Features for Productivity

For mixed size documents, I usually set maximum size and let the Auto Page Size do its job.

You should use the Automated Rotation of Documents for non specific orientation. The Fujitsu SP-1120 has such a setting and you can set it up in the driver.

As you would expect, you can run this scanner with the White page detection . You can enable it from the driver.

Quality of images

Remember the time when you had to use photoshop for scans? Especially on the Fujitsu SP-1120 the Background Smoothing is an image enhancement feature you should use.

I preffer using the Image Edge Fill setting for text documents. I would not use it for photos though

Straightening documents automatically is possible with the Fujitsu SP-1120. Luckily, the Document Allignment feature will allign most images quite well.

Hole Punch Removal is a feature that is not installed on the Fujitsu SP-1120. I would have preffered it was active.|Would you buy a scanner that is missing the Hole Punch Removal setting as it is the situation with the Fujitsu SP-1120.

The Streaks Filtering setting is often sold on higher end equipment . The device we are reviewing here is missing Streaks Filtering .

Extra Features

When scanning fragile documents, this Manual Feed Mode setting will help you scan safely with the Fujitsu SP-1120.

If you wish to operate the scanner with the Bar Code Discovery feature, you ‘ll be in for a shock. The Fujitsu SP-1120 does not have the barcode recognition tool.

On the Fujitsu SP-1120 the Separate Documents Automatically function is missing. That reduces the efficiency a great deal.

I can’t imagine this scanner without the Optical Character Reading setting, as I tend to use it quite a lot these days.

I would have loved a Field OCR feature. It’s not available on the Fujitsu SP-1120 scanner.
