Epson Ready Scan LED technology delivers scans instantly with virtually no warm-up time, & is very power-efficient, helping to reduce your energy bills & impact on the environment. Scanning bulky books or 3D objects is no problem, as the Perfection V370 Photo's lid has an extendable hinge than can open up to 180 degrees. Even if parts of the book or object being scanned are not in contact with the scanner's glass, they will still be in focus & captured accurately. This is because Epson's CCD image sensor technology offers a greater depth of field than the CIS (contact image censor) technology used in most comparable scanners. Simple to use, the Perfection V370 Photo's enables you to conveniently scan to email at the touch of a button, or scan to multi-page, searchable PDF. Other useful photo & document editing features are available using the included software: Epson Easy Photo Fix makes it easy to bring your originals back to life by restoring faded colour, removing the appearance of dust & scratches & adjusting backlight; Optical Character Recognition (OCR) means that you can copy, paste & edit text from scanned documents; & Epson Document Capture enables direct scanning to cloud storage services, so you can access your scans from any computer or mobile device.
