You probably cannot scan a plastic card. It would not go around the roller. You could lift the lid and scan in on the flat bed though.

Yes you can. You just need to set that up on the scan options on your computer. I have done this with PDF format, but not sure if it works for other file formats.

It has not done so in any of my scans. In the flatbed scan you can preview and adjust the portion of the document you wish to scan. I do not know if the ADF has a preview option which may allow adjustment of the scanned area, hope this helps.

The MP830 does not come with a scanner option for scanning negatives. With Canon you usually lose the adf if a negative scanner is included.

Doubtful. It struggles with cardstock, so I don't think it could do a plastic ID card.

If you're referring to the auto document feeder, the answer is no. That can only take letter, legal, and A4 paper sizes. If you're talking about the paper trays, you can use sizes up to 5x7 in cassette 2. Larger sheets can go into the larger cassette (cassette 1). I suppose that if you carefully fed photos into the ADF for copying or scanning, that you might have some success.

Strange, I just scanned legal pages using the ADF and it worked just fine without the paper size having to be set in the Navigator app. I assumed it just scanned until it hit the end of the page and as far as I can tell the software handled it perfectly. Acrobat thinks the PDF page size is 13.59", so maybe that's an issue if you need it to know that it's actually 14", but otherwise my experience is that it's painless to scan either letter or legal via the ADF.

Yes, you can scan just about card, document, or item that can be fed through the scanner

They can be scanned, but I was able to find a local software that could be filled out on my PC and then send the form through the printer to be filled out.

This scanner is only suitable for paper upto 120 gsm thickness,for cards it is better to use a flatbed scanner

As I thought, EPSON provides software that will assist with this. I pulled this from the online manual:"You can scan a 2-sided document using the ADF. First you scan the odd-numbered pages, then you turn the document over and scan the even-numbered pages. Then you can use the Editing Page window to automatically sort the pages."Great scanner. About 10 times faster than one of those "all in one" units that I've tried.

See the picture of the description?The manufacturer suggestion is: your cards, ie: atm, credit cards, drivers license, will have to be in BETWEEN the scanner cards for it to work. Hope this helps.

You just slide the scanner across the receipt. I had no problems, but you will need to buy a memory card.

Not so far. I can scan my work badge through the wallet and my cards all work fine.

Yes they do. It scans photo stock and business cards ok, but plastic cards that are inflexible wouldn't do very well, I think.

The software is easy to use. I'm not sure about scanning business cards or other cards.

There is a USB button that will allow you to view the scanned images directly from the scanners memory card. The button activates the scanner as a removable device in Windows.
