Fujitsu Totally has the Appliance Concept Right November 23, 2009 Bore Duo (backofyourhead, WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have never reviewed a product on Amazon before, although God knows I have bought enough of them. But this Fujitus ScanSnap S1500M was so good I just had to review it. I use it for business, so I want reliable products that are FAST and anybody can use without special training or setup. This is it. It has ONE BUTTON ! Which is a bright "press me" glowing blue.
You drop in a bunch of paper and press the giant blue button. After a couple of seconds it just starts to scan the pages, efficiently, quickly and quietly. After it is done scanning a window pops up on your screen asking what you want to do with the pages. It has a bunch of options (save to folder, Word, Excel, fax, etc). Then, it has QUALITY screens to set document name and save location etc.
This scanner does everything it says it does. I leave it on fully automatic options. It sizes the pages in the saved document, deletes blank sheets, automatically selects color or black/white, single or double sided, text or drawings, with mixed pages in the hopper. It straightens the pages and gets rid of spurious borders so the documents are clean-clean-clean when you view them.
It handles mixed sizes, like invoices, utility bills, and cash register receipts. It is great for expense reports!
The PDF documents it creates are extremely legible, yet reasonably sized. Smaller documents I can email. I scanned a 166 page book [my daughter's book - she is in France now - no copyrights were harmed in the creation of this email] and sent the 25 MB file via YouSendIt.
This would be perfect for law offices
Ease of Use gets 100 points on a 100-point scale. I never score anything this high on this scale, even new Macs. The Japanese have really figured it out with this product. Finally. Unlike my Japanese fax machine, the 50-page hopper really holds 50 pages and works properly.
The appliance is nicely designed. It folds up cute like a transformer into a little silver bread-box. But when you unfold the front and the back completely it has full size document supports for both the feeder and the output tray. Folded up, it looks rugged. Unfolded for use it looks fragile, but I haven't broken anything yet.
Small size: Elegant!
I love how automatic it is. This is the scanners are supposed to be. The next step will be some magic way to get the PDF page numbers to match the document page numbers. Mac Preview has drag-and-drop document merging and separating, so that is how I build custom documents.
I tried this a very old G4 laptop with an old OS. It was not supposed to work, and it did not. If you have obsolete computers, check the specs. It runs 2 seconds per page on my old G5 iMac, which doesn't even have USB 2.0. Originally, Fujitsu did not have Snow Leopard support, but they supposedly have this fixed, and although I haven't tested that, I suspect they are telling the truth.
Scan speed : A+
BTW - it is nicely packaged. I had to repackage it a few times to move it and it was easy to do that. Bonus points.
Anyway, good work, engineers and production people! And as always, Amazon customer service is flawless.
This is so much better than my all-in-one November 19, 2009 D. Friedman (Denver, CO) I am a real estate broker and my office wants us to go paperless so I need to scan in large stacks of paper and email them for transactions. I was using an all-in-one machine but it was slow, could only accommodate 10 pages at a time, and the quality was not good. My new scanner is fast and the quality is excellent. It can handle all of my pages at once. I wish I had bought it sooner.
Simple To Use & Effective Scanner November 17, 2009 Peter K. Sweeney (New Jersey) This is a simple to set-up and easy to use quality scanner.
I have not yet migrated to Snow Leopard and can not comment on the compatibility issue.
Amazon offered it at the best price and delivered it earlier than expected.
fujitsu doesn't support 3 year old hardware November 14, 2009 V. A. Bermace (ny ny) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My older fujitsu ScanSnap fi-5110EOXM is discontinued and post snow leopard upgrade toast. If you buy a high end scanner realize that any future os upgrade is likely to make it useless in 2 or 3 years. Built to be obsolete in 3 years.
