Contex FLEX50i
Flatbed versatility - now available in large format

Description
Merging the flexibility of flatbed scanners with the best of wide format imaging technology, FLEX50i is the ideal scanner for capturing books, fragile originals, and other thick or delicate materials.

With the ability to reproduce uneven surfaces – and just about anything you put on the scanner bed – the FLEX50i incorporates 48-bit CCD technology to ensure picture-perfect scans.

The iJET control panel gives you the option to scan-to-print or scan-to-file without using a computer. And unlimited scanning thickness means that the FLEX50i flatbed scanner can handle all your scanning needs.
