High expectations - low performance

If you plan to use this scanner for anything other than scanning a sheet of paper, I recommend using your trusty flatbed scanner. I've personally tried scanning book pages, magazine articles, and anything that had an image I wanted to capture. The device is not configured to capture a full page of books, magazines, etc. The scanner window cannot capture an image of a book page - about an inch and a half is lost through the binding - no matter which way. I bought this item to enable single page…

Useless-impractical for the user

Can't get it to work. If my daughter tried it, no luck either. No customer service from iris unless you count the record and NOBODY answers your call!

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Can't remember

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poorly written instructions. The ease of use of the device is good.

Poorly put together manual. The usability of the device is far below existing standards. To top it off, they now want $65 for a software update, five weeks after purchase. You should be ashamed of yourself!

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Almost everything is

IRIS Scan Product Difficult to use

The big problem is that I could not find technical support for this product. The software was difficult to use and technical support is required for the scanner to work properly. I didn't have enough time to get this scanner working without tech support.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • embarrassing

Poor results when scanning book pages

Does not work as advertised. Bought to scan pages in books that would not work on a flatbed scanner. Does not scan completely from field to field and top to bottom, regardless of whether the scanner is used top to bottom, bottom to top, right to left, or left to right. Images are not composited. does not scan materials along the anchor interface. The Instant Result software is very poor and the scanner has to be restarted every time it is used to transfer the image to the computer. Distorts…

Pros
  • Quick Replace
Cons
  • Unsafe

It takes some getting used to.

While the scanner and software are working. A tutorial video on how to get the most out of your scanner would be helpful. There is a learning curve to get good results. The scanner's design is not ideal for scanning the inside edge of a book. A narrower track would have helped, and larger rollers could have coded the path. The scanner needs built-in height detection when you tilt the scanner instead of just dragging it. The scanner also needs a side button to indicate that you are ready to…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Out of fashion

High Hopes - Low Yield

Customer service is great but other than that unfortunately not what I expected.

Not quite what I expected , but it's a good option for items I can't use my feed scanner for. Unfortunately it needs a technique to avoid distorted scans and I still haven't mastered the technique, if you scan too fast it's not accurate to get an image, if you scan too slow you have more time, accidentally distorting the image because - for uneven scanning. It's fantastic for SMALL documents and pictures, not so much for documents and pages from books as advertised. Customer service is…

Pros
  • 1.5 inch color screen Scanning up to 100 documents per day Powered by USB Li-Ion battery Instant result function: real-time display of scanned images on PC screen
Cons
  • High price

Books with large margins only

First, the scanner glass does not reach to the edge, so scanning books with small margins is not possible. My paperbacks will barely make it to the page, if ever. Second, Wi-Fi isn't really Wi-Fi. It's a weird Bluetooth that connects over Wi-Fi. It would be better if they just did a Bluetooth connection. This will disable your internet and you will need to open a browser to access the files. Strange and stupid. Third, software bug. A lot of. This software doesn't recognize words very well, it…

Pros
  • Ideal for scanning your flying format documents, no PC and rechargeable lithium battery required
Cons
  • Small things
