Manual Scanning

Many documents – for various reasons – cannot be fed through an ADF for high-speed scanning. For these documents, manual scanning is used.

Frail documents, bound books (which cannot be cut or unbound for whatever reason) and sensitive documents which need to be checked for clarity as they are scanned, fall into this category.

Bound books can be speed scanned if we can cut the binding on your books. Otherwise, manual scanning must be used.

There is a substantial cost difference between speed scanning (lower) and manual scanning (higher).

Per page rates also vary depending on the size and condition of the documents.
