It can scan 25 pages per minute or 46 images per minute in colour, duplex mode and deliver high resolution (flatbed, 1200 x 1200 dpi optical resolution), thanks to Plustek’s advanced CIS sensor technology.

The printer can also scan documents that are up to 2.1 mm thick, including driving licenses, credit/debit cards and photo identity cards amongst others.

SmartOffice PL2546 is a smart product that will be highly accepted – especially in the service industry like hospitality, education, BFSI etc. Moreover, it is lightweight and has a small footprint which makes it ideal for offices already struggling for space.”

Further, it also comes bundled with Hotcard BizCard Finder 2.5 utility software, enabling to activate the business card (visiting card) recognition function.
