Key technologies in Contex HD Ultra series scanners

As the world’s largest developer and producer of wide format imaging solutions, Contex leads the market with innovative technology and advanced scan and copy software solutions. The HD Ultra series of scanners utilizes a long list of key technologies unique to a Contex scanner.

CCD technology

The HD Ultra series scanners captures all details with advanced 48-bit CCD technology. By combining CCD with Contex Natural Light and high quality camera optics you are ensured the best possible results in every scan.

Fujifilm lenses

Like photography, scanned image quality depends heavily on lens quality. Using lenses that are specifically designed for the scanning resolution will ensure against various problems, from uneven sharpness to chromatic errors and color fringing (black lines show up in color). This is why Contex uses custom Fujifilm lenses in all CCD based scanners.

Full 48 bit workflow

To get the best results, your scanner and software should work with full 48-bit data. Where other scanners ignore some of this data, the HD Ultra is the world’s only wide format scanner with true 48-bit.

X-Rite ICC profiles

Using X-Rite generated profiles ensures the highest possible color accuracy for the demanding customers. X-Rite is the global leader in color science and technology.
 

Adobe RGB, Device RGB and sRGB

Contex HD Ultra scanners have several different options for color space. In addition to the common sRGB the HD Ultra also offers color spaces with wider gamut as preferred by color specialists.

Adobe RGB and Device RGB has a larger color gamut than sRGB, hereby allowing differences in very bright and saturated colors to be maintained in the file.

Contex Natural Light

The light source is custom fluorescent with a high Color Rendering Index (CRI > 95) to produce the most accurate colors possible. The CCD itself is high resolution and capable of capturing 48-bit color, but Contex have the unique ability to process the entire 48-bit color data – resulting in the most accurate color images you can get from a scanner today.

xDTR2

Delivering 3 times the bandwidth of USB2, our unique Gigabit Ethernet implementation with xDTR2 is lightning fast and accelerates workflows even further via network sharing, where scans can be controlled from any computer.

 

Nextimage software delivers a complete set of tools to ensure image quality for both archival and printing. Never before has it been so easy to get professional results – with minimal adjustment.


SnapScan: Scan – Enhance – Save

With the new SnapScan feature you scan, enhance and save your originals in a single flow. No rescanning needed. It is the perfect link between your scanner, digital storage, existing applications, and your printers.

SnapScan makes scanning faster while protecting your fragile originals by allowing the operator full control over image adjustments without having to rescan.


Auto-generated 8-bit color palette

lets you automatically generate a palette from the existing 24-bit scan.

 

ICC Color Management

Nextimage supports ICC/ICM profiles. It can embed ICC profiles in scanned files, whether it is JPG, JPEG 2000 or TIFF, preserving colors when files are loaded into other applications.

You can also use ICC/ICM profiles to manage colors when making copies with Nextimage.

 

Intelligent Sharpen/Smoothing Filters
Nextimage is loaded with new image processing options. One of these is the smart new Smoothen filter that intelligently removes pattern noise without blurring the edges in the original. Combine it with the sharpen algorithm to get razor sharp results with smooth noiseless colors.

 

Closed Loop Calibration (CLC)

Nextimage also comes with built-in closed loop calibration for managing colors when making copies. The CLC wizard helps you create a media profile that is optimized for the individual media in the printer. Simply print a reference pattern on your printer, and then scan it to create the perfect relationship between your scanner and printer.

 

New Adaptive Thresholding Algorithm

Nextimage also comes with a newly developed B&W algorithm that combines background cleaning and preservation of grayscales in one mode. Use it for both clean new originals and for low contrast blueprints.

 

PRODUCTIVITY: Build your high-volume digital archive in no time

The key to productivity for high-volume applications is speed. Not just “inches per second” but actual throughput. The HD ScanStation Repro is able to scan three times as many documents in a day as any other scanner – to help you win projects, boost productivity and lower costs.
With our professional version of the Nextimage software, your workflows become even more productive.
File formats
When creating digital archives our solutions offers the widest selection of file formats to ensure the right solution for you archives. Select standard TIF formats for loose less compression and high quality image files or select formats like PDF/A designed for long time storage and reduced files size. Other formats are also available.TWAIN
Less searching for the right settings, less adjustment to get the right quality, and less waiting to view results. No matter whether you scan maps, technical drawings, posters or art, you’ll always capture every detail, on the first try.

ERGONOMICS: More scanning, less clicking

Designed to improve large-format document management, the HD ScanStation Repro gives you the best ergonomic conditions. Choose between different height settings and mount the touchscreen to the left or right as you prefer – all to give the scanning operator the best options for a correct working position.

SOLUTION: Improves your workflow

With the most efficient and advanced large-format scanning solution you get a complete work station including our awarded Nextimage software, to fulfil your need for high-volume scanning. A reliable solution to obtain the best quality image, every time.
