Fujitsu Enters Mobile Scanner Market with ScanSnap S300 ADF

If you do a lot of scanning at home, in the office, or on the go then you know what I mean when I say that scanners are generally bulky, loud, annoying, and just no fun at all. Well it would certainly appear that the folks over at Fujitsu have heard the complaints and done something about it and introduced the world’s smallest color Automatic Document Feed Scanner, the ScanSnap S300.

This little beauty has an ultra-compact footprint of just 11.2" x 3.7" x 3.0", features one-touch scanning into PDF, can load up to 10 documents at a time, and scan up to 8 pages per minute (16 if you count double-sided scanning) in AC power mode. What is impressive about it though is that it is also designed to be a mobile scanner for you on the go and can be powered by the almighty USB. Two USB cables are needed for bus-powered operation, but only one of which handles the data transfer. However, this mode will lower scan speed to 4 ppm (simplex) and 8 ipm (duplex). At least you don’t have to lug around that hefty power brick and worry about finding somewhere to plug it in anymore. Just leave it at the desk when you need to leave and it will be there waiting for you to plug it back in when you return.
