The Apple Color OneScanner was a series of peripherals, the first of which was released by Apple Computer on September 14, 1992 to succeed the grayscale Apple OneScanner.[1]

History[]

The Color OneScanner succeeded the original OneScanner from the previous year.[2] A series of updated models followed, culminating with the Color OneScanner 1200/30, which featured a resolution of 600x1200 dpi and 30-bit color scanning.[3][4] The 1200/30 included options for automatic page feeding and scanning transparent materials.[5][6] The entire OneScanner series used SCSI as its primary interface.[3][7][8][9] Sales of the final 1200/30 model ended in 1997.[10]

The scanners were offered with a variety of software. For basic scanning needs they included Ofoto one-button scanning software, and HyperScan 2.0 for scanning into HyperCard.[1] Later versions shipped with Xerox TextBridge for OCR and ColorSync support.[8]
