Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 Portable Scanner

Fujitsu are launching their latest SnapScan portable scanner. The newest model is called the Fujitsu SnapScan S1300 and is capable of scanning up to 8 pages per minute (double-sided). This means that you have a full duplex high speed portable scanner that can be taken anywhere and is powered by USB.

With the scanner being USB powered it’s only a matter of quickly connecting it up to a PC or Mac which enables the power, and then launch the application, insert the paper and hit scan. Seven to eight seconds later your document is scanned and can then be uploaded to a service such as EverNote.

Following the successful launch of the ScanSnap S300 and S300M, the predecessors of the ScanSnap S1300, it was important that we bring even more scanning functionality and platform flexibility to mobile consumers and business professionals with this latest solution, said Michael Sidejas, product marketing manager, Fujitsu computer Products of America, Inc. Whether it is scanning contracts, receipts, bills, invoices, or business cards on the road or using a PC at one place and a Mac at another, the new ScanSnap S1300 provides users the tools to be even more productive and paperless anywhere, regardless of the computer they use.

The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 portable scanner is available now costing $295 in the US. If this particular scanner doesn’t quite do what you need then another portable scanner is also available. Similar portable scanners can be found here.
