Detailed Specifications
Epson B11B273201 DS-1730 Flatbed and ADF Color Document Scanner
Overview :
The Epson B11B273201 (DS-1730) is a commercial-grade, high-productivity duplex document scanner that combines a standard flatbed surface with an integrated Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). Records managers, procurement officers, and IT administrators deploy this hardware inside corporate offices, medical facilities, legal firms, and financial institutions to digitize high volumes of mixed media. It directly resolves the operational challenge of processing large stacks of uniform paperwork alongside delicate, bound, or irregularly shaped physical records.
Operating with a dual Contact Image Sensor (CIS) architecture, the scanner delivers single-pass duplex scanning at speeds up to 30 pages per minute (ppm) or 60 images per minute (ipm) at standard 300 dpi.The integrated 60-sheet ADF automates long runs of multi-page documents, supporting continuous sheets up to 120 inches in length. Concurrently, the 8.5 x 11.7-inch flatbed platen handles books, passports, identification cards, and fragile historical documents that cannot tolerate the mechanical stress of automated rollers.
The device interfaces with desktop workstations via a USB 2.0 interface and natively includes industry-standard TWAIN and ISIS software drivers. This compliance ensures plug-and-play compatibility with enterprise document management systems (DMS) and electronic health record (EHR) platforms. Included Epson Document Capture Pro software streamlines scanning routines, utilizing integrated optical character recognition (OCR) to output searchable PDFs and editable text formats directly to network directories or corporate cloud repositories. Do not deploy this scanner over a local area network without a dedicated host PC, as it lacks standalone RJ45 Ethernet or Wi-Fi hardware controllers.
Key Features :
Dual-media layout captures bound books and 60-page ADF document stacks easily.
Single-pass duplex hardware processes 60 ipm to optimize office workflows.
TWAIN and ISIS drivers ensure drop-in compatibility with enterprise software.
Advanced media handling prevents paper jams and protects fragile originals.
