Our verdict

A very light USB scanner for single-sided sheets, cards and photos on the go. It scans one side only, and its resolution is quoted two ways.

Overview

Scanning receipts, cards and letters while traveling is what this HP HPPS100 is built for, powered over a USB cable from a laptop. Free HP WorkScan software for Windows and macOS adds auto scan, size detection, cropping and PDF or JPG output.

Light weight and bus power make it easy to carry between desks. The limit is one-sided scanning and a mismatch between the resolution in the description and in the spec table, so check that figure with HP.

Who it's for

Commuters, tax preparers and small business owners scanning invoices, cards and photos away from the desk will carry it often. Offices with large stacks or double-sided pages should choose a duplex feeder model.
