Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI) has recognized the Kodak i3500 Scanner with a Summer 2017 Pick Award for Outstanding Light-Production Scanner. The powerful yet compact device was chosen for its exceptional ease of use, low total cost of ownership, superior media handling and outstanding software bundle, which helps make workflows more efficient and workers more productive. Kodak Alaris has won more BLI Pick and Outstanding Achievement in Innovation Awards (25) than any other scanner manufacturer. In addition, the firm was recognized with the 2016 and 2017 Scanner Line of the Year awards from Buyers Lab, marking the first time a scanner vendor has won the award two consecutive years.
“The i3500 Scanner is a robust, reliable, and easy to use scanning solution for paper-intensive organizations,” said Jamie Bsales, Director of Software Analysis for Keypoint Intelligence – Buyers Lab. “And with a total cost of ownership that’s less than half the average for devices in its class that BLI tested, the i3500 is also an excellent value.”
“The scanner performed very well in BLI’s battery of tests, delivering flawless performance during BLI’s rigorous five-day, 125,000-scan durability test,” said Joe Ellerman, U.S. Manager of Lab Operations for Keypoint Intelligence – Buyers Lab. “And the unit offers flexible media handling. It can accommodate a wide range of paper weights and sizes, plus delicate or thick media types like rice paper and ID cards, from its 300-page ADF.”
