Features
The large 5-inch touch screen with improved response allows you to view scan profiles created on your PC or smartphone as visual icons, such as saving destinations to PC folders or cloud services linked with ScanSnap Cloud. Furthermore, detailed scan settings, such as file format, color, image quality, and two-page stitching, can be configured on the touch screen, enabling the intuitive operation of the scanner.

Use the ScanSnap iX2500 on any office floor or a rental coworking space with your own settings and save destinations! By connecting a device to the ScanSnap iX2500, your usual settings and cloud save destinations are applied to the scanner, allowing any ScanSnap iX2500 to function as your personal scanner.
In addition, you can temporarily apply your usual settings to the ScanSnap iX2500 by bringing your smartphone close to it.* Instantly access your usual settings with just a smartphone. Convenient but secure short-term use is available for a shared environment.
* This function will be available in a later update.

You can easily switch users on the touch screen to display your settings and icons, allowing you to scan without hesitation, even for shared use.

The Privacy mode of the iX2500 displays profile icons on the touchscreen only while the iX2500 is connected to a PC, smartphone, or tablet. Once the connection is severed, the profile information is deleted from the iX2500 unit, and the profile icons on the touchscreen disappear. This function ensures peace of mind when using the device in public spaces or coworking spaces where it may be used by many people.

* In Privacy mode, only profiles that save data locally on your device are enabled. Profiles for saving to cloud services via ScanSnap Cloud or sending directly to email cannot be used.
ScanSnap Home for PC has a revamped Quick Menu, which allows you to select saving and integration destinations after scanning. In addition to traditional options like folder saving and email sending, new integrations with Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneNote, Notion, and iCloud have been added.*2 For Microsoft Teams, OneNote, SharePoint, and Notion, the target applications' windows are opened, making data sharing a breeze. Moreover, various cloud services linked to the ScanSnap Cloud service*3 that would enable direct saving to the cloud are also suggested on the Quick Menu.
