Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500

Very fast; includes OCR software and business-card reader software for Windows users; simple to use.

Doesn't scan photos well; doesn't scan oversized documents; OCR software isn't available for Mac.

Fujitsu's ScanSnap S1500 is a fast, compact, and easy-to-use scanner for digitally archiving all your paper documents.

Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500

The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 delivers fast desktop scanning for documents and business cards.

Document and business-card scanner. Rated at 20 pages per minute (ppm), or 40 images per minute (ipm) for scanning both sides.

Lack of a standard driver means you can't give a scan command from within a program.
