Features: scan snap...it really is a snap! [Posted on 2008-10-11]
I rarely if EVER write an evualution of a product since I am quite jaded
about reviews since they are used to try to sell more of the same product to the public.
BUT, I must confess that this scan snap is a PURE JOY to use. I do a lot of bankruptcy work and we are required to do PDF documents as required by
the new bankruptcy law. I have have other scanners but without spending a
ton of money or pledging your first born, I could not afford it so I went
to the court house to scan some required docs. I needed a scanner in a
bad way and I needed a reliable, fast and cheap scanner. I went via
google and found scanner and saw this scan snap and it look just like what I needed. I sent for it (fast shipping) and the set up was easy and
the method to scan was 1-2-3...even a GEICO caveman could do this...without the club! I am not computer literate and hate reading the
technical literature they sent out (I could write better copy for these
electronic gizmos) but the scan snap was easy to read and was a breeze to
do. I had a minor problem and had to call their free technical support since my computer did not want to share its USB with snap. I simply plugged it in another usb port and bingo...not a problem. Tech support was great. I would without ANY RESERVATION buy another snap and recommend it to someone who is on the go or needs a reliable office scanner for daily use and that is fast and produces sharp clear PDF files. You can call me at 419-249-2703 for further discussions if you wish. great product...good price. It takes up almost no space on your desk.
Great scanner [Posted on 2008-10-12]
It's fast. Accurate. Small form. The only "complaint" I have about it is that when you put papers in it, it doesn't feel like they're in there securely. It's not like they fit in a slot (like a printer might). Other than that though, great product. Would definitely buy again.
This thing rocks! [Posted on 2008-10-14]
I am the first to admit that I am horrible when it comes to paper management and physical item organization. Electronic organization is anothor thing.
This beautiful piece of technology is slowly but surely liberating me from the paralyzing piles of paper stacked here and there.
This scanner is unbelievably quick. Think of it like sending a document through a fax machine memory. But it scans both sides. Got a two page document? Put the blank sides facing each other and voila! It's scanned!
If something goes in crooked as it is scanning, no worries. The unit self corrects the scanned image to one that is perfectly straight.
Our health care statements come in double sided: one side is portrait & one is landscape. Lo and behold it knows which orientation each page is and saves it that way in the pdf file.
The filing software that comes with it is easy to use.
If I had one design I would like to change on it is the side height on the paper tray feeder but who cares as it straightens out anything that goes in crooked!
I demonstrated this to a couple of co-workers and they have already ordered ones for themselves! As I showed them the features I kept hearing, "No way. No way." :-)
Way to go Fujitsu! Brilliant, brilliant little machine!
First one DoA, but totally happy nojw [Posted on 2008-10-24]
The original scanner shipped with a one of the duplex sides all messed up, so I e-mailed Amazon, got an RMA and a new device, dropped the broken one into the box the new one came in, printed out the shipping label and send it back, and the new one was everything I could hope for.
In my opinion, this is an amazing product for people on the road who get "hard copies" of documents and documentation and want to digitize them, and it's a wonderful full duplex scanner for anyone who wants to digitize old medical records, etc.
perfect for archiving all those bank statements [Posted on 2008-11-07]
easy to set up.
Great to archive bank statement or pay slips.
Organize them in their correct order, feed them to the scanner in batches of 10 or so (i wish it would accept larger amount of paper at once) and it will scan it on both sides very quickly.
You can choose to get one pdf per page or 2 pages or one pdf for all pages, including more that 10 pages.
When the computer is idle it will ocr the pages so you can search the text.
The data is archived in directories so it's easy to organize and backup on a mozy account for example.
you can then thrash all the paper and get rid of the huge filing cabinets.
Love it.
