Sidenote: I also downloaded the ScanSnap Manager on that page, but it apparently is redundant and unnecessary.
#Update scansnap driver install#
Download and install the ScanSnap Installer for the iX500 ( direct download link).Delete everything in C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\PFU.Delete everything in C:\Program Files (x86)\PFU.Uninstall the ScanSnap manager software that came with the s1300.Unplug the scanner (just the USB connection to the computer).There were a few extra steps I took just to be extra careful: I personally had success using the software for the iX500. So the solution is actually really kind of stupid: use the software for a newer model. The Solution – Newer Software Exists!Īpparently the problem is that the software for older models is old and unsupported, and Fujitsu isn’t planning on releasing any updates. I can’t tell you how many times I tried re-installing the software just to get the same results. Its software just didn’t want to play nicely with Windows 10, and even the ScanSnap Support Tool kept telling me something like “Driver is not installed. The little S around my scansnap manager would stay red with a cross through it. Whenever I would connect the scanner to my computer, Windows itself would try to install a driver and the blue light on the scanner would just keep blinking.
The Problem – The ScanSnap s1300 is Too Damn Old These instructions will probably also work for other older models of the scanner, like the s1500. If you are reading this, then you have probably dealt with a lot of the same frustrations I did trying to get my ScanSnap s1300 working on Windows 10.
