ScanSnapiX1300 Compact Wireless or USB Double-Sided Color Document, Photo & Receipt Scanner with Auto Document Feeder and Manual Feeder for Mac or PC, Black

This has been a game changer in digitizing all of my documents. The image quality is great, the speed is amazing if you top load but also when you do a single load at the bottom for weirder shaped / folded papers. The bottom feed goes in and back out towards you and is very convenient in scanning all types of documents, including long receipts. The scanner itself is a great compact size to leave on your desk.

I can’t tell you how happy I am with this ScanSnap! Our office is trying to go more paperless, and I have a daily pile of receipts, invoices, shipping documents, and all kinds of random papers to scan. Some are double-sided, some are tiny like a gas receipt, some are regular 8.5"x11", and some are those ridiculously long Lowe’s receipts.Before this, I was so over dealing with my printer’s top feeder constantly jamming or waiting forever for the flatbed scanner to scan one page at a time. It made the whole process feel never-ending. After doing some research, this scanner seemed like the best choice—and wow, it totally delivered!I can drop a stack of papers in, and it scans them all instantly with zero jams. Every. Single. Time. The image quality is next-level! Seriously, y’all, don’t sleep on this scanner—it’s a game changer.Now, full disclosure: it took me about a week to really get the settings down, like making sure each receipt saves as its own file or grouping a few pages together in a big stack. Also, switching between single-sided and double-sided scanning took a minute to get used to. But once you figure it out, it’s a breeze!Oh, and for tiny receipts, I’ve found it’s easiest to feed them through the bottom front feeder just to be safe. Other than that, I couldn’t be happier—this scanner has made my life so much easier. And the best part? It’s so fast that people literally stop and watch it in action!

This is a fantastic scanner! Purchased to scan my Mom's taxes and receipts. Fully expected something to get completely bungled inside the scanner at some point (was scanning about 1 1/2" inches of papers) but to my complete amazement, there was not one jam through the entire process! Plus it scans a lot of pages at one time (I think the most I tried at one time was 20 or 30) but it didn't seem to be struggling and could probably handle more. It automatically adjusted for the small paper receipts when I put them into the scanner. And the software is very intuitive and allows you to easily name the files and save them on the computer. Plus the machine is small and either left on desktop or stored away. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

was missing the part that connects to the wall. Partial connection was sent.

I have been buying, owning & operating tech gadgets since the late 70's and this scanner ranks up there with the best on that list.Just look at these features:a) USB or Wi-Fi optionb) compact size - easy to pull out when needed and then store for later - not a lot of desk spacec) duplex scans of standard paper document in about 2 seconds eachd) duplex scans photos at 600dpi in about 5 seconds eache) auto top feeder (about 10 sheets) or manual front feedWe have another brand's multi-function color laser unit that we bought several years ago (for a good chunk of cash) which has served us well. However when the wife suggested we scan all our old photos (boxes & boxes of loose photos and shelves of photo albums) - I knew I was not going to spend years scanning two or three photos at a time with that thing's flatbed scanner.I read the reviews and most suggest another brand's scanner that is almost twice the price of this one. I decided to take a chance and be a bit more thrifty and it has worked out more than I could have hoped for. Mostly that decision came down to this model's manual front feeder.In one week I have spent about 4 hours with this scanner and have scanned almost 1k photos. The most time-consuming part is taking the photos out of the albums. I just pop them in the front manual feeder and then let the scanner spit it back out where the photo then drops into a bin underneath for disposal - each photo takes about 5 seconds scanning at 600dpi and the quality is good enough (note: the quality really depends on how good the original photo looks. those old 70's polaroid's are not going to scan and then be able to printed at 24"x36" size down the line - let's be realistic - but they look good enough to me on the computer reviewing them afterwards).My only wish is that it could scan at 1200dpi but that would certainly jack up the price. There are a few pictures which we put aside to scan with the multi-function scanner for this reason because those pictures have more sentimental value.I had two occasions this past week needing to scan a full-size paper bill and decided to use this instead of the multi-function. It scans a piece of paper both-sides so fast that it is done before you blink.The software is very basic but it is completely functional. Since this is just a scanner I am glad the software just concerns itself with the simple scan settings and not image manipulation or PDF editing. I have purpose-made software to do that other stuff.
