Can this scanner handle receipts, like the receipts printed out by cash registers?

It can be made to work, but it is not ideal. 6010's are basicly designed for regular sized paper.

Yes. Very easily. I scan receipts regularly so I can keep a record of them because receipts fade quickly. If you're receipts are on a continuous roll, then you have to break the roll up into letter or legal size lengths which is common sense.

That is not why I use the scanner. However, the scanner can scan that type of paper and a skinnier width. The issue may be with the continuous nature of the roll (unless you are talking about single receipts, then it can definitely handle it).

I have had no problems with it reading longer receipts (although I haven't measured the length of any). I also cut off the "coupon" parts of receipts before I scan them.

It will scan a business card no problem. But I do not believe it is capable of creating a contact or populating fields.

Yes. That has been my experience. Quality is not superior but decent. This is an affordable scanner for the masses. I recommend this highly IF you intend to use this for scanning large documents and books. I use my older Fujitsu ScanSnap 1500M if I want to scan regular size documents, receipts, business cards since the quality is superior. Hope this helps.

the canon scanners are as good as i have found at pulling through whatever you put in them. the guides do not move far enough inward to hold standard receipts. that said the software does an excellent job at detecting documents that have shifted from an upright position and rotates accordingly.i have to ask, do you intend to feed through high volumes of stacks of paper? if you will only be passing through receipts and cards here and there take a look at the Canon imageFORMULA P-215. it's smaller, cheaper, does as good or better job at receipts, has a special card feeder, and uses the same software. the canon scanners are as good as i have found at pulling through whatever you put in them. the guides do not move far enough inward to hold standard receipts. that said the software does an excellent job at detecting documents that have shifted from an upright position and rotates accordingly.i have to ask, do you intend to feed through high volumes of stacks of paper? if you will only be passing through receipts and cards here and there take a look at the Canon imageFORMULA P-215. it's smaller, cheaper, does as good or better job at receipts, has a special card feeder, and... » Read More the canon scanners are as good as i have found at pulling through whatever you put in them. the guides do not move far enough inward to hold standard receipts. that said the software does an excellent job at detecting documents that have shifted from an upright position and rotates accordingly.i have to ask, do you intend to feed through high volumes of stacks of paper? if you will only be passing through receipts and cards here and there take a look at the Canon imageFORMULA P-215. it's smaller, cheaper, does as good or better job at receipts, has a special card feeder, and uses the same software. « Show Less

You bet it can! I use it for all my sales receipts, warranties, insurance documents, etc. If you're concerned about the size of a receipt, then have no worries. Just place it on the far left and it will go through straight. I've scanned business cards, labels from items I've bought, etc. I honestly don't know what I'd do without this wonderful home scanner. Hope this helps.

Yes! The scanner works best with documents, books, text of any kind. Easiest printer to setup that I've ever used.

I use this machine 5 days a week in an office then also scan receipts with it for my own personal purpose. It has held up well.There are faster machines that are in the $600 to $700 range but this is adequate for me.I've seen the scanners that come with software to sort receipts but that looks designed for home use and not small business.This should work fine for you but you want to think through your sorting method. Sort by year/month, category.And by all means, DO FREQUENT BACKUPS!

It could be done, but there are far better scanners for scanning books. It's great for small things like business cards or a small image on a page, but not whole pages. As l said it could be done, but you would go insane.

From what I have found with mine, it will pick up just about anything other than scrambled transmissions. It is NOT very easy to program, however. It's an awesome scanner, but so good that it's a bit complex.

One more thought though. My statement about the HP scanner is misleading. True for full page receipts, but unlike most flatbed scanners this one only scans the receipt, not a full page of nothing. A small receipt, like from a gas station pump, scans in a few seconds.

I am not aware of this capability. It's VERY easy, however, to set up a folder for each vendor and file the receipts within. I have had this scanner for over 3 months and literally use it on a daily basis and could not be more pleased with its performance and features.

I don't know. We are using the scanner as a POS for retail sales and for inventory. We will try it on a QR bar code and let you know soon

I never heard of one - its a scanner with a built in program/app designed to co-ordinate your receipt/expense categories...it took me too much time to wait to scan - still use my 'shoebox' approach and 'organize' on my own spreadsheet every dozen weeks or so when I have a chunk of 'down time'. Just haven't made time to adapt.

Yes and No. You can but it will not be that efficent. It will work but it will not work like a normal usb scanner. If you are really mobile it would probably work good but otherwise I would say buy a normal one because they are also more inexpensive . Hope this helps

I have no idea - while the scanner has proved to be a good quality scanner, we gave up after lousy support to use the data the read, we just use the scanned files. it's a shame, really, as the concept appears great - but then again, their system can not even interpret any receipts in Euros.

No - if you haven't bought it don't! I bought one several years ago - it worked for about a month. It was glitchy and cumbersome to use. Brother, who makesthe scanner had little/no support.
