 "Good little scanner" 2010-09-13
By AmandaT
Meets my expectations. Works great for converting docs to PDF. Small enough for between my keyboard and monitor, even flips the post scanned page back to me. I only scan a few pages a day but this feels like I am saving hours!

 "Works well" 2009-01-30
By Herb Liverett (Sacramento, CA)
I purchased three of these scanners. These small scanners are the best for scanning to PDF. However, they are not the best for light text. For standard pages they are the best. The small foot print is great for the desktop.

 "Strobe Xp 220, 600DPI Scanner" 2009-01-24
By Charles A. Ward (Norfolk, VA USA)
I have had a series of Stobe XP Scanners over the past 8 years and I have been very happy with all of them. I had to buy a new Visioneer scanner because my XP 200 was not compatible with Vista. I had to return the first Strobe XP 220 because the paper feed jammed frequently. The second unit is not sensitive enough to sense thin paper or receipts. I will have to return this unit also.



Out of frustration I bought the ScanSnap S300. It is a great scnanner and worked perfectly right out of the box. The ScanSnap software is very basic compared to Paperport. I scan into the ScanSanp software but use Paperport to manage my documents. This adds several steps, but ScanSnap software does not have all the features you need to manage documents.



If you have Version 10 of Paperport with a Visioneer Scanner, you will disappointed with the Vista Compatible Version 11 of Paperport. Many of the best features of Paperport have been removed. I can no longer print to Paperport directly from many of my programs. Having said that, Paperport is still the best low cost document manager I have used.

Returned scanner. Only readable when scanned black ink on white paper. Any colored page or pencil was not legible.

 "Awesome Scanner" 2010-02-26
By R. Nangano (East Setauket NY USA)
this is the most awesome scanner.. It is small & compact and so easy to use. For use in the office, when I have to scan contracts I can do it with such ease.. then I save it as a PDF and then can email to all concerned - FAST. I recommend this machine to everyone who needs a fast scanner for their home or office. You will not be disappointed. There may be cheaper machines out there but once you use this, you will wonder how you got along without it.

 "Great scanner...if you have a later version" 2009-02-06
By B. Wyatt (Cave Creek, AZ United States)
I love this scanner...it is fast, generally bullet proof. There are a few weird things about it, like it doens't like to be plugged into UPS. It prefers to be plugged into a stip of the wall.



It does lose connection occasionally (not often). The fix is to power off the scanner and turn it back on with the switch onthe back. It takes 10 seconds...MAX.



This last purchase from Amazon however the scanner on this order I received was an older version of the scanner, which leads me to believe it had been sitting in the warehouse for a long time.

By Sol M. Israel (New York, NY)
I recommend this scanner without qualification. It is easy to use and fast. I can't believe I waited so long to buy a scanner for my office use. I may buy a second one for home and personal uses.

 "Be very careful" 2007-10-16
By J. Michael Walker (Texas)
Be VERY careful when purchasing anything from Visioneer. I have owned a visioneer scanner for about 4 years, and when I upgraded my PC to Vista, was shocked to learn that Visioneer considers it "out of production" and therefore no new drivers are available. In short, I now own a boat anchor. If you think you might EVER upgrade your computer, you might be better off purchasing from a company who supports their equipment. By the way, I had to call a 900 number to find out that the product is no longer supported - I actually had to PAY to get ripped off.

 "Great hardware, horrible support" 2004-12-29
By Malby
I have used PaperPort/Visioneer scanners for close to a decade, and loved them all. For some reason, though, their code gets worse and worse and their "support" simply does not exist.

For some reason, in order to install a new scanner, you have to remove all vestiges (even hidden ones) of the prior scanner software and drivers. Forget installing TWO scanners (I have both a Visioneer flatbed and a Strobe XP 450).



Is it too much to ask to get support for an item that costs $650?

