Product Description
Amazon.ca Product Description
You wouldn't notice the XP 200 was on your desk, if you didn't use it every day. Fitting snuggly next to your keyboard, this pint-sized sheet-fed scanner measures just 2 by 2.5 by 11 inches, yet it makes itself indispensable thanks to a wide variety of scanning options available at the touch of a single button.
Visioneer's AutoLaunch and OneTouch software work together to keep you easily organized by automatically sending your scanned images-business cards, letters, articles, or documents--directly to any application in your system with a Paper Port link. Once you press the scanner's button, just choose where you want your image sent, and whether you want it monochrome or black and white--everything else is taken care of.
All scans receive a smooth, nicely detailed 600 dpi resolution with either 48-bit color or 18-bit grayscale. The scanner includes a USB cable, along with all necessary drivers; it's compatible only with Windows 98 or higher. Visioneer provides a one-year warranty covering parts and service.
What's in the Box:
Scanner, USB cable, power supply, calibration sheets, quick install card, user's manual, CD-ROM including TWAIN, ScanSoft PaperPort Deluxe 9, ScanSoft TextBridge Pro 9 OCR and ArcSoft PhotoImpression 3.0

Tough to feed, Mar 16 2005
By NC - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Visioneer Strobe XP 200 Sheetfed scanner (Windows) (Office Product)
I have to admit, there is a lot of power to this scanner and its software and many options to choose from. But I have only had 3 out of 10 scans that were successful. The machine doesn't grab regular office paper well, and there is a plastic flap on the back that you lift up or down depending on the weight of what you are scanning, but it comes falls off when you try to adjust it, and for me it has yet to feed regular copy paper through the light weight paper setting. It is sleek and small, but the 2 large cords take away from the space saver point of view. Thanks

Use some sense....., Jan 6 2005
By EgusHdus - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Visioneer Strobe XP 200 Sheetfed scanner (Windows) (Office Product)
GOOD review follows! First, this is NOT the best choice for PERFECT scans of photos or fragile documents. It does a perfectly adequate job with snapshots and newspaper clippings, an EXCEPTIONAL job with color or B/W letter-size material. It scans for fliing/fax, OCR or color images, up to 600 DPI.If you are careful, you can easily feed sheets into this device without trouble. Be patient. It has an included software application that allows scanning multiple succesive sheets to one document, for convienence...but you can separate the pages later! Cool. Or you can group different scans to one document later. Cooler!
The image editing software is pretty darn good. Why? Because it has a decent selection of tools while not being overly complicated to use. You can use it as a desktop-type filing system too.
Some versions of the "Paperport" software export scans to PDF! If you understand what that means, you'll jump for joy...
But you know where the Strobe REALLY excels? You can quickly scan a document, drag it to Word and have about 95% immediately recognized as an editable Word file. Very little re-typing. How many times do you need some information IN your computer at school or work that exists only in a printed form? Wow! And you did this in about 30 seconds...
The Strobe is not perfect, but it does many jobs well enough to overlook that it is not the best solution of any ONE job. But it's the 90% solution for a TON of jobs! Buy it. You will not regret it.

Black line problem is easily solved, Mar 26 2007
By D Scott - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Visioneer Strobe XP 200 Sheetfed scanner (Windows) (Office Product)
The biggest problem, mentioned by another reviewer, is that sometimes a vertical black line will appear in scans and persist even with cleaning and recalibration. The problem is that ink or debris transfers from the page passing through the scanner and blocks one or more photosensors, which then causes a black line to appear. If the cleaning sheet doesn't solve the problem, it's probably ink transfer, and the following solution has worked for me. Gently moisten a cleaning sheet with absolute alcohol or isopropyl alcohol and feed it through the scanner several times. Allow the alcohol to evaporate completely, or feed a dry cleaning sheet through. Repeat if necessary. So far this has solved all my black line problems. I' grateful, because the scanner has greatly simplified my record and paper management.
