Fujitsu ScanSnap S300 Getting Started Guide

1
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the ScanSnap S300 Color Image Scanner product.
The ScanSnap S300 is a color image scanner capable of scanning double-sided
documents. It is a complete Office Solution, which helps you improve productivity and
solve scanning problems in your office. The features of the ScanSnap product are as
follows:
• You can turn images on paper into PDF files by just pressing the [SCAN] button!
You can turn documents cluttering up your desk into PDF files, which are easy to
print and attach to e-mail messages; you can view, edit, manage, and archive them on
your computer right at your fingertips.
In addition, the ScanSnap can automatically recognize the type of documents, color
or black-and-white, so that the size of the scanned image file can be reduced when
documents containing both color and black-and-white pages are scanned. (Moreover,
the ScanSnap can automatically remove blank pages from the document to further
reduce the size of the file.)
• You can scan documents with speed and efficiency!
Double-sided color documents of A4 or letter in size can be scanned at a speed of:
• Power-cable-connected: Approx. 8 sheets/minute
• USB-bus-power-cable-connected: Approx. 4 sheets/minute
(when used with a computer with Intel
®
Celeron
®
M 430 1.73 GHz or higher that
runs Windows
®
2000, Windows
®
XP or Windows Vista
®
and with Scan mode set to
Normal, Color mode Auto, and Compression rate 3, and others set to defaults)
• You can eliminate the nuisance of a bulky device!
Smaller than a sheet of A4 or letter paper in size, the ScanSnap can fit unobtrusively
on your desktop all the time.
• Compact, light-weight, portable body design!
Its compact, light-weight design makes it possible to hand-carry the scanner together
with your laptop computer. There is no need to find an electrical outlet for the
ScanSnap if you use the supplied USB bus power cable to connect to your computer.
• You can file business cards with ease!
With CardMinder
TM
, which is supplied with the scanner, business cards can be easily
filed and searched for using the OCR function.
• The Quick menu lets even beginners operate the ScanSnap with automatic
ease!
When the [SCAN] button is pressed, the Quick menu is displayed. What you should
do is to select the action you want to perform on the Quick menu. The Quick menu is
simple enough for first-time use by completely neophytes. (Quick menu mode)
