Linotype-Hell Topaz II
Linotype-Hell has redefined high-end production scanning. The Topaz stands apart from its competitors in every way, including amazing optical quality in both detail and color, very high resolutions, unparalleled CMYK separation, and full support for the Lab color specification.

We examined the best-rated scanners on the market before deciding on this device; the Topaz proved itself easily superior to the best offerings from such competing vendors as Scitex, Crossfield and Itek.
