Sharp is introducing a new line of products. The Frontier Series. These machines have a smaller footprint and are Scan Centric. They are perfect for heavy scanning environments like doctors offices, hospitals and schools. It has a new “Card Shot” feature which allows you to scan a drivers license, insurance card, or business card in one shot, straight through, and scans both sides at the same time printing them out on the same sheet. No more lifting the cover and flipping over cards again! They also offer a full pull out QWERTY keyboard, so no more hunting for letters.

Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America (SIICA) today introduces its Frontier Scan Centric Series MFPs, the first multifunction models on the market with selectable dual-feeding paths, for paper and “heavy media” such as business cards, drivers’ licenses and plastic ID cards, as well as the company’s proprietary Scan2 technology. Ideally suited for small and medium-size document (A4) scanning applications, the MX-C402SC (color) and MX-B402SC (monochrome) models also offers a high capacity document feeder that provides a robust capacity of 100 sheets and ultra-fast color scanning speeds of 50 images per minute.
Both models offer features that will save significant amounts of time, effort and cost over their lifetimes. Enabled with Scan2 technology, the new models’ document feeder scans both sides of an original in a single pass without having to reverse it, increasing workflow efficiency and protecting one-of-a-kind documents from damage due to excess movement or misfeeds. In addition, their selectable dual-feeding path design enables users to scan a wider variety of documents, including hard ID cards – such as drivers’ licenses and insurance cards – checks and traditional paper documents up to legal size. The Card Shot feature (in copy and scan modes) reproduces the scanned images of both sides of the card and places them on a single page directly from the document feeder.
“Our Frontier Scan Centric Series is designed for those customers in scan intensive environments, such as health care, mortgage, insurance and human resources offices, that require high performance and reliability for capturing data from non-traditional sources such as ID cards and drivers’ licenses, in addition to traditional paper documents,” said Mike Marusic, vice president of marketing and service, Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America. “The dual scanning paths and Scan2 technology will dramatically increase the efficiency of workplaces that need to process high volumes of information.”
