Compact scanners aren’t just for personal use anymore. As work from home remains widespread, telecommuters look for robust, space-efficient solutions for digitizing paper documents. Enter the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300, a small scanner that’s big on functionality and performance. Several top gestures make it an indispensable part of any remote worker’s office setup.
One-Button Scanning
Thanks to intelligent image processing, the iX1300 delivers convenience, efficiency, and accuracy. One-Button scanning lets you digitize documents with literally the push of a button. The iX1300 scans and instantly saves your document in your desired format: searchable PDF and JPEG, as well as MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
As a dedicated scanner, the ScanSnap iX1300 offers easier and more accurate imaging than many all-in-one units. While you can learn how to scan from printer to computer, the iX1300’s One-Button scanning simplifies the process. With direct scan-to-cloud functionality plus scanning to mobile devices, email, printers, Macs, and PCs, ScanSnap scanners offer far more utility and flexibility.
Robust Features
ScanSnap software powers many vital features on the iX1300. This model comes with ScanSnap Home, which handles several core functions to deliver high-quality scans. Image correction detects color and document sizes, corrects skewed and blank pages, and improves photos with automatic facial orientation and red-eye reduction. Document categorization recognizes and organizes standard documents, business cards, and receipts.
ScanSnap Home packs in even more utility. Other capabilities include multilingual support for documents, business cards, and receipts plus faster file naming and finding, text auto-correction, and personalized profiles with your custom settings. With Profile Icons, you can choose your file location and start scanning in seconds. What’s more, you can perform quick edits to your scans before sending them to their destinations.
Dedicated Front Feeder
Besides letter- and legal-size sheets, the iX1300 scans many other types of documents. It incorporates a dedicated front feeder with manual feed capabilities. This front feeder allows flexible return path scanning, supporting both single-sided and duplex imaging. Scanning smaller and thicker items such as photographs, business cards, ID cards, booklets, and pamphlets is more efficient and minimizes jams, faulty scans, and damage to the originals. You can accomplish all these tasks without occupying precious desk real estate with a flatbed scanner.
Compact Desktop Design
Space is often at a premium whether working from home or the office. With its space-saving design, the ScanSnap iX1300 puts document imaging within easy reach at any workspace. It measures 11.5 by 3.9 by 3.0 inches and weighs a mere 4.4 pounds, fitting inside a desktop corner or your laptop bag. It also supports multiple connectivity options: USB 1.1, 2.0, and 3.2 along with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WiFi. With its 100-240V AC adapter, the iX1300 can plug into almost any outlet. Size, connectivity, and dual-voltage power make the iX1300 truly a go-everywhere scanner.
As both a personal and a home office scanner, the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300 has a lot to offer. Document digitization is speedier, simpler, and more accurate. Paired with a portable screen, remote workers enjoy the flexibility to work from nearly anywhere.
