[Notes]
There might be other limitations based on cloud services and contract type. The following limitations will be applied when available capacity of the cloud service or number of files exceed the limit.


Maximum number of files When using ScanSnap Connect Application (iOS or Android OS), the file limit is set at 10,000 files, and so lists which have more than 10,000 files cannot be displayed. In addition, if the number of files in a folder increases, then performance to display a list may be deteriorated and become slow. When the number of files is becoming large, it is recommended to create another folder in ScanSnap Organizer (Windows® or Mac OS), and limit the number of files stored in a folder to 500 files.
Maximum file size for each transaction Limitations based on OS (Desktop app)
  • ScanSnap Organizer (Windows® or Mac OS)
    Maximum file size for each transaction depends on desktop apps of cloud services. ScanSnap Organizer has no limitation on the file size for downloads or uploads.

  • ScanSnap Connect Application (iOS or Android OS)
    Maximum file size for both upload/download is 2GB. However, when using OneDrive, the size for upload is limited to 100 MB.

*The maximum file sizes shown above are applicable only when available space of cloud service is equal to or greater than file size.
Target file type PDF / JPEG
Available storage space required on the cloud service side Same as the file size of the scanned data targeted for sync.
Expected line speed/bandwidth Recommended environment: Broadband internet connection (*1)
In the case of wireless, stable line of IEEE 802.11n(2.4GHz/5GHz) or later.
Others Windows's reserved words such as nul, lpt1, com1, aux, prn cannot be used as folder name.

*1 Put a check on "Synchronize On WiFi Only" in "ScanSnap Sync Setting" (default setting is "on") if you would like to sync only while connecting via broadband connection(WiFi Connection). It prevents unexpected data transmission with the other connection(3G, 4G etc.).
