Title: Great Size, Easy Use, Works for All Documents
Review: This has by far been the best scanner I’ve ever used. Working in accounting, I have to scan documents in various sizes (ranging from fast station receipts to legal-sized contracts), and this scanner can handle it all. The front manual feeder is perfect for those longer receipts or cards, and the automatic top feeder is great for stacks of papers.The scan quality is crisp and clear like if you had typed the document yourself and exported it to a PDF. The ScanSnap software saves me so much time by auto-naming files based on the information scanned (perfect for receipts to differentiate card numbers!). This file naming system is clever and accurate in the data pulled. The only time I have to manually adjust the name of a file is if a pre-selected field doesn’t exist on the document scanned (e.g., including the last 4 digits of the card used in the file name, but a receipt not having that info).I hate cords, so this scanner having wireless connectivity is perfect for my needs. Once it’s connected, it stays connected and there is no delay in the transfer from the scanner to my computer.The value for your money couldn’t be better. I would argue that this smaller scanner is even better than the more expensive version just given the manual front feeder, let alone the price of this unit.I’ve seen some other reviews about this scanner not working or only connecting to a single computer at a time and can confirm it is user error; I share this scanner with a colleague and we can both use it with ease throughout the day.You can’t go wrong with this scanner!!!

Title: Small footprint, beautiful looking, optimum function, right price... totally groovy!
Review: I've had 2 Fujitsu ScanSnap scanners for at least 10 years that have worked great. I needed another small duplex scanner for one of my health care offices to scan insurance cards and driver's licenses.I opted for price and first ordered the Brother DS-740D Duplex Compact Mobile Document Scanner. What a piece of junk, lousy interface and zero support. RETURNED!A buddy of mine with over 40 clinics' secretary recommends Ambir. That's what she has on her desk. So I figure, good enough for them, good enough for me, and order the Ambir Technology PS667 Simplex A6 Card for the sake of price. It's not duplex, and that is a pain in the butt. You have to manually turn the card over and scan twice. I can't live with that. RETURNED!So I bite the bullet and buy the Ambir DS490-A3P ImageScan Pro 490i Duplex ID Card and Document Scanner. It has a nice small footprint, and is decent hardware, but the interface was somewhat wonky, and it only scanned cards. I thought maybe I could do better, so... RETURNED! Thank you and sorry Ambir.Searching further, I discover this affordable, Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300 Compact Wi-Fi Document Scanner in white, that duplex scans cards, and documents, the best of both worlds. I figure, "Okay, let's give it a chance".I receive it. It's a small box. I open it and remove the scanner carefully like it's a baby. It is a baby! It's a small footprint, low profile, beautifully designed, smooth, white rectangular box with nothing sticking out. It's like the monolith sideways in "2001 a Space Oddyssey", smooth and futuristic. It's a baby like Grogu in the Mandalorian, tiny and cute, big on power and character like Yoda!To scan cards, there is a slot on the bottom, with nothing to open. You just place the card partly into the slot, press the scan button, which lights up blue, and zip-zip, in and out. The interface is simple and perfect, and the card is digitized! Once you do one scan, you don't need to press the scan button again. It's awakened and takes cards automatically when introduced into the slot.Finally, there is the greatest surprise ever, the multi-document scanning function. You look at this box and think, "Nah, this is not a full-bore scanner like most ScanSnap scanners. How could a little box like this do it all?" Then you open up the lid and PRESTO! The most wonderful thing happens. The document scanner unfolds like a peacock, or a space telescope being deployed from a space shuttle cargo bay into full array expansion. Then, you put a stack of papers into the feed, and zip-zip, you've got scanned documents. And again, the interface is perfectamundo!!! You close up the box with one gesture, and presto-changeo, it's a cute little box again. A box you respect and love!All I can say is, it tickles me everytime I use this groovy littl Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300 Compact Wi-Fi Document Scanner. Fujitsu, you have outdone yourself. Wow! Let's do lunch sometime and laugh at the affordable incredibleness you've created, together!!! 🙂

Review: Worked perfectly right out of the box. Very small footprint so it doesn't take up a lot of space on your desk. Blazing scan speed, great product.

Title: Works well, quick and easy overall, but avoid staples.
Review: Snap Scan IX300. We bought this to digitize 40+ years of teaching notes, journals, letters and pictures. 30,000+ pages of all thickness and types of paper. I would by it again. It has good resolution. It can scan 2 sided which makes the process easy and quick. Autofeed and manual feed modes work great. The manual feed can take thicker stock and even cardboard backed pictures. There are problems with the auto feeder at times, but usually caused by it being overloaded, pages sticking or the guides not sized to fit the paper width.Software is OK. Review the options to get full benefit. Resolution, single vs. Duplex scans and continuous scan settings are important to remember. Must change the settings when switching from photos to documents etc. I like the after scan edit ability to rotate, re-order or delete pages as needed.I wish this had scratch resistent glass "lenses" The plastic lenses can scratch and the scratch lines show up in prints. That is why I gave it a 4 overall instead of 5. Avoid staples or other things that can scratch when going through. That is what happended with our scanner. A few staples got through and it is no longer suitable for most photos. It leaves lines in the photos. But we did get thousands of photos through before this happened. Still useful for documents and text. Learn how to correctly open and clear a jam, so you don't scratch the lenses when removing a jam.The wifi is OK, but for reliability when scanning more than a few minutes, I used the USB connection.

Review: The ScanSnap iX1300 has been really helpful for my accounting needs. It's easy to use and works well for scanning documents, photos, and receipts. The only downside is that it’s a bit pricey, but the quality and convenience make it worthwhile.

Review: This is a wonderful small but powerful scanner that substantially speeds up the scanning process. Its sheet feeder rapidly processes documents and scans both sides of the paper in one pass. It automatically will detect text and rotate the pages so that they are right side up and even do optical character recognition on them to make searchable PDFs. You can quickly scan photographs with the single sheet slot at the front bottom. So much faster than using a flatbed scanner or even a multifunction printer/scanner with document feeder. This unit is so much faster.

Review: I have been using Fujitsu scanners for years now but needed a new one to help me close up a house with thousands of documents and pictures. This machine is amazing. Such a tiny foot print yet handles large volumes of documents with ease. Printed documents go into the automatic document feeder. Irregular items like photographs and receipts are put in the front. Scanning is so far and the documents returned so efficiently. Creating new files is easy. With any other scanner cataloguing my files and possessions would have taken more than a week. With this machine it was all done in less than a day.
