A very good value for money scanner, that gives excellent results for bulk scanning documents. The hopper does not have a massive capacity, but it doesn’t matter if only scanning hundreds rather than thousands of documents. The scanner is shipped with some good software that enables you to easily process the scanned documents.

This scanner is one step up from the run-of-the-mill flatbed you might buy for home or (very) occasional small office use. The most obvious difference is an automatic document feeder that is integrated into the lid and works well up to around 50 sheets of paper. I found this great for archiving away all those old paper-based notes that I will *probably* never look at again but was reluctant to throw away.
Another obvious use of the document feeder is to scan all those loose photo prints (that, realistically, will never find their way into an
album) but unfortunately this is where the feeder hits its limits. It does cope sometimes but it is definitely not possible to put a whole stack of photos into the feeder for unattended scanning. So back to using the machine as a flatbed for such purposes.
I found the image quality of the Documate 510 more than adaequate.
Unfortunately, as with most other scanners, the speed drops dramatically for higher resolutions. I do a lot of black-and-white scanning, and it is a pity that 300dpi goes so much slower than 200dpi.
Praise for the bundled software (Paperport Pro): The user interface is logical and easy to use - an example are the dialog boxes for manual duplex scanning. The one thing that is missing (or maybe I have not found it yet) is an easy way of adding an empty page to a multi-page scan. Why would anyone want to do that? Well, it helps work around a "feature" of some printer drivers when printing double- sided. If the number of pages is odd, the last page of one print-out ends up on the same page as the first page of the next one.
Finally, a hint that may help someone preserve their sanity: On my not-so-recent PC, it turned out that the scanner worked fine on the USB ports at the back of the PC but not on those at the front (where it just twitched a bit but did not scan). So if going through the (pretty decent) Xerox troubleshooting guide does not make a difference, there is another thing to try.
