Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Product only as good as Seller
My first Docupen R700 was defective out of the box. Thank goodness I purchased it from DataVision through Amazon. Planon's tech support was at the ready to help me download all new software, etc. to determine why my scans were severely distorted. They concluded that the product was defective and recommended replacement.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great option

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - very useful device
As a court reporter for Alberta Justice, I have found the Docupen scanner an invaluable tool. Many documents are filed and quoted from in court. In times past, I would have to ask the lawyers for the documents they quoted from.
