Hi All,

I need to scan a huge pile of documents I would like to scan. Does anyone use a document scanner they really like?

I haven't used a mechanical document scanner for personal use in quite a while, but I have scanned a good deal of documents via either the Scannable app, TurboScan or the numerous other scan app's I've had installed. All of them worked well for me.

We are a PC office but we use Canon DR7080s. They work pretty well of course you would get a more current model as that one is a few years old.

I use a ScanSnap ix500. Love it.

I just googled it, and it looks pretty good! :) That should suit your needs and the Amazon listing I found for it said Mac and PC, and the price was a fairly reasonable 400. :) (The one I mentioned would be quite a bit more)

EDIT: Nevermind. I misread our post and posted iOS scanner apps
