Tips & Tricks

Organize easier, integrate better

  • ScanSnap Home is a powerful document management system assisting easy document viewing, editing, and searching. Find the information you need using keyword search and organize scans according to document type and tags.
    After scanning, simply drag and drop to insert documents into Word, PowerPoint and email.

Additional Features

You can still save to preferred file destinations. If for security reasons, you cannot save files onto your desktop, you can save files without saving to ScanSnap Home.

Text re-recognition without rescanning

  • The software "reads" data on business cards and receipts so that you can directly utilize text on your scanned documents. Start composing emails from business cards and export financial data on your receipts as CSV files.

    Even if the software fails to read the proper text area the first time around, fixing is simple since you can re-run OCR by selecting the area you would like to read again.



Flexible access to Cloud

  • Use scanning profiles to save to Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, OneDrive even when scanning from scanners connected over USB.

    If scanning from devices supporting ScanSnap Cloud*1, *2, enabling complete PC-less scanning to your favorite cloud services.

    In addition, iX1500 makes this even easier since saving to cloud is completed with a single push of the cloud profile shortcuts on the touch screen. Connect to your favorite cloud and get the most productivity out of your scanner.

Easy profile editing from task/menu bar

  • Add new scanning profiles or edit existing profile settings from the icon displayed in the task tray (Win) and menu bar (Mac).

    If you are using models without touch panel, you can select the profile to use from the ScanSnap Home icon on the task tray and menu bar so that you can switch to your favorite scan setting easily and start scanning quickly.

  • *Displayed screens may vary depending on your environment.

Temporary switch settings quickly from Scan window / Touch panel

  • Customized scanning profiles will not always address immediate scanning needs and you may want to make minor adjustments from time to time. In times like this, make temporary setting adjustments from the 4 small buttons next to the big Scan button. These settings will only apply for a single batch so that there is no need to worry about these minor changes impacting future scans.

    What's more, with iX1500 equipped with its big touch screen, you can temporarily switch to Manual Feed mode by pressing the Scan button for 3 seconds. Ability to quickly switch between scanning mode enables flexible scanning of mixed batches.

    *With latest version of the ScanSnap Home software and firmware.

  • We are committed to make your migration process stress-free

    Data from previous software like ScanSnap Manager, ScanSnap Organizer, and CardMinder are migrated for total use in ScanSnap Home.
    Since ScanSnap Manager settings are also exportable, there is no need to worry about losing anything while migrating between platforms.
