DSMobile Scanner

The next generation of DSmobile scanning Products!

This powerful, compact, lightweight 600-dpi color scanner is combined with dynamic software to provide you with exceptional quality scanning and easy management of documents and photos. Built for use in the office or on the road, this scanner provides much versatility.

The DSmobile 600 is a direct replacement for the DSmobile USB providing faster scanning, higher resolution and more powerful scanning. This advanced technology sheet-feed scanner and software have been specifically designed for compatibility with Window® XP, 2000, ME and 98SE. But, we haven’t forgotten the Mac user – PENTAX provides a Mac OSX 10.3 or later TWAIN driver that is downloadable from www.PENTAXtech.com.  Note: Please contact us if you have a software developer who would like to support the scanner on CE 5.0 or LINUX (each case will be evaluated to determine compatibility with the DSmobile 600).

• When quality scanning is a must and space is an issue, reach for the perfect scanning solution - the DSmobile 600 measures a mere 38mm in height and 279mm in length while weighing only 340 grams. 

• No job is too small or too large – the DSmobile 600 provides the versatility to scan media from business card size to 216mm x 356mm paper size

• Just add a PC - the unique USB power/data interface draws power directly from the PC and comes with a detachable USB cable

• High performance with low power consumption – the DSmobile 600 connects to a high-speed USB 2.0 interface yet only uses 0.2W of power while scanning

• Just a touch away from scanning – one touch of the button on the DSmobile 600 will launch your choice of compatible scanning programs. Make a preferred scanning program your default and that one touch will initiate that program.

• The DSmobile 600 is not just a scanner – it is a powerful scanning package! The DSmobile 600 ship set includes: DSmobile 600 scanner, 6 ft. USB cable, carrying bag for scanner protection, installation CD, user manual,  photo sleeves, 2 calibration sheets, and an installation guide.

Plus, purchase of the DSmobile 600 scanner includes the following software:

  • DSmobileSCAN – this program allows scanned documents to be automatically saved as Adobe® Acrobat® (PDF) format files. An added feature to this software is the ability to scan with just two touches of the DSmobile scanner button – one to initiate the program and one to initiate the scan of the document.
  • PageManager® Version 7 – an updated version of the popular software used with the DSmobile USB, this software allows a user to scan and organize digitized files with the ability to view, edit, send, and save files in many formats.
  • TWAIN – this driver allows a user to control all scanner details and settings. A user will have an array of scanning applications to choose from because TWAIN is compatible with any application that uses TWAIN device input.
