Portable scanners with ADFs, then, are much more suitable for scanning multipage jobs.

And then there's multi-page sheet-feed portables, such as the Editors' Choice Epson WorkForce ES-300W, with automatic document feeders (ADFs) capable of accepting several pages (usually up to 20), allowing you to attend to other tasks as your portable scanner feeds itself. There's single-sheet devices like the iX100 that accept one page at a time and therefore require you to insert each page manually.

Portable document scanners come in two distinct flavors. Within those confines, the iX100 is an exceptional-value portable scanner. As a single-sheet manual-feed device, though, it's designed for small one- and two-page scan jobs. While the ScanSnap iX100's hardware is primarily the same, its software bundle is entirely different, and is perhaps one of the most comprehensive collections of portable document scanner utilities we've ever seen. The iX100 is an update to a 2014 Editors' Choice product by the same name that, at the time, was one of the most impressive portable document scanners we'd ever seen. The Fujitsu ScanSnap iX100 ($229) is a manual-feed portable document scanner designed for capturing data to your laptop, smartphone, or tablet on the road.
