![]() It's a pretty good buy if you're serious about scanning a lot of paper. So far I've scanned something like 6 years of documents in a couple of hours active time on the scanner. So try not to miss any staples in your documents. It says on the device it's worth mentioning: don't put stapled sheets through the scanner. Other minor annoyances: the scans sometimes come in the wrong way but I think this had to do with the resolution at which you scan your document. The scanner occasionally jams but it's relatively quick to address and you can resume where you left off. The scanner is relatively fast and images both sides of the paper at the same time which saves a lot of time and it can process small stacks (probably 10 sheets) all in one go but you have to be careful of folds which can cause the documents to rotate during the scan and pages that stick together from lack of use. The process of setting that up however was not completely obvious and required a google search. By using the CardMinder Mobile Viewer window, card data scanned with a computer can be checked on another computer. By using the CardMinder Viewer window, card data from other applications can be searched. The software comes with OCR capability so you can configure the scans to be made searchable. CardMinder is used to manage card data on the CardMinder window. The UI of the software leaves a little to be desired but it's really quite powerful. The scanner was relatively easy to set up: just downloaded the software from Fujitsu for my Mac and plugged it in according to instructions. Got this scanner to digitize 10 years worth of documents and I have to say I'm really impressed with it. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned I'd heard from my colleagues that ScanSnaps are really great and an item I can't do without, and they are right. I debated whether to get the smaller version of this, which I would be able to fit in a bag on a plane, and then later get the desktop version, which would handle much bigger jobs without as much supervision, but chose to go with this middle-of-the-road scanner first and then decide which of the other needs would be my greater need! However, I purchased a semi-hard case for this one, and for right now, this one will generally serve all of my needs. It worked great and scanned them all into one document without a problem. I put in 10 pages, waited til it had one or two pages left to scan, then added more pages. One of the first items I scanned was 30+ pages long. Love that it determines whether there is color on the page and that you can make the PDFs searchable! It’s twice as fast and more flexible than the competition such as Plustek’s MobileOffice S400, so the decision comes down to price: a basic mobile scanner can be had for less than £100 inc VAT, but if you want more in the way of speed and features, the ScanSnap S1100 justifies the premium.This has really great scanning quality, especially for the short time it takes to run the paper through. The CardMinder software picked up most of the pertinent info on a range of test cards, and let us edit it all to fix a few errors.Īll in all, it’s a flexible little travel companion, and it’s around £50 cheaper than the next model up in Fujitsu’s range, which doesn’t offer cloud scanning. And it does a great job of figuring out paper sizes, recognising A5 sheets and business cards even when not aligned with an edge. One A4 page takes ten seconds to scan and process, or if you feed multiple pages in one scan it can manage up to eight per minute. The S1100 is the most compact in Fujitsu’s range, hence its manual double-sided scanning, and it communicates and draws power via a single USB connection. You can do the same with multipage documents too just keep feeding the pages in and click finish to automatically compile them into one multipage PDF. Scanning a two-sided document is idiot-proof: as a page is fed through the scanner, it loops back to land in front of the input tray ready to be fed in again the software compensates for the orientation. In practice, all of this barely adds to the core scanning procedure.
