Kodak Alaris has launched two new network desktop document scanners, expanding its N2000 Series for distributed workplaces.
The new models, the KODAK N2040 and N2050, are aimed at organisations that still rely on paper documents across multiple sites, branch offices and home-working setups. They are intended to give businesses a consistent approach to document capture where staff scan records away from central mailrooms or back-office hubs.
The N2040 processes up to 40 pages per minute or 80 images per minute, while the N2050 processes up to 50 pages per minute or 100 images per minute. The recommended daily volume is up to 6,000 pages for the N2040 and up to 8,000 for the N2050.
Both are desktop models with network connectivity and a 100-sheet feeder. They are designed for small and medium-sized businesses, reception desks, administrative functions and larger organisations seeking a standard setup across dispersed teams.
