I bought this (slightly used & at a great price) to scan in some of my books to take with me on vacation. As far as scanning goes, this scanner does not disappoint.
I get very clear scans every time. No maintenance issues with this yet despite 10's of 1000's of sheets being fed through.
My complaints are minor and few:
* Sheets sometimes get stuck when this powers through a large stack of sheets. However, the scanning procedure allows for simple, straightforward restart wherever you are in the scanning process to start rescanning the trouble sheet and continue on.
* The artificial, 1000-page PDF limit has been a problem, but free apps like PDFSAM ([...]) solve that issue when they arise.
* The rubber rollers will occasionally need to be wiped to get the paper dust off, but it's a minor issue with a quick fix.
* Pages will occasionally get skewed, needing to be rescanned (simple procedure to correct described above). However, included driver software can often fix even a 30º skew and make the page read normally (if it's smaller than 8 1/2" wide).
* Sometimes, the color temperature between the two scanning sensors (top and bottom) doesn't always match, but it's normally not an issue with text-quality documents.
* Driver software makes navigating via keyboard only a little more difficult than other apps.
* Drive software (running on Mac OS 10.6.8) crashes after save lately. It's not a real issue since documents get saved where when and how I specify, but it can still be disconcerting.
I really appreciate the MANUAL one-button operation. The unit folds up neatly, but is easy to access to clear jams and for cleaning. I haven't had any real issues yet.
I only wish Fujitsu made an affordabe version (or any version for that matter) that could scan 11x17's or 18" wide documents so I could scan drawings to email from home.
