Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1400: Easy Scanning with Just One Touch of a Button

Jill B: This is my third ScanSnap scanner. The first one lasted 10 years until I decided I just wanted a newer model. The second one I accidentally allowed to fall off my desk. They are so easy to use that right out of the box you are being productive. Nothing complicated to set it up--just plug it in and follow the prompts. Simple but powerful, I recommend the iX1400 ScanSnap scanner highly.

J. Orr: My ScanSnap S1500 was many years old and used daily in my paperless office. It was an excellent sturdy workhorse that finally got annoyingly noisy on the scans and acted as though it was ready to retire.
This new ScanSnap iX1400 is a leap forward in technology - it is much faster and has very elaborate software. I am not really used to, nor am I using all the capability of the new software (old habits are hard to break) but I am delighted with the speed, feed reliability, and the snap-in receipt and business card adapter that works surprisingly well on the iX1400.

Dan Neuwirth: Wow, this is a definite three steps up from the prior scanners I've had which were functions of an "all-in-one" printer/scanner: slow, clunky, page jams, babysitting the scanner. All those problems are in the past now that I have my new ScanSnap.

Scanner installation was easy: simply download the appropriate installation package from the Fujitsu (now Ricoh) web site, install the software and plug in the USB 3 cable to the scanner when instructed. The entire installation process including downloading the software took under 10 minutes.

Open the lid, the scanner connects and powers on in about 2 seconds and is ready for use.

Put your documents in face down and facing the rear, click the one big bright blue button (!) and zip zip zap your pages are ingested at a rate of about 40 pages per minute, EVEN double sided! Yep, scan a double-sided 40-page (80 impressions) document in 60 seconds! Natively saves to PDF so multi-page single files are no problem.

Software is a little clunky---it's kind of one of those "does it all" interfaces with a thousand options, but seems to miss some of the more obvious advanced settings that would be conducive to advanced...

QT: First of all, I have an older version of this same scanner that no longer is supported by my operating system. I am on Mac. Purchased this one specifically because it did not have a cloud feature. Who wants their personal records on the cloud? Not me. Download software, install, click a few buttons and ready to go after you connect it to your computer. I do alot of scanning (alot) some items are double sided, color, some are tiny and fragile, etc... I always scan to pdf file, but you can scan to Word, etc... What I noticed about this updated unit (maybe it is user error) but before it use to ask me to type a filename now it just assigns a file name on its own. Not a biggy as I just rename it. But, what I did notice is it is super fast. I thought my old one was fast well this one is super duper fast. High quality. Does multiple pages...can scan a year's worth of electric bills in one go and it takes about a minute to scan in color, high quality and saved in a pdf file. Bills are usually 4 pages per month. It really is a great scanner. My old one I had for 10+ years and am happy to see they made a version without cloud.

VanMan: This is my second scansnap. The opening flap on the first one was broken after a decade of abuses. This the gold standard for small office use.

Flashman: Love the Scansnap. Used an S1500 for 7+ years which worked great until Windows 11 then had to upgrade to the ix1400. Couldn't get Fujitsu's recommended software to install. Spent hours with tech support. Finally decided just to install Scansnap Manager by itself without using the glitchy Scansnap Home software. Worked like a charm. Only giving it 4 stars because of the software installation headache but once up and running fantastic scanner.

THATCHMAN1: The speed at which this scanner can scan double sided documents is STUNNING. If it's the first time you've used a high speed duplex scanner you may be shocked. It rockets the sheets through there with such speed you think: Wait, really!? Is this possible? Is this real!?

I bought this for one simple reason: The one I had no longer had software that would work with Windows 11 and wasn't really supported on Windows 10 either. Looking at them in person, it's hard to understand why I reached a point of obsolescence on a scanner that still worked better than most in the market, but that is another story.

This unit was very easy to set up and the software installed easily. Due to a death in the family, my family ended up having large volumes of paperwork from a variety of sources and being able to bring those up at a fingertip, while in the office of some professional, is really helpful and critical to keeping things moving quickly. I have another Scansnap unit -- the S1100, which is older, but still works quite well. It's great for travel, rather slow, and VERY slow compared to this model. In retrospect I should have purchased this unit sooner as I wasted a LOT of time...

Coke: And this is about as good as it gets. Very fast, reliable, doubles sided simultaneous scannning in full Colour should you so desire. Can make searchable .pdfs' and so many more very useful features! - Highly Recommend and if I had one wish it would be that it could open a pdf made elsewhere and convert to a searchable document!
