Compact ID card scanner for mobile desks
The Overstock DS687 is a USB-powered sheetfed scanner built for A6 documents such as ID cards, licences, cheques and insurance cards. Its 600 dpi optical resolution and 48-bit colour depth capture readable images in a single pass. At 1.7 by 2.6 by 8 inches and 11.20 oz it fits in a laptop bag and draws power from the host computer.
Suits front-desk staff needing quick card capture
Ideal for reception, healthcare or field teams that scan one card at a time on cramped surfaces. The simplex path handles laminated media up to 4.13 by 5.83 inches at 4.5 seconds per scan. Not for buyers who need automatic document feeding, double-sided scanning in one pass, or network and wireless connectivity.
600 dpi optical resolution decides fit
This single figure determines whether text on small cards remains legible after enlargement. The CIS CMOS sensor delivers that resolution at 48-bit colour and 8-bit greyscale without an external power adapter. If the workflow demands higher detail or batch feeding, a different class of scanner is required.

Questions about this item
Does the CIS sensor or rollers need periodic replacement?
The DS687 uses a CIS sensor with no user-replaceable parts; clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth when feed quality drops.
What limits continuous batch scanning first?
The 4.5-second duplex scan cycle per card sets the sustained throughput ceiling.
How much heat or noise does USB power produce during all-day use?
USB power keeps draw low; the scanner runs cool and quiet with no fan, even during extended sessions.
