Reliably scan a variety of paper sizes
The HP Scanjet N9120 accommodates a
variety of hard-copy documents, from A6 to
A3-sized media, including index cards,
questionnaire forms, surveys, medical
records, mortgage documents, ledgers,
magazines and more. The scanner captures
A3-sized documents through the ADF or the
flatbed scan surface. The automatic
document feeder accepts varying paper sizes
from 70 – 300 mm wide and 148 – 864 mm
long.
The A3-size flatbed can be used for scanning items such as thin paper, excerpts from thick-
bound materials and books, and worn or stapled documents that cannot be sent through the
automatic document feeder.
A hardware deskew feature straightens pages prior to scanning, reducing the likelihood of
documents becoming skewed or slanted during scanning.
Changeable ADF black and white backgrounds
The Scanjet N9120 allows you to easily switch back and forth between black or white
backgrounds to enhance the readability of scanned documents. The black background
improves image quality and allows software applications to better distinguish the edges of
scanned pages. The white background minimises the appearance of the outside edges of
scanned pages in digital files. See the HP Scanjet N9120 User Guide or the onscreen Help
for details.
Colour channel filter
A multicolour drop-out feature allows you to remove up to three distinct colours from
scanned documents or images. You can filter out a colour channel (red, green or blue) or
up to three specific colours from a scanned image, such as removing coloured lines from a
questionnaire form. This feature is useful for filtering out dark backgrounds from the image
content, for example, black text on green paper or red instructions on a form to enhance
readability. Removing colours from scans can improve the accuracy of optical character
recognition (OCR) or intelligent character recognition (ICR) results and reduce the size of
scanned files.
