Great product, the best of the scanners

I don't normally do product reviews but I felt this little scanner definitely deserved a review. I bought this mainly because I have a bunch of recipes that I've ripped from books or printed off the internet and I was trying to find a way to organize them all into one PDF document so I could easily put them in my computer recipe could import program. This little scanner is great for just that. I can scan pages (many paper types are too slick and jam in my sheetfed scanner) and connect them to my computer. Voila! That's where my images are, which I can then put into a PDF document for myself using Adobe Acrobat. The scanner does NOT come with a micro SD card so make sure you get one. You DO NOT need to remove the micro SD card from the scanner; All you have to do is plug the scanner into a USB drive and it will be recognized by your computer as a removable disk. There are two DPI settings. I haven't figured out how to permanently set DPI to 600 instead of 300, but every time you turn it on it gets better scans when 600 DPI is present. Yes, it takes a bit more memory, but it's worth it. I wouldn't use it for photos because I have a good scanner for that. My main goal was to scan printed materials. It's also great to take to the university library to scan articles and the like without having to make (and pay for) copies or proofread books.

Pros
  • Document scanner
Cons
  • Everything is fine
