The office we need!

We bought a Fujitisu ScanSnap to free our office from many bank drawers full of documents. It was money very well spent. In about a month I scanned at least 20 bank boxes. (This was in addition to my other office projects.) I can't even begin to estimate how many documents I've scanned since we bought it in December 2004. It's been almost a year and the scanner is working. strong! I can't believe how fast it scans both sides of a sheet of paper. I've scanned various sizes of paper from letter to legal and even small notes. Of course I have to scan different sizes separately, but at least it scans them. The only thing that annoys me is that I can't use the computer for other tasks while scanning because the ScanSnap is constantly "taking control". "Computer. My current workaround is to use two computers. One is for scanning documents and the other for working on other projects. This could have been an expensive workaround, but we already had a computer available. ScanSnap technical support also deserved my praise. I lost the installation CD to install the scanner on a second computer and tried to find information on the Fujitsu website. I had to call to get the information. The woman I spoke to emailed me the FTP link while we were still on the phone. Would I buy this product again? Definitive. It's a cute little device that hardly takes up any space on my desk. The freed up office space is amazing. Good to know important documents can now be converted to PDF and stored in the office to protect that information. Another amazing thing is that we ordered this item on Monday and received it at our office on Friday!
