Bit depth means the number of bits per pixel, so the higher the bit depth, the greater number of grayscales the system can scan.
Duplex scanning means scanning both sides of a page at once.
Maximum scan size shows maximum dimensions of the scanned document.
The device can deliver one-sided scans in grayscale faster. Speed is an issue for high-volume scanning, mostly with document scanners and it's measured in pages per minute.
The device can deliver one-sided color scans faster.

Features
Borderless printing allows you to print with no margins on the edge of the page. It’s particularly useful for printing photos or other graphics where you don’t wish to have borders.
The size of the screen (measured diagonally).
You can operate the device easily, by pressing the screen with your fingers.
The max print memory is the biggest memory capacity that the printer can support. The memory is important in determining the performance of the printer, and an extendable memory is desirable.
There is a dedicated smartphone app that is designed to be used with the device.
Optical Character Recognition lets you convert images with text into text documents (using automated computer algorithms). The text information is attached to PDF, which is then searchable.
A page preview screen gives you the opportunity to check that the page looks okay.
More printer memory can result in faster performance as the printer doesn't have to continue retrieving data from the source. It is important when printing large files such as high resolution images.
With the Skip Blank Page function while scanning one-sided and two-sided documents at the same time, you can delete images of blank pages to produce scanned images without redundancy. This function is also effective with colored-paper documents that are blank.
Miscellaneous
The device can save and synchronize documents with internal network.
