This review is from: Plustek Opticslim M12 A4 Color USB Power Mobile Scanner (Office Product)

Scanner arrived in only 3 working days with the Amazon free shipping. The scanner is very small and very easy to use while working in the field. Being powered by USB cable is a real convenience! Scans are very good and the software is easy to use. Scanner is somewhat slow but no slower than any other scanner I have used that is this same size. It was easy to install and I have had only one paper jam so far - totally my fault! I did not put paper in correctly (paper must be put against the right side of slot and in straight). Jam was easy to remove without any problems. I would definitely buy again.

I ordered this scanner thinking that it can scan documents into pdf format to be opened with Adobe Acrobat Reader; however, it needs it's own software to scan and open the documents. I am not satisfied with this product for the price spent on it. If you dont mind having to use the specific software to use the scanner - then this will fit your needs. I recently found out that you will have to download Digimax PDF software from the manufacturer's website if you want instand pdf files. The software will be for the M12 Plus model, but it works.

downloading it to Windows 7 was difficult for me, but I look forward to using the scanner for DoD applications and it is compact enough for me to take with me anywhere I take my laptop.
