The DS-860 is, like the Canon model, rated at 7,000 scans per day, and the ScanJet 7000 has a 7,500-scan duty cycle. The Canon imageFormula DR-M160II ($739.89 at Amazon UK) (Opens in a new window), yet another Editors' Choice, has only a 60-sheet input tray, but its 7,000-scan rated daily duty cycle is higher than the PDS-6000's (and the PDS-5000's) 6,000 scans. The PDS-6000 (as well as the PDS-5000) comes with a 100-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF), the highest capacity among the scanners we discuss here, whereas both the ScanJet 7000's and the DS-860's ADFs hold 80 sheets. And when you extend the input and output trays on any of them (and most other competing models), they all increase significantly in height and depth. Another Editors' Choice recipient, the Epson WorkForce DS-860 ($739.89 at Amazon UK) (Opens in a new window) (8.1 by 11.8 by 8.7 inches, 8.8 pounds) is a little longer and taller and somewhat lighter, but for the most part they all have similar footprints. Both Brother models measure about the same as the ScanJet 7000 (7.5 by 12.2 by 7.8 inches, 8.4 pounds), though they are about 2 pounds heavier. In fact, on the outside, the only difference between them is the name on the face of the chassis. Weighing 10.3 pounds and measuring 7.2 by 12.4 by 7.3 inches (HWD) with its trays closed, the PDS-6000 ($739.89 at Amazon UK) (Opens in a new window) is exactly the same size and weight as the PDS-5000.

Even so, if raw imaging speed is what you're looking for, the PDS-6000 hardware is among the fastest we've recently seen in this class. Besides, when saving to the more useful searchable PDF format, it fell well behind the ScanJet 7000 and other competitors. In testing, it did manage to scan faster and save to image PDF a little quicker than both the PDS-5000 and ScanJet 7000, but not enough to warrant the PDS-6000's $500 price difference. Speed-wise, it's rated slightly higher than its less expensive sibling and that model's comparably priced competitor, the Editors' Choice HP ScanJet Enterprise Flow 7000 ($739.89 at Amazon UK) (Opens in a new window).
