I had the previous ScanSnap model. I loved the thing but just sold it on eBay to help pay for a new MacBook. The day after I sold the ScanSnap Fujitsu released a new model for the Mac, ScanSnap S500M.

I might want to get this new ScanSnap but I would like to be able to use it both on OS X and from within Windows XP/Vista running on Parallels. For some reason by default Fujitsu 'criples' these scanners so the Mac version will run only on Mac and the PC version will run only on Windows. Does anyone know any way to hack these or somehow make these scanners run on both platforms??? I had the previous ScanSnap model.

I'm not sure if there's anyway to get the Mac versions of the scanners to work with Windows, but I know of a way to use the PC versions of the Fujitsu scanners on a Mac. The Japanese drivers don't seem to care if the scanner is a PC model or Mac model, so you have to install the Japanese drivers and then use Pacifist to extract the contents of the US driver and copy over the English string files.

Unfortunately, I don't know if this works the other way around. You could try installing the Japanese Windows drivers, but I don't know if everything will be in Japanese or if it's even possible to copy over the English strings.

Duplex scanning Duplex scanning is a feature of computer scanners and multifunction printers (MFPs) that allows the automatic scanning of a sheet of paper on both sides. Devices without this capability can only scan a single side of a sheet of paper at a time. In general, duplex scanning is achieved on multifunction printers using a Reversing Automatic Document Feeder (RADF). Duplex scanning is achieved on computer scanners by either RADF or by single pass duplex scanning using two cameras; one for the front side of the document and one for the back side of the document. On MFPs, it is common to find duplex scanning on devices that also have duplex printing capabilities.

JPEG In computing, JPEG is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital photography (image). The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality. JPEG compression is used in a number of image file formats. JPEG/Exif is the most common image format used by digital cameras and other photographic image capture devices; along with JPEG/JFIF, it is the most common format for storing and transmitting photographic images on the World Wide Web. These format variations are often not distinguished, and are simply called JPEG. Document feeder (ADF) In multifunction or all-in-one printers, fax machines, photocopiers and scanners, an automatic document feeder or ADF is a feature which takes several pages and feeds the paper one page at a time into a scanner or copier, allowing the user to scan, and thereby copy, print, or fax, multiple-page documents without having to manually replace each page.

On most copiers, you have a choice of scanning on the flatbed or platen (the 'glass') or through a document feeder. The vast majority of fax machines have an ADF, allowing the unattended sending of multi-page faxes. Due to the ubiquity of ADF in fax machines, some fax machine owners use the fax machine as a scanner, faxing multi-page documents to themselves.

Power supply A power supply is a device that supplies electrical energy to one or more electric loads. The term is most commonly applied to devices that convert one form of electrical energy to another, though it may also refer to devices that convert another form of energy (e.g., mechanical, chemical, solar) to electrical energy.

A regulated power supply is one that controls the output voltage or current to a specific value; the controlled value is held nearly constant despite variations in either load current or the voltage supplied by the power supply's energy source.
