What our customer's say!

"Great product", I love it. It works better than I thought it would. It even lets you know if "it" thinks it didn't get a good scan like when the paper gets jammed or croocked. It does take a long time for the software to install even on a new PC with Vista. Not sure why that is but give yourself time. But this scanner really works.

"Best scanner for the price; great for home-based business!", The Fujitsu Scansnap S300 is literally the THIRD scanner that I had purchased for my home-based business in 2008, and I am very happy that I do not have to purchase a fourth one!

Finally, a small scanner that is more powerful than ones that I've paid $150.00 more for and didn't even work well for me (such as the Visioneer and Ambir brands).

This Fujitsu accomplishes what I need to do in a very efficient manner without bogging down my 7-year-old Gateway computer with gigabytes of software I don't need (which is the major problem for me with Visioneer scanners).

After just 30 minutes of setting up my Fujitsu the way I wanted it (with a little help from customer support), I was off to the races and scanning dozens of documents for my business.

I'll admit that it doesn't do a great job with grocery receipts, but if I cut them up into smaller sizes, they usually scan just fine.

I've had very few jams (the cleaner and less crinkled the document, obviously, the better the scanner will function).

Copying double-sided documents is a cinch. I just click on that feature via the software for my double-sided documents and they are copied front-and-back with just ONE PASS through the scanner; pretty amazing!

I'm very happy with my scanner, even several months after purchase and highly recommend it to any small home-based business or for personal use where 8.5 x 11 documents will be the primary type of item scanned.


"Great product", This is just one great product. Scans unbeliveably fast and clear. I was impressed that the software allows me to go into a scanned document consisting of multiple pages, and add, delete or re-arrange pages. I have been scanning a lot since I got the scanner and every once in a while you miss a page or get out of sequence. No problem to make it up later.

Excellent. 10 out of 10

"Great little scanner", Th ScanSnap 300 is aimed at the business crowd, and for that group of folks, this is a terrific little scanner. It is amazingly fast at double-sided scans, which is a huge time-saver. It scans directly to PDF, which is quite helpful, especially for those who don't have Acrobat or other similar software that allows them to do this. Of course, much of the beauty of this is its size -- small & light enough to throw into your computer bag along with your computer. This provides me the freedom to tackle some scanning jobs at venues outside of my office, or when I am on the road - a nice feature. I've been impressed with the quality of the scans, including color graphics, though admittedly I've not tried scanning photos. This is not designed to be a photo scanner. If that's your need, look for larger, cheaper, better flatbed photo scanners. My only gripe with this is that there is more plastic than I expected, and some parts seem a bit flimsy. That said, it has traveled to/from the office with me for a month, plus an overseas trip, and has stood up well for 6 weeks. Not cheap, but a worthwhile investment for those who need a fast, reliable, portable business scanner.

"Great little scanner", Overall, a great sheet feed scanner.
Pros: Auto duplex and color. Great images. Auto aligns scanned pages. Solid, reliable operation. Good scanning speeds.

Cons: Scan software only remembers the default location for images. Card scanner can't print card images or list. Locked in to Fujitsu's card mgmt software.

"Outstanding product", This product is just outstanding in my opinion. I have used this little gem for about 2 weeks and I have just been blown away by its simplicity of use and quality of results. My initial budget was $200 but I decided based on other reviews to spend a little extra for this scanner. My personal requirements were fairly simple - ability to scan in receipts and simple documents. I have scanned in a little over 100 receipts/documents so far and here is what I see:

1) General scan speed is very nice. I can scan one receipt after another very quickly.

2) Quality of the scan is adjustable but the default setting seems just fine. The PDFs generated seem to be optimized just right between quality and size.

3) Small receipts are hard to scan in straight. The very first one I tried went in at an awkward angle but the software adjusted it to look right. I may just be naive about this feature (maybe lots of other scanning software has this now) but I was totally impressed.

4) The SnapScan software organizes all the files essentially into directories so I'm not locked in to a proprietary format.

5) Moving and renaming the PDFs are very straightforward.

6) The scanner itself is not the smallest but it's still small enough that carrying it around is not too bad. This was not my primary requirement so it's not an issue for me. It seems like it is solidly built but time will tell.

7) I have not tried the searchable PDF feature. This is really not that important for me so I can't say how well this works.

8) The only negative thing I have come across is that the software cannot edit PDFs that were created by other software. I had another PDF document that I wanted to append to one of the receipts I scanned in but could not. PDF format is supposed to be a standard but I understand there are different versions and nuances. This is more of an occasional nuisance than a serious issue.

Overall, I have not used this scanner for very long but everything I have experienced has been very positive, minus the one issue with "external" PDFs. This product is definitely worth the money I paid for. I highly recommend it.

"Fabulous scanner with even better software included.", I bought one of these and tried it out. Worked so incredibly well I bought one for my other office (to have one on each desk). Worked so well three of my employees/colleagues wanted one. Got them all one. I am a long time believer scanning to save important notes on my computer rather than paper. This simply is the best scanner I've ever used. Easy to use, easy to understand, and the software that comes with it is the best scanning software I have ever seen or used(esp for the purpose of scanning notes and keeping them organized in a filing system). I've been using Scansoft for scanning needs. For scanning notes you intend to file and keep on your computer, this is so much better. In fact, it's so much better for rapidly turning anything into a PDF.

Update: I've been using two of these units now for over a month. They are fantastic and I like the software that comes with them even better than I did at first (and that was a lot). Fantastic equipment. Very usable, friendly, fast, and well thought through.

"This is the best and most reliable scanner we've ever used, and it is tiny !!!!", We have been testing replacement devices for traditional MFD devices since many of our field reps and franchisees don't really need printing or flat bed capabilities, and this Fuji is just absolutely superb.

It takes paper of all thicknesses, it has taken wrinkled, folded and other less than perfect documents that would normally jam up an HP 7000 series ADF, this thing automatically adjusts faded text to make it readable before it OCR's it.

The USB power option is compelling for us and the device scans about 2/3 normal speed when on USB power versus AC in our tests of B&W documents.

We'd rather use this Fuji with an inexpensive HP DeskJet or Lexmark and a $49 CanoScan in case you just absolutely have to have flatbed scanning.

We're sold on Fuji !

"I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEE that little Fujitsu scanner!!!!!!!", Feedback from the coworker I purchased this for:

I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEE that little Fujitsu scanner!!!!!!!
It only scans to PDF, I believe - well, that I can tell - but that works out great.
It's got searchable PDF with the ScanSnap software....

So I've been up this morning, playing with the scanner, scanning in all my meeting notes.
Can't wait to shred all the paper. :-)

Thanks again!
Good purchase!!!!

"So good I had tears in my eyes!", This scanner is so good I actually had tears in my eyes after using it! Took me 2 min to setup and it gave excellent PDF's with the click of a button.

If only all scanners were that good. A MUST MUST MUST buy if you're looking for an easy, fool proof, quick scanner that is tiny.
