Plustek OpticBook A300 Plus flatbed scanner
The Plustek OpticBook A300 Plus is a flatbed scanner designed for digitising bound documents and oversized originals up to A3 format. Its 600 dpi optical resolution and 48-bit colour depth suit archivists, librarians and designers who need accurate reproduction without a sheet-feeder mechanism.
600 dpi optical resolution and A3 scan area
At 600 dpi the unit captures fine text and line art across a 297 mm by 420 mm platen, with a custom size option extending to 304.80 mm by 431.80 mm. Mono pages complete in 2.1 seconds and colour pages in 2.48 seconds, though throughput drops for higher-resolution or multi-pass workflows.
7.70 kg chassis with USB connectivity
The scanner weighs 7.70 kg and measures 140 mm high, 623 mm wide and 400 mm deep, so it sits stably on a desk without additional mounting. A single USB connection handles data and power, simplifying cable routing but limiting placement to the cable reach from the host computer.

Questions about this item
Will the USB connection work with my older desktop that only has USB 2.0 ports?
Yes, the USB interface is backwards compatible, so the scanner will operate on USB 2.0 ports, though maximum transfer speed will be limited to the older standard.
How can I verify the scanner is capturing at the full 600 dpi optical resolution after setup?
Scan a printed test target, then inspect the file at pixel level to confirm fine detail and line separation match the rated optical resolution.
Does the box include a USB cable, or do I need to buy one separately?
A USB cable is included in the package along with the power adapter and software media, so no separate cable purchase is required.
