Title: Surprisingly Good!
Review: After reading reviews about this scanner (ScanSnap iX1600 Wireless) I pulled the trigger - it came and after a short setup (including a pretty large app download, 1.4G) I am very pleased with it.I'm scanning photos and some documents - This ScanSnap iX1600 is doing great. It's quick - open the top and it's ready to go under a minute. Clear user interface on the scanner, and paper handling is very good. I have everything from 2x3 up to almost full page photos, and even when they're all in a stack they scan correctly.One of the best features is duplex scanning - you can scan the front and back of a page at the same time! Easy to set up as default, and also easy to choose it on the fly if you've got no-duplex as the default. Scanning time is very quick too - with options for auto-correct for red-eye, and color enhance.The thing that impresses me the most is that it does what its supposed to do and does it quickly, easily, quietly and without any tech headache or extended setup.I'm using this with a new PC-based computer with Win11, AMD Ryzen 9 processor and 32G RAM. It also worked fine with another PC with a N100 processor (slow) and 8G RAM. Very happy, I'd highly recommend this scanner for photos and docs. It won't scan slides or negatives but photos are great!

Title: Easy to setup, use
Review: I had been using an inkjet printer (with dried out ink pods) to do most my scanning, but that was a lot of space, the paper feeder didn't work well, it was slow, etc. It also only scanned to the one connected computer.I haven't used the iX1600 a lot yet, but it did what I hoped for and expected. It was quick to set up and scans incredibly quickly. My wife and I set up a number of quick profiles for ease of use - one each that saves to our individual computers and another that saves to our shared network archive drive.The scans are high quality and the software install was fairly easy too, other than a little guessing for part of it (it assumes your computer to be on wifi, not attached to a LAN with a wifi access point - but it still works, just have to skip through some of the steps in a way not explained well).The PDF software included with it (Kofax) is a generation out of date from the current released version, but that didn't matter to me and I haven't explored it much.

Title: Works well with Windows AND Linux
Review: I purchased the iX1600 to replace my faithful S500 scanner that lasted for 14+ years until it finally died. The new scanner is certainly much faster and it does seem easier to use after setting up the appropriate profiles. (I'm using the new ScanSnap Home software rather than the ScanSnap Manager program as provided with the S500.) I have the iX1600 directly connected via a USB cable to EITHER a Windows 10 OR a Linux Mint system. Mainly for security reasons I haven't tried connecting the scanner to WiFi or sending scanned documents to the Cloud, so I can't comment on those features.I mainly scan B&W financial documents, using the "Normal" resolution setting (=300dpi) along with automatic rotation. The resulting files are acceptably small and are easy to read. The OCR implementation seems to work well. I haven't used the new scanner enough to see if paper jamming is a problem, but based on the S500 I'm hoping that will not be a problem.By using SANE drivers I was able to use the old S500 scanner with my Linux Mint system. I was hoping that the iX1600 could also be used under Linux but there is problem because the Stable version of the SANE Repository contains a backend driver for the iX1500 scanner but NOT for the iX1600! However, the Development branch of the SANE Repository DOES provide support for the iX1600. I used the following commands to add that Repository:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sane-project/sane-gitsudo apt-get updateIn my case it was necessary to REMOVE references to the Stable version of the SANE Repository.Once the sane-git version of the Repository had been installed it was possible to perform scans using the simple-scan program provided with most Linux distributions. Unfortunately, I found that simple-scan produces overly large PDF files when scanning B&W documents. As an alternative, I found that the following workflow creates much smaller files:1) Use gscan2pdf to perform the initial scan. Because of some problems with automatic rotation (your mileage may vary) I "hard coded" the required amount of rotation as appropriate (270 degrees when scanning landscape-format documents). I'm currently scanning in lineart format and duplex mode at 150dpi but may raise that to 300dpi to be consistent with ScanSnap Home on Windows. I'm not using any of the OCR or other features available in gscan2pdf. BTW the "name" of the iX1600 when given to gscan2pdf is "fujitsu:ScanScap ix1600:127088".2) Use ocrmypdf to deskew the scanned pdf file and perform the OCR function. I'm not using any other options that are available with ocrmypdf.To make the workflow easier I suggest that the gscan2pdf and ocrmypdf programs be run via a script. I'm using a small Python program, but I'm sure there are many other options!I hope that the above comments on using the iX1600 under Linux prove useful and will help folks avoid some to the problems that I encountered!*** UPDATE - USING WITH UBUNTU-BASED DISTRIBUTIONS ***The approach I described above worked with the latest Linux MINT distribution, but I had problems getting the scanner to be recognized when testing it with ZORIN 16.0 and UBUNTU 20.04. The problem seemed to revolve around removing the STABLE version of Sane before installing the GIT (Development version). Here is the solution that finally worked:First, Uninstall the sane-git repository if previously installed. This is most easily done through the Software & Updates GUI app.Next, issue the following commands from a terminal:sudo apt remove ippusbxdsudo add-apt-repository ppa:sane-project/sane-gitsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install libsane(If asked, allow the configuration file for the iX1600 scanner to be updated.)Finally, reboot your system and run the simple-scan program to verify that the iX1600 scanner is now (hopefully) found!Hope this helps - it took me quite awhile to determine the appropriate steps needed to get the iX1600 recognized!

Title: Super easy to use, scans documents quickly
Review: This scanner is efficient and quick when scanning documents. It rarely jams, even when scanning up to 20 documents at a time. It is easy to download the software and set up on the computer. I've only scanned documents (i.e. papers), but I bet it would work well with photos or other media.I originally purchased this for work, but it is so efficient and useful, that I purchased another one to use at home.The quality of the documents is clear and easy to read. You have multiple options on where to store the files. I've had it for over six month and I use it every day. I do close the lid when it's not in use to keep the dust out. The unit does alert you when the glass and interior are dirty.I would highly recommend this scanner.

Review: Scanner is simple enough and set-up was also easy with or without cable. I use a Mac and had to buy the usc-c to usb-b cable with is not common. It only comes with usb -A to usb-B cable.Other than that, it's rare to find an item that is simple to set-up. It scans, it does it well, and no hassles so far. Price is on the high end for sure though.

Reviewer: Llego antes de la fecha indicada y la instalación no fue complicada, fácil de usar y un excelente desempeño, muy buena compra 👍🏼

Review: This scanner is really excellent, especially the speed helps a lot! I scanned several thousands of pages within a really short time, it would have been a nightmare had it not been that fast. The document feeder is really reliable and usually way better at separating the pages to scan them individually than I can normally separate them with my fingers. For those few times that it doesn't work it sends an error message soon and stops the scan, getting them out of the feeder and re-scanning them is no issue at all.I scanned a few hundred photos as well and it was pure joy to see how well it handled those too.The scan results are excellent too. The variety in settings regarding the quality leaves very little to be desired.The little screen helps a lot, you don't have to initiate the scan from the computer all the time, it helps tremendously to save time and effort.The only downside that I have yet discovered is that I wasn't able to find out how scan multiple pages in one go and save them as separate files. I could only do that by splitting the scanned pdf file using a pdf software.The scanner comes with a serial number for the PDF software "Kofax Power PDF Standard" but I haven't tried that since I use Adobe Acrobat professional for business reasons, but it's good to know that the scanner does have an alternative to Adobe.I can't recommend that scanner enough, am really glad I bought it!
