Contex's Crystal G600 Wins Reader's Choice Top Products of 2007 Award

Wide-Format Imaging magazine readers have voted the Contex Crystal G600 42" professional scanner the best large format scanner on the market. The magazine's second annual Reader's Choice Top Products awards recognize imaging products that have generated the most industry excitement and are making a big contribution to their customers' businesses. This year, the Crystal G600 came out on top in the 24-inch+ Scanner category. And it's easy to see why.

Contex's Crystal G600 delivers a variety of built-in features that make high-quality large format scanning simple, fast and cost-effective. The scanner offers the best color data capture in the industry. And with a 42" imaging area, it's ideal for scanning large color posters, architectural sketches, and detailed maps.

"The Crystal G600 gives our customers great color capability at a very favorable price. It's an excellent solution for any business that needs a powerful color scanner with monochrome options. And there's no doubt that it delivers the best value for the money," says Thomas Weldingh, VP, Sales and Marketing for Contex operations.

Crisp reproductions, easy enhancements
The Crystal G600 produces vivid, true-to-life scans even from low-quality originals. The scanner's patented B/W adaptive thresholding works simultaneously on all aspects of the original to render sharp digital images. And the powerful image processing embedded in the scanner's hardware enables users to enhance images much faster than standard software processing would allow all without additional software overheads.

Shortcut button makes it easy to use images
With the Crystal G600's convenient programmable shortcut buttons, users can complete common tasks with the press of a single button. The scanner automatically opens the scanned image in the required format so it's instantly ready for use - making copying, emailing, and other tasks quick and simple.

Taking good care of thick and delicate originals
Old and oversized documents are often extremely fragile. The Crystal G600 uses Contex's revolutionary All-Wheel-Drive technology to care for delicate and valuable originals. Moreover, the scanner's Automatic Thickness Adjustment Control feature allows scanning of media up to 15 mm thick - so even mounted posters can be reproduced in electronic form.
