I really don't remember. But unless you have a special need for very long scans-forget about this scanner-it is junk. I returned mine. Get yourself a Fujitsu SnapScan 1500-really excellent scanner-I love it.

We currently use this scanner to only scan 8x11 size pages at our office. I do believe it will scan legal size as well.

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

You can scan pages one after the other. The file numbers change each time you roll over a new document or pic. It does a really good job and is very valuable when doing research .

This should NOT be possible for at least two reasons. First, the scanner's sensors/software would consider an envelope to be a "double sheet feed", flag it as an error condition and terminate the scan. Second, the stated maximum paper thickness/weight the scanner can accept is 20 pound. The envelope itself, let alone a stuffed one will likely exceed that thickness.

As I thought, EPSON provides software that will assist with this. I pulled this from the online manual: "You can scan a 2-sided document using the ADF. First you scan the odd-numbered pages, then you turn the document over and scan the even-numbered pages. Then you can use the Editing Page window to automatically sort the pages." Great scanner. About 10 times faster than one of those "all in one" units that I've tried.

All images are scanned in "one pass" although Silverfast uses two if I'm not mistaken: one for highs and one for lows. I use the Epson software. If you're referring to the physical dimensions of the media you place on the glass, it's about the same as a standard sheet of copy paper. I just placed a sheet on the platen to make sure. You really can't go by the width and height of the glass. It's the width and travel of the scanning head itself. If your media is larger you'll have to scan in sections and stitch it together in Photoshop. Pretty easy to do.

I have had no problems with scanning. You can preselect paper size on the computer driver before you select scan and it will scan the whole document.

You can scan individual pages and collate into (1) PDF file. Insofar as moving on surface you're probably thinking of a hand held scanner that you move over document.

This particular device is not a scanner. It is a wide format printer. Actually, it is quite good. Very clear. Very fast and pretty efficient in terms of cartridge usage. However, it is NOT an all-in-one. I think you are looking for the HP Officejet 7610. It scans up to 11 x 17.

If the paper is flat without wrinkles it will scan very fast with a steady hand. I usually scan a 8 X 11 copy in about 6 are 7 seconds.

About 2000 scanned pages ... I have not had this issue. This is likely a software issue. Have you tried re-installing the software.

Do all size sheets have to be the same. What sizes does it take. I want to scan 50 years of family photos. They are all different sizes and textures. Then I plan to burn them to disk. Does anyone know a relative quick way of doing this. I will have a new computer shortly (Vista). Right now the scanner from my cannon printer all in 1 takes a few minutes to scan each...this would take me the rest of my life. Plus I want to scan one photo at a time. Save and then I can burn to disk. HELP!! Thanks.

The fastest scan speed is Black & White, 300 dpi, and single-side scanning. With the above settings it moves pretty fast, but gets slower from there. Also, the scanner misses sheets pretty regularly, so I have moved to counting all sheets scanned and ''finding''the ones that it missed.

I actually returned it - it was barely bigger than a paper towel roll if I remember. I ended up getting a Fujitsu ScanSnap s1300i and am very pleased with it. A little more expensive, but excellent scans, it's fast, and the multi-sheet feeder is convenient.

No...the scanning area is set for letter-size paper. I scan a lot of larger documents by scanning in sections and then using PhotoShop to 'cut & paste' them together into one document. We use three of these scanners at my office, and they have proven their worth.

It depends on the resolution of the scan. At highest resolution, full color 600dpi, it can take about 30 seconds, but full color at 300 dpi takes 10 seconds, and much less if you go to black and white text, and around 200 dpi, which is plenty high enough for a page of text, in which case less than 5 seconds. The nice feature about this scanner is that if you place a bunch of pictures on the scanner glass, and leave separation between them, it will recognize they are individual pictures and then trim and present you separate scanned images, as if you had scanned the pictures separately. But it's a bit tricky to be sure they are not close together, because if placed edge to edge, it appears to the scanner they are all part of one big picture.

Best if the page is flat. Also be careful to move the scanner carefully so that you get a rectangular scan. If you scan crooked, the scan will be distorted. Just delete and try again until you have a scan you like. I got some weird ones at first, but it helps if both the page and the scanner can be against a solid wall. When I did this, got some good scans.

This device will scan anything that will fit through the scan slot. I've used it a lot for scanning 8.5x11 inch pages for archiving articles that I want to keep but not have piles of paper laying around.
