Good for College

I was very impressed at how well this scanner can handle handwritten notes. They are on lined paper, which is not as clear as white copy paper. It's not a problem for the ScanSnap S510. I set it to Black and White and "Better" quality, and was able to scan 70 pages of notes in a matter of minutes. They came out crisp and legible, and when I was done, the PDF was only 3.6MB!

Jams do happen from time to time, because the rollers run the paper through so quickly. But it's easy to fix. Also, the scanner comes with a carrier sheet, for scanning newspapers and large documents, or preventing "multi-feeds" (when the feeder doesn't feed a single sheet like it's supposed to).

It's possible that a more expensive model would have a better feeder that wouldn't jam. Documents that were folded can be hard to feed. However, the scans are so quick and so impressive that it's forgivable.

Be advised that there are no TWAIN drivers for this scanner. You have to use ScanSnap Manager. The software is intelligent enough to rotate images automatically, and detect skew automatically and correct it. This is very nice to have. There appears to be some integration between the software and the hardware. For example, when you push the green SCAN button on the scanner, the software can detect whether there is a document in the scanner. If there is no paper, it will alert you.

I haven't tried the OCR so I can't comment on it. Instead, I use Adobe Acrobat to do OCR. In general, you shouldn't need an excessively high resolution to do it like some reviewers mentioned; 300 DPI is sufficient. Higher resolutions will simply require more processing time.

I highly recommend the ScanSnap S510. If you have a lot of paper documents, the ScanSnap S510 can help you.

Worthwhile investment

This scanner came highly recommended and did not disappoint. It has a small foot print, even when opened for scanning. While it takes a bit of time to set up software, once it is up and running, it is easy to use. A welcome addition to my small office, I am considering buying one for my home.

Quick and Easy to Use

The Fujitsu S510 is absolutely the fastest scanner I've ever seen. I love the fact that it converts on-the-fly to PDF and that it has a very small footprint. The only negative is that it occasionally takes in two sheets at a time. Overall I'm very pleased with the product.

Well worth the money!

For the price, I was actually really surprised how fast it works. The only problem I encountered was when I tried to scan in a large quantity of pages. Sometimes I had to play around with the pages so they would go through. From my experience the max pages you should put in at once would be no more than 30. Other then that, I am very happy with it. For its price it's definately the best quality product out there. If you need something that handles more volume and won't jam on you, you'll have to spend at least twice as much. It's also very compact and doesn't take up much desk space, which is definately a plus.

Excellant, quick scanner

Works great, a bit pricy however.
If you need to do a lot of scanning the price is worth it.
Comes w/a good software package as well.

In one step, the ScanSnap S510 scanner digitizes both sides of a document in a single pass, in color, and at an amazing speed of up to 18 pages per minute. With a touch of the button, the ScanSnap S510 scanner enhances the user experience with a host of automatic features. The ScanSnap S510 scanner easily installs via its USB 2.0 interface and its small footprint requires less space than a letter size piece of paper.
