Can this scan different size paper and receipts that the more expensive scansnap can do?

Yes, absolutely. However, for what I've experienced in the short time I've had it and as I saw in Youtube you should badge them by size, in another words: don't mix legal size, regular size paper, business cards, receipts etc. The scanner does a great job recognizing the paper. I've scanned over 150 PDF documents and dozens of business cards without problem. Another great feature, is that if the scanner jams (for some reason as: old or stappled document), it will saves the pages that were already scanned and ask you to reset the door of the scanner and continue. This helps you save a lot of time or having to re-start a scan. Hope this helps. Yes, absolutely.

Yes. The width has to be standard size down to small receipts. The length of the docent is unlimited.

The short answer is yes. But, some of the commercials for the more expensive scanners show multiple sheets of different sizes being scanned as a stack. While the 1300i can handle stacks, multiple sheets, it's best with a single paper size. There are adjustable guides to accommodate one size at a time. if you mix wide and narrow papers, with the guide usually set for the wide sheets, any narrow sizes in the stack can get skewed. The unit does compensate for slight skewing, but there are limits. So the long answer is scan similar sizes together adjusting the guides to accommodate the paper width. Length doesn't matter. Also, on excellent feature is that when multiple sheets are scanned together, they are put in the same file. I usually (always) scan to pdf.

I have only used it for documents. But I did put a few receipts and half size sheets of paper through which it scans but saved as a full sheet of paper. I can say it scans both sides simultaneously. Best of luck!

If you mean will it accept and scan something that large I do believe it will, depends on how large the platen area of the scanner is. As for reducing it you will need to use an app such as Photoshop to reduce it later. Hope that helps.

The software is very user friendly. It scan business cards, greeting cards, credit cards, licenses, etc very nicely (both sides in one pass). I am not sure how it will do on receipts since they are faily narrow. It will most likely work fine, but you will probably have to guide it with your hands during the scan.

Yes. I primarily scan receipts, business cards, and office paperwork but you can scan pictures as well.

No - in that it doesn't have a document feeder to stack them in (at least that's delivered as standard equipment). However, if you have a number of small pictures, and don't mind them all together in one image (collage fashion) - Then sure, whatever fits on the platter, can be scanned in one pass.

In certain situations are wrinkled paper I do not think it will work. The scanner will most likely jam.

No. Scanner is marginal and only scans single pages. Scanner is in the trash.

You will be able to scan legal size document from the sheet feeder, but not on the glass bed. Hope this helps.

Unlike other ScanSnap scanners, this model does not support duplex in hardware. The software has a continuous scanning mode that allows you time to flip the pages and get all sides into the same scan. It's not the same thing, but it is sufficient.

It will scan just about everything. You need select the advanced menu if your stuff is odd sized. I have scanned odd sized slides, the old style film strips, negatives of odd size as well. there are some trade offs- since it only comes with the 3 presized holders, it is a bit finicky, but it works.

I wouldn't know as it doesn't come with any software. Just the device, a cloth to wipe the reading glass. It's really only good for business cards or small articles like receipts or an article in a journal. Not for full page scanning.

I am not aware of this capability. It's VERY easy, however, to set up a folder for each vendor and file the receipts within. I have had this scanner for over 3 months and literally use it on a daily basis and could not be more pleased with its performance and features.

Hey Wendy, I haven't used a ScanSnap scanner but my understanding is that it is simply a scanner that comes with some OCR software. I believe you can create searchable PDFs out of it. It sounds like you're wanting to create expense reports which is one of the niche features of Neat Receipts. I have one of their older refurbished scanners and the included software will scan receipts and grab the relevant data out them (date, payee, amount, etc.) I only used it a couple times and it seemed to work okay. Eventually, the Neat Receipts software frustrated me so much that I gave up on it and just used their scanner to create PDFs. Neat Receipts may be a better option for you though, but be sure to read the reviews first. NeatReceipts Mobile Scanner and Digital Filing System

Yes, it will scan multiple pages from the feeder as long as the pages aren't crumpled.

In my opinion, No it would not. This device is limited in what it scan in terms of paper size and it is very difficult to judge what you actually did scan until you actually view it on your computer or lap top.

No, the width of the scanner is only 8.5" so it is best for scanning standard-sized pages.

The software that comes with this scanner isn't that sophisticated--I'd be shocked if it could do that. I often scan multiple receipts at the same time, and at no time does it treat them as separate entities, it just crops the entire main image. If you think about it, the scanner would have to know whether or not you were scanning a photo in order to determine if there were multiple photos present, since any standard document has large gaps of white that could fool the scanner into thinking it was multiple images. Since that's a software function anyhow, you can do that in most any other image handling software package like ACDSee, Photoshop, etc. The software that comes with this scanner isn't that sophisticated--I'd be shocked if it could do that.
