Conclusions
 Canon Scanner, because of its Contact Image Sensor, requires documents
to come into physical contact with the sensor glass, creating a range of potential to come into physical contact with the sensor glass, creating a range of potential
problems when working with real-world documents. Some of these problems problems when working with real-world documents. Some of these problems
require a service call.
 The Kodak Scanner, thanks to its CCD (Charged Coupled Device) sensor’s Scanner, thanks to its CCD (Charged Coupled Device) sensor’s
intelligent design and architecture, does not require documents to come into intelligent design and architecture, does not require documents to come into
physical contact with the sensor glass, eliminating the possibility of sensor glass physical contact with the sensor glass, eliminating the possibility of sensor glass

Key takeaways:
The Kodak i780 Scanner is not at risk of sensor damage due to physical contact with
Kodak Kodak
documents during scanning, eliminating the possibility of sensor glass damage due to
contact. The Kodak i780 Scanner, using CCD technology, is designed to maximize uptime,
Kodak Kodak
reduce service calls and optimize productivity for your operation. The technology of the
Canon DR-X10C Scanner may be vulnerable to damage, and since sensor glass replacement
on the Canon Scanner requires a service call, there is a potential negative impact to uptime
and productivity.
 In a real-world environment, busy scanning operations understand that scanners
that can’t elegantly manage the occasional stapled document without interrupting
their operation and seriously impacting their productivity, cannot provide the real
“robustness” needed in actual work environments.
 The Kodak i780 Scanner handles occasional staples and common dust
without maintenance of special parts, in order to maximize uptime in busy
production environments.
 The Kodak i780 Scanner’s sensor and scanner design easily tackles common real-
world work environment hazards in a busy production scanning environment.
 The Canon DR-X10C Scanner utilizes sensor technology that may be vulnerable to
damage, and therefore puts customer productivity at risk.
 The Kodak i780 Scanner’s sensor design, including CCD technology, sensor
placement far below the paper path, protective foam barriers that protect the sensor
from staples and other contaminants introduced on scanned documents, and
customer-replaceable imaging guides, all combine to optimize image quality and
productivity in real-world customer operations.
 Kodak’s sensor technology is superior in durability to that used by Canon. For robust
imaging capabilities, turn to the brand you trust—Kodak—for technology you can
count on.
