Digital camera reviews of Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 Sheet-fed Scanner
Digital camera Review: Excellent product
Summary: 5 Stars
We liked this scanner so much, we now have two of them. We are using one for converting our files to paperless by scanning them into a dedicated computer. The second is for email attachment to replace faxing forms. As insurance brokers, we are knee deep in paper and forms. The ease of use, speed and quality is excellent. The cost, compared to others, is amazing. We rejected a similar unit that cost $2,000 two years ago. If you need it, buy this one.Digital camera Review: Excellent value and performance
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the product for about 6 months. Previously I had been frustrated with my H+P flatbed scanner -- lots of document jams, very slow start up and scanning times, and many software crashes. The S510 has been a breeze and has really improved my productivity. I scan a LOT of documents for my paperless medical practice -- anything from single sheets to entire 900 page medical charts. This little machine handles it all. Very fast, double-sided scanning with automatic detection, and quick, intuitive software. I save most of the files to PDF, but I occasionally scan right to my printer or scan to email -- all of these features are great. I haven't tried scanning for editable text yet. Nice compact footprint on my desk. Quiet function. The only thing I can possible say is that the outfeed tray should be a little wider -- pages tend to push each other a bit, occasionally causing a stack to fall onto the floor. Really not a big deal if you're sitting next to the machine to occasionally reach over and adjust the stack. Overall, 5+ stars especially considering the reasonable price.Digital camera Review: Excellent value and performance

I have used this scanner and its software for the last 7 months. It works extremely well, is very fast, has nearly perfect software, and is well worth the cost. The bundled software alone is worth quite a bit. Use the background OCR for scanned documents along with Google Desktop Search or similar and you will be able to find things in seconds most of the time.
I scan every piece of mail, receipt, or paper that I get. I can now realistically go paperless - this is what I've been waiting for.
It would be nice if it had standard driver interfaces or Linux support, but I'm very happy with it otherwise.
Digital camera Review: Expensive, but worth the money
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a pricey bit of equipment compared to a scanner printer combo... so if you scan a page or two a week probably not worth the money.. but if you want scanning to actually work for you, this really is a thing of beauty.
Very fast, easy to use, a real triumph of design... its tiny! I could not be happier. You can check out the demo on the fujistu website.. it actually works at least that well.. If you want a quick, intelligent scanner without a lot of hassles, this is a great option. A cheaper, slower and less user friendly option is a false economy.
Digital camera Review: Fabulous product in a compact package
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the scanner for a week and have nothing but good things to day.
Install - install took a little while - maybe 30 minutes or so, but I followed the instructions (don't plug in scanner until you are done installing) and had no problem at all.
Bundle - it is fabulous that this comes with Adobe Acrobat 8.0. If you don't have it already, that saves you at least $100 on the upgrade (more if you have to purchase the full version). I already had 8.0, but was able to pass the new copy onto another person in my office who didn't have it yet.
Use - It really is simple to use, open, insert page(s), press the green button, that's all.
Converting files - I scanned some comment sheets from excel and used the bundles software to convert to excel, and it worked GREAT!!!
Size - It really is smaller than I thought it would be, it's footprint, even when opened for use, is smaller than a sheet of paper.
I am looking forward to getting rid of lots of paper with the help of this product.
