Do you have to have an SD card, or you can scan directly to the computer via bluetooth or USB?

I believe it uses an sD card and I have to connect it USB to download my scans.

I use a mini SD card. I am very happy with the image. I am on the road and this is perfect for me.

I used the scan disk micro SD card just fine. Maybe try it again and make sure it slides in until it locks; you will feel it connect. I was able to access my music from the micro SD card.

There is no readout. To both initiate scan and view results a Bluetooth connected phone is needed.

No. You must scan to the SD card then export to computer. I have tried to scan/export directly to computer with no success. The process of scanning to the card is very fast and simple however.

You do not have to use Evernote. Scans are saved as a jpeg file. However, you must use a full size SD card (or adapter) with this particular model.

yes, it is a decent scanner, USB supported in most applications. You application must have the ability to use the scanned data, basically it is like a keyboard wedge, anything you would normally input via kbd can be scanned.

You can connect the scanner to your PC with the USB cable if you do not want to put into any battery. Thanks.

each scan is saved on an SD card. You will need to transfer it manually by removing the card or by connecting with a USB cable.

This stand alone scanner. Its amazing, once you practice for 8-10 times, you can learn it. How scanning is done ? Just press scan button on device and move device over the paper you want to scan. Thats it. You need computer just to pull scanned images. So when you connect to any computer (mac, windows) you will see SD card of device and all scanned images like storage device. You can store scanned images as JPG or PDF.

You need a usb connection, no blue tooth is needed. The scanner might need formatting to work with your system. Talk to the software company to help you to figure it out. That's what I had to do.

If your computer had a slot for SD card, you can remove SD from camera and insert there to read it. Otherwise will need a USB cable that fits.

It does not REQUIRE and SD card, but having one allows you to scan to the scanner without having to have it attached to your laptop. SD Card does NOT come with, but having one allows you more portability.

No. The scanner doesn't have its own storage and needs to be connected to a computer via USB to work. If you want more portable scanning, try the Doxie Go, for example.

i didn't have to install anything to use its basic features. I insert an SD card, then scan documents. Then I take the SD card out and insert that in to my computer and the scanned items are in .jpg format on the SDcard. pretty simple.

Is it necessary to have a computer if you have one of these scanners? What is the purpose?

The card that came with it is one of those mini's that requires an adapter (included) to insert into a computer. I have two of these one is a 2 gig and the other is an 8. I can not remember which one came with the scanner.

You have to have the scanner connected to a computer in order for it to work. The software to operate the scanner is loaded on the computer. The disk for the software comes with the scanner. There is a cord with the scanner to connect it to a USB port on your computer.
