Xerox Travel Scanner 100 Sheetfed Scanner Features
Paperwork done before you get home
Business is on the move and so are you. Whether you’re on a business trip or work in a mobile environment, you collect paper in your travels. Business cards, receipts, contracts, forms, and photos. And it all has to wait in an already overcrowded bag or briefcase (sometimes even pockets, wallets and purses) until you get back to your office, already burdened with a to-do list.
Who uses the Travel Scanner?
The business traveler: The “road warrior”. A serial traveler. All the tools of the office need to be in his bag, not just at his desk. The insurance adjuster: Every client has photos and forms. Every body shop has bills that need to be paid. No time to wait. They need to be scanned and sent now. The construction contractor: Plans, permits, contracts, invoices. These important documents need to be captured to keep business moving and to keep it secure.
Kofax VRS technology
The Travel Scanner 100 integrates Kofax VRS image enhancement technology into the OneTouch scanning process. VRS is the gold-standard in image improvement technology. Imperfect originals are automatically turned into perfect scans that are easier to read. OCR results are dramatically improved, file size is decreased and scans look at clear as the originals. Every page is custom corrected automatically so you can batch together clean, laser quality documents with your imperfect originals – the results are amazing.
Nuance PaperPort
PaperPort is the easiest way to turn volumes of paper into organized digital files that you can quickly find, use and share. Stop wasting time looking for paper documents scattered around your office. The Travel Scanner 100 can scan documents directly to PDF files. PaperPort supports one-click creation of PDF files from Microsoft Office documents and supports Print-to-PDF using other Microsoft Windows applications. A wide range of image formats can also be converted into PDF – including TIFF, MAX, JPG, BMP and GIF.

Comments about Xerox Travel Scanner 100 Sheetfed Scanner:
I do not know much about scanners, but I travel a great deal, and needed a portable scanner for photos and documents. I have purchased a Neat Receipts scanner, primarily because it was very small and portable, but it had too many software options and the resolution was too poor for photos, so I was disappointed in it. It would probably be fine for its original intent, though, which was to scan in sales receipts and catalog them semi-automatically, and outputs in pdf only.
This Xerox device was only a fraction of an inch larger, and had photo-quality resolution. It is a tiny bit hard to feed documents and photos into it - sometimes you have to do it a couple of times to get them in stgraight, but it outputs in jpg or pdf and I think a couple more formats as well. The software is a bit confusing (especially about setting the size of the document) and the instructiuns are simply awful, but after a couple of trial-and-error attempts, it really is not too hard to use. And the quality of the output is even better than I expected.
I would recommend this for anyone who has a need like mine - small, portable, with both photo-quality (jpg) color output and pdf letter-quality black and white output available, it meets all of my needs very well.
