The machine scans originals at up to 5 m/min for black & white and 4 m/min. for color, handling any size of document quickly and efficiently. 

Superb quality every time

Time after time the Océ TC4 delivers accurate scanning and superb image quality in both color and black & white thanks to Océ Direct Scan technology. Unique “single camera, single mirror” architecture eliminates the risk of distortion and ensures consistent colors with 600 dpi resolution. The result is uniformly accurate color over long periods of operation and high legibility of text and fine details. 

More time savings

As well as delivering high speed scanning, the Océ TC4 saves even more time with several operational features. Users can predefine scan settings and file destinations in templates that can be instantly accessed for repeat jobs. They can scan to the controller, the web or project archives, and the scan job manager makes it easy to manage scan jobs and keep track of files.  

Right first time

The Océ TC4 scanner also incorporates Océ Color Image Logic. This intelligent image processing technology automatically enhances the image quality of even the most difficult documents. Mixed originals, maps, photos, offset materials and review drawings with handwritten annotations can all be accurately scanned on the first go without the need for complex manual settings.  

Growth path to Océ hybrid system

The Océ TC4 is available in two models, one for originals up to 3 mm thick and another for originals up to 15 mm thick. Customers can also extend the scanner with any printer from the Océ TDS (B/W) and TCS (color) range to create a complete system offering concurrent scanning, copying and printing.
