Thursday 06. January 2011 - New "One-Button" Mobile Scanner Quickly Digitizes Documents Wherever You Go; Scan Directly To The Cloud for Easy Organizing and Sharing

Fujitsu, the market leader in document imaging scanners, today introduced one of the world’s smallest document scanners, the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1100, designed with many of the same advanced functionality and productivity features of its larger, award-winning ScanSnap predecessors. The new ultra-portable scanner, weighing just over 12 ounces and featuring a new sleek style, easily fits into a briefcase or purse and digitizes your documents anywhere, and at any time – whether at home, in the office, at a cafe or traveling around the world. Fujitsu will give live product demonstrations of its new ScanSnap S1100 at the 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show (booth: 35861 South Hall Upper Level), January 6-9 in Las Vegas.
The ScanSnap S1100, designed for use with a PC or Mac, utilizes its innovative paper path system and fast front-side color scanning functionality to quickly scan anything from contracts and long receipts to business cards and plastic IDs. For complete flexibility and productivity at home or on the go, the ScanSnap S1100 is powered by a single USB cable, converts scanned data into searchable PDF files and even allows you to quickly transform your paperwork into editable Word and Excel files. Additionally, the ScanSnap S1100 enables you to scan documents directly to Evernote and Google Docs(TM) cloud services, making your paperwork and photos easy to store, share and access from just about anywhere.
“Since the launch of the first ScanSnap in 2003 we have not only consistently expanded its features for both consumers and small office professionals, but have also broadened the product lineup to include desktop, personal and now a true mobile scanning solution,” said Scott Francis, vice president of marketing, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. “Simply put, the ScanSnap S1100 takes many of the most popular and powerful features of its larger predecessors and gives users the flexibility and tools they need to be more efficient and paperless anywhere, and at anytime.”
Advanced Features to Make Scanning On-the-Go Easy!
The ScanSnap S1100 incorporates many of the powerful, advanced, easy-to-use features of its larger ScanSnap predecessors, such as the ScanSnap S1500(M) and the ScanSnap S1300, and packs them into a compact, mobile form factor, giving users even more flexibility to be productive, efficient and paperless wherever they go. Key features of the ScanSnap S1100 include:
