Ricoh ScanSnap iX100

The cross platform compatible ScanSnap iX100 brings the power and intuitiveness of the ScanSnap range of models to a compact and totally wireless format. Weighing just 400g the ScanSnap iX100 comes with a USB rechargeable Lithium-ion battery that is capable of up to 260 A4 scans on a full charge. Combined with an ability to scan either via a wireless network to PC workstations or mobile devices running the ScanSnap Connect Application this ScanSnap delivers a true 'scan anytime scan anywhere potential'.The ScanSnap iX100 can automatically detect Wi-Fi networks at home, in the office or on the go, it is only needed to be set up once after which any regularly visited network environment will be automatically detected. Alternatively with Direct Connect mode it is possible to scan wirelessly beyond an infrastructure network, simply download the ScanSnap Connect Application free of charge from the official application distribution services and then scan, save and distribute documents directly to an iPad, iPhone or Android device.A multitude of everyday documents can be seamlessly processed by the iX100 at a speedy 5 seconds per A4 page, whether it be business cards or receipts (check out the impressive dual scan functionality that allows you to scan small documents simultaneously), photos, thicker items like postcards, bills, everyday A4 documents or even A3 documents. Scan both sides of a folded A3 document one after the other and if an adjoining pattern is detected the bundled software will automatically join the 2 page images together.The ScanSnap iX100 comes with a choice of paper paths, a straight paper path aids for the scanning of everyday documents and thick materials like post cards, business cards, and plastic ID or credit cards and a u-turn path helps facilitate the scanning process when space is at a premium or indeed when the Continuous Document Feeding function is activated. The Continuous Document Feeding function allows the insertion of pages one after another by detecting when a sheet enters and exits. Set the document face-up into the iX100 and push the Scan button, the iX100 will then proceed to scan the front side after which the page will exit from the top of the scanner if the paper path is set to U-turn, simply then re-insert the page without pressing the Scan button to scan the back side.
