Does this come with a document filing system software? How do you organize the documents you scan so that you can find them later?

Mine came with Paperport 11. We've used Paperport for 13 years and it's user friendly. I since returned the 3000 model and got an hp all in one

It does not come with filing software, but you don't need it. You can just save them as a pdf, tif, jpg, etc into any folder and anywhere you would like.

Scanning documents is easy. The thing eats batteries and is a pain if there are staples in the documents or if you are trying to scan a book. The file sizes are BIG even if you choose small ones. I've had to get apps to shrink them if I am going to save them, even as .pdfs. Over all, I love the scanner because it saves me a huge amount of time.

Hi James. The device does work with a Mac, even without the software. When you scan without having a HD card plugged in, you'll just plug the scanner into a USB port and the drive will show up like an external hard drive. You can manually move the scanned files over. I don't use their software to organize my files. I prefer other programs, so I'm not sure of their software works with MAC but their website might say. Also, you can download their software when you register your product. I think they do this in case you loose your disc, but either way, it would work for your situation. Hope that helps!

It does not have any storage. It IS USB powered and as such have no battery or power adapter. You need a computer/laptop with a USB port(s) to scan. You don't need their software, only the drivers. I use a Mac and use either Preview or Adobe Acrobat to make documents (.pdf), but there are all manner of apps that can access the scanner for various purposes. The neat feature of this scanner is that you can scan both sides of a document simultaneously. So in order of questions asked: No. Yes. No. No. You're welcome.

Yes, it comes with that stuff. It's a good scanner. If you've had other scanners you'll see that this one is very easy to use.

Towards the end of this Youtube video you can see that this unit does in fact have a flatbed scanner. You can easilyscan to an email or another account to manage the files easier.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zNIyVzyDac

I have this scanner. It only scans on one side. I never installed the software that came with it because it was immediately recognized by my mac. It may have software that assists with the page ordering but I'm sure you'd have to run the document through twice. I'd google it to see if you can get the manual online. Either that or see if there is some freeware to assist with the page ordering.

i didn't have to install anything to use its basic features. I insert an SD card, then scan documents. Then I take the SD card out and insert that in to my computer and the scanned items are in .jpg format on the SDcard. pretty simple.

Not sure I understand your question, but it is VERY easy to set up. Also you can batches of papers and instruct it to create a new PDF every X pages, so that creates individual PDFs - or split them later in adobe acrobat if you forget to do that before scanning. I can't sing the praises of this machine more btw. :)

Yes. I do it all the time. Just scanned in an 8 page document last night. That has more to do with software than the hardware and the software that comes with the scanner works well.

When you scan a stack of paper non stop, you can only give one file name. The software that it comes with, will allow you to rename the file.

The scanner works OK on Windows 7. Unfortunately the software does not. Scansnap Organizer is extremely slow and freezes up often. When trying to move a newly scanned document to another folder within SS Organizer it just stops and freezes for as long as three minutes before completing the move; sometimes it never does move the doc and I have to use End Process in the task manager to close it. I'm (trying to) running a Scansnap S300 on Windows 7 Home Premium, latest software, firmware, and drivers.I'm looking to replace it now.Jim

No- you'd have to sort things in Evernote by folders and tags. But it does do OCR so your scans are searchable.

It does have a document feeder, not sure how many pages it will handle at one time. Not related to scanning, I do have problems with the paper feed feeding multiple (sometimes up to five pages at a time) when printing though, this is very problematic if you have a limited amount of paper (ie, specialty paper).

The scanner is very portable, and this prevents it from having a sheet feeder. So yes, you do. Even at that, I found it much faster than using a printer/scanner and turning the sheets over, which makes a rather hard to use file.

Not sure what you mean by documents. It will only scan up to 11 inches wide. Maybe you mean will it tear up a document when the document is put into the scanner? If so, you can buy clear document protector sheets to put the documents into to scan. Not sure where you can buy them, but probably on Amazon!

I have never used it for documents, but because it is stored on a usb flash drive I would have to say yes as to anything you would like to scan through, it also saves to your hard drive.
