Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the fi-8950's imaging system is a CIS sensor that delivers 24-bit color depth for accurate color reproduction and 8-bit grayscale for detailed monochrome documents. The scanner achieves 300 images per minute in both color and monochrome modes when counting both sides of duplex documents. Media handling is robust, with support for standard A4 paper up to large-format documents, accommodating diverse business needs from legal offices to engineering departments.
Connectivity options include USB 3.2 for high-speed data transfer alongside backward compatibility with USB 3.0, 2.0, and 1.1 standards. Integrated wireless LAN enables flexible placement within office environments without cable constraints. The scanner's physical profile measures 18.11" wide by 16.93" deep by 12.40" high, with a substantial 50.71-pound weight that reflects its industrial-grade construction.
