#8 in Scanner · Rated 4.6
High‑volume production scanner for demanding workflows
The Fujitsu fi‑8170 is a production‑grade multi‑feed capable sheetfed scanner designed for large volumes and sensitive workloads. It features fast duplex speeds (often around 70 ppm in typical configurations), a substantial feeder capacity, and robust image processing. Built for reliability in business environments, it supports TWAIN/ISIS drivers and integrates into enterprise workflows with Kofax VRS compatibility. While its price and space requirements aren’t ideal for small teams, it’s a strong choice for departments or service bureaus that need high throughput, durable feeders, and strong long‑term total cost of ownership.
