Product as described

I bought a Fujitsu fi5110EOX scanner in 2005 and liked it so much I bought a second one used in 2017. Both finally succumbed to rubber roller rot by 2024. The fi5110EOX had been a great scanner for the price, despite its paper-feeding quirks, and I figured that the similarly priced ScanSnap iX1600 would be a suitable replacement 19 years later. The first thing I scanned flew through the iX1600 so fast I thought something was wrong. Nope! It's many times faster than the fi5110EOX. Summary: 1) Faster scanning then many, even commercial grade printer-scanners costing thousands of $. 2) Scans much straighter than the fi5110EOX, even for narrow receipts. 3) Scans thick stacks of normal paper and NEVER misfeeds. Really! 4) A stack may contain a mixture of different size sheets - it still feeds straight without jamming 5) Scans thicker media than the fi5110EOX, even stacked 6) Cannot handle stack with a mix of different thicknesses (that's asking too much) 7) I haven't tested scanning from underneath - haven't needed it 8) The software included with the iX1600 works so well that I actually use it. (I gave up on the fi5110EOX software and used 3rd party (VueScan) software instead). Put anything in the hopper, press scan on the front panel, and it selects b/w or color appropriately. I only use VueScan when I want to set scanning parameters very specifically - which is seldom. 9) The front touch display panel is easy to use (and I'm hard to please). When I feed it something inappropriate (like an envelope with the flap unsealed), the scanner will finish scanning the it, then stop, give a warning, and provide a choice of continuing, or quitting (with the option to save the scan just done). Very convenient. 10) Goes into sleep mode automatically, unlike the fi5110EOX which kept the scanning lamp on unless I closed the lid. 11) I don't like the software's default choice of file naming (month-day-year). I would prefer year-month-day. A minor complaint. I would buy it again and definitely recommend it.
