ScanSnap Home, ScanSnap S1300, DT3

Does now a wonderful longlasting romance come to its end? There is being offered an upgrade from ScanSnap Manager 7.2L51 onto ScanSnap Home. But this ScanSnap Home would not support the ScanSnap S1300 scanner. So, I afraid, its a quest of time, until the S1300 will not longer work as DT3s true companion as it did for the last 13 years. Does somebody here has any experience with operating the S1300 as DT3s scanner under the new circumstances?

I am refusing the upgrade.

Some years ago we had the reverse situation: Fujitsu had being ceased to support the S1300 with updates. So we were at that time facing to fail at the 64 bit hurdle. Unfortunately, now probably the new times will finally bring the S1300 to its planned obsolescense.

Have you tried Hamrick’s VueScan…

My Scansnap S1100 still works with ScanSnap Manager 7.2 and I have no plans to update that software. What’s stopping you from not updating and keeping status quo till things really don’t work? (or upgrade to new software and buy new hardware now, which I’m not willing to do yet).

Start at their download center for “unsupported” hardware: ScanSnap Software Downloads : Fujitsu Global

I scan all my documents with my S1300 to DropBox and then use Hazel to move it to my inbox. Have upgraded with no problems so far.

I’ll try it. But, attention: S1300 != S 1300i

Just reporting what I saw. I have neither scanner here. :slight_smile:

You are right. I have indeed a S1300i.

But all it needs if scanning to a folder, then it should be possible

Surprise, surprise! There is an update for ScanSnap Manager 7.2, that continues supporting S1300:

And once again the vintage Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 – those one without the i – seems to be left behind by Fujitsus successor Ricoh: Image Scanner Software ScanSnap Home | Global | Ricoh Does someone of you have experiences in integration the S1300 into the DT3 workflow by using Hamricks VueScan? I’m looking forward to your reports.

What specifically doesn’t work?

At the moment everything works. The S1300 is yet working with the original ScanSnap Manager software by Fujitsu or Ricoh. But it’s expiring at October 2024. Therefore, already now I am looking for an alternative integration of the S1300 into the scan workflow with DT3, that would be familiar to me as the ScanSnap Manager solution is.

Why aren’t you using ScanSnap Home? That’s the current software for those scanners.

It’s not suporting the S1300 without i.

Those shenanigans with versions and “bricking” older models caused me to abandon the brand.
