What is the best scanner and scanner software for the Mac?

Question

I want to know the best fully mac compatible scanner out there (the scanner would mostly be used for business documents). Price is not so much of an issue as quality of scanner, but cheaper is better as long as the scanner works well. you know of any? Also, what is the best scanner software for the mac. As far as i know, VueScan is one of the most popular... do you know of a better one?

Answer 1

The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 I think is the best document scanner on the market. And the great thing for you is they have a ScanSnap product version for Macs!



Follow the link below for more info and a full product review on the ScanSnap. There's also a link there to the ScanSnap for Mac version.



Price for it is about $420. It is very fast, great scanning quality and has proven very reliable for me. I've used ScanSnap scanners for over 5 years. By fast, it scans 20 ppm, and it handles double-sided documents in "one" pass, so technically, it can scan 40 pages per minute :-)



Another quick tip -- the scanner comes with Adobe Acrobat, which gives you very powerful features for managing, creating and modifying your PDF files. The Acrobat software alone costs a lot! I think costs $300 by itself, and it comes bundled with the ScanSnap.
