Main Benefits
File Server
Independence
The AXIS 700 comes pre-installed with all the network functionality
required. Communication takes place directly between the network
client and the AXIS 700, i.e. peer-to-peer. No server-based
applications are required to be installed before the AXIS 700 can be
used.
Ease of Use
The AXIS 700 is designed to be as easy as possible to install and use:
• No special software to learn
• Integrated scanner drivers, image-file creation and network
transfer methods
• Auto-detection of scanner type at startup
• Auto-selection of sheet feeder or flatbed
• Destination and scanning profiles saved for regular use
Flexibility
The range of transfer methods and image formats enable you to adapt
the AXIS 700 to your needs rather than the other way round.
Speed
The AXIS 700 uses the AXIS ETRAX chip, a 32 bit RISC processor,
and supports scanners with built-in compression and image-processing
modules.
Security
Configurations can be protected by supervisor login and passwords.
Maintenance
Using Flash memory for storing the AXIS 700 software means that it
is easy to upgrade the software from the network using FTP.
Network
Management
Management is made a simple process using a Web browser.
