The University of Oregon's Educational Technology Committee, Network Services, Telecom, and Facilities Services have partnered to purchase a large-format scanner for university use. The scanner will be available to the university community sometime in February 2005.

The new scanner, an Action Imaging Colortrac 4280, can scan documents up to 42 inches wide and half an inch thick. It will be housed at the School of Architecture and Allied Arts (A&AA) Output Room (280 Lawrence), where staff will be available to provide expert assistance to customers scanning large documents. The Output Room is also equipped with large-format color and black and white printers capable of producing signs, posters, banners, and blueprints.

To cover staffing and maintenance costs, customers will be charged a nominal fee to use the scanner.

To learn more about the specifications of the new scanner, visit the manufacturer's website at http://www.action-imaging.com/colortrac.htm

If you have questions about the large-format scanner or if you would like to use it once it arrives on campus, please contact Karl Owens, A&AA Output Room Manager (karlo@uoregon.edu). The Output Room is open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., on Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Saturdays from noon to 6 p.m.
