How large of an image can be scanned?
1954899
Since the 1430 is not a scanner I assume you want to know how large an image can be printed. The width limit is 13 inches, but lengthwise it will print panoramas that are quite long. I have some prints (using rolled paper) that are 44 inches long (i.e.13" x 44"). Most of my large prints are typically 11 x 17 or 13 x 19, or in that general range (depending on crop) as these are more common paper sizes. Hope this helps.

For what it is worth, that is about 600dpi (2400x4800) and will net you a file about 29M. Way overkill.. 4X6 scanned at 300dpi (1200x1800) will take about 6.5Mb for a TIFF file.. Jpg will be about .5 Mb As you go up in DPI, the file size grows exponentially.. Use Jpeg for emails, web etc, TIFF for archiving photos Jpeg's are good for emails, web etc at 150DPI or less (low as 72dpi).. Anything above 300DPI is typically a waste of space unless you plan on doing very large prints . 300dpi is a fine setting for storing images. TIFF is far better format to avoid pixelation.

Limited to scanning 8 1/2 x 11 at a time. I think Can be saved as PDF. Haven't done much with it yet.

I scanned a bunch of old family photos from the 40s-60s, and it did fine, it pulled them straight through using the guides. They were of different sizes so I sorted as best I could and batch scanned the groups. Somewhat difficult to navigate the setting menus to obtain the highest resolution (1200x1200), in color, and the correct size. Much faster and easier than a flat scanner.

the scan width is 8.5" but it can scan forever. I've used it on big paintings, just running it down the canvas to copy the image. I've done scans 8"x48" this way.

You can scan something that's any size you want (as long as its not too big to fit on the glass). You just put as many pictures on the glass as you can fit at a time and scan everything. Once you've cropped out each individual picture (I'm not sure how this model works with that part of the process, sorry), then you can put the jpeg files on a CD or make a slideshow on a DVD or whatever you want. Remember if it's a really small picture you might want to use the enlarge feature when you scan it to make it bigger and a higher resolution so it'll look better on a large screen like a TV. What you've asked about isn't too high of an expectation at all. That's just what any scanner does.

I'm sorry but I don't have any scanning capabilities so I couldn't say. Good luck in your quest.

Just for kicks and grins I scanned negatives and slides at the maximum resolution and I estimate the process took about 10-15 per. I also found out that scanning at the highest resolution created files so large (some as big as 600MB) that even though I have a fairly high performance PC, (Core i7, 12GB of RAM), the files were so big I couldn't open them. I dropped down to around 2400-4800 DPI and found the files created about 1.2MB or so. I also scanned files on my MBP with 4GB of RAM and it also created files too large to open and in a few cases it even crashed. I decided the 4800 DPI range was more than sufficient for scanning for my purposes which is to burn all these treasured slides and negatives to disk and give them to family so they can enjoy them too. If you are a professional photographer or designer and you need the max resolution you will need a box with the highest performing hardware you can buy and that will be commensurate with the price. Bottom line: Test various resolutions and see what works for your purposes. I read MANY of the reviews of this scanner before I bought it and decided it would work perform the job I needed it to do and it has performed admirably.

It will scan 8.5"X14" and shrink it to 8.5"X11". An excellent scanner for the money.

The scan bar is only about 8" wide. You can scan longer than 11", but you might have a problem viewing it afterwards. I recommend scanning by sections anything larger than 8 1/2 by 11.

TedIf you go to Adorama.com it does say that it does medium and large format scans. I'm here trying to find a review of how well it scans large format film.

The picture scanner part of this unit is adjustable. It could scan old film strips, negatives, etc.

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.

my scanned photos are very small on my computer. How to enlarge them? I changed from 4 x 6 to full size scan on settings but it still makes a small picutre with large scanned white area all around it..

Default on all scan images is 200 dpi; lowest selectable is 75 dpi and highest is 2400 dpi. The higher the dpi scan the MUCH longer the image scan time. Up to 4-5 minutes for a 5 X 7 or larger 2400 dpi scan image.

I bought the unit but haven't used it as yet. My friends tell me that they can scan almost anything, including old photos that are bent. Should do checks just fine.

I honestly don't know because I only scan documents which are 8.5x11. Sorry.
