I purchased the Xerox DocuMate 3125 through amazon and received it two days later thanks to Prime. I was torn between the xerox and the fujitsu. To me it seemed the Fujitsu had better software but the Xerox had better hardware. I am very glad I picked the Xerox. For me I am doing simple filing so the one touch buttons were all I needed (1 for black and white searchable pdf's going to my cans in waiting folder and 2 color with same settings).
The only thing I found lacking was an easy utility to get my scans from their default "scans in waiting" folder to their respect folders in my virtual filing cabinet. So I wrote a program to do it for me. It was written in Java so it will work with mac or windows. It is free and you can download it here where I go over my going paperless experience:
stupid amazon won't let me post hyperlink so I will spell it out...

The program renames the file, adding a date and timestamp, then places the file in its appropriate folder. With the combination of the Xerox DocuMate 3125 and my program Quick Jobs, I can file stuff way quicker than I could manually using a manual filing cabinet. And the best part is that all my documents are now "searchable" using adobe's file indexer installed on windows 7. So if I need something I just use the search bar in my virtual filing cabinet. awesome.
I have had the opportunity to use a number of desk top scanners, and for me, this is the very best unit. The scanning speed is outstanding, but really, there are a number of fast scanners on the market. Where this machine really shines is in the accuracy of the documents. The software to use this machine was incredibly easy to install. Literally 5 minutes after receiving and opening the box the machine was up and ready to use.
I have not found a machine that handles both text and pictures any better, at least in this price range.
I highly recommend this machine without hesitation or reservation.
Scanner works great. Nice that it does not take up much room when the paper holders are folded up.
Good scanner. Paper handling could be better. It doesn't handle skinny receipts well. I have to turn them sideways and if they are too long I cut them into segments and tape them to a full size sheet to scan them.
One feature I'm really excited about is that it does handle double sided scanning. Not many scanners out there can do this. This is probably the easiest scanner and the best quality I've seen in a long time. This is the best office purchase I have made all year.
If you are looking for a quick scanner that doesn't take up too much room and easily saves files to your computer - this is the scanner for you. Couldn't be happier with this purchase!
