Review: Fujitsu ScanSnap fi-5110EOX2

By Sara Skiff | Tuesday, May 23, 2006

Michael Proctor, Review: Fujitsu ScanSnap fi-5110EOX2

TechnoLawyer member Charles West ask:
"I'd like to hear opinions from users of the Fujitsu ScanSnap fi-5110EOX2 for its application in a solo law office. What is the impact of no TWAIN or WIA drivers and does the 600 pixels of the ScanSnap (versus 1200 pixels of its competitors) matter significantly?"

This shet-fed scanner has been effortless to use, and was, you'll pardon the pun, a "snap" to install and setup. The software allows easy organization of all images. As for the TWAIN problems — for those who need that (whatever it is), it is a simple matter to continue to use a flat bed (better resolution for SOME things) machine, just as I have elected to do. The little ScanSnap is no doubt the best tech/office purchase I have made in years. I have no complaints about the 600 resolution — and with a decent printer — the end result is very, very good quality. As always, it depends on what you are scanning and why. If you just want to move toward the "paperless" office, this is the way to go.
