  • Getting organized with this fast scanner - running virtualized in Linux
I have an entire filing cabinet worth of papers, many of which I will shred, but most of which I will scan and save as PDF and then shred. I'm going totally digital, and I wanted an automatic feed scanner, because I knew a flatbed could never work, given the sheer volume of paper I need to scan. I bought this Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 based on some other reviews I read elsewhere. It was over $400, but it was supposed to be totally amazing, according to what I had read. In my experience, this has been the case. It can do a stack of papers really fast, like a second or two per sheet. It is double sided, and I find the scans to be of good quality for archiving things like college notes, old magazine articles, copies of your home-buying paperwork (but of course, keep anything embossed or with legal signatures in a fire-proof safe). It can scan business cards, and I even scan credit cards so I know what's in my wallet, should it get lost or stolen. I have found that when the scanner jams, it is very easy to just pop open the top, remove the jammed items, and then restart the scan where it left off, which is very easy to do since the software asks you if you want to continue or quit, and whether you want to discard the prior page that was involved in the jam. I also find the bundled organization software very easy to use. I don't use the business card organizer, but the main PDF organizer is really easy. You can see large thumbnails of everything. You can open a PDF and if you want to add another page to that PDF from a different PDF, you can just copy and paste a page and re-save. Bottom line is that it is fast, makes good scans (and you can adjust the quality to go even higher, but I have not done so), and is easy to recover from errors. It also has a small footprint and is dark silver/gray and black inside, so it matches a sleek office look very nicely. Now a bit about the operating environment. I had been looking to see if this scanner was Linux compatible, since that's the OS I run. Apparently it is not Linux compatible [***see update below***]; that is to say, they do not offer Linux drivers, and I do not know of any. [***please see comment number one to my review***] However, I am running it on my Linux system through VirtualBox, as was recommended by another video reviewer I had seen. (VirtualBox is free software that allows you to run any number of operating systems from within another operating system; so when I run Linux, I can run another OS from within that.) I installed Windows 7 as a virtualization, and the ScanSnap drivers installed just fine within my Windows 7 virtual machine. I plugged in the scanner to my Linux machine, and made sure that VirtualBox was configured to allow the Windows 7 machine to see that USB device. Voila! Now I can scan within Windows with the Windows drivers, which also allows me to use the excellent organization software and Adobe Acrobat, but still do my non-scanning work within Linux, my preferred environment, all on one physical computer. Finally, when I want to move my files from the Windows 7 virtualization to my Linux home directory, I just drag them to a network drive that I have set up, which is a Samba share between Linux and Windows 7. (I know this last paragraph might not be helpful or even make sense to a huge number of users, but it's hard to find good compatibility information out there for Linux users, so I hope it is helpful to someone like me who hacks with non-standard configurations.) ***Update 21-Sep-2012: Regarding the useful comments by Chris (see comments to this post), I have tested native functionality in Linux. This scanner is detected directly by OpenSUSE 12.2, the distribution I am currently running. First, I used the application "Scanner" (configure a scanner) and it automatically detected it via USB. Next, I tested both Simple Scan and Skanlite (a KDE application), and both were able to produce high-quality scans that were able to be saved as image files. Skanlite appears to be more feature-rich than Simple Scan, with basic and scanner-specific options. In short, I did not have to do anything fancy to make it work as a basic scanner directly in Linux. (This might vary, depending on Linux distribution or configuration.) Although it is good for a quick scan in Linux, I plan to still use my methods described above for big projects that require hundreds of pages, inserting/deleting pages, pausing for the occasional scanner jam, and so forth; I like the bundled ScanSnap and Acrobat software that runs in Windows, which has been very useful. ... show more

  • So far this scanner is wonderful
Our business has 6 years of quarterly forms piling up, with about 1300 forms per quarter. My job has been to either find a company to scan the documents for us or find a scanner to do the job instead. After getting the bids for companies to scan documents for us--about $3000--I put the task off until I could find a scanner I liked. This was the scanner I liked, after doing all my research. And it hasn't disappointed me, at all! Now, I've just started using it and have now scanned 2 years of forms. What once seemed a daunting task has become incredibly easy and fast. A mountain turned into a mole hill. Setup of this very small scanner was really fast, likewise the software. No messing with the back of my computer, just plug it into a front USB port, unfold the scanner, hit the button and watch it work. It's fast, taking about a little over an hour to scan 1000 pages. Now, that's including the time I spent taking out staples, which slowed the process somewhat. So I can scan close to two years worth of papers in one day, at approximately 1300/quarter. I'll have the entire six years worth completed by next week, and that's very, very good. And cheap. Jammed paper in my HP all in one printer/scanner is a hassle to deal with, but not with this scanner. Although it scans crinkled pages quite well, a few have gotten stuck (or when I missed a staple). I can't believe how easy it is to unjam the scanner: Just push a button to open the scanner from the front, take the page out (the paper immediately releases), close, and go. EASY. Always a must for me. I've been putting in about 50 sheets per scan, as well. I set the scanner to scan only one side of a page, but it will scan both sides. I also set the scanner to continue to scan after each pack of paper has gone through. Otherwise it will end the scan job and you'll need to join 2 separate pdf files. I wanted the choice to continue. With this setting, if you have a jammed page you don't automatically end the scan job while you unjam the machine, you just clear the jam and hit the button to continue. It's so simple. This scanner is incredibly small, which I love. It almost fits anywhere. You don't need to find its own space, you can stick it on your desk, scan what you need, and put it away till next time. Unless, of course, it's going to become a daily part of your office routine. Then it's very easy to make space for. On my file cabinet it's 11" long, 6" deep, and about 6" tall at the tip. So, very compact. The quality of the scans is very good, as well. I did a test print after a scan and it was exactly like the original. Now, what I didn't realize (as we get pdf files that are well over 1000 pages) is that I could only scan 1000 pages into one document. I just started using this so am going to check the preferences to see if this is something I can change. If you have smaller stacks at a time, this fact won't matter. The scanner does scan large file sizes, even when I set the resolution lower. Maybe I haven't found the right setting to ensure much smaller sizes so after I'm done scanning I have to go into the open adobe file and reduce the file size, which reduces by 1/2. My scanned files were way too large at nearly 200 MB per file (again, 1000 pages though). Although windows 7 programs don't perform well on my new windows 7 machine, this scanner has had no problems with compatibility or functionality. This is very good. Windows 7 has proven to be very unstable with most of my other programs so I was a little leery of installing something new to run on it, but it's been fine. At the price I was quoted to scan all of our documents, this scanner could break 1/2 way through the job and I'd get the rest of the job done with a new one, and still be paying 1/3 of what scanning companies wanted to charge me, so I'm very happy with that. Our business partners in another state purchased one of these after I recommended it to them, and they have been doing the same thing, and loving the scanner. I highly recommend it. ... show more
