Scanning receipts can be the best way to keep detailed financial records. While many scanners can serve this purpose, a device designed for this imaging task can save one or more users a lot of time and effort. Find out more about the ScanSnap® iX1600 Receipt Edition scanner, which features touch-screen functionality, support for multiple users, automatic data extraction capabilities and built-in connectivity with existing QuickBooks® accounts.
Touch-Screen Scanning
The iX1600 Receipt Edition has many features to increase ease of use. Touch-screen functionality can make this model more accessible for small business and home users. This scanner supports personalized icons for up to four people to make it easy to identify a user, specify a QuickBooks® account and quickly complete any imaging project.
Scanning speed is another important factor for scanning receipts. The iX1600 Receipt Edition performs double-sided scans at up to 40 pages per minute or 80 impressions per minute and has a 50-page automatic document feeder. These rates are up to 33% faster than the ScanSnap iX1500 model, which also does not have dedicated features for receipts or built-in connectivity to accounting software.
Great for Individuals & Teams
From the ability to set up personalized icons for up to four users to support for direct scan-to-cloud functionality, the ScanSnap® iX1600 Receipt Edition can be a great choice for individual users and team members. With a 2.5GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi connection and a ScanSnap Cloud® account, a single user or every member of a team can initiate scans without connecting computers or devices.
The secure cloud capture software capabilities of this scanner and other ScanSnap® models also support collaboration. With this functionality, every member of a team can reference receipts and other scanned documents anywhere at any time for maximum productivity.
Automatically Extract Data
One of the main selling points for the iX1600 Receipt Edition scanner is intelligent invoice and receipt processing. This feature uses optical character recognition technology to automatically extract data from documents into forms with editable fields. The Receipt Edition can import data directly into existing QuickBooks® accounts.
Intelligent image processing has been available as a feature of some high volume document scanner models. The iX1600 Receipt Edition extends this advanced bookkeeping functionality to individuals and small businesses.
Connect to Accounting Software
The built-in capability of the iX1600 Receipt Edition to connect with QuickBooks® is a useful feature for individual and business users who regularly need to scan receipts. Based on your need for dedicated functionality, you might prefer this model or the ScanSnap® iX1600 Chromebook® Edition designed for compatibility with the Google ChromeOS™ operating system.
A scanner model with built-in features for capturing and detecting data on receipts can be a game changer for small business and home users. When you set up the iX1600 Receipt Edition and connect this device with your QuickBooks® account, you can benefit from all of the imaging and data extraction features of this model. You can also use this device with ScanSnap® software and cloud accounts to allow for an even wider range of functionality.
