Opscan 4 Insight OMR Sanner

The iNSIGHT optical mark Easy Upgrade to Image Capabilities
When you want to upgrade from OMR to imaging data collection capabilities, all you
need to do is upgrade the scanner system cartridge. Today you may be collecting OMR
data but in the future, you may want image capabilities – collecting survey comments,
essay answers, short-answers, check and X box responses, bar codes, hand print, machine
print, image clips, and full-page images. An investment in an iNSIGHT OMR scanner
will pay off as your data collection needs grow. Collect OMR data now and be ready
for imaging capabilities. A simple upgrade is all that is required to provide full imagecapture
capability.

Easy to Operate
The iNSIGHT OMR scanner is easy to operate and includes two built-in read modes:
one for reading pencil marks and one for reading marks made with blue or black ink. The
forty-character, alphanumeric operator messages simplify operation. An open feed path
provides sheet visibility at all times as well as easy access for sheet removal and transport
cleaning. Scanner self-diagnostics quickly pinpoint any operating problem. Any previous
software applications developed for the OpScan® 2/ 3/ 4/ 4U scanners are plug-and-play
compatible with the iNSIGHT OMR scanner.

Accurate, Fast and Efficient
The iNSIGHT OMR scanner is accurate, fast and efficient to meet your data management
needs. It has a form throughput rate of up to 2, 200 sheets per hout. A fixed, automatic
feed hopper holds 100 sheets and helps eliminate continual form reloading and constant
operator attention. Its digital read head technology helps prevent undetected degradation
of read head accuracy. The scanner alerts you when paper dust, erasure bits, ect. begin
to build up and might affect read accuracy. A sheet thickness detector helps ensure
the scanner reads only one sheet at a time. Sheet-skew detection helps ensure proper
registration while scanning, as well.

The iNSIGHT optical mark read ( OMR) scanner is one of the most
versatile and efficient desktop scanners available for automated
data collection. Its powerful processor delivers fast document
throughput and transfers into a variety of off-the-shelf and
custom software packages.
