Visioneer Strobe XP 100

 

Road warriors looking to maximize productivity even while holed up in a two-star motel room in Dubuque will swoon over Visioneer's new Strobe XP 100 ($200 street), a sheetfed color scanner that checks in at less than 11 ounces. They can quickly capture...

No Vista Drivers?

 

I WILL PURCHASE A NEW SCANNER BUT NOT FROM VISIONEER.

This scanner does a good job for portable laptop use on the road, I use it for faxing contracts via wireless broadband from my vehicle. It is very fast and only requires a USB connection

NO VISTA DRIVERS

Do Not Buy

 

There are many other competetive products that match or exceed this scanners performance for MUCH less in price!

Compact, No power supply required

Terrible, lousy cusomer support, no driver updates for Vista. Do not purchase because it will NOT work with Microsoft Vista. It would require a minimal amount of effort to make it compatible but they want to force you to purchase a new one. They ARE...

Terrible Customer Support on XP100

 

I can't imagine a company making a product that has difficulties - and then adding terrible customer support on top of that.

Great form factor - Good looking solution for use with PaperPort document management software

Technical support is terrible. Wait times are long and they want $20 on your card every time you call. Even supervisors dont call you back. Paperport 11 crashes repeatedly using this scanner. Worked with vendor 1 month - and still no reply or solution

Forget It!

 

It's a disaster.

Software very buggy, crashed my XP system repeatedly.

Forget It!

 

There are very few small form factor sheetfed scanners available. Don't get this one. Fortunately, Newegg allowed me to return it immediately. Newegg rules!

It's a disaster. I bought this to replace an older Visioneer Strobe Pro, which worked fine for years. I like the form factor, as the unit fits nicely between keyboard and monitor

Software very buggy, crashed my XP system repeatedly. Driver hard to configure, auto start feature didn't work correctly, paper wiggles during scan, resulting in poor quality scan

Patience and practice necessary for straight scans

 

At first glance, the Strobe XP100 Visioneer portable scanner looked to be the answer to my mobile scanning needs. At second glance, I was ready to send it back and now, finally, I may be starting to live with it. It seemed like everything you ...

Small, quiet, good quality scans, very portable, easy to setup

Feed area needs work to ensure straighter scans

Overall - I like it.

 

Quick enough.Can mark-up scans w/highlighter, notes.Rotate, straighten, crop, etc.

Proprietary .max format-can be converted later.Sometimes must insert twice-could be machine.
