ProsInstallation was easy, and the software was easy to set up. I really like that it has both the automatic document feeder and the flatbed. The PDF images are crisp and clean, very close to copier quality. from Dell.com

Pros: Multiple page documents feed easily. All pages can be scanned into one Acrobat *.pdf document.

Cons: A "PT_WIA" dialog box appears when shutting down Windows XP Professional Operating System.

The Bottom Line: When you spend a little more for quality, it rewards you for years to come. Our Xerox Documate 510 scanner scans beautifully the first time, still today.

from Shopping.com The scanner looks nice but very deceiving, I bought this scanner because of the name Xerox. I had it for about 2 months and scanned maybe 100 sheets, now it died! from Amazon.com Pros: When it worked it worked good Cons: only lasted me one and a half months Other Thoughts: Only slightly used this machine to have it now malfunction. It is aweful dealing with xerox! After 3 weeks of calls now I have to pay to ship it back and get a refurbised unit. from Newegg.com While I agree with previous posters about customer service. I completely disagree with the overall "do not buy" comments. I have had 5 different ADF scanners (priced below $500) and have had numerous problems with all, EXCEPT for the Documate 510. This product is fantastic and is one of the only true low priced ADF scanners. from Amazon.com Pros: Cost. I also found a $xx rebate form on the Xerox web site for purchases until September. Ease of Installation: Excellent documentation and step-by-step instructions. from Newegg.com Man, after reading the reviews here I thought that I had made a big mistake in buying the Xerox Documate 510. I bought it for office use at my desk, light to moderate use, mostly for document scanning. from Amazon.com On some pages the text has come out a little crooked, but the software has a one-button straightening tool that works reasonably well. It is a little annoying that you HAVE to use the included software. I'm worried about losing the disk, something that happens to me all the time, but hopefully in that case xerox will let me download the software. This scanner was $250. from Amazon.com On some pages the text has come out a little crooked, but the software has a one-button straightening tool that works reasonably well.

This scanner was $250. from Amazon.com Pros: I know this is not the place for questions. I am aware that the 510 scans only single sided. I have several documents that are 100's of pages that are double sided. from Newegg.com
