Can this scanner work with a ipad/tablet computer?

The scanner is a Human Interface Device (HID), so you would need an app on the tablet to work with it. In theory, any iPad or Android tablet could work with it, but you'd need to find a 3rd party app to do that. I doubt the manufacturer of this scanner makes any apps.

Yes - it can. BTW - if you're buying a used scanner, be aware of the lack of support for Windows 7. With XP it works well.

I had mine hooked up to my iPad so I don't see why it wouldn't work with tablet or pc

I have not tried using my iPad so don't know. No it does not scan or copy. I use an LED scanner from cannon. I love this wireless printer, the best I have ever had. It is just a stand alone printer though .... Just what I wanted

A very interesting question..I just tried it and the answer is YES. This item will scan and print without a computer hookup.

No I don't believe so. In my opinion, this is a pretty basic scanner. Worth the money but needs more features.

you would need to be able to connec the silhouette with a usb so on a ipad no. if a tablet has a standard usb port and you download the software directly from the site than yes.

I found that Apple has an adapter. Haven't hooked up my scanner yet but from looking at it, it should work.

I have this device and use Mac OS Mountain Lion. The scanning feature does work as long as you install the driver (available on their website). The only feature the Mac does not allow for is the OCR feature.

It comes with a cable that has a Mini-B plug on it. So if you can do the conversion with a cable, yes it will plug into an iPhone or iPad .. The real question is, "Is there software to support the scanner?" That has yet to be determined

This great little scanner uses a USB connection to a computer. It has no internal memory, so you can't use it as a stand-alone item. It depends on computer drivers to work.

If the tablet has Bluetooth capability you are able to connect the scanner to the tablet without going through the base. You would still need the base to be able to charge the scanner but not communication. If you have any additional questions feel free to contact Marcus at 888-237-8525.

Depends on how you arrange you keyboard/monitor. If it was for myself, I would say no. The side where the PC tower goes, as well as the slot above it is not big enough for a printer scanner.

I can't answer if the scanner works with an iphone. I use it with an ipad mini and it was very easy to set up. You can go to there web site to find out if it will work with the iphone. I would bet it does. http://us.ute.com/products_info.php?pc1=49&pc2=256&rbu=5&pid=944

I am waiting until I see this answer. I would like to buy this scanner if compatible.

Hi, As much as I've used my scanner it has always only worked when connected to my computer. I have the portable model and I'm not sure how the desktop works.
