Looks like it even covers my S300M!

This is great. Glad to see hardware still supported.

Shows how Adobe is using this for driving its business model rather than true customer support. They cannot make a 64bit version of their CC 2018 installer!

Yes!- Thanks

buy a cheap unit on eBay before sells find out?

I replaced my scanner with an Epson.

Happy they did it, but that ship has sailed for me. I already shelled out more than a few bucks on a couple of aftermarket scanner packages (and finally going with ExactScan, which works great with my S1500M) so Fujitsu can stuff it. When it comes time to replace, I will be looking at other brands, as I expect them to pull a similar stunt as the macOS moves to 11 and the ARM architecture.

[ADDED] FWIW, I never used the storage/sort/filing software that came with the Fujitsu; I only used it to scan to file (PDF, usually), using my own folders & etc. virtual filing cabinet. If you used/liked Fujitsu's software for that sort of thing, it's not a knock and I'm happy they finally updated. I just think it's a telling situation and I wouldn't put my trust in them.

Yippee! Thank you Fujitsu!! Path is clearer to move to all 64 bit

Ditto. Sold my ScanSnap years ago.

I bought my S300M in what, 2004? 2007? Still going strong.

Undoubtedly the best tech purchase I've ever made.

I just wish that the Epson software was as streamlined as the Scansnap software. The Epson scanner seems to be better than the Scansnap - less misfeeds and jams.

I have an Epson 4990 Pro Photo. It doesn't work in Catalina. I've tried to update it to no avail. I'll probably have to buy the Hambrick Vuescan software. Trying all I can before I do that.

Not sure about that particular scanner, but take a look at ExactScan. I've tried a handful of after-market scanner software, and this one has worked great for me.

That works! Thanks man.

Nice work, Zoid!

I am that Masked Man.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.
