Shared network scanning with duplex ADF and Legal flatbed
60ppm / 120ipm at 200dpi100-sheet duplex ADFLegal flatbedGigabit Ethernet + USB 3.2
The Avision AD345GFN combines automatic duplex document feeding, Legal flatbed capture and wired network sharing. Its 100-sheet ADF reaches up to 60ppm/120ipm for colour A4 at 200dpi, or 45ppm/90ipm for colour A4 at 300dpi. Optical resolution is 600dpi through the ADF and 1200dpi on the flatbed. Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.2 Gen 1 connect it to supported office computer workflows.
Best For: Teams sharing a document scanner and handling both prepared sheet batches and suitable originals that need flatbed glass.
Before you order: Install compatible drivers and configure the manufacturer network-sharing software, such as Virtual Scanner Link, on supported computers. Email and cloud destinations depend on host applications, accounts and service compatibility. This GFN model has wired networking; Wi-Fi belongs to the separate GFWN variant. Release the flatbed transport lock before use and allow room for extended trays.
What's in the Box
- Avision AD345GFN scanner.
- USB cable, external power adapter and power cord.
- Quick guide and manufacturer driver/software resources.
- The linked family manual also lists an Ethernet cable and calibration sheet; check regional carton contents.
- Computer, network equipment and sample originals are separate.
What It Means in Practice
- Share capture across a configured compatible network using the supported driver and Virtual Scanner Link workflow.
- Use the 100-sheet ADF at its 80g/m² capacity condition for prepared suitable batches.
- Use flatbed glass for originals unsuitable for the feeder and choose the resolution for the task.
- Select the correct curved or straight paper path and media settings for supported originals.
What Will Not Work
- No Wi-Fi is specified for the exact AD345GFN; do not transfer GFWN features.
- This computer-shared network scanner is not a standalone touchscreen scan station.
- Colour speed at 300dpi is 45ppm/90ipm, not the 200dpi rating.
- Physical paper support up to 242mm does not enlarge the 216mm optical capture width.
- Current software, cloud destinations and operating-system support must be checked separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does GFN include Wi-Fi?
No. The manufacturer distinguishes GFN as USB plus Gigabit Ethernet, with Wi-Fi on the GFWN variant.
Does network sharing need a computer?
The manufacturer describes sharing through compatible computer drivers and Virtual Scanner Link. Host software destinations need their own configuration.
Is colour scanning equally fast at 300dpi?
No. Colour A4 is rated up to 60ppm/120ipm at 200dpi and 45ppm/90ipm at 300dpi.
Which optical resolution applies to each path?
The exact brochure specifies 600dpi for the ADF and 1200dpi for the flatbed.
Singular Expert Insight
Agree on the computer and network capture workflow before deploying the scanner. Test permissions, driver access and representative documents, then choose ADF or flatbed per original. Resolution affects colour speed, so use a profile that fits the output requirement rather than copying a single headline rating.
