Product Description
The Strobe XP 450 USB is a fast, simplex scanner that can be connected to any computer or laptop quickly and easily via the hi-speed USB 2.0 interface. Designed to ease the pain of a paper intensive workspace, the Strobe XP 450 USB is an extremely efficient paper management and productivity tool. The Strobe XP 450 USB has a resolution of 600 x 1200 dpi with 48-bit color and includes a built-in 50-page automatic document feeder (ADF) that can scan 20 pages per minute. The ADF can handle paper and photos from business cards (2" x 3.5") up to legal size documents. The scanners dimensions are 6" (d) x 13.25" (w) x 12.25" (h) giving it one of the smallest footprints of any ADF scanner on the market.The Visioneer Strobe XP 450 USB features a single OneTouch button that initiates the scanning process. When the button is pushed, the Strobe XP 450 USB launches the PaperPort software and instantly places the document on the ScanSoft PaperPort Deluxe Desktop ready for use. Users can file the images, print them, use the included software to convert documents to editable text, insert images into Web pages or share them with anyone via email or fax. Through the OneTouch software, users can set the scanner to send the scanned image to any PaperPort Link automatically after scanning.

 Excellent workgroup scanner September 17, 2003

I've reviewed and used many scanners over the years. Each is inevitably a compromise. However, the Strobe XP450 is by far the best that I've tried so far in its price range. It's fast. relatively resistant to jamming, easy to set up, and has less skewing than most automatic sheet feeders. It's also very compact and reliable. Highly recommended. I use it in a law office setting and it's been one of the major reasons that I have been able to move away from paper based files toward a much more efficient digital law office.
Finally a quiet reliable small footprint scanner February 29, 2004

Thia is a great scanner. It is quiet, fast, and the document feeder works flawlessly. Be careful during installation. After installing Paperport, it continues on to install the driver without pause. The last screen tells you to connect the USB cable before selecting the 'finish' button. If you are not reading the screens, you could miss this and have to uninstall and reinstall which is messy. Other than that I highly recomment this. I have gone through 3 HP and one Canon scanner before finding one that fits the bill perfectly.
 XP 450 Constantly loses Connection April 9, 2004

I use this in a law office/buiness setting with an IBM laptop running Windows 2000. The problem is if I do not scan something for about an hour, the scanner loses its connection and you have to turn it off and back on to get it to scan. A royal pain in the you now what since the power button is on the back. I called Visioneer support and they said "That is the way it works - if you do not use it it loses connection." I think that is BS. My HP did not. If someone else has problem and a fix, let me know. Otherwise, our office just nixed buying 50 more of these since I was the test case.
EXCELLENT SCANNER November 18, 2004

I FIRST STARTED USING VISIONEER PRODUCTS IN 1996. THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF VISIONEER'S SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO PRODUCE LOW COST GOOD LOOKING SCANNERS THAT TAKE UP LITTLE ROOM AND ARE EASY TO USE. THIS MACHINE WORKS WONDERFULLY, AND IS CLEARLY COMPATIBLE WITH ADOBE AND WORD PERFECT. IF YOU ARE USING THIS FOR YOUR LAW PRACTICE SPEND THE EXTRA DOUGH ON THE XP450. THE FEDERAL COURTS ARE GOING PAPERLESS AND THIS IS THE TOOL TO KEEP UP.
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE INSTALLATION CALL THEIR TECH SUPPORT STAFF THEY ARE VERY HELPFUL. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES FOR SOMEONE TO ANSWER BUT THEY WILL GUIDE YOU THRU THE PROCESS. MY PAST PROBLEMS WITH VISIONEER PRODUCTS WAS GETTING THE COMPUTER TO FIND THE SCANNER AND THE FIX INVOLVED THE REMOVAL OF FILES FROM PREVIOUS SCANNERS.
 Great hardware, horrible support December 29, 2004

I have used PaperPort/Visioneer scanners for close to a decade, and loved them all. For some reason, though, their code gets worse and worse and their "support" simply does not exist.
For some reason, in order to install a new scanner, you have to remove all vestiges (even hidden ones) of the prior scanner software and drivers. Forget installing TWO scanners (I have both a Visioneer flatbed and a Strobe XP 450).
Is it too much to ask to get support for an item that costs $650?
