alignment of the document and aligns it as per the need. The Punch Hole Removal attribute determines the document having a punched hole and then correcting this area from black to white or the actual color of the document. The DocketPORT 468 does not come with an OCR (Optical Character Recognition)..
DocketPORT 468 accesories unboxing

But these trays are available to be purchased separately. The dimensions of the machine are 32.7 x 5 x 8.6 cm which makes it easier to move the machine and also takes less space on the desk unlike the scanners with larger formats or bigger dimensions.

The scanner does not come with software and should be used with a third party software to manage the machine..
