fujitsu fi-6130 scanner

Vuescan (commercial) is truly great for scanning and restoring/correcting photo's and negatives. I do have a license and use it mostly for scanning negatives.

In my experience VueScan is not so great for document scanning. The screen is rather bulky and I run into issue with duplex scanning (ADF) every single time. (experienced this issue with the Fujitsu Fi-6130 and Canon P-215)

So for document scanning I'd grab SANE with NAPS2 any day.

Either way; It's worth a try since SANE and NAPS3 are both free, comes OCR, ADF and duplex support, PDF, etc.

Someone recommended me ExactScan (also commercial), but I haven't tried that one yet.

You can try using the Image Capture app within macOS to see if it will automatically work with the scanner. Otherwise see if VueScan has support for that scanner:

I use the SANE driver (free and opensource) combined with NAPS2 scan application (also free).

This is how I did it.

VueScan definitely can do it...
