Key features

An optimized user experience that keeps evolving
The iX1500 is built with ScanSnap's one-touch simplicity. It increases scanning efficiency and continuously evolves to satisfy the user experience with various automation functions.

    --  Simple from start to finishTransition from scanning to using data with
        just one touch of the 4.3-inch touch screen, a first for the iX Series.
        Performing basic tasks, such as setup and Wi-Fi configuration, checking
        scanning status, and choosing save-to destinations, with the touch
        screen is easy - even for first-time users. Users can scan with
        pre-configured profiles optimized for each user's workflow. With the
        iX1500, repetitive tasks such as sorting, saving, organizing, and
        connecting scanned data with other applications are made as simple as
        possible.



    --  Create unique user profiles You can save information to specific
        destinations based on individual user preference when sharing the
        scanner among multiple(*1) users, such as family members.

    --  Connect to popular cloud services with ScanSnap CloudThe iX1500 features
        ScanSnap Cloud, which connects to your favorite cloud service to manage
        your documents, receipts, business cards, and photos. You can create
        preconfigured shortcuts right on the touch screen to send scans to a
        specific cloud, or use ScanSnap Cloud's intelligent sorting feature to
        deliver scans to the correct cloud service automatically.

One stop for all ScanSnap productivity
Users can now easily manage, edit, and utilize various types of scanned paper with the all-new ScanSnap Home interface(*2). By combining powerful ScanSnap functions into a single application, it enables you to organize documents, business cards, receipts, photos, and much more.

    --  Advanced software for total document managementScanSnap Home offers
        excellent functions to organize and search through your data using
        folders, tags, and keywords. You can now identify the digital
        information you need more quickly and easily than before.

    --  It learns and optimizes performance as you scanThe iX1500 automatically
        names and suggests titles for your scanned files based on content and
        preset naming conventions. Suggestion accuracy is improved the more
        titles are repeatedly edited, allowing users to avoid spending time on
        repetitive corrections. Edits made to company names attributed to
        scanned business cards, for instance, are reflected on successive scans
        with the same attributed company.
