Kodak i3450 High-Speed 90 PPM Document Scanner

The Kodak i3450 High-Speed Document Scanner is a production-class document scanner designed for organizations that need to process large volumes of paper documents through an automatic document feeder. It provides scanning speeds of up to 90 pages per minute and 180 images per minute, a recommended daily volume of up to 30,000 pages, 600 dpi optical resolution, dual CCD scanning technology and USB 3.2 Gen 1×1 connectivity. The i3450 also combines automatic document feeding with an integrated A4 flatbed, making it suitable for workflows that involve both standard document batches and materials that need flatbed scanning.

Product Features

Up to 90 PPM High-Speed Scanning

The Kodak i3450 can scan at up to 90 pages per minute or 180 images per minute. Kodak Alaris notes that actual throughput can vary depending on the driver software, operating system, computer configuration and selected image-processing functions.

Up to 30,000 Pages Per Day

Kodak Alaris specifies a recommended daily volume of up to 30,000 pages per day for the i3450 automatic document feeder. This makes the scanner suited to organizations handling substantial document volumes as part of their regular workflow.

Integrated A4 Flatbed

The i3450 includes an integrated A4-size flatbed, providing an alternative scanning method for documents that are not appropriate for the automatic document feeder. Kodak Alaris specifies a recommended daily volume of 100 pages for the integrated A4 flatbed.

600 DPI Optical Resolution

The scanner provides 600 dpi optical resolution, with supported output resolutions ranging from 100 to 1,200 dpi. This allows the scanning resolution to be selected according to the document and workflow requirements.

Dual CCD Scanning Technology

The i3450 uses dual CCD scanning technology. Kodak Alaris specifies 48-bit colour capture, 24-bit colour output and 8-bit grayscale output.

Intelligent Document Protection

The scanner includes Intelligent Document Protection, a document-feeding feature designed to help detect potential feeding problems as documents pass through the scanner.

Ultrasonic Multifeed Detection

Ultrasonic multifeed technology helps detect situations where multiple sheets may enter the feeder together. This is particularly relevant when processing batches of documents where overlapping pages could affect the scanning process.

Flexible Paper Handling

The i3450 supports paper from 34 to 413 g/m², with documents wider than 200 g/m² directed through the rear exit when the appropriate paper path is selected.

Long Document Scanning

The scanner supports documents up to 305 mm wide and 4.06 metres long, with the maximum supported size depending on output resolution and image compression. Kodak Alaris also specifies continuous cropping for unlimited document length in supported configurations.

USB 3.2 Gen 1×1 Connectivity

The i3450 supports USB 3.2 Gen 1×1, which Kodak Alaris identifies as the same 5 Gbps generation also referred to as USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 Gen 1. The scanner is also specified with USB 2.0 connectivity.

Image Processing Features

The i3450 supports Kodak Alaris Perfect Page image-processing functions, including automatic colour detection, deskew, automatic orientation, blank-page removal, cropping, background processing, electronic colour dropout, sharpening and barcode reading.

Barcode Reading

The scanner supports barcode recognition for formats including Codabar, Code 128, Code 3 of 9, EAN-13, EAN-8, Interleaved 2 of 5, PDF417, UPC-A and UPC-E.

Multiple Output Formats

The i3450 supports file formats including BMP, JPEG, TIFF, PDF and RTF, with searchable PDF available through supported bundled applications.

LCD Operator Display

The scanner has a graphical LCD display with four operator control buttons for accessing its functions.

High-Volume Document Scanning

The Kodak i3450 is built around a high-volume document workflow. Its combination of 90 ppm scanning, 180 ipm duplex throughput and a recommended daily volume of up to 30,000 pages makes the ADF the primary scanning path for large document batches.

The integrated A4 flatbed provides an additional scanning option when a document needs to be handled individually rather than through the automatic feeder. Kodak Alaris specifically distinguishes the flatbed’s recommended daily volume from the ADF volume, so the 30,000-page figure should not be interpreted as a daily recommendation for flatbed scanning.

Who Is the Kodak i3450 Suitable For?

The i3450 is suited to organizations with substantial document-scanning workloads where speed, document handling and a defined daily scanning volume are important considerations.

It can be considered for document-intensive environments such as records processing, administrative departments, financial documentation, forms and other workflows involving large quantities of paper documents.

The appropriate scanner should still be selected according to the expected daily volume, document types, required resolution, connectivity and software environment rather than speed alone.

Why Choose the Kodak i3450?

The Kodak i3450 brings together high-speed duplex scanning, a 30,000-page recommended daily volume, an integrated A4 flatbed, 600 dpi optical resolution, USB 3.2 Gen 1×1 connectivity and document-feeding protection features.

Its specifications make it a strong option to consider when comparing high-volume document scanners for an organization that needs to digitize substantial quantities of paper records while retaining the flexibility of a flatbed for suitable documents.
