Scansnap IX 500 Color Duplex Desk Scanner For Mac And PC

We have about 15 of these in my building, and about another dozen or so of older models. They are amazing. Very fast with perfect accuracy. We are an insurance company, and the amount of paperwork we deal with is overwhelming. We scan everything in and email paperwork in the matter of seconds. These scanners are very fast and easy to setup and use. You can scan a document faster than you could shred it. The documents scan to pdf and are then easily stored in electronic files. We email the client, and we save a copy here. There are many awesome features. I have already mentioned fast. The REAL test is how long does it take from the moment you decide to scan a document until you get the document into the computer in a form that is legible and compact. This scanner, together with the included software, is faster than any alternative. Once you get it set up, you open it up, put the paper in, push the button, and in seconds your job is complete. the quality is excellent. Single pass ( which means it can dual sided scan at the same time ). One touch scanning is a big plus as well. Another great feature is it can scan everything. From many page document ( 100 or so, maybe more ) extra long documents, like the kind you get when you buy a car, folded, and partially damaged documents, even scans photographs ! ( color quality and pixel quality are pretty great ! )Now I have read the reviews on the software that somes with the scanner, and I just don't understand why some people hate it, it is so easy to use , has more choices than I've had time to test, but ""Scan to folder"" does what we need 95% of the time. You can scan to the Internet. You can scan to DropBox. You can scan to your computer. You can scan to your smartphone.The last thing, which honestly could be the best, is they just work. I support about 30 or so fujitsu scanners, and never have any problems with them. I thing I had 1 misfeed, and 2 jams in all the years we have had them, and they were all on the older models.Once you use this scanner, you will not want another. I have never seem anyone use this scanner and complain. I would recommend it to anyone. Buy one. You'll love it.

King of scanners. Wifi feature doesn't work well but who needs it. Great software/quality compare to the epson scanner our office used.

This scanner is super fast, intuitive, scans to multiple devices and programs with ease, handles tons of documents at once and knows when to scan two side or single sided. If you've ever wanted to go paperless, this is the scanner for you.This is my favorite productivity tool!

I used it to scanner photographs. Worked great! However he exit rollers were sticky left aweful fummy residue on my pictures and got stuck in the scanner. Unable to get it serviced. Unable to find instructions to change the exit rollers. Prior to that happening, this scanner worked great for what I used it for.
