I have posted about how the Fujitsu ScanSnap is ready for Lion, but what about some of the other popular scanners for going paperless? What is their status on Mac OS X Lion? Let’s find out.
NeatDesk
It looks like NeatDesk for Mac has been updated for Lion. You need to make sure you have at least NeatWorks for Mac 3.5.4 and you should be good to go.
Canon imageFORMULA P-150
I haven’t seen any reports of the Canon P-150 not working on Lion, but when I go to Canon’s Mac Compatibility list or the P-150 product page, I don’t see Lion support or any drivers available. Do you have a P-150? Please leave a note in the comments and let us know how it is going.
Update: Reader Toralf pointed out that the Lion drivers have been posted as of 11/15/2011. You can download them here.
Doxie
Doxie, according to this forum post is fully compatible with Lion. Make sure you grab version 1.4 of the Doxie software.
Epson GT-S50
Like the Canon, the Epson GT-S50 doesn’t actually list Lion drivers on their drivers page, but when you go through the Lion wizard thing for the scanner, it takes you to this page, which explains how to get updated Lion drivers. If you use the Epson GT-S50 on Lion, please leave a note in the comments with how it is going.
That’s a roundup of four of the most common scanners that DocumentSnap users use. If you use another one, let us know in the comments how the upgrade has gone for your scanner.
