ScanSnap iX1600 Wireless or USB High-Speed Cloud Enabled Document, Photo & Receipt Scanner with Large Touchscreen and Auto Document Feeder for Mac or PC, 17 watts, Black

I was really surprised at all the high praise this machine got, so I ordered it. No disappointment here! It was up and running so fast and easily connected via Bluetooth! Amazingly excellent instructions! Incredibly intuitive! Works like a charm! I haven't been this happy with a new electronic device for 30 years! Both mechanically and electronically, works the way it should! Scans receipts, documents and photos equally well. Color quality of photos way better than my previous scanner. When done, it folds up into a tiny footprint on your desk. Wow! WOW! WOW!!!

Amazing - totally worth it as a dedicated scanner. Design is well thought out and smart! Puts other scanners to shame. Super fast (~ 40 pages per min), flawless, duplex, simplex, auto-crops, right sizes images, OCR, can modify pages after scanning (rotate, delete pages). Plus you can make short work of your piles of photos from the 80s!! (Scan to your phone) — use manual mode for that. Also you can say goodbye to paper! (Scan in all your mail as it arrives then throw away or shred). Use the ScanSnap local app but also has cloud scanning and email scanning. Don’t even consider the lower tier scan snaps — the $400 is worth it. And buy the special Fujitsu drum cleaner.

My job requires me to scan documents from wherever I am. The reason I bought this was because it is the first one I have found that scans professionally - TO MY PHONE. I used to have to carry a laptop with me. I love now being able to travel with less equipment. It’s a little tricky setting up as it has its own WiFi and there are moments I am not sure if I am doing it correctly, but all I can say is hang in there because it is worth it. The quality of the scans are superb and I love that it is so fast. When I scan ID, it will do both sides at the same time. My clients love it because they get their documents right away. The only thing I do notice is that after very little use, sometimes I go to scan and get a message that reads “glass is dirty” and that will prevent any scanning from occurring until it’s clean. I keep it in a case designed for this scanner between use so not sure how it is so sensitive. But now I just make sure I always have the proper cleaner sheet in hand.

I bought a Fujitsu Scansnap S510 in 2007, and that wonderful scanner served me well for about 17 years, yes ladies and gentlemen ! Of course I need to be honest, there was a bit of a hiccup a few years after buying it, they stopped releasing new versions of the software and I suddenly couldn't use my scanner anymore when I upgraded my Windows (to version 8, 9, or 10, I don't remember). I found a solution though, I bought a piece of software that can use every scanner in the world, so I was able to continue using my Scansnap S510 for many years. Like I said, 17 years of loyal services in total ! And the scan quality was absolutely perfect for me, even nowadays. To my big surprise it finally died now, in April 2024. There are little rubber things designed to pull the paper, they ended up being melted somehow. I guess rubber is not eternal after all. I imagine I could have attempted to replace these parts, but I did not want to bother and just bought the new iX1600. New Scansnap, same experience. I am still absolutely delighted. The software improved a lot I would say, I prefer it over the 2007 version. The scanner is otherwise still the same great scanner it always was. It is fast, the quality of the scans is amazing, the software is easy and intuitive. It eats and sorts piles of papers quickly without causing trouble or jamming, it is an absolute pleasure to scan with this device. It has amazing extra bells and whistles, like wireless connection, usability from a mobile device, upload scans to the cloud etc. Not really necessary in my opinion, I scan on my PC and the folder is already synchronized with my Cloud solution, but the options are there and they work well. Hopefully it will also last another 17 years ! ;-)

