We are CPA firm and have 3 Savin Scanner/Copier network machines that cost tens of thousands. I have the Fujitsu in my office, takes up hardly any real estate and is just as capable as our Savin’s and to some degree, more capable. It automatically recognizes and scans in color, different scan sizes and both sides at the same time, when applicable. The quality is great. Only jammed once. If I have more than 30 pages to do I will use the Savin’s.

I do not use the OCR that came with it, I use Adobe 9 professional and that allows all the pdf files to be searchable.

I owned the predecessor to this scanner and I just loved it. Unfortunately my office was burglarized and so I had to replace the scanner. This model was out so I bought it, and it is as good as ever. I lover the automatic duplex scanning, the auto color detection and the great software (Adobe Acrobat 9) that comes with it.

I use the scanner all the time in my law practice, and just bought another one. When meeting with a client, often I just stick their papers in the scanner on my desk and before my client leaves I already have copies of everything. We no longer use fax machines….we just scan the documents to be faxed and then use Internet faxing. Easy, no fax machine to upkeep, and I always have copies of my faxes.

I cannot say enough about this scanner. I just love it. It is a solid piece of technology and is worth every penny.

I am a Realtor and scan alot of paperwork. Another Realtor at my office had a Fujitsu Scanner and invited me to use it. I did and was hooked. It is the most efficient, fastest scanner I have ever used. I bought one for my home office. It is such a time saver. So simple to install and use. It’s compact size makes if easy if you wanted to travel with it, especially going by automobile. I can’t tell you how much effort and time it saves me. I scan my contract paperwork, attach to an e-mail and send to my customers and fellow Realtors. I don’t like the scanners that are in with copiers and faxes (sooo slow). You can scan a stack of paperwork in seconds. What a great product!

This is not a technical review, but a practical one. I have a two person office and we bought this scanner instead of replacing our dying copy machine. What a Godsend! This scanner will take us to another level in terms of the paperless office. Just put it in the scanner, then shove it in the trash. No more stacks of paper lying around. It takes up about as much space as a telephone.

This scanner is so awesome, I just ordered one for my desk too. We use it as much as we used our old copy machine, at least 10 times a day. It’s fantastic!!! Easy to set up, easy to use, easy to adjust, easy, easy, easy, good, good, good!

I’m a lawyer and I have been, for all intents and purposes, paperless for about 10 years. During that time I have purchased and utilized a wide variety of scanners including many different models from Hewlett-Packard, Visioneer and several others. This Fujitsu scanner, by far and away, is the best. It is very fast but most importantly the software works efficiently. My goal is to turn paper into searchable PDF files and then save those on my hard drive in a logical fashion for easy indexing by any one of several desktop search engines. This scanner together with its software does that job better than any other scanner I have ever used. This scanner would be worth twice the price.

I purchased this scanner after reading reviews on Amazon to replace a Neat Desk scanner piece of junk I had first purchased. The Neat Desk scanner purchase (purchased via Pricegrabber) ended up costing me $100 after restocking and round-trip shipping. The Fujitsu has worked like a champ. My only complaint is the additional step when scanning: I have to scan and save the .pdf file and then tie that saved file to the entry in Quicken. I wish I could scan directly to Quicken, but Fujitsu said upfront it is not a TWAIN device. I love the way it folds up to a small desktop footprint and then is recognized by WinXP Pro as soon as you open the top lid. Scanning has been lightning fast and there have been no jams. This scanner is really helping me get rid of the piles of little paper receipts we kept for purchases, warranties, etc. This, plus buying QuickBooks Pro 2010 is going to help me reach my goal of organizing all of our paperwork for our rental properties in 2010. Don’t buy any NeatCo product. I would buy this Fujitsu ScanSnap again.

I don’t know how I ever survived without this prodcut. It’s amazing. Fast and accurate. My wife is tired of me saying, you have to come see this.

By M. Armstrong

Yep, I’m in the market for another one because the 1st was stolen! It scans quite well, it’s a little bit sexier than the S510, it comes with acrobat 9, and it’s really just the worthy older brother to the S510. Kudos to Fujitsu.

Was using a multifunction scanner and wasn’t getting very good quality. This Scanner performs well and meets all my expectations. An excellent choice for a small office looking to go paperless.

I accidentally found this product by studying the Amazon location for a competitor’s product. I noticed that other people who had visited the site I was at had bought this Fujitsu scanner instead and had rated it highly, so I checked it out. Am I ever glad I did. After reading a number of reviews, I decided to purchase it. I liked it so well, that within a few days, I also bought the Apple version for my wife.

I have been wishing for years that I had the capability to create a pdf file from an original document and email it to someone else. Other people I knew who had this capability obtained it via high-end copiers that cost at least hundreds of dollars per month to rent. I did not want it that badly, so made copies of such documents and then transmitted them through the regular mail.

The capability I obtained with this product is infinitely better than mailing xerox copies.

Also, it allows me to do several things using the included full version of Acrobat 9 software that are really useful. For example, I recently made multiple pdf files of different items (an insurance application, some data that had to be sent in with it, and a check for the first month’s premium), and then combined them into a single new pdf file. For another example, I can take many other types of files (an Excel file, for instance) and turn them into pdf files with a single command. This makes it possible to, for example, email an Excel spreadsheet to someone who would not be able to open it, because they do not have the Excel program on their computer. Virtually everyone has the capability to open a pdf file.