 "Not for Windows 7" 2010-07-14
By Shirly (California)
I agree with all the other reviews that it as faults in paper feeding, paper size, etc. but while I managed to deal with all that and still make good use of the thing - that was gone once I got Windows 7. Even even installing all the updated drivers from Visioneer's web site if I got one feature to work another wouldn't. If I wanted scan soft the one touch didn't work, if I wanted one touch it would only scan to certain outputs...I've spent so much time updating and changing settings to no avail!

 "Scan Camera is not the most reliable..." 2010-05-04
By Robert Y. Lamaute (Scarsdale, NY USA)
The Scan camera is not the most reliable, by that I mean in the middle of scanning it will occasionally stop picking up the image leaving you with a half-blank image. I basically gave up on the duplex scanning all together.



I used to be a bug fan of Visioneer. Now I'm looking at all-in-device HP devices instead

 "Excellent way to go paperless" 2008-01-07
By Randi Case (Reno, NV)
Bought this for my husband. He loves the ease of use and being able to reduce paper on his desk. Excellent product.

 "Sorry Visioneer, you just keep getting worse" 2007-11-17
By Charles Dickens (So CAL)
I bought this scanner awhile back thinking it would save a bunch of time to be able to scan both sides of a page in one feed. Silly me. This is the worst PaperPort I ever owned. I have owned four over the years and kept hoping they would get even better. I eventually returned this POS.



I wish I had the first PaperPort I ever bought, which was terrific, but of course was not updated to work with XP. Visioneer, if you're going to force us to upgrade at least make the new scanner as good as the last. I've had the 100, 200 and 300 and all of them are problem-plagued. The 200 and 300 cut off the top 1/4 inch of your doc no matter what you do. Their auto-crop feature works about one in four scans with the result being that it cuts the right or left third of the page off. I just spent most of the day scanning with the strobe 200 and nearly lost my mind. I had to unplug and replug to get the scanner to be recognized. I had to reboot. Refeed. Straighten. Rescan. You get the picture. I am one PO'd owner.



On the plus side, I have always found the folks at Visioneer tech support to be some of the most honest and patient I have ever encountered. I feel sorry for them. I'll bet they want to ring their friggin's engineers' necks fifty times a day!



Will someone come out with portable sheetfed scanner that really works and actually saves time instead of creating massive headaches? I'll pay $300 for such a scanner, but it BETTER WORK!



Also Visioneer engineers and coders, how about releasing a finished driver for the Strobe 200? Vista's only been out ten months now. What the heck!

 "Is the manual wrong?" 2007-03-15
By Glennsgirl
I'm really confused by the reviews here. I was thinking about buying this scanner a little while ago and was put off by all the negative reviews. However, today I found the manual at the Visioneer site and some of the complaints are addressed in the manual. Specifcally on page 119, it shows that the autoscan can be disabled, and if it is enabled the paper pickup delay can be adjusted. Are reviewers here saying that these features don't work, or are they simply unaware of the ability to choose these settings? Wish I knew!



Update: So I just got off the phone with tech support - because I can't stand unanswered questions - and the gentleman I spoke with was truly one of the most pleasant and helpful techies I've ever called. No joke. Definitely not the rude, indifferent people described in the other reviews! He informed me that you CAN in fact set the autostart delay if you want to. He said it was an issue when it was first released, but that it HAS been fixed. He also said that since the XP 300 is designed to be able to handle thicker items like driver's licenses, etc., that it does handle thinner items like receipts a little differently than the old scanners which were not designed to do this.



I loved my old strobe scanner, but as good as it was, even it could be finicky at times. It was a small price to pay for the convenience, though. Another thing to consider for those of you who have experienced connection issues or other weird behavior - CHECK THE CABLE. So often we blame the equipment and we forget the usb cables and the power cords we connect them with. They DO go bad! Back in the early 90's, our first computer was having numerous weird problems and I kept telling my husband to try a new power cord. He didn't listen, and kept trying more "likely" solutions. I finally convinced him we had nothing to lose by trying. New power cord, ALL the problems went away. I've run into this with power supplies, too. They weren't bad enough to quit, just bad enought to mess with things.
