Portable scanner more features
(3) Signal-to-noise.
One of the most common complaints about truly portable scanners had been the inconsistency of images...often
varying notably in quality from scan to scan of seemingly
identical targets. In strictly mechanical terms, the 2000NR
portable scanner also accomplishes an important goal,
by providing an accurate capture of larger documents, as large
as a legal size (8.5 X 14"). Lawyers will welcome the
level of accurate reproduction of these documents.
(4) Budget.
Budget battles have followed the general trend for electronics,
making mid-priced portable scanners sell for about
$300. This has greatly expanded the available options for
scanners, and any portable scanner in that price range
should deliver at least 600 dpi. The great news is that the
2000N portable scanner delivers this high quality in
such a truly light-weight unit, while keeping the price down.
Comparable flat-bed units (such as a model from Fujitsu’s
4220 series) will certainly deliver more copies per minute²
, but come at a hefty price and no better dpi than the 2000N.
Fundamentally, for a quality portable unit well under $180,
the 2000NR portable scanner delivers on a potential
to be a welcome addition anywhere you need it. Ultimately,
this versatility means you will be getting close to having
the perfect scanner: one you will be most likely to use, most
often.
