Can it scan books and passports?

Yes. The flatbed platen handles bound pages, passports and ID cards that a feeder cannot take.

Does it need a power outlet?

Not always. It supports USB bus power, so a laptop can run it without a wall adapter, though a powered USB port is safer for steady scanning.

What resolution does it scan at?

Optical resolution is 600 dpi in 24-bit color. That is fine for documents and forms but limited for photos or fine print.

What software comes in the box?

PaperStream IP and PaperStream Capture are included, plus PaperStream Click Scan for quick jobs. PaperStream Capture Pro is a separate premium option.

Does it work with a Mac?

No. The listed operating system support is Windows only.

How fast is the feeder?

The quoted speed is about 1.3 seconds for a color A6 page at 200 dpi on the flatbed. The feeder is meant for short stacks rather than high-volume batches.

Our take on the Ricoh fi-70F Flatbed Scanner

The Ricoh fi-70F is a compact flatbed scanner with a built-in automatic document feeder, aimed at desks that need both bound-page and stack scanning. Its coverless flatbed scans a color A6 page in about 1.3 seconds at 200 dpi, and one-touch buttons start common jobs. Optical resolution is 600 dpi, and it runs over USB, with a USB-power option for laptop use. Against feeder-only portables it adds a glass platen for books and passports; against larger office flatbeds it trades speed and paper capacity for a small footprint. Owners like the size and the PaperStream software; some find the feeder capacity and 600 dpi ceiling limiting for heavy batches or fine detail.

What reviewers say

Reviewers treat the fi-70F as a well-built compact scanner that handles both flatbed and feeder jobs. The fast coverless platen and simple one-touch operation draw the most praise. Complaints center on the modest feeder capacity and the 600 dpi limit for detailed scans.

What people mention

FootprintPraisedReviewers note it takes little desk space for a unit with both a platen and a feeder.
Feeder capacityCriticisedThe automatic feeder holds small stacks, so long batches need refilling.
ResolutionCriticisedThe 600 dpi ceiling is called out as too low for fine detail and photo scanning.
SoftwareMixedPaperStream tools are seen as capable, but the best capture features sit in a paid Pro upgrade.
SetupPraisedBuyers describe getting it running over USB as quick and trouble-free.
