Doxie Pro DX400 - Wired Document Scanner and Receipt Scanner for Home and Office. The Best Desktop Scanner, Small Scanner, Compact Scanner, Duplex Scanner (Two Sided Scanner), for Windows and Mac

Ease use. Very serious friendly

This compact scanner is very easy to setup and use, with an intuitive application interface. Is is small enough to unobtrusive share desktop space.

Ive been trying to go paperless at home, but there never seems to be an end to contracts, bills, invoices, etc. that still come in paper form (and I need to keep a copy of) despite all my efforts to choose electronic delivery. I had a portable scanner before but it only fed one sheet at a time and sometimes would go in crooked so I had to redo the same page over and over again. Taking pictures with my phone was just as tedious for multipage documents and trying to stitch them together. The Doxie Pro arrived with a stack of papers I needed to scan (and have been dreading). The unit was incredibly easy to set up. Not many steps and the one page of instructions were super simple. I installed the software on an M1 Mac Mini and it recognized the device without a hitch. (Nice touch that the scanner arrived with cables for both a USB A and USB C connection to the computer.) The scanner is pretty quick (especially compared to a portable scanner) and scans both sides automatically. It also took a small stack of papers (5-10 pages at a time -- I didnt have any longer documents) easily, even when those documents had a pretty significant fold in them from the mail. The scans were clear and didnt need to be adjusted or cropped. This is my second Doxie so I knew I liked the software and it continued to perform well. Many devices just dont have great Mac support and though theres nothing fancy about the Doxie software, it did reliably work and was straightforward to understand. Set up took a total of 3 minutes and going through a stack of papers, naming them, and organizing them in my online storage took another 15 minutes. I was actually looking for more papers to scan when I was done because I couldnt believe it went by so quickly. And when I was done, really easy to unplug everything and reclaim the space next to my computer. Im almost waiting for another stack of papers to pile up to scan again. :/

The Doxie Pro is the third Doxie scanner Ive owned in the past decade and is by far the most flexible and feature-filled. It takes seconds to scan a stack of papers into Evernote, for example. I just run them through the document feeder and it automatically determines if individual pages are single- or double-sided, black and white or color, then staples them together in a pdf. Then its one click to send them to Evernote (or wherever you want to store your docs). The software is intuitive and has a very clear look & feel. The other feature I love is the direct feeder for thicker paper, photos or business cards. Instead of feeding from the front and coming out the back, it feeds in the front and comes out the front, so you can put it at the edge of your desk and not lose papers out the back. The portability, the feeders, the software and Doxies terrific customer service make this scanner an excellent choice.

Easy to set up, well written concise and easy to follow training instructions, fast and accurate. Especially great if you have a small desk or travel and would like to have a scanner with you. Highly recommend.

This is a superb scanner -- small footprint but large capacity. Scans both sides of pages and many pages at once with a separate area to scan different size/weight paper/photos. Very quick, smart, and intuitive useful software. Highly recommended.

would be nice to be wireless (wifi) like my light weight printer

Exactly as described, perfect size for travel/work and the tech software is amazing!

Solid little document scanner! Especially appreciate the auto duplex scanning and 20 sheet capacity. My biggest hurdle to staying paperless has simply been keeping up with the constant stream of incoming paper from businesses that still insist on using paper/mail in 2022. The scanning speed was a bit faster than I expected. Software is easy to use. My only negative is that it isnt wireless so it has to live with/next to a computer. At any rate I love this thing and its a fraction of the cost of the big guys scanners.

On my Doxie Pro, I already love the document feeder and the two-side scanning. I used my Old Doxie Go for over 10 years, but this suits me even better.
