Detailed Features

Robust Feeding for Uninterrupted Workflow

The "Automatic Separation Control" ensures stable paper feeding, adapting to the volume of sheets loaded. This minimizes interruptions due to paper misfeeds during high-speed scanning.

Multi-Layered Paper Protection

Combining iSOP* technology with Image Monitoring, the scanner offers advanced paper protection. Real-time image monitoring prevents documents from skewing beyond safe angles, providing an extra layer of security during scanning.

*Intelligent Sonic Paper Protection.

One Scanner, Multiple Document Types

The fi-8170 can handle a diverse set of document types. Thanks to the Manual Feed Mode, even glued or bi-folded A3 documents can be scanned seamlessly. Furthermore, the scanner's multi-feed detection capability eliminates errors when scanning cards and papers together.

High-Quality Imaging

With the new CIS sensor coupled with the GI image processing engine, "Clear Image Capture" delivers high-definition scans while keeping power consumption low.

Overscan Control for Complete Scans

The scanner uses three sensors to automatically extend the scanning area, ensuring that no data is lost due to skewed original documents.

User-Friendly Operation

A color LCD panel simplifies setting configurations and status checks, reducing human errors. The Stacker Supporter ensures that all scanned documents are kept orderly, easing post-scan handling.

Network-Friendly

Besides USB connectivity, the fi-8170 supports LAN, allowing integration into diverse network environments. It's even compatible with PaperStream NX Manager, offering scanning capabilities without the need for a connected PC.

Boost Productivity with Software

PaperStream Capture enhances operational efficiency with settings like automatic blank-page deletion and orientation correction. For more specialized needs, the premium option of PaperStream Capture Pro is available.

Quick MRZ Recognition

For passports and ID cards, the scanner supports MRZ recognition, streamlining the data entry process for customer information.

In summary, the fi-8170 offers an unparalleled mix of speed, versatility, and reliability, setting a new benchmark in the scanning industry. It is engineered to deliver maximum efficiency and adaptability in various operational environments.
