Overview

Overview

Ultra-compact

When the scanner is in U-turn path position, paper can be scanned without adding to the device's footprint, making it the perfect choice when space is at a premium.

Versatile

The DS-C490 is extremely versatile, handling from envelopes and PL cards to long paper and A3 (stitched). It can even scan passports and booklets up to 5mm thick, capturing the MRZ zone of the passport and saving in Excel compatible formats. The DS-C490 also comes with a host of enhancement features, enabling you to improve text sharpness, as well as correcting edge folds, tears, border shadows and punch hole removal. The inbuilt Ultra-sonic sensor eliminates double feeding ensuring peace of mind that all pages are captured. Plus scan to Microsoft applications Word, Excel, PowerPoint. Compatible with Windows, Mac, and Chromebook.

Two-in-one

The selector allows you to easily switch between straight path mode and U-turn mode, even while in operation, enabling you to create a single PDF. When the scanner is in U-turn mode, paper can be scanned without adding to the device's footprint, making it the perfect choice when space is at a premium.

Lower environmental impact

With a power consumption of only 3.3W in ready mode and 1.0W in sleep mode, it will also save you energy.
