HD Ultra X is the fastest collection of scanners Contex has ever made. With a top speed of up to 17.8 ips, you can increase your workflow tempo significantly. You can also switch between three different speed levels directly on the scanner’s intuitive touch panel. If speed doesn’t impress you, look at the width.

This series includes the world’s first 60-inch CCD scanner, but also comes in 36- and 42-inch widths. The size-flexibility, our Nextimage software and the unprecedented scan width gives you the flexibility to be smart and create a more efficient workflow.

Exceed FADGI 3-star compliance by operating HD Ultra X with Nextimage 7 software. The ICC Color Management in Nextimage 7 software is made with industry-leading X-Rite® color profiling. Like all other Contex large format scanners, HD Ultra X is Energy Star 3.0 certified.

With the HD Ultra X series, we have tried to reduce the total cost of ownership because we know how much it matters to you. We’ve used optimized LED lights, so you don’t have to think about replacing the lamps. Nor do you have to worry about maintenance to the same extent as other large format scanners. Best of all, we’ve made the glass super-resistant to scratches and created a paper handling design that will prolong the life of your consumables.

This all adds up to the most efficient and flexible large format scanner series on the market.

Compatibility

• All leading large format printer brands
• Nextimage
• Windows OS

USB 3.0 SuperSpeed xDTR3

Contex has adapted their xDTR technology to work with the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed protocol increasing its performance dramatically. It has the fastest data transfer rate of any scanner on the market.

Gigabit Ethernet xDTR2.5

Optimized for up to 100 MB per second. Up to 60% faster transfer rate than with xDTR2 thanks to new improved electronics.

Contex True Size Detection

HD Ultra X finds the paper width as it scans. No wasted time. No shoe shine just instant width detection. No more backwards and forwards movement of document while feeding it into the scanner. Just load and scan.

Static Free Touchless Glass System

Enjoy virtually scratch free glass plates thanks to the new design of the white background pressure plate in the HD Ultra X. The pressure point is offset of the scanning line helping the glass stay free from scratches. The Minimal-friction, floating transport design of glass plate with new quick-release magnetic scan glass system, makes replacement or cleaning of glass plate easier and faster than ever.

Multiple exposures per scan line

Contex scanners have the option to digitize each scan line multiple times which will reduce image noise even further. Scanning with minimum 4 exposures per scan line ensures FADGI compliance.

Contex Perfect Light

Contex Perfect Light comes from engineers carefully selecting the very latest in light-emitting diode technology (LEDs) and combining this with specially developed diffusion filters.

OTAC

Optimized Thickness Adjustment Control. With one press of a lever, raise and lower the OTAC to suit required media thickness. It is very fast.

Gbit throttling buffer control

1GB buffer eliminates scanner pausing. Maintain your scan speeds and meet those deadlines.

FlexDoc

Combining automatic thickness adjustment control (ATAC), all wheel drive (AWD), automatic contour correction and a new paper pressure adjustment, FlexDoc enables you to scan anything from newspaper-thin documents to posters on foam boards, gator boards and other bulky documents up to 0.6” thick.

FlexFeed

With removable, no-rewind paper return guides, right-side loading, a funnelshaped feeder, and a convenient new exit tray, FlexFeed takes the hassle out of scanning any document, even up to 60″ wide.

SnapSize

SnapSize makes it faster and easier to switch between different-sized documents by eliminating the need for manual software adjustments. Precision optical paper sensors register your document size and adjust the required settings automatically.

SmartShare

Through Ethernet, SmartShare lets all users in a workgroup operate the scanner directly from their own computer.

AccuColor

To get the best results, your scanner and software should work with full 48-bit data. Where other scanners ignore some of this data, newer Contex scanners work with true 48-bit color capture.

CCD

Contex uses All-Digital cameras with advanced point-of-origin capture and onboard digital conversion ensuring minimum noise and an extended dynamic range. The unique four-linear CCD technology, with a special panchromatic line, ensures that no colors are lost when scanning monochrome. Quality colormatched LED lighting ensures the market’s highest standards for color correctness.

ALE

Accuracy Lens Enhancement (ALE) technology that electronically maintains 0.1% +- pixel precision across any two points of the scan line thus exceeding even the most rigid requirements in the industry today. Contex delivers a very high grade of precision stability in the scanned image.
