Image Scanners ; ScanSnap Support Site; ScanSnap Support Site. The ScanSnap iX500 provides PC and Mac users an effective way to greatly reduce paper clutter, storage space, and security risks associated with unmanaged paperwork at home or the office. For even greater accessibility and usefulness, users can now scan wirelessly to a PC or Mac as well as iOS or Android mobile devices.

By changing the feeding method, using an optional Carrier Sheet/Photo Carrier Sheet, or attaching the Receipt Guide to the ScanSnap according to the document types, you can scan various documents with the ScanSnap. This section explains the type, weight, and size of a document that can be scanned with the ScanSnap. The following documents can be scanned because the scanning unit of the ScanSnap does not touch the documents.

  • Documents attached with the metals such as paper clips or staples can damage the inside of the ScanSnap. Remove the metals for scanning.

  • The ink on documents needs to dry completely before you perform a scan.

  • Do not scan documents other than sheets such as fabric, metal foil or OHP film, and also plastic cards.

  • The following types of documents must not be scanned:

    • Documents other than paper such as fabric, metal foil and OHP film

    • Documents with photographs or memo papers attached

  • When you scan picture postcards, be aware that the picture side may get damaged. It is the responsibility of the customer to scan picture postcards.

  • Be careful of the following when you scan plastic cards:

    • Cards that are bent may not be fed properly.

    • If the surface of the card is dirty with grease marks such as fingerprints, wipe the dirt off.

    • Insert the plastic card straight into the feeding section of the ScanSnap. Do not tilt the plastic card when you insert it because the plastic card may not be fed properly.

    • When you scan plastic cards with strong luster such as a gold credit card, some parts of the image may appear lighter or darker than the original.

    • When you scan embossed cards, put the embossed side down, and load the cards in landscape orientation in the ScanSnap.

  • When you scan documents folded in half, fold them tightly so that the gap between papers in the folded part is 0.3 mm (0.01 in.) or less.

Documents that you need to treat with caution
  • Documents written with pencils or crayons

    When documents written with pencils or crayons are scanned, traces of pencils or crayons may get on other documents. In addition, these documents cause the rollers to become dirty, leading to feeding errors. Clean the rollers occasionally when you scan such documents.

  • Carbonless paper

    Carbonless paper may contain chemicals that can harm the pad assy and the rollers inside the ScanSnap. Make sure you perform cleaning occasionally to maintain the scanner performance when scanning carbonless paper.

    Depending on the type of carbonless paper, the life span of the scanner may be shortened compared to scanning office paper.

  • Documents that can result in being damaged or scanned incorrectly if loaded directly in the ScanSnap

    • Documents smaller than 50.8 × 50.8 (mm)/2 × 2 (in.) (width × length)
