This scanner is black, small and fast. It has the ability to scan items such as documents, photos, articles, brochures and business cards. This small device is very powerful and uses specially integrated systems to assist in precise document scanning. Images are enhanced by Kofax VRS and connected to the computer using a high speed USB 2.0 interface. Visioneer and Kofax VRS have worked together to create a device that has the highest level of scanning potential. This little portable scanner is capable of excellent image transcription and can all be done with the touch of your hand. OneTouch is a system within the scanner that ensures that your items scan quickly and efficiently without opening any other annoying programs up to interfere. Visioneer Strobe XP Sheetfed Scanner doesn’t end there with its innovative solutions; it also ensures that the scanner is sensitive and aware of when paper is placed in the scanner. This is done through AutoLaunch technology which has been specially designed for this scanner. When OneTouch and AutoLaunch technologies are used together, a world of opportunities is created. This allows excellent scanning, transcription, colors and speed all at your fingertips. When these two programs work together it also allows for swift decision making of where you would like to place the document in your computer files once it is scanned (i.e. Email, Saved Folders, Desktop, Etc.). When you purchase this advanced portable scanner you will ensure that all of your documents, applications and computer software are compatible. This is done by the bundle that this item comes with which includes; Visioneer OneTouch with Kofax VRS technology, ArcSoft PhotoImpression, Nuance PaperPort, Nuance OmniPage Pro and TWAIN and WIA drivers. The last feature I think is important to discuss on this product is the fact that it has PDF compatibility. PDF has been on the uprising the last several years and now a lot of documents are best viewed in this format. This scanner allows image only PDF or text only PDF searching and scanning. This is a wonderful feature because it allows you to search for your document or file not only by its name but by the text within it. This transportable scanner also enables you to scan photos and documents into usual formats of JPEG, TIFF, HTML, DOC and XLS. Portable scanners are on the up-rise and are an excellent tool for businesses, homes, students or on-the-go demanding jobs. This product is available at select stores and retails for $299.99.
