ScanSnap iX2500: Ricoh’s Fastest, Most Connected ScanSnap Scanner
The ScanSnap iX2500 (PA03860-B005) is the new flagship of the ScanSnap family and the successor to the best-selling iX1600. It scans both sides of a page at 45 pages per minute, holds 100 sheets in its feeder, and lets anyone in the office pick their own scan profile on a large 5-inch touchscreen. With Wi-Fi 6 and USB-C it scans straight to a PC, Mac, phone or cloud app, so paper invoices, contracts, receipts and photos become searchable files in seconds.
Key Features
- 45 ppm / 90 ipm duplex scanning: faster than the iX1600 (40 ppm), both sides in one pass.
- 100-sheet automatic document feeder: twice the capacity of the iX1600, ideal for large batches.
- 5-inch color touchscreen: each user picks a profile and destination with one tap.
- Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and USB Type-C: scan to PC, Mac, iPhone, Android or directly to the cloud, with WPA3 security.
- Cloud and app integrations: Box, Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint Online, Microsoft Teams, Notion, QuickBooks Online, Concur and more.
- Scans almost anything: documents, receipts, business cards, plastic cards, envelopes, 4 × 6 photos (under one second each) and long documents up to 118 in.
- Searchable PDFs and Office files: create searchable PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files automatically.
- Software included: ScanSnap Home (PC, Mac, mobile), Kofax Power PDF Standard and ABBYY FineReader for ScanSnap (Windows).
