The scanner is approximately 10" wide. You can auto feed a picture through it or you can hand hold the scanner and go down the picture. The photo would have to be able to fit in the width dimension, length is not an issue. It is a great product.

No experience with scanning photos. We however scan large quantities of documents without issues of damage. The image quality is very good, but never tried with a photo. Sorry. That being said, photos tend not to be standard paper sizes and it does have the adjustable guides on the paper feeder, so I think that will help keep them lined up.

I'm going to say "yes". I scanned small old polaroids, 4x6 photos and up to 8x10. Once I transferred the photos to my PC they retained their size. However, if I choose to print one I can resize the photo to what I want. Hope this helps.

No. It only scans documents, photos, etc, that are 8 1/2 inches X 11 inches or smaller.

We're using a Sandisk 4G SD high capacity card and its working great. I think any of the SD cards work. Best to get biggest you want to buy for max pics.

I have not tried to do this, but I suspect that a) the photos may stick together and not feed well, especially if they are glossy, and b) the scan path is not very friendly to paper as heavy as photo stock.I would check HP's scanner specs to see what they say about maximum paper weight.But my best guess is no.

The scanning software has an output function which will enable you to change the final size of the scanned image. You can also use photo-editing software to reduce the image and/or crop it to your desired size. Al G

I really don't remember. But unless you have a special need for very long scans-forget about this scanner-it is junk. I returned mine. Get yourself a Fujitsu SnapScan 1500-really excellent scanner-I love it.

Thanks SO much, Liberty! I've been trying to find a scanner to preserve old photos digitally, but several are larger than 8.5x11", i.e. 11x14", so I need a bit larger glass to fit them. I expected this to be easy...not so! My old scanner is that big, but it only plugs into an old-style desktop computer, not USB2 laptop, and now I am wondering if I can find a plug adapter so I can use the old scanner for the big photos. Likely the scanner software won't recognize XP!

I have scanned a few photos with this scanner, although I usually use an Epson v600. The quality was good. I did have a couple of older photos get damaged by the feed wheel on the ScanSnap.

Limited to scanning 8 1/2 x 11 at a time. I think Can be saved as PDF. Haven't done much with it yet.

Don't know the largest available, but I have a 16gig that holds a LOT of images.Bought two of them on sale for about $100 each and they are excellent and flexible.

The largest card that we have read is a 32 GB SDHC card. So I think it would work.

It will scan 5-8 photos on the permanent memory, but the card will hold many more. I bought a memory card on sale at Walmart and it worked beautifully....

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.

Yes, you can scan any size copy. You may have to make more than one pass. For instance you can scan the 11x17 copy by making two passes, going horizontally rather than vertically.

I am scanning photos right now - the plate is immense - I've just been filling it - scanning the whole thing and then cropping individual photos out - and saving as jpg files
