The scanner is a good worker. Double Sided Scans happen quickly across the stage and with the appropriate OCR software succeed searchable PDF files in a short time. I use the scanner to my paper mountains of agendas, minutes, etc. to reduce and keep the content overview. The document feeder works very well, with freshly copied documents should once BROWSE short to avoid a paper jam. Properly set the scanner to eliminate paper jams stops to crumple without paper. Bad is in my view rather useless bundled software, the operation is difficult to open up. Good is only the Button Manager, with which you desired scan functions (images, text in Word, text in pdf, etc.) may make it available at your fingertips. The settings of the scanner driver are very well adapted to the functions required in each case. To take advantage of the hardware capabilities of the scanner I bought the OCR software ABBYY FineReader 11. This software is easy to use and provides good OCR results. Indexing I would recommend Google Desktop that creates within a short time very useful indices of PC drives (incl. Mail files). Overall I would recommend the scanner and would also very 4 stars awarded if the bundled software of better quality would be.
