A4 flatbed and 50-sheet ADF document scanner
Epson WorkForce DS-1630 Flatbed and ADF Document Scanner
A compact colour document scanner that pairs an A4 flatbed with a 50-sheet automatic document feeder, so loose paper goes through the ADF at 25 ppm with duplex scanning while books, bound documents, passports and delicate items go on the glass. It connects over USB 3.0, scans at up to 1200 x 1200 dpi optical on the flatbed, and is rated for 1,500 pages a day. Auto crop, skew correction and blank page and background removal tidy every scan, and Epson Document Capture Pro adds zonal OCR, barcode recognition and searchable PDF output.

Key Features
Flatbed and 50-Sheet ADF in One Compact Body
Loose paper goes through the 50-sheet ADF at 25 ppm with duplex scanning, and anything that cannot go through rollers — books, bound documents, passports and delicate items — goes on the A4 flatbed. Epson rates the DS-1630 as having the smallest footprint in its class, so it fits a front desk as easily as a back office.
Clean Scans Without Manual Fixes
Auto crop, skew correction and blank page and background removal straighten and tidy each page as it is scanned. Epson's feature list adds text enhancement, punch hole removal, colour dropout, descreening and edge fill, with full zonal OCR and barcode recognition for indexing documents as they come in.
Built for the Daily Office Stack
Rated for 1,500 pages a day and connected over USB 3.0, it saves straight to searchable PDF, PDF/A, secure PDF, multi-TIFF, JPEG and BMP. Epson Document Capture Pro on Windows, Document Capture on Mac and Epson Scan 2 are included, with Document Capture Pro Server available as a free download.

Need-to-Know
- The 1200 x 1200 dpi optical resolution is the flatbed's figure. The ADF scans at 600 x 600 dpi, so put originals that need fine detail on the glass.
- This is a USB 3.0 scanner. Epson lists no network connection, no push scan and no password panel lock, so it scans to the computer it is plugged into.
- Epson's software differs by platform: Document Capture Pro runs on Windows, Document Capture on Mac, and Document Capture Pro Server is a free download.
- Epson does not publish a weight for the DS-1630, so none is shown here.
- The smallest-footprint claim is Epson's, based on 2015 InfoSource data for the top five best-selling competitive scanner models in EMEA.
Best For / Customer Benefits
Customer Benefits
- One machine covers both jobs: the ADF clears the paper pile and the flatbed takes the passport, the bound report or the torn original.
- Duplex scanning captures both sides of a page in one pass, so two-sided forms do not need to be turned over and fed again.
- Auto crop, skew correction and blank page removal mean scans come out ready to file, without editing each page by hand.
- Searchable PDF and PDF/A output make scanned records easy to find later and suitable for long-term archiving.
