SPARK Introduces the SpectrumScan III

Spark International recently introduced the newest scanner in the Spectrum
Scanner series, the SpectrumScan III. A single pass, 2400 dpi scanner with
an integrated transparency feature. The Scan III allows users to scan
reflective and transparent art quickly and easily.

The integrated transparency option sets this scanner apart from the rest,
because it is included in the purchase price of the scanner. It attaches
with two thumb screws and scans 35mm slides as well as full page
transparencies.

The Scan III features two flourescent lamps, a single CCD sensor and a high
speed engine. SpectrumScan III creates full color previews in less than
ten seconds. Scans 8.5" x 11.7", color images, at 1200 dpi, in about 4
minutes. SpectrumScan III also scans in 8 bit grayscale and 1 bit
monochrome. The scanner is equipped with an international-ready power
supply which accepts inputs from 90v to 250v AC.

"The SpectrumScan III is ideal for the prepress and multimedia users who
require a fast and precise scanner," says Vice President, Emanuel
Yonanzade. "We determined that the prepress market was in need of a
complete scanning solution, and wanted to supply the users with a scanner
for all scanning needs, without giving up speed, clarity and precision.

The scanner supports both the Macintosh and Dos/Windows and can be shipped
with an optional document feeder which has a 50 page capacity; perfect for
OCR applications. The document feeder accepts document sizes from 5"x5" to
8.5"x14".

This product began shipping from the U.S. the second week of August.
European shipments, from the German office, began the first week of
September. The SpectrumScan III package includes the scanner, transparency
arm, SCSI cable, terminator, power cable, Photoshop Plugin and user's
manual. For the PC platform the scanner is shipped with all of the above
plus a TWAIN driver, supporting the most popular PC applications, and a
SCSI card for DOS systems.
