IDEAL Introduces Contex SD Scanners
 ROCKVILLE,
MD, June 2, 2008 - Today IDEAL and their extensive dealer channel begin
taking orders for the newly launched Contex SD Series - a new range of high
production, affordable large format scanners. The SD Series leads the
industry with the highest resolution, ease of use and speed available in its
class, making it the best product range on the market for scanning technical
drawings or maps in color or monochrome.
 IDEAL
is Contex's Distributor of the Year and for many years has maintained that
position by including Contex's high-quality, CCD-based scanners in their
large format imaging solutions. IDEAL recently announced the addition of
Contex's HD Series scanners that deliver the most advanced scanning
technology in the industry. The addition of the CIS-based SD scanners
broadens the range of options that IDEAL offers.
"Today's announcement of the SD Series scanners adds a new dimension to
the solutions that IDEAL offers," says Phil Magenheim, Vice President. "Now
IDEAL can offer economical SD scanning solutions to companies that work with
line-art drawings, CAD prints, simple color maps, or even text or data
logs."
"We're very pleased that Contex has used its CCD large format scanner
expertise to create a new generation of affordable large format CIS
scanners," adds Jay Magenheim, president. He adds, "The CIS technology that
Contex uses leap-frogs the technology ahead. It has been specially designed
to give the best image quality on the market, and the professional design of
the SD scanners maintains Contex's reputation as the scanner for
professionals."
