Customer Reviews
No-go for Mac 
2008-10-14
I was assured that this scanner would work easily with the Mac. It did not. Defaults were impossible to change. Sometimes, the desktop image would not appear and the computer has to be re-booted in order for the scanner to work. There was no proper software for the scanner to work with the Mac and the technician apologized and admitted that they are not up-to-date in servicing Macintosh computers.

Saw it at the Dr's office and told myself I need to get that. It works wonders with scanning directly into a file. I really like it.
Scanner not as stellar as reviews 
2008-10-06
I purchased Pentax scanners for my employees to submit their commercial building surveys while in the field. This type of scanner is not adequate for 30-40 pages at a time. It should be used for scanning items that are much shorter in length. My employees have been having problems with the scans being light colored and can't seem to get the software to work correctly to make a pdf file that opens at the correct scale on my end. At any rate, it's fine for short scans and technically savvy end-users, but is not a miracle product.
Works as advertised 2008-10-06
I use this product to scan receipts while I travel. It works flawlessly and fits easily into my computer bag.
Perfect for traveling 2008-10-06
The Pentax DSmobile 600 scanner is perfect for traveling. The scanner packed neatly in my laptop bag. Since it does not have it's own power cord, there was one less cord to pack and untangle. I used it recently when visiting my mother to help her organize her paperwork. I was able to scan birth certificates and other important papers for safe keeping. The only disappointment was scanned pictures are not in color.
Great scanner! 2008-09-24
This powerful, compact, lightweight 600-dpi color scanner is combined with dynamic software to provide exceptional quality scanning and easy management of documents and photos. The DSmobile 600 is a direct replacement for the DSmobile USB but provides higher resolution, high-speed USB 2.0 interface, and additional software that will enhance and simplify your scanning needs.
Good for what it is 
2008-09-22
The scanner is a travel scanner and doesn't pretend to be more. If you want high quality picture scans go get a high quality picture scanner. If you want a good, light-weight scanner for documents that is easy to use, then feel confident buying this one.
Great product 2008-09-16
The scanner works as advertised. Was scanning within minutes of taking it out of the box. Lets you easily scan multiple pages into one document. I travel extensively and it's light weight and takes up very little space in the suitcase. I was afraid I might have TSA issues with it, but it goes right thru the xray and they've never asked to see it. Well worth the money.
Mobile scanner 2008-09-15
This scanner functions quite well and performs the tasks it was purchased for with no problems.
