The fi-8040 offers new options to meet real-world productivity with "DirectScan" function with PC-less network compatibility. It enables PC-less scans and attaches the scans to emails directly. Despite being compact, the scanner achieves scan speeds of 40 ppm/80 ipm (200/300 dpi, color, A4 portrait), loads up to 50 sheets at a time, and comes equipped with a capability of scanning up to as many as 6,000 sheets a day.

Save scans directly to network folders
Equipped with the "DirectScan" function*, the fi-8040 enables PC-less scan and saves scanned data directly to network folders or FTP servers by setting destination storage locations in advance. The setting can be done easily with a web browser for a single unit or with the "Scanner Central Admin Desktop" software for multiple units. The scanner acts as a platform for business solutions to share data among multiple departments, work teams, and remote work environments.
*DirectScan function is available only when the time is synchronized with an NTP server.

Attach scans to e-mails directly and share with multiple users
Compact but equipped with a 4.3-inch touch screen, the scanner allows ease of designating recipients, attaching and sending scans, all from the touch screen. Filenames and sizes can be verified before sending. The fi-8040 is an ideal scanner for use with multiple users in office as well, for information sharing, as a possible replacement for the conventional fax.

Seamless integration with client systems. Workflow efficiency
Use the PaperStream NX Manager* to link scanned data to business software applications and cloud services. Explore enhanced workflow efficiency, and implement work operations smoothly to include wider variety of locations on trusted and stable environment.

Boosted usability and flexibility for any environment
User-friendly 4.3-inch touch screen for easy operation
Equipped with the touch screen on its compact body of the scanner, users are able to check scanned data before saving, attaching, and sending scans, all on the touch screen.

Supports scanning of wide range of documents
The scanner handles various types of documents, including plastic cards and A3, bi-folded, and multi-layered documents without the need for a carrier sheet. Plastic cards up to a thickness of 0.7mm can be read as well.

Optimized high-quality image data for business use
Combining the new CIS sensor with the GI image processing engine suppresses the occurrence of color shifts. "PFU Clear Image Capture" produces high definition images for data extraction while keeping power consumption to the minimum and reduces startup times.

Advanced software for higher productivity
Connect business workflow with PaperStream IP and PaperStream Capture
The PaperStream IP scanner driver, supporting both TWAIN/ISIS, eliminates the need of making fine setting adjustments for OCR processes. It automatically converts images into exceptionally clean images, accelerating OCR even when scanning wrinkled, soiled and patterned documents. With an intuitive interface, PaperStream Capture allows users to feed information into their organization's workflow through various capture features during batch scanning effectively and efficiently.
