\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Avision Labs has expanded its scanner portfolio with two Xerox\u2011branded devices that meet the Federal Agencies Digital Guidelines Initiative (FADGI) standards for image quality. The Xerox D70n and Xerox W130 scanners\u2014each independently tested and verified by Keypoint Intelligence\u2014are designed to help organizations comply with the federal mandate that went into effect on July 1, 2024, requiring electronic records to meet FADGI image quality specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FADGI, established in 2007 as a joint effort among U.S. federal agencies, provides shared guidelines for managing digitized and born\u2011digital materials. With the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) no longer accepting analog documents, agencies must now submit electronic records that conform to FADGI\u2019s technical benchmarks. These standards are also gaining traction among state and local agencies, as well as private\u2011sector organizations seeking to align with federal expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To support these requirements, Avision Labs is offering the Xerox D70n and Xerox W130 as FADGI\u2011compliant options. Both models are calibrated and tested prior to shipment to ensure they meet the necessary image quality thresholds. Each unit is professionally calibrated and tested prior to shipment, and depending on the selected bundle, customers may receive up to 10 remote calibrations per year to maintain compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding FADGI Ratings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

FADGI uses a four\u2011tier star rating system to evaluate image quality across tonal response, color accuracy, resolution, sharpness, and geometric distortion. An additional category, Modern Textual Records (MTR), applies to high\u2011contrast, text\u2011based documents such as laser\u2011printed pages and journals. About 95% of NARA submissions use this standard, making MTR particularly relevant for document\u2011centric environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The star ratings range from basic compliance (One Star) to the highest level of fidelity (Four Stars). Both the Xerox D70n and Xerox W130 achieve a rating of Three Stars plus MTR, indicating full compliance suitable for demanding preservation and records\u2011management applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Xerox D70n Scanner<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Xerox D70n is a departmental\u2011class scanner rated at up to 90 pages per minute (180 images per minute) with a daily duty cycle of 15,000 sheets. It includes a 100\u2011sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) and supports both USB and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. The device is TAA, EPEAT, and EnergyStar compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two bundle options are available for the D70n: the FADGI Essentials Bundle and the FADGI Pro Bundle. Both include the scanner, a tuning package, and a compliance report. The Pro Bundle adds a device target and up to five remote calibrations per year. The Essentials Bundle is offered as a one\u2011year package, while the Pro Bundle is available in one\u2011, three\u2011, or five\u2011year terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scanners that appear to produce clear images may still fail FADGI evaluations due to subtle color shifts, tonal compression, or geometric distortion that are invisible to the naked eye. The D70n is positioned to mitigate these risks through its pre\u2011shipment calibration and ongoing support options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Xerox W130 Scanner<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For higher\u2011volume environments, Avision Labs is offering the Xerox W130, a production\u2011class scanner capable of up to 135 pages per minute (270 images per minute). When scanning FADGI\u2011compliant images, the rated speed is up to 100 pages per minute. The W130 features a 500\u2011sheet ADF and a daily duty cycle of 100,000 sheets. Like the D70n, it supports USB and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and meets TAA, EPEAT, and EnergyStar requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The W130 is available exclusively as part of the FADGI Pro Bundle, which includes the scanner, tuning package, compliance report, device target, and up to 10 remote calibrations per year. The bundle is offered in one\u2011, three\u2011, or five\u2011year durations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Independent Verification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both scanners have been tested and certified by Keypoint Intelligence, one of the industry\u2019s most trusted evaluation bodies. This third\u2011party verification provides an additional layer of assurance for agencies and organizations that must meet strict federal digitization standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting the Shift to Electronic Records<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The federal government\u2019s transition away from paper records has accelerated the need for reliable, standards\u2011compliant scanning hardware. Only electronic records that meet FADGI image quality standards are accepted, and other agencies are expected to follow suit. The availability of FADGI\u2011compliant scanners from Avision Labs gives organizations a defined path toward meeting these requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With pre\u2011shipment calibration, optional remote recalibration, and documented compliance reports, the Xerox D70n and W130 provide structured support for maintaining FADGI adherence over time. Their Three\u2011Star and MTR ratings position them for use in records management, preservation\u2011grade digitization, and other applications where image quality must meet federal guidelines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
