Mobile ADF scanner for home and small offices
The Plustek AD480 is a compact sheet-fed document scanner built for home users and small offices. It captures double-sided pages at up to 20 ppm through a 20-page automatic document feeder. The unit is rated for a daily duty cycle of 1500 documents. USB 2.0 provides the host connection.
Practical limits of USB 2.0 and ADF capacity
The USB 2.0 interface caps transfer bandwidth, so sustained throughput will follow that bus rather than the scanner's engine speed. The 20-page ADF suits short batches; larger jobs require reloading. Optical resolution is fixed at 600 dpi. The feeder handles standard A4 portrait sheets and plastic cards.
Robust chassis with portable footprint
A reinforced chassis supports the rated 1500 scans per day without flex. The compact form factor fits on a crowded desk or in a travel bag for mobile professionals. The ADF mechanism feeds both paper and embossed cards reliably. Bundled DocAction software handles capture, OCR and file routing.

Questions about this item
Which AD480 capacity should I choose for daily scanning of up to 1500 pages?
The AD480 handles up to 1500 documents a day with its 20-page ADF and 20 ppm duplex speed, making it suitable for consistent office workloads.
What does the 600 DPI rating mean for my scanned documents?
At 600 DPI the AD480 captures fine detail on A4 pages and plastic cards, producing sharp images that work well with OCR and archiving software.
How does the USB 2.0 interface affect scanning speed in practice?
The USB 2.0 connection supports the rated 20 ppm duplex throughput, so the scanner runs at full speed without a faster port.
