HIGH QUALITY OPTICS

You choose from four types of interchangeable lenses with any magnification ratio you need, from single focus 7.5x lens, to zoom lenses that span 9-16x, 13-27x or 20-50x zoom ratios.

MICROFORM CARRIERS (optional)

Whatever form micrographics takes, ALOS provides the carrier you need:a full selection of precision microform carriers for rolls and fiche, aperture cards and jackets, motorized or manual, manual or auto-load, and any media requirements. Carriers are also interchangeable with the ALOS Z43 Reader-Printer.

LASER PRINTING

Superior Print Quality: The exclusive Fine Micro-Toning (Fine-MT) system uses precision and proven, field-tested laser technology to reproduce fine details other printers might miss.

You can choose “Text” mode for legible text, “Photo” mode to make halftone images more vivid, or “Fine” for maximum detail. When printing versatility is required the MSP3000 Printer is the ideal choice. You can output laser prints on a variety of paper: 8.5” x 11” landscape and portrait, 8.5” x 14”, even 11” x 17” to reproduce oversized originals or 2-page spreads from books and magazines.

The Z-Scan 46-II can automatically scale all images to fit larger size output or you can enlarge from 50% up to 200% to show more detail. 600 dpi resolution ensures to give you sharp, legible images.

With output speed of the MSP3000 Printer of up to 20 high-resolution prints per minute you can make prints faster. 150-sheet paper tray and 250-sheet universal cassette give you a standard 400-sheet capacity – and you can add optional 250-sheet universal or 500-sheet letter-size cassettes for high-volume applications.

When greater cost efficiency or workspace is an issue, the 2-to-1 sharing lets you share two Z-Scan 46-II scanners with a single MSP3000 printer – more reasons to choose ALOS!

SCANNING TO PC (optional)

With a touch of a button the ALOS Z-Scan 46-II makes it easy to scan microform information to your PC. You can scan to PC for electronic filing, internal or external distribution via fax, intranet or internet, and for access throughout your organization.

To make scanning easy, a standard SCSI Interface or USB Interface with TWAIN software driver lets you use Windows 95/98, NT4.0, 2000 or XP. A SCSI-2 connection allows faster transfer rates through standard cables.

Simple to Use

For walk-up users, the Z-Scan 46-II is simple and self-explanatory. All important controls are at your fingertips and clearly labeled – including a Dual Output function that prints or scans images at the touch of a button.
