Justification for Brand Name or Equal: Most of the archived maps to be scanned are larger than 42 inches. Due to being fragile American Indian records, they cannot be disassembled. On-going litigation requires reproduction of these maps as documents for discovery; therefore the ability to reproduce the documents is essential. The majority of the maps are fragile and aged. This 56" large scanner will allow the staff to handle copies instead of the originals which is critical to the preservation of these fragile documents. The canon ip8000 is the most compatible plotter for the software designed for the GX+ 56 scanner.
