Review on Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1500 Color Duplex Document Scanner with Touch Screen - White Model (2020 Release) for Mac and PC by Rick Pickering

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Much better than IX500!

Let me first say that this model is much better than the previous model, some reviewers would like to keep it! Although we had two IX500s, the software was just as difficult to install and use, so forget it: it's not a problem. Not only does this software have the same package, but now it allows you to scan directly to the cloud and also perform character recognition on it. Learning software after working with software at 500 was just another step forward - like moving from Windows 7 to Windows 10, of course you have to learn something new. The task is also much, much easier than before. because there are so many how-to videos. I've looked at maybe half a dozen and still refer to it when I hit a bump, but let's face it: Getting more options -- a lot more actually -- means there are more "forks" in the road than before . Challenge with the idea that this model is "more fragile" than the IX500, which still had plastic in the same places. But in my opinion these parts are much easier to use and much less prone to breakage than before and much more functional. Otherwise, this little beauty is just as reliable a car as the previous model. I was an R&D engineer in development then became a designer and spent about 17 years in it and another 6 years in the field doing installs and repairs (sometimes on site). , heaping repairs) and I still take apart every new machine or tool I get for my workshop, fix it my way and reassemble it before use, so I feel justified in saying that this is a very good workhorse that will outlast my legal job for many years.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Good overall but...
