Product identity
The Ambir PS667-AS Simplex A6 scanner captures single-sided ID cards, cheques and licences using a CMOS contact image sensor. It is built for front-desk staff in healthcare, banking and retail who need fast, accurate digitisation of laminated or embossed plastic cards.
Build and connectivity
The unit measures 7.50" x 2.00" x 1.60" and weighs .54 lb, drawing power from a USB 2.0 port that is also compatible with USB 1.1. Its ultra-compact footprint suits crowded counters and mobile workstations, while the 1.40 mm media thickness allowance handles rigid cards without a feeder mechanism.
Deciding specification
Maximum optical resolution reaches 600 dpi with 48-bit internal colour depth, outputting 24-bit true colour, 8-bit grayscale and 1-bit black-and-white. A single-sided grayscale scan at 300 dpi completes in 3 seconds, defining the throughput ceiling for high-volume queues.
