Watch how the Plustek X Cube 1000 captures a guest’s identification card as part of the Guest Ban scanning workflow.
Fully Integrated With Guest Ban
When connected to Guest Ban, the X Cube 1000 can capture the guest’s identification details and reduce repetitive manual entry during check in.
Guest Ban can use the captured information to:
- Automatically populate guest information
- Transfer guest details into supported property management systems
- Check the guest against the property’s Do Not Rent list
- Display enabled Guest Ban alerts
- Capture visible, infrared and UV ID images
- Store ID evidence according to the property’s plan and retention settings
- Support incident, fraud and chargeback reviews
Simple Automatic ID Scanning
The Plustek SecureScan X Cube 1000 uses an automatic detection sensor, so employees do not need to press a scanner button to begin capturing the card.
- Place the driver license or identification card flat on the scanning surface.
- The X Cube automatically detects the card and captures the selected images.
- Guest Ban reads the available identity fields and barcode data.
- If both sides are required, turn the card over and scan the second side.
- Review the guest information and any enabled Guest Ban alerts.
- Transfer the captured information into the supported hotel system.
Visible, Infrared and UV Imaging
The X Cube 1000 uses three light sources to capture document information and security details that may not be equally visible under normal front desk lighting.
Produces standard color images used for data capture, visual review and documentation.
Can reveal document elements that appear differently outside the normal visible spectrum.
Can expose UV responsive watermarks and security features incorporated into many government issued identification cards.
When UV capture is enabled through Guest Ban, authorized employees can review the UV image for missing, unusual or inconsistent security patterns.
Fast Barcode and Guest Data Capture
Guest Ban can use the available barcode and document information captured by the scanner to reduce manual typing and improve registration accuracy.
Guest information that may be populated:
- Guest name
- Date of birth
- Address
- Driver license or ID number
- Issuing state
- Expiration date
Faster and more accurate data capture creates a more consistent check in process and allows front desk employees to focus more attention on the guest.

Measuring approximately 4.23 inches wide, 4.23 inches deep and 3.31 inches high, the X Cube 1000 fits comfortably on most hotel front desks. It weighs approximately 0.93 pounds and receives power through its USB connection.
Its compact design, automatic card detection and straightforward operation make it suitable for front desks, self service kiosks, multi property deployments and high volume guest environments.