I needed to buy a scanner that could be independently operated by my aging parents. It needed to work correctly and flawlessly and require only pushing button. The task is the scanning of my father's life's work, carefully preserved in filing cabinets that take up too much space and cost too much to store. It will take months to do this. It means most of the work will need to be done independently by them. I researched scanners and watched reviews for months. I was pretty set on a Canon until I decided that the #1 scanner might be worth the extra coin. It was imperative that it be easy to use. In all fairness, I don't have the Canon to compare it to. I was able to set this scanner up in person and practice with my parents before leaving them alone with it. I was able to easily set it up to scan to OCR and a Pdf document simultaneously (one of the project requirements) it scans both sides at the same time but omits any blank pages. My favorite feature is it can name the file based on the title on the first page. Again, for our project, this was exactly what was needed. Naming files and saving them in the proper location was a challenge that needed to be avoided. I set up a few profiles and removed the ones that were not needed. For me, the software was intuitive and easy to use and for my parents, largely unnecessary to interact with once I'd set things up properly. I downloaded the ABBEY OCR software and was delightes with how perfectly it worked. Notes in the margins were preserved as a graphic object in Microsoft Word. The scan captured and changed the font size. There were several passages of books that had been xeroxed so it involved two pages side by side. The scanner handled this like a pro and everything remained formatted correctly. The wireless and USB connection both worked well, once it's set up its very plug and play. There were a couple of minor paper jams but they were also easy enough to clear. I am impressed by the warranty and live support, but we have not needed either yet. What surprised me most is my printer has a scanner at home and I never thought I needed anything else. I am now seriously considering getting one myself seeing how I could easily make all the paper in my house disappear. I can set up profiles for receipts, bills, reports, personal memorabilia and this scanner could send it to the folders of my choice, this is extenemely appealing to me. I have to add that the footprint of this scanner is minimal, not much bigger than a work boot when it's folded up. I spent an extra $100 to get this model, but if it means my parents don't have trouble using it, it is worth every single cent.

This thing is an absolute beast. I've only owned it for a few days and have already scanned 1000's of documents. It handles everything I throw at it - thin notebook paper, old water-damaged paper, wrinkled, creased, etc. I've only had one jam and it was easily corrected. You just push a button and the whole mechanism opens up. You remove the page, close the mechanism, and continue the job seamlessly - easy peasy. I have also used it to scan 100's of old photos. Keep in mind the resolution maxes out at 600x600 pixels. But for scanning a lot of photos quickly and at decent quality, I have had no issues. The interface is a breeze, and you can customize each tab to go to a software or function of your choice. The software is convenient to use - not a full-blown pdf editor, but it does basic pre-editing functions like rotating pages, adding pages from another file, splitting, etc. all very intuitively. Cons: The ScanSnap Home software and its various background processes use a LOT of RAM, even while the software is closed. The photo shows it using at least 814 MB of RAM after starting the OS without opening the software or using the scanner. This should be optimized if possible. The scanner came with a license for an old version of Kofax PowerPDF. While the software is great, new purchases should come with a license for an up-to-date version. There is no TWAIN driver provided, so the scanner is not recognized by a PC or over a network as a scanner and you have to use the ScanSnap software. This is a HUGE let-down and an overall impediment to the functionality of the scanner. There is no ethernet port for those who would like to use the scanner over a wired network instead of wifi.

Amazing scanner; fast, doesn't jam as always with these kinds of products, the software is an afterthought but it's really not the worst of them all either. Worth it for the hardware

Bought this ix1600 to replace an extremely durable and speedy S1500 which was still working great 10 years after purchase but that was no longer officially supported under Windows 11. While initially I had hestitated to spend the money to replace something that wasn't broken, everything about this new version is better and well worth the price. It's even faster, and the wireless support and the ability to custom configure buttons on the LCD to do what you want really means you can place this thing anywhere and can almost eliminate the need to do any manual actions on the computer to organize the documents post scanning. The soft buttons on the LCD can be configured to send documents to specific destinations, ie cloud, printer, local destinations, or to trigger various applications post-scan. I'm using the included OCR software and a Windows shell script to automatically move scanned docs to locations on my network based on keywords or account numbers found within the OCR'd content, really very slick and was pretty easy to do. Construction seems similar so if this remains as reliable as the previous generation this will be a no brainer purchase. Note, my previous version S1500 came with a full / permanent license for Adobe Acrobat X while the newer models offer that as an optional/subscription based add-in. I took the risk and got the version with no subscription and have no regrets, the included OCR software works fine and results in searchable PDFs..

Es mi primer escáner de esta marca, eh usado otros de la misma marca pero ya modelos pasados, pero su versatilidad en su programa para escanear en muy sencillo de aprender, anteriormente escaneaba con mi impresora, gran cambio con este equipo, ahorras mucho tiempo.

Ordered from Amazon AU - came with US power plug.... ??

With its rapid scanning capabilities, I can breeze through stacks of documents in no time, significantly increasing my productivity.

The real deal! I was going to buy the ix1500 then I noticed they released this new model. I was skeptic all about how much faster it was but it really was! Even with over wifi. Really good buy.

Simplemente lo mejor! Al mejor precio.
