| If have a fi-7160 or fi-7460 you’ll notice these come with a slew of software from Fujitsu, so which do we want to use? We have found that the consumer grade "Scansnap Manager Software" produced better results than the professional "ScandAllPro" software did. It’s also MUCH simpler to configure. There is one benefit to ScandAllPro though and it’s that it will accept documents that have a length longer than A3, whereas "Scansnap Manager" just gives up at that point and cuts it off. Scanning documents longer than A3 is a rare occurrence however, so we recommend using "Scansnap Manager" for everything else. | If have a fi-7160, fi-7180, fi-7460, or fi-7480 you’ll notice these come with a slew of software from Fujitsu, so which do we want to use?
