There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
There are only a few small issues I've discovered so far:
- As noted, I had to discover that there is an "excellent" mode for 600dpi rather than the 300dpi "best" mode by trial and error - it is not documented (or at least not in an obvious place).
- As far as I can tell, the unit is limited to 8-bit per color depth even in TIFF mode. Flatbed scanners go to 16-bit per color depth or even higher for TIFF. JPEG is limited to 8-bit, and I did not want the size of TIFF files, so this was not a deal-breaker. It could be a deal-breaker for someone doing serious archiving and wanting the highest color fidelity.
- Wireless scanning fails if you are doing 600dpi "excellent" mode and have more than about 5 pages in the hopper: the scanner is too fast for the data to transfer to your laptop, and instead of pausing scanning, it just fails. I never had problems with wireless scanning at 300dpi "best" mode.
- Other reviews have mention seeing streaks on the scans - particularly thin blue lines. This means that a speck of dirt is stuck to the glass scanner plates. Open the scanner and gently clean the class plates on both sides with a soft cloth and a 50% mixture of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol. Eyeglass cleaner works fine too, but I would not use a window cleaner like Windex that has a lot of other chemicals in it. Fujitsu sells a ScanSnap cleaner called "F1" that the reviews say these work well, but it is crazy expensive - $25 for an ounce. l. You use the same fluid for cleaning the various rollers in the unit. I have found it necessary to clean the unit pretty frequently, especially when scanning dusty old photos. The online documentation recommends cleaning the glass daily and the rollers every 1000 pages. This information should be made added to the the quick set up guide.
I haven’t even fully setup its capabilities yet. It’s truly helped me down my digital document management road and has reduced staff time and expense so probably already paid for itself.
One thing to note is that the duplex sometimes will scan in the back side of a blank page if there is dirt or show through from the front side. Easy fix is to simply click simplex and rescan.
The scanner even auto-orients portrait and landscape pages in documents that have both. In my case, a check portrait page followed by landscape EOB (explanation of benefits) pages within the same set of documents. Super handy.
I can’t recommend this enough.
I mainly use it stand alone without it being attached to the PC. Often times even taking it into the living room to scan in papers while watching TV with the family. It has programmable presets on the built in screen so I can scan different papers into different virtual folders on my Google Drive. This is a huge organizational benefit. Also, it scans to searchable PDFs very quickly and tries to smartly name the files. The filenames are a bit of a mess at time but still allows me to find things easily and I can even rename the files from my phone on the associated app.
Really a life changer for trying to go paperless!

Reviewed in Mexico on June 27, 2020
After research on Brother, Canon and Epson scanners, I decided to buy the newer version Fujitsu Scansnap iX1500.
I will list down what I like about it:-
1. Small footprint.
2. It works over wifi which means I do not need to place it near my router or access point.
3. I works with mobile devices which enables me to scan direct to my home Synology server and store the scanned docs there.
4. Renaming of files is easier this time.
5. I can make changes to settings on the touch panel.
6. The scanning speed seemed faster than the old version.
7. The scanner powers on almost immediately when you lift up the upper lid when on standby
8. Works on latest Mac, Win and iOS version.
