12、73:199920081Information technology - Office equipment - Minimum informationto be specified for image scanners1 ScopeThis International Standard is intended to facilitate user selection of an image scanner. This International Standardspecifies the minimum information that shall be included by manufac
13、turers in their specification sheets for scanners.This International Standard is made for the average end user. For this reason it does not describe all specificationsof scanners with special features such as double sided scanning or high speed. By insuring consistency ofspecification of scanner pro
14、duct information, this International Standard enables the end user to make meaningfulcomparisons of machine functionality and performance characteristics. The most meaningful parameters of functionand performance are specified and defined, and measures of performance are provided.This International
15、Standard further applies to types of scanners which are most prevalent in use, includingparameters for a scanning engine (an optomechanical physical device) and basic image processing only (thoseprocesses include digital data output with encoded gray scale, or unencoded single bit plus halftone data
16、). It does notrequire specification of advanced application processing such as OCR, translation, vector conversion, etc. Becausescanners use both software and/or hardware to achieve some scanner functions and controls, the standard containssome entries related to software even though the standard is
17、 primarily for scanner hardware. The manufacturer, athis option, may include description of such additional functionality which may be provided. This standard also doesnot consider image quality, nor does it provide or use related test targets.2 Normative referencesThe following standards contain pr
