Fast Double-Sided Scanning
Typically, higher quality means lower performance, but the iX500 maintains a double sided scanning speed of up to 25 pages per minute even at 300 dpi in Color!
Built-in "GI" microprocessor
A dual-core CPU-mounted "GI" processor performs the intelligent image enhancement responsible for great looking images with dramatically faster results and more sophisticated connectivity:
1. Image processing: Automatic corrections and image output
2. Supports Wi-Fi:WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) wireless LAN (IEE802.11b/g/n)
3. Supports USB 3.0
Advanced Paper Feeding System
Inheriting the superior paper feeding technology of our professional-grade scanners, iX500 achieves exceptional feeding reliability using "Separation Roller" technology to minimize jams and multi-feeds.
