Contex IQ Quattro X 3650

Overview
The Contex IQ Quattro X 3650 is a 36-inch wide, high-performance CIS scanner built for demanding technical and production scanning workflows. It combines speed, precision, and smart workflow features to handle architectural plans, engineering drawings, maps, and other large-format documents with ease.


Key Features & Benefits

  • High Throughput Performance
    In monochrome or grayscale mode the scanner reaches speeds up to 17.8 inches per second. In color (200 dpi RGB), it typically runs at 8.9 inches per second — striking a balance between speed and image quality.

  • Premium Imaging Quality
    Uses Contex’s advanced CleanScan CIS technology with Color Fringe Removal (CFR) to minimize color artifacts and deliver sharp, clean scans.

  • Live Alignment & Calibration
    Dynamic sensor alignment ensures consistency and accuracy across the full scan width, preserving detail and eliminating distortions.

  • Wide Media Support
    Handles originals up to 36 inches wide and is optimized for documents up to about 2 mm thick, suitable for most technical prints and maps.

  • Modern Connectivity & Workflow Integration
    Features Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 with advanced transfer protocols for fast data movement.
    Supports push / pull scanning over network, preset scan profiles, auto-crop, deskew, and seamless integration with Nextimage software (Scan, Archive, Repro, Remote).

  • Energy Efficient & Reliable
    Designed for low power use, with minimal standby consumption. Durable build and few moving parts reduce maintenance and ensure long-term reliability.


Ideal Use Cases & Target Users

  • Architectural, engineering, and CAD studios converting drawing sets

  • Reprographic or scanning service bureaus doing high-volume wide-format scanning

  • GIS, mapping, and surveying teams digitizing spatial documents

  • Archives, libraries, and institutions preserving technical originals

  • Environments needing fast, consistent scanning in an integrated workflow
