Scanning Performance

At its core, the S2060w is designed for speed and efficiency. It scans at an impressive speed of up to 60 pages per minute (ppm) and 120 images per minute (ipm) in duplex mode, making it well-suited for high-volume environments. It offers an optical resolution of 600 dpi, ensuring that every document, whether text-heavy or containing images, is captured in sharp, high-definition detail. This makes it ideal for applications where both clarity and accuracy are critical.

The scanner’s Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) has a capacity of up to 80 sheets, allowing users to load a large number of documents at once for batch scanning. The S2060w is versatile, capable of handling a wide range of paper sizes and types, from business cards and ID cards to long documents, making it suitable for a variety of scanning needs.

Wireless Connectivity and Integration

One of the standout features of the S2060w is its built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing it to be used in a shared environment without the need for physical connections. This enables multiple users to wirelessly connect and scan documents directly to their devices or cloud services. The Wi-Fi capability also supports mobile scanning, enabling users to scan from smartphones or tablets using the Kodak Alaris app.

In addition to wireless connectivity, the scanner also supports USB 3.1 for fast, reliable wired connections when needed. It integrates smoothly with existing workflows and supports both Windows and macOS operating systems. The S2060w is compatible with standard scanning protocols such as TWAIN, ISIS, and Linux, ensuring easy integration with various document management systems, enterprise content systems, and cloud services.

Advanced Image Processing

The Kodak Alaris S2060w is equipped with advanced image processing features to ensure that scanned documents are of the highest quality. The scanner includes Perfect Page technology, which automatically optimizes image quality by adjusting for contrast, brightness, and color balance. This ensures that scanned documents are clear, even when dealing with damaged or low-quality originals.

Additional features such as automatic cropping, de-skewing, and blank page removal help streamline the scanning process by minimizing the need for manual adjustments or post-processing. The scanner can also handle OCR (Optical Character Recognition), allowing users to create searchable PDFs or editable text documents from their scans, which is especially useful for document archiving and retrieval.

Productivity Features

The S2060w is built for efficiency, offering several productivity-enhancing features. The dual CIS (Contact Image Sensor) technology allows for simultaneous duplex scanning, capturing both sides of a document in a single pass. The scanner is also equipped with Intelligent Document Protection (IDP), which monitors each document being scanned for potential jams or misfeeds, protecting both the scanner and the documents from damage.

For enhanced usability, the S2060w includes customizable scan profiles that allow users to pre-set frequently used scanning tasks. This means that users can scan to email, network folders, or cloud services like Google Drive and Dropbox with the press of a button, simplifying document digitization workflows.

Eco-Friendly Design

The Kodak Alaris S2060w is ENERGY STAR certified, meaning it is energy efficient and environmentally friendly. It consumes less power during operation and features automatic sleep mode to further conserve energy when not in use.
