Epson WorkForce DS-860 Color Document Scanner

The Epson WorkForce DS-860 Color Document Scanner is a high-speed sheet-fed scanner designed for businesses and organizations that need efficient, reliable document digitization. Its one-pass duplex technology, large-capacity ADF and advanced paper-handling features make it suitable for demanding office workflows.

The DS-860 can scan at speeds of up to 65 pages per minute (ppm) / 130 images per minute (ipm) at 200 and 300 dpi in black-and-white, grayscale and color modes. Because both sides of a document are captured in a single pass, double-sided documents can be processed efficiently without manually turning the pages.

An 80-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) allows users to process batches of documents with minimal manual intervention. It supports documents ranging from approximately 50.8 × 50.8 mm up to 215.9 × 3048 mm, including extra-long documents, business cards and rigid plastic ID cards. Paper weights from 40 to 210 g/m² are supported.

The scanner features 600 dpi optical resolution, a one-line CMOS contact image sensor and a three-color RGB LED light source. It supports 48-bit internal / 24-bit external color and 16-bit internal / 8-bit external grayscale, allowing detailed digital capture of business documents and images.

Epson's advanced paper-handling technology includes dynamic skew correction, automatic paper-size detection and double-feed detection, helping reduce paper jams and misfeeds. The DS-860 can also scan folded oversized documents without requiring a carrier sheet and supports rigid ID cards, including embossed cards.

For document management, the DS-860 supports TWAIN and ISIS drivers and includes Epson Scan, Document Capture Pro and EMC Captiva ISIS software. Users can create searchable PDFs using OCR and configure up to 30 user-definable scan jobs, with up to 9 jobs selectable from the scanner's front control panel.

The scanner connects through Hi-Speed USB 2.0, while an optional Network Interface Unit can provide network connectivity for shared office scanning. Its recommended daily duty cycle is up to 6,000 sheets, making it suitable for high-volume document processing environments.

Warranty: Epson's current U.S. product page lists a 3-Year Warranty with Next-Business-Day Replacement, while the original product specification document lists a 1-year limited warranty. Because warranty terms depend on region and product stock, the applicable Bangladesh warranty should be confirmed with the seller before purchase.
