  • Technical Details

    Uses a desktop flatbed scanner, either a standard 8.5” x 11” format, or a 12" x 17" scanner that can accept industry standard 12" x 12" test specimens. We recommend and supply an Epson V800 Photo scanner or equivalent for the smaller standard.  If working with standard 12 x 12 specimens we will supply an Epson wide-bed scanner like the 12000XL Graphic Arts Scanner.

    A PC with Windows 10 and a local copy of Excel. The PC should have 7 or more cores and 16 GB of memory.  If storing image files on the PC, a 2 - 4 TB drive or internal network cloud should be provided as the image files can take up a lot of memory space.

    Verity IA supplies a weighted specimen pallet to hold curled samples flat against the scanner glass.  What’s included:  Verity IA Light & Dark software, license, security key, and weighted pallet.
