Can this works for scanning receipts? Have any one used it for scanning receipts?

Yes - it scans receipts as small as a credit card receipt or a gas station bill.
1340856
Yes. It works for any size paper up to the width of the scanner (about 9 in.)

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, it is just a scanner truthfully the only reason we purchased was to help organize receipts for business. if you just need to put your recipes on computer i would just get a cheap scanner it will work the same or use a printer/scanner

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.

It works great. I use it to scan receipts mainly. I scan checks in color with decent photographic quality, for a 300dpi scanner. I have been using one for a couple of years, and just bought a few more in case i drop it and break it, as i depend on it! I hope this helps.

It should work ok unless it's bigger than legal sized paper. However, you have to hold the scanner and move it over what you want to scan which is what I don't like.

Yes it can. It works fine for that. Small receipts might be a problem, but if you take the time to tape/glue to a bigger piece of paper it should work. I did this with all sorts of papers and with photos, etc.

Not really intuitively. Its great for a scanner but I found that I may be to illiterate to use it to its total functionality. The set up is not very user friendly if you don't have experience. For tax returns its a good scanner to process your receipts but you will have to categorize yourself. Its a good scanner but I wish the directions were more user friendly.

You just slide the scanner across the receipt. I had no problems, but you will need to buy a memory card.

I have only used it for documents. But I did put a few receipts and half size sheets of paper through which it scans but saved as a full sheet of paper. I can say it scans both sides simultaneously. Best of luck!

Yes, that's what I use it for as well as any other records where I want to reduce paperwork clutter. You can use it for about anything e.g. medical records, EOBs from your medical insurer, photo collections, cd collections, legal documents, recipes - about anything you can think of. The program has many templates for "filing cabinets" which are more business oriented, but you can easily make and customize/modify your own. And all your data is easily retrieved when you need it. Also found tech support very helpful in answering questions/problems. Neat receipt hardware/software was way too expensive for me and you can use just about any scanner you like - if your scanner has OCR software so much the better.

It will scan anything...decoding it is another matter. I can't confirm whether it will support those standards but $14 you can. :)

Yes. I do it all the time. Just scanned in an 8 page document last night. That has more to do with software than the hardware and the software that comes with the scanner works well.

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate and the scanner works well. I also use ReadIris Pro 12 software and it functions correctly.

Scans come out just fine for our purposes. Then again, this was not bought strictly for its scanning abilities. Ours is used in a small business office setting. Hope that helps.

It's pretty easy. First of all, there is a setting that will combine multiple 'pages', so you set that. Then, let the scanner scan until it stops, and without moving the receipt, you press the scan button again, and it will continue.

I use it for just that! Once in a while, I run into a problem with the page sliding a little. This is due to the thin paper and glossy finish, I believe. I have also noticed with some of these glossy mag pages, lines will appear in the scan... Also due to the gloss finish, I am assuming. But, for the most part, it is great for scanning notes, magazine pages, documents, receipts, etc.

Hey Wendy, I haven't used a ScanSnap scanner but my understanding is that it is simply a scanner that comes with some OCR software. I believe you can create searchable PDFs out of it. It sounds like you're wanting to create expense reports which is one of the niche features of Neat Receipts. I have one of their older refurbished scanners and the included software will scan receipts and grab the relevant data out them (date, payee, amount, etc.) I only used it a couple times and it seemed to work okay. Eventually, the Neat Receipts software frustrated me so much that I gave up on it and just used their scanner to create PDFs. Neat Receipts may be a better option for you though, but be sure to read the reviews first. NeatReceipts Mobile Scanner and Digital Filing System
