Fujitsu Introduces the World's Smallest Color ADF Scanner

October 29, 2007 — New ScanSnap S300 Mobile Scanning Solution Enables Anytime, Anywhere Scanning for Mobile Professionals and Home Users

Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc., a market leader in document imaging scanners and services, today introduced the Fujitsu ScanSnap S300 mobile scanning solution, the world’s smallest color, duplex automatic document feeder (ADF) scanner. With an ultra-compact footprint measuring a mere 11.2" x 3.7" x 3.0" and weighing less than 3.1 lbs, the ScanSnap S300 scanner is small enough to fit in a briefcase or laptop bag, making it a great solution for the mobile business professional, and, with its advanced scanning functionality, also powerful enough to sit comfortably beside them in their office/home office when not on the go.

The new ScanSnap S300 mobile scanning solution offers the fastest "one-touch" conversion of paper documents into searchable Adobe® portable document format (PDF) files available today in the mobile scanning industry. Users simply load a stack of up to 10 documents into the ADF and press the "SCAN" button to produce searchable PDF files at speeds of up to 8 pages per minute (ppm) for single-sided documents and 16 images per minute (ipm) for double-sided documents. The ScanSnap S300 scanner can also be powered from a USB connection (USB 2.0/USB 1.1) on any PC, allowing road warriors to scan paper documents, receipts, bills, invoices and business cards anywhere they go. Here are a few other unique scanning features and software bundles included with the ScanSnap S300 scanner:

-Fujitsu ScanSnap Manager V4.2 – Provides a simple user interface that allows users to change settings for selecting applications, creating searchable PDF files, activating intelligent settings, choosing paper sizes, and modifying image compression output.

-Fast Scanning Speeds – At 8 ppm (simplex) and 16 ipm (duplex), the ScanSnap S300 scanner provides excellent color batch scanning performance. If A/C power is unavailable, the ScanSnap S300 scanner can be connected to a second actively powered USB port on any PC and provide color batch scanning speeds of up to 4 ppm (simplex) and 8 ipm (duplex).

-Business Card Scanning – CardMinder™ V3.2 transforms business cards into editable information and can import contacts from external databases, export contacts to other contact managers such as Microsoft Outlook®, and even synchronize them.

-Fujitsu ScanSnap Organizer V3.2 – Provides advanced viewing and control of scanned content, including large thumbnails consisting of all the pages scanned within the batch.
