Preface
Arcus 1200
can scan reflective and transparent originals. Because of its MultiPlate™ system, it is
possible to prepare transparent originals while scanning reflective originals and vice versa. This
means a considerable increase in productivity.
Arcus 1200's image quality makes it perfectly suitable for pre-press graphical applications. It is
based on flatbed CCD (Charge Coupled Device) scanning technology. Arcus 1200 is characterized
by a large input size range. Due to its 10,000 CCD pixels, an impressive output size range can be
achieved. This high-precision instrument features exceptional sharpness and color fidelity.
The flexible template and a batch slide holder frame with two batch slide holders allow you to scan
transparent originals. The batch slide holders allow you to increase the productivity of the scanner.
To facilitate the scanning of thick originals like magazines and books, the TPU adjusts
automatically to the thickness of the original. If necessary, you can remove the TPU of the Arcus
1200 completely.
The originals can be of any type. The FotoLook™ scanning software will optimize the scan result.
ColorTune™ software ensures that colors are matched seamlessly throughout the entire prepress
and printing process. The bit depths can be either 3 x 12 bit for color (packed into 3 x 16 bit or
truncated to 3 x 8 bit), 12 bit for gray scale (packed into 16 bit or truncated to 8 bit) originals, or 1
bit for line-art originals. The scanned data are transferred to the workstation through SCSI-2. The
workstation operating system can be either a Mac OS™ or Windows™.
