🌟 Introducing SilverFast 9 Express Scan: The Solution to Faster Batch Scanning

Batch scanning high volumes of originals can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to managing scanning speed. While today's scanner hardware offers excellent quality, it often comes at the expense of time. But fear not, because SilverFast 9 Express Scan is here to save the day! In this article, we'll explore how this innovative software tackles the challenge of batch scanning and provides incredible speed gains for flatbed scanners.

The Challenge of Batch Scanning

Batch scanning multiple images can be a laborious and time-consuming process. Conventional flatbed scanners typically require multiple scanning passes to capture adjacent images, resulting in a significant time investment. But with SilverFast Express Scan, you can say goodbye to long scanning Sessions and hello to efficiency and productivity.

The Solution: SilverFast Express Scan

SilverFast Express Scan is a revolutionary scanning method that streamlines the batch scanning process. By intelligently reducing the number of scanning passes, it significantly improves scanning speed without compromising on image quality. This feature is automatically activated when the software detects the right conditions, making it incredibly convenient for users.

How SilverFast Express Scan Works

Let's take a closer look at how SilverFast Express Scan accomplishes such impressive speed gains. In a traditional scanning process, the scanner's sensor unit performs multiple scanning passes over each individual image, capturing them one by one. However, with Express Scan, the software utilizes the whole width of the sensor unit to capture multiple images simultaneously.

Imagine you have a holder with 12 framed 35mm slides arranged in rows. In a normal scanning process, one row of three slides would take approximately 6 minutes to scan. However, with SilverFast Express Scan, those 6 minutes could result in scanning nine slides instead of just three. This not only saves time but also boosts productivity when dealing with large volume scanning projects.

Incredible Speed Gains for Flatbed Scanners

SilverFast Express Scan is designed to optimize the scanning speed of flatbed scanners. By capturing multiple images in a single pass, it minimizes the time needed to complete a batch scan. The software intelligently detects and utilizes the right conditions to activate Express Scan, ensuring that your scanning workflow remains efficient and hassle-free.

Comparison with Traditional Scanning Methods

To truly understand the benefits of SilverFast Express Scan, let's compare it to traditional scanning methods. For example, a 12-slide batch scan using the Epson Perfection V850 with 2400 PPI multi-exposure active and saved as 64-bit HDRI raw scanner data took 27 minutes and 20 seconds without Express Scan. However, with Express Scan enabled, the same batch scan was completed in just 13 minutes and 8 seconds – a remarkable time-saving of over 50%!

Real-World Examples

Scanning large volumes of originals can be a time-consuming endeavor, but SilverFast Express Scan transforms the experience. A 30-slide batch scan with the Epson Expression 12,000 XL, also with multi-exposure active and saved as 48-bit HDR raw scanner data, took a staggering 1 hour, 22 minutes, and 3 seconds without Express Scan. However, with Express Scan enabled, the scanning time was drastically reduced to only 25 minutes and 43 seconds – a significant time-saving that allows you to focus on other tasks.

Supported Scanners
