[Hothot Review] Is the new model "ScanSnap iX1300" that can perform two types of scanning the definitive version of the document scanner?

A new model "ScanSnap iX1300" has appeared in PFU's document scanner "ScanSnap" series. ScanSnap has a major model, a high-end model that can set up to 50 documents at once and a mobile model that scans one sheet at a time in a stick-shaped housing, but this time the iX1300 is a model located in the middle.

This model, which is the successor to the former "S1300i", is a product with a fairly unique character, such as compatibility with two reading methods. I borrowed the actual machine from the manufacturer, so I will send you a review.

In this paper, the old model "iX1500" with the same appearance is used in the exterior photographs of the current model "iX1600", which is the upper rank. Please note that the specifications other than the speed are almost the same, and there should be no particular problem in comparing the appearance and gimmick.

"ScanSnap iX1300 (FI-IX1300)". It is a model that is the successor to the conventional "S1300i". The selling price is open, and the PFU direct price is 35,200 yen. It has a neat shape with no protrusions. In addition to the white model, the black model also has a lineup of top covers. The original is ejected upward instead of in front of the main body (U-turn scan). The original can be inserted and read from the front. The original is not ejected to the back, but reciprocates and returns to the front (return scan). Reading is performed using the SCAN button on the upper right of the main unit. There is a power connector on the left side that can also be controlled from the utility on the PC side, a USB port for wired connection (USB3.2 Gen1 compatible), a slide switch for switching between wired and wireless on the back, and a WPS button Bundled items.
