Summary: flexibility plus
Comment: Previously used a Dell 3115 flat scanner that was always a problem..The fujitsu installed easily on my iMac and was terrific to scan all of my travel related documents to California and China...Having everything on my Airbook rather than large paper files in my briefcase is the way to go..feeder works well although it can feed crooked every once in a while..thicker documents feed well too...love this pdf performer!

Summary: Awesome for Mac
Comment: I have owned at least a dozen scanners over 20 years including all-in-ones, flatbed, dedicated film, etc... This is far and away the best that I have used. Paper jams only if you overload it. Even though the feeder is relatively small it is easy to keep loading it as sheets go through. I have put in stacks of paper with everything from legal to 3x4 photos in the same batch without a problem (make sure the option to handle random paper sizes is on). I can also load in 20 pictures and scan them strait into iPhoto in under 2 minutes. Fujitsu sells replacement pick-up pads and rollers to keep the feeder working perfectly, you need to replace these every year or so for about $30 but to keep this this running as well as it does it's a terrific deal.

Summary: Since when has a scanner put a smile on your face?
Comment: Recently I was looking at a jumbled pile of paid bills and other paper detritus around the house and trembled in fear at the thought of digging through everything and organizing it all into file folders. The stacks of paper. The folder tabs. The stickers. The filing boxes. The whole reason my pile 'o' crap was sitting there was precisely because I didn't want to deal with it -- though I knew I needed to keep the files just in case.
I'd heard of people digitizing everything and they sounded happy. And I'm a gadget kind of guy. So I figured, "let's do this thing" and I bought this scanner. I own a really nice Canon flatbed scanner, but using that for scanning bills or other documents is way, way too cumbersome. I've also owned one of the little packable receipt scanners, but they only scan one side at a time and were slow and made poor quality scans. But I'd heard good things about the Fujitsu ScanSnap line. Very good things.
What a great little product! It does exactly what it's supposed to do -- scan both sides of documents really fast and store them on your computer however you like. The included OCR software will even embed the (recognizable) text into the PDF document itself. Combine that with Mac OS X's "Spotlight" system-wide search and you can find the tiniest bit of text in any of the documents you scan -- now and anytime in the future. Amazing.
This is NOT a photo scanner. Yes, you CAN scan photos with it, but that's not the purpose -- the scan quality is not great for that. But for document capture and storage, nothing in my experience beats it (for an average consumer).
The only thing I don't like is the high price. But in the end, I'm going to wipe out my paper files and -- so long as I do off-site backups -- I'll still have all the documents around for as long as I want or need.
Okay, one more minor gripe: I'd prefer to have one "master" scanning application that does all the scanning, OCR and storage work in a single interface, rather than the collection of 4 bundled applications. But they do work together pretty well, so it's okay. Just feels a little bloated on the software side.
The upshot is that I'm now enjoying scanning my documents. I'm especially geeked to do the document shredding afterwards! I've never had a computer peripheral that made me smile like this, with the possible exception of the iPhone.
Great stuff. If you're into scanning your docs, this is the scanner to get, even with the high price.

Summary: Love this scanner
Comment: I just love this scanner, I have had several and this one is so easy to work I am not very tech-savy, but it doesn't matter with this scanner

Summary: excellent scanner
Comment: After having this for one week, I've scanned all my documents into pdf. With the help of the management software "yep" we've gotten rid of all our boxes of files. Well worth the investment. From binders of double sided settlement paperwork to stacks of receipts, this scanner handles them all. Worth every penny!
