Can the lid come off? Once off, are there any parts that stick out that would disable you from scanning oversized, rigid objects (like artwork)?

I can't say for sure. The lid is hinged externally so it may be possible to remove it. You might get in touch with the Xerox One-Touch people for a better answer. I found them to be very helpful when I was setting up my unit..

Yes the lid comes off. The edges are all smooth and don't stick out. The screen itself is slightly below a plastic lip, but I don't think would impede anything.

The lid does come off. I can see anything that would restrict you from scanning oversized objects.

Hey Gadgetgirl! I purchased this guy over a year ago and absolutely love it. It did not come damaged, and in fact, came packaged extremely well. To answer your question, yes, you can remove the top lid for extra storage. I keep all of my tools in the center. If you get it, enjoy!

Yes, you can scan with the lid open. In fact, it captures a very nice image and no black border.

The lid can be unsnapped at the hinge. It is designed to pivot open but can be removed if necessary.

Yes, the lid comes completely off. It looks like you could set a coffee cone on it.

The lid lifts off completely for scans like this. remember to unplug the connecting cable first!

Jay, I'm about 99% sure it does not come off. I am almost certain the feeder is actually part of the machine.....a unibody kind of situation. The scanner is dynamite...fast, clear scans and easy to use. I have Two of them at our medical office and they are excellent. For the price, it's a steal!!

The lid can be removed. There are hinges that do keep it in place but I have by accident removed it completely, it does attach easily.

Definitely clicks when you put on the lid. Then the lid is somewhat loose while on. It would not come off if you shook it, it requires a little force to remove the lid. The lid is not airtight.

Yes the lid can be removed but not an easy on and off. I remove it to clean occasionally. Best can going!

A tin shears might do it! IF it has gone all the way around, it should come off easily. However, as I recall, there is a silvery doodad to the left of center, and if you push this, it will release the lid. Good Luck! I'd return it if I were you. Send it along with the lid.

Yes, you can take the straw holder off. However, when you do so, the little knob on top will not have anything to hold it on. Perhaps a little super glue would help. Then, you could have the piece removed but still have your knob to pick up the lid.

No - You will not be able to close the lid. With standard Pend-a-Flex it works fine. PhilOf course our papers are generally 8X11 and lie on their side in the Pend-a-Flex

It has a hinge at the back that allows the lid of the screener to rise up for thicker items to be screened. I love this scanner but I use it for scanning photo's and mostly smaller documents that are only 2 - 4 pages and in these instances I've usually just unstapled them and scanned them one by one but I didn't have to. It also scans photo slides really well (we had some from many years ago) and it also brightens up old yellowed photos and makes them look much newer.

I seem to remember that there are two small plastic "ears" on each side of the lid which will allow the lid to be pulled off without damage. Easy to put back.

You can remove the lid but be very carefull. I dont think you need to remove the lid. I have scanned pictures still in the frame and I have scanned 3d objects. Just be gentle don`t put a lot of pressure on the white panel thingy.

The lid is held onto the lift mechanism by two phillips-head screws. They can be removed. The lift mechanism sticks out in the back about 2-1/4". It is held on by similar screws and could also be removed. (I don't know what would be the consequences for the foot-pedal in the front.) But why pay for all this engineering that you aren't going to use?
