Can it scan pictures?

Yes, it can scan pictures, but it offers little control on the output, and saves the file in jpg. In other words, it is OK for the occasional picture but will not be sufficient for someone who wants to be able to control the quality of the scan or wants photography-level images.

You can scan pictures and depending on the size of the picture being scanned, it can work perfectly HOWEVER the picture will be bent by the roller. If the paper the picture is printed on can withstand being bent by the roller, you're good ... but a lot of photo stocks won't withstand it. I figure here than anything 4 x 6 or smaller scans very well. Anything larger than that, I use my flatbed scanner.

Yes, it can but not advisable. It's going to bend the picture and because it run in a roller, it scanning accuracy is not guaranteed. Get a flatbed instead.

Yes. However this is not a flat bed scanner, so pictures need to pass through the feeder. Your pictures may get rolled, or they may be too thick.

No. It can't even scan 8.5" x 14" legal documents. However, with photoshop you could scan it in sections and past it together.

Yes, you can scan as JPG and in color, at variable resolutions. The quality of the scan somewhat depends on how steady your hand is, but you have unlimited do-overs if you don't like the result right away.

You can scan pretty much anything, but you need to be sure that the scanned object is firmly placed and immovable.

Yes, of course. It scans anything in pdf format which you can then convert to a jpeg in the Scansnap program.

Yes it can. Even longer pages can be scanned. You are just limited on the width to 8.5.

I have used it to scan in some photos and they turned out well. I think it would depend upon the type whether you wanted to run them through or not, such as old family photos, etc.

Yes it can. You have to select type of scan, e.g., tiff or JPEG. You'll probably want JPEG. You should set the resolution, which depends upon what you want to do with the scanned image. Low resolution is OK if you are going to distribute the scanned pictures in emails, but if you want to make prints ultimately, save at at least 300 dpi. You should tell the scanner where on your computer you want to save the files. I use "My Pictures," but the default, whatever it is, is OK, as long as you make a note of it, so that you can find the pictures after scanning them. You'll be asked about color settings or black and white. Choose the default settings for either, since things can become quite complex if you decide to tweak the settings. This is an excellent scanner, and it can do anything you ssk of it, including restoring damaged pictures, but that's for more advanced users.

no, you cannot scan images for this software. You need a digitalizing software and from what I have found out, several thousand dollars for it :(

I have not tried to scan pictures but I have tried to scan my license and it worked great.

Yes you can use it to scan your photos and the resolution is wonderful, colors are exact and very crisp. Great scanner.

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

YES & YES and it does a reasonably good job, too. I mainly use the Scan to PDF & JPEG options and have been really pleased with the results. Scanning is slow, but for a portable unit is does many things well and there have to be a few sacrifices for the portability sake. Keep in mind that it runs just fine on battery mode too... just can not go wrong with this unit !!!

Yes. You can scan an image on the printer and any PC on your network can access that image.

It doesn't do well with glossy paper/photos. I tried to scan about 50 photos and it would start to skip and make some interesting images. IMHO, you'd want a flatbed scanner for best results.

Yes. It's available online if you cannot use the disk that cones with the scanner. But it is a plug n play device. If you don't have the software installed it automatically scans it as a photo. The problem is that you can't change it to a pdf or manipulate it in any way.
