Key Features

Interface: The scanners use different interfaces (usually cables and connectors) to connect to other devices on the other, such as a computer. Some interfaces transmit data faster than others, but the most important point is to ensure that the scanner interface corresponds to the device you want to use. USB 2.0
Type: Film Scanners
Film scanners are designed for scanning photographic film. There are different models depending on the type of film you want to scan (35 mm, monochrome and slides for example).

Fingerprint scanners
The fingerprint scanners are designed to read and identify fingerprints.

Flatbed scanners
Flatbed scanners are equipped with a glass plate on top, which is placed on the image to be scanned. A cover is then folded over the image (like a xerox machine) and the scanning device located below, inside the scanner, into action to capture and save the image.

Handheld Scanners
The handheld scanners can be reserved for different uses. Some small and portable, are used to scan documents. Others are used to read UPC codes or scan business cards.

ScannersPass-Through
Scanners in a single pass are very similar to flatbed scanners. The difference is that in a flatbed scanner, the scanning device that goes under the picture to read, while in a scanner in a single pass, it is the image that is passed by the scanning device, which remains flat immobile.Scanner
Optical Resolution 1200 dpi
Max. (Hardware): 1200 x 1200 dpi
Max. (Interpolated): The interpolated resolution is the ability of a scanner to "fill" the spaces between the digitized points. When the interpolated resolution is very high, this means that the scanner and its software work well together to produce an image that can be considerably agrandie.1200 x 1200 dpi
Platform: Platform is a synonym of operating system (Windows or Macintosh for example). It is important that your scanner is adapted to the operating system of the computer you intend to use. PC
Color Depth. : The color resolution is called color depth. It is the number of bits used to represent a pixel. More this setting, the higher the number of colors displayed in an image is important. Resolutions 24-bit color (equal to about 16 million colors) and are considered particularly high. A resolution8 bit is 256 colors, and a 16-bit resolution to about 65,000 colors. If an 8 bit resolution is probably low for an average user, the 24-bit is certainly more than suffisante.24 bit (16.7 million colors)

Specifications

Dimensions: The format describes the physical characteristics of your printer and for which it is designed. The desktop scanners and fixed scanners are the types of scanners the most common. There are also portable scanners, usually much smaller than other models, and more convenient for mobile use. The plug-in scanners and handheld are special devices used in industries very particuliers.Bureau

Gray Depth max. : The resolution of gray up to a scanner is the maximum number of shades of gray that can reproduce. Like the color resolution, the resolution expressed in bits of gray. It assesses the color rendition, in other words, the "precision" with which the colors of the scanned image have been reproduced from the original .8-bit (256 grayscale)
