MACWORLD EXPO NEW YORK -- July 17, 2002 -- Creo is showing the new iQsmart professional color scanners at the Macworld Expo in New York City from July 17-19. iQsmart scanners bring high-end scanning in-house, providing exceptional value and giving creative professionals complete control over scan quality. iQsmart scanners produce professional scanning results with consistent sharpness, quality, and color fidelity at an affordable price. The iQsmart3 scanners feature true optical resolution of up to 5500 dpi from edge to edge. Creo-exclusive XY Stitch scanning technology allows originals of any size to be scanned with high-quality results. Any type of original, including transparencies (positive and negative), reflective copy, mounted slides, line art, printed material, and halftone-screened films, can be scanned with excellent results. The intuitive control, automation and intelligent settings of the oXYgen scanning application put imaging power in the hands of both novices and experienced professionals alike. This application uses professional image-editing and soft-proofing tools with full ICC (International Color Consortium) color management. The unique SOOM workflow (Scan Once, Output Many) and true 16-bit color (both available on the iQsmart models) optimize scanned image quality from the first day of operation.
