Applications
The PaperPort Vx was introduced by Visioneer in the mid-1990s as one of the first consumer-oriented desktop document scanners designed specifically for paper management software. It used a serial RS-232 connection at a time when parallel-port and early SCSI scanners dominated the market, targeting home and small-office users running Windows 3.x or Windows 95/98 on PCs with available COM ports. The scanner was bundled with Visioneer's PaperPort software, which allowed users to drag scanned pages into desktop document stacks — an early predecessor to modern paperless-office workflows. Today these units are sought by vintage computing enthusiasts, collectors of 1990s PC peripherals, and anyone maintaining period-correct retro PC setups that include a functioning serial port.
This Visioneer PaperPort Vx sheet-fed document scanner (P/N 85-0022-001) has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in service. The off-white housing shows light surface wear and scuffing consistent with normal use. The 6-foot DB9 RS-232 serial cable is included and appears intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
