Fujitsu Launches "PaperStream IP" Image Enhancement Solution

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Dec. 2, 2013 --/PRNewswire/ -- Fujitsu, the market leader in document imaging scanners, today announced the release of PaperStream IP (PSIP), a new intelligent image enhancement driver designed for its high-performance "fi-series" document imaging scanner line. Combined with Fujitsu scanners, PaperStream IP delivers a powerful image correction solution allowing documents to quickly and easily be converted into exceptionally clean images, giving organizations the ability to maximize automation, productivity and efficiency throughout their document capture processes.

PaperStream IP is equipped with both a TWAIN and ISIS interface to seamlessly integrate with the myriad of scanning applications on the market today. Its robust image enhancement capabilities accelerate optical character recognition (OCR) and reduce re-scan and driver adjustments without any sacrifice to scanner speed. Additionally, PSIP can easily be deployed to a fleet of scanners via the Fujitsu Scanner Central Admin, providing the ultimate control over the document capture process and reducing downtime.  

"Fujitsu has established itself as the document imaging leader by providing the best hardware and software solutions on the market today," said Scott Francis, senior vice president of marketing, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "PaperSteam IP provides our customers with another powerful and intuitive image enhancement solution that seamlessly integrates with our fi-series scanners to help organizations boost their document capture productivity and create long-term ROI."

Built on decades of technology refinement, PaperStream IP improves on numerous industry enhancement features while bringing many other specialized features to market such as edge repair fills in torn and ripped paper, multi-stream capability for fast output of different color formats simultaneously without slowing down scans, and blur correction for smooth dot matrix print and better OCR and reproduction. Additional features of PSIP include:

• Preset Profiles: With a simple selection of black and white, color or auto-color, the driver's defaults provide perfect images utilizing advanced features such as auto orientation, blank page removal, deskew, and hole punch removal. Setup time is also kept to a minimum.   
• Assisted Scanning: In the rare instances when a document's background is not automatically cleaned up, the Assisted Scan takes the guesswork out of document clean up by providing nine distinct cleaned up images. Users simply select the image that looks best. There is no need for technical prowess or the driver. 
• Real-Time Preview: For complex documents that require their own specialized profiles, the Real-Time Preview functionality eliminates the need to rescan documents as changes are immediately made.
• Fast Scanning: Having a small usage footprint of approximately 100MB, PSIP takes advantage of the PC's multicore processor to perform powerful cleanup without compromising throughput. PaperStream IP also provides 64-bit support for the latest generation of advanced scanning applications.
• Patch & Barcode Recognition: In conjunction with scanning applications, PSIP recognizes all of the most common patch codes including, 1-4, 6 & T, as well as both one and two dimensional barcodes such as Code 3 of 9, Code 128 and QR Code, allowing users to prepare and organize batches for faster electronic filing.
