The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1100 thus enables customers to easily manage documents on their desktop, in popular offsite offerings or both. Users can facilitate access for themselves or others anytime, anyplace via a device platform of their choice – be it PC, Mac, iPhone/iPad, Blackberry, or Windows and Android Smartphones. ScanSnap S1100 provides an intuitive mobile document-capture concept that is consistent with every member of the ScanSnap family. The intelligent ScanSnap software (included) ensures a seamless electronic workflow by generating searchable PDFs, images, e-mail or contact data, as well as editable Microsoft Office files for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1100 captures up to eight A4 pages per minute and can also scan embossed plastic cards, ID cards, business cards or A3 documents without a hitch. “The ScanSnap S1100 smart design allows for quick processing of documents on a conference table, at a client's desk, or forwarding notes to anyone from a car, train or plane. Two intelligently designed flaps offer the option of straight feed or automatic reverse for scanning both sides. Closed, they protect the robust device during transport as does its hard finish casing. Users on the go need not worry about power cords and international plug adapters because the device does not require any – one USB cable is all that's needed. The smallest and lightest member of the Fujitsu ScanSnap family weighs a mere 350 grams and measures just 273 x 47 x 34 mm, making it compact enough to fit in almost any notebook bag” said Johni R. Jabbor, the Regional Sales Manager at Forefront Technologies.
