Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 Deluxe document scanner

The Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 Deluxe is a duplex document scanner built around a CCD sensor for reliable colour fidelity. It handles paper sizes up to 8.5 by 14 inches and feeds sheets automatically at 20 pages per minute. Windows users running XP through Windows 7 can reduce paper clutter and create searchable PDFs with the bundled software suite.

Sustained scanning throughput and thermal behaviour

Rated at 20 pages per minute or 40 images per minute in duplex mode, the scanner maintains this rate across multi-page batches without a separate duty-cycle figure supplied. Power draw stays below 35 VAC while operating and drops under 4.5 watts in sleep mode, so heat output remains modest during long archiving sessions. The AC 100 to 240 volt input tolerates global voltage ranges without an external adapter.

USB 2.0 interface practical limits

The sole data connection is USB 2.0, which caps real-world transfer speed well below the scanner’s 600 dpi optical resolution potential for large jobs. Maximum document length of 14 inches is supported, but the host must supply sufficient USB power and a compatible driver stack limited to Windows 2000 Professional through Windows 7 32-bit editions. No Mac or modern Windows drivers are included.

Questions about this item

How much power does the ScanSnap S1500 draw when scanning continuously and when left idle overnight?

The scanner uses less than 35 watts while operating and drops below 4.5 watts in sleep mode, so all-day use adds minimal load to a standard 100–240 V supply.

Which connection and operating system does the S1500 require to run its bundled ScanSnap Manager and Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Standard?

It connects through a single USB 2.0 port and supports Windows 7, Vista, XP 32-bit and Windows 2000 Professional; no separate power brick is needed beyond the built-in AC inlet.

Will the S1500’s CCD sensor and 600 dpi optics still capture clear text from worn receipts and old legal-size contracts?

Yes — the CCD element at 600 x 600 dpi optical resolution reads fine detail on documents up to 8.5 x 14 inches, and the duplex ADF handles mixed sizes without manual re-feeding.
