Offering a user-friendly touchscreen interface and intuitive features to improve ease-of-use, the imageFORMULA ScanFront 400 networked document scanner provides users with the ability to capture, convert and share documents to improve collaboration and productivity in networked environments. This device is also the first in the scanner category to receive an EPEAT® Gold rating, the definitive global environmental rating system for electronics managed by the Green Electronics Council. EPEAT considers environmental criteria from the full product lifecycle, from design to production, and end of life. Previewed to audiences in September at the ARMA 2016 conference in San Antonio, Texas, the ScanFront 400 device lends itself for application across a variety of industries and vertical markets, including finance, legal services, retail, manufacturing, and healthcare, to allow users to better collaborate and share information both locally and remotely.

Canon’s latest networked document scanner, the imageFORMULA ScanFront 400, is not only environmentally friendlier than products that do not meet EPEAT’s criteria, but also helps users handle their paper-based information more efficiently and meet expectations to better serve their business needs.”
