Making large format scanning easy

Scanning large format documents demands specialised software capable of handling their size effectively. Nextimage 5 excels in this regard, supporting ultra-long scanning in both TIFF and PDF formats, extending beyond 200”. Unlike other software that may experience lag or freezing, Nextimage is engineered with cutting-edge 64-bit processor technology, ensuring smooth operation even with large data and file sizes.

This optimisation enhances workflow efficiency, enabling seamless editing and timely completion of tasks. Its user-friendly interface and intuitive menus allow for quick access to key functions, with Repro editions tailored to support touchscreen monitors, ideal for workstation setups.

A choice of 2 great versions

Nextimage 5 comes in two versions, giving you the choice of the right solution for your needs.

Scan+Archive is perfect for users looking to scan and digitise their collections. Scan in vibrant colour in sRGB, Adobe RGB, and even save to 48-bit with selected scanners. Capture and improve maps using advanced filters and colour reduction options while digitising, and restore monochrome originals with unique adaptive filters and advanced background suppression.

Repro builds on the features of Scan+Archive but adds additional features for users using their Contex scanner with a large format printer. These include an extensive list of over 300 supported large format printers, a batch copy option, a closed loop colour calibration and ICC colour management.

New remote control option

Liberate yourself from your computer and harness the power of the Nextimage Remote app—an indispensable Android or Apple application that empowers you to take command via your tablet! (tablet not supplied)

The Nextimage Remote app introduces a fresh approach to your workflow, enabling remote software control for enhanced productivity. Available as a free download*, it grants access to all your essential settings, features, and presets.

Compatible with both Scan+Archive and Repro versions of Nextimage 5, this app seamlessly integrates into your scanning setup, offering unparalleled convenience and versatility.

* SD One+ and IQ Quattro 2490 models do not support scanning to FADGI 3 star standard. All other features and benefits remain the same, however.
