SImple, Compact and Powerful!! [Posted on 2008-10-09]
This product has been wonderful in helping make my life paper free. Everything I can scan gets scanned. Receipts, deposit slips, bank statements, letters, notes, service agreements, journal entries or anything else you want to put into a cyber notebook can be made easy with this product. Setup takes 10 minutes. Highly recommended!!
Terrific Scanner [Posted on 2008-10-14]
After having tried the Pentax Scanner for the Mac, it had to be returned. I purchased the Fujitsu scanner and it is a world of difference. It does everything a Scanner should do, with no hassle. If you have a Mac computer, and need a scanner, this is the one to buy.
Quality and speed adjustable, Adobe Acrobat Prof incl., small footprint [Posted on 2008-11-02]
This machine is a pretty good solution for Mac users whose desks (and sometimes floor) have gotten lost under towering stacks of paper. Scanning really is more snappy with the automatic paper/document feeder, one-button scanning and Fujitsu's ScanSnap software that allows you to adjust controls for:
- quality (normal=fast, better=faster, best=slow, excellent=slower)
p.s. "best" is not actually the best.
- color mode (auto-detect, color, black and white)
- which sides you scan (duplex, single-sided -- if you choose duplex, it automatically deletes blank pages)
Although scanning with this machine is normally a smooth process, paper jams do happen. The likelihood of a paper jam obviously depends on the documents' paper quality.
Clean and uncreased documents go through most smoothly. With these documents, you can practically walk away worry-free and come back when the scanning is done. For documents that have been stacked tightly together for some time, I do have to watch out for two sheets feeding through at the same time. For documents that tend to stick to each other, I have to smooth out dog ears and creases as best I can, cut off corners that have been stapled (not just use a staple remover), feed singly and/or watch over the scanner to clear any jams that reoccur. Clearing paper jams is extremely simple: use the grey latch (above the "scan" and "power" buttons) to swing open the front part of the machine, and pull out any paper.
Other perks: The inclusion of Adobe Acrobat Professional helps justify the pricetag. The small size (and lack of bulk) makes it easy to carry or store.
Downside: Besides the price, PC users cannot use this model of ScanSnap. I'm not sure why Fujitsu has to have two separate models for Mac vs. PC users.
Great Scanner [Posted on 2008-11-03]
The software included with this makes it really easy to use on my Mac. It's fast. I haven't had any problems with misfeeds. I highly recommend it.
Amazing at the office, had to have one for home! [Posted on 2008-11-16]
I purchased the Fujitsu ScanSnap for my office based on the review from a CPA firm my company contracts. This little guy is AMAZING. So easy to set up, super compact, and scans really fast! It scans double-sided, in color, and scans even the tiniest receipts and pieces of odd-shaped paper, and the software allows you to keep all your scanned files organized. With the scansnap you can get rid of your copier and possibly fax machine (since most faxes go directly to emails anyway, just scan and email the PDF).
I'm now purchasing one to use at home to keep all my receipts organized on my computer (vs having little scraps of paper all over the place) and also to keep a paperless home as much as possible. The scansnap prevents clutter and cuts down on paper use! i love it.
