Additionally, the latest introduction into the award-winning suite of Fujitsu ScanSnap scanning solutions includes enhanced utility features with the addition of Quick Menu, enabled in the ScanSnap Manager V4.1 task panel.

"Fujitsu's workgroup scanners continue to evolve as we glean new insight from our customers on their priorities for desktop scanning," said Victor Kan, vice president of sales and marketing, Imaging Products Group, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "The ScanSnap S510 is another testament to Fujitsu's commitment to maintaining a foothold on the needs and expectations of the document imaging market. Focusing on the support of Windows Vista for our award-winning ScanSnap scanner solutions will enable the seamless transition to the Windows operating system for our users."

The Fujitsu ScanSnap Manager, the application and software interface used with ScanSnap for adjusting scanner settings and creating custom scan profiles, has added a Quick Menu. Now, in addition to working in the background monitoring operations such as loading documents on the ADF and pressing the SCAN button, the Quick Menu provides additional control to the user, thus creating greater scanning versatility. The additional features allows the user to easily direct scans to a folder, to email, to print and to a number of Microsoft® Office applications such as Word, Excel® and PowerPoint®. With increased scanning options, the Quick Menu brings together the various scanning applications for quick and easy navigation. For example, attaching scanned content directly into an email has been made easier by providing the option to preview the scan job, to change the attachment file-name, and to password protect it for added security.

Additionally, the custom-built OCR software application within the Fujitsu ScanSnap solution, ABBYY FineReader®, has added another linguistic layer in the ScanSnap S510 version to include Korean. The program, which accurately retains formatting and layout of documents, now supports an even wider range of recognition languages. As with the previous versions, ABBYY FineReader for ScanSnap allows users to convert documents into editable formats such as Word, Excel or PowerPoint, all with a push of a button.

The new Fujitsu ScanSnap scanning solution maintains all of the features and capabilities of the ScanSnap S500, including its popular business card scanning features, authentic one-touch Acrobat PDF generation, a 50-page automatic document feeder, high optical resolution up to 600 dpi, high-speed duplex color scanning, at speeds of up to 18 pages per minute (ppm) for single-sided documents and 36 images per minute (ipm) for double-sided documents, automatic blank page detection and deletion, and automatic de-skew and image rotation. In addition, the scanner comes standard with an updated version of the ScanSnap Organizer version 3.1, CardMinder version 3.1, and ScanSnap Manager version 4.1 for enhanced organization and ease of use, as well as the new version of Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard, allowing users to easily create searchable authentic PDF files with the touch of a button.

The standard Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 product bundle also includes a ScanSnap scanner "Carrier Sheet," that allows the user to digitize up to A3 and B4 sized documents in addition to A4, B5, A5, B6, A6 documents and business cards. The Carrier Sheet allows safe scanning of delicate documents such as photos and fragile papers.

Additional Fujitsu ScanSnap S510 Features

The ScanSnap scanner's "always on" convenience, connectivity, and small footprint allow it to sit comfortably on any desk. The ScanSnap reinvented the "one-button" scanning approach, which eliminates elaborate scanning applications and the need for cumbersome driver interfaces. Its appeal for business professionals is based on its ability to provide a simple, fast, easy to use method for converting information contained on paper into digital Acrobat authentic PDF files at the touch of a button. The resulting files can then be stored in the Windows operating system on a local PC or network allowing the user to store, organize, share, protect, print, search, email and interact with it as they would with any other electronic file. Additional innovative Fujitsu ScanSnap scanner features include:

o PDF "Thumbnail" viewing
