Scanner Does this model have a flat bed scanner?If it does, how well does it work on text?

Yes it has a scanner! That is why I chose this model. It is flatbed, though smaller than, say, legal size paper. However it has the ability, with special holders and a backlight, to scan negatives and slides! I have uploaded two images I have scanned with this thing: One is from a B/W negative, the other is a hand tinted B/W photo. I must say I am extremely pleased. I haven't tried to scan text yet, but my nephew's drawings scanned beautifully and are larger than life on the highest resolution.

I just set up my MP800. I have scanned about 20 slides. They look great. These were all 30+ years old covered with dust and fungus. I was very pleasantly surprised by how good they looked. Counting the time it takes to mount the slides and all the clicks it took about 2 mins a slide. Good luckMalcolm

Have you used this scanner for a mounted 35mm slide? What is the ease of use and the quality of the scan? I am looking for a scanner to scan many, many slides from my father and need ease of use as well as scan quality.Many thanks,Helen

If you can place the document or photo you want to scan perfectly flat on the scanner, it will do a good job stitching. Sometimes you will have to try a couple of times, but it will stitch just fine.

No it does not have scanner. I just checked it; but it is a great machine for faxing. That is the sole purpose in our office. I hope it helps.

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

It has an internal battery and works without any cords It charges via supplied USB cable ... either from computer port or from common USB adapter that plugs into your power grid (I use a 110/USB adapter). Files saved to Micro-SD card .. can either be read right from the device via the supplied USB cable or by placing micro-SD card into external card reader. I am very pleased with the scanner .. can do things that the flat bed scanner cannot do and I can carry it with me where ever I go.

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.

Yes. It scans color or b&w;, pdf or jpg, and has 3 settings for fesolution. The docking station charges the battery in the scanner or you can charge it through a USB port on a computer. Docking station feeds anythjng up to 8 1/2" and has slider to match the width of your document. I got rid of my flat bed scanner entirely. Remove the wand from the docking station and use it to scan books and photo albums. It adjusts the scan if you move it a little too fast or slow. I get my best scans by putting an 8x10" glass plate from a photo album on the object to be scanned. The plate smooths out the document to be scanned and allows smooth motion of the scanner.

yup. It has a one button copy function, you can use it as a copy machine without a computer. The sheet feeder works pretty well. I have mine for a few years under light load, no issue. It only scans one side at a time. I use Adobe Acrobat, and it allows me to scan the reverse side on a second pass via the sheet feeder.

I own the S1300i and that's one of my primary uses of the scanner. You will need to flatten out the receipts before feeding it through the scanner but once you do it works pretty well.

This printer does not have scanning capabilities; its just a bare bones quick and efficient printer. Though I'm sure they have a model that does.

I have used it for black and white, gray toned, and colored documents. I liked it far better for the colored documents (actually for all documents) than using a flat bed scanner, which I used extensively before I bought the Scanjet.

It works on injet that doesn't have pictures, just text. It smears on my inkjet when I do any type pict. but clear for text.

This scanner will scan about anything, the only problem with a book is being able to scan the back of a page, would be holding the page back far enough to make it flat enough to scan. The secret of this scanner is making a steady smooth pass over what you are scanning.

I do not understand the question, but the (driver) software that includes the scanner works great. I have worked with photographs, text and documents and it has gone well. I use it for the house.

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.
