Can the ScanSnap S1500 scan platic cards? Do items need to flex around rollers to be scanned?

Yes they do. It scans photo stock and business cards ok, but plastic cards that are inflexible wouldn't do very well, I think.

This damn thing won't scan papers w/o jamming if you have a big stack (which was my sole purpose for buying it). I wouldn't even chance cardstock. Buy something else.

In certain situations are wrinkled paper I do not think it will work. The scanner will most likely jam.

Yes. Scan's color and both side simultaneously. There is a limit on how stiff and thick the material. I've done both (for my own copy, not for official use). Thicker material might need some help navigating the slight bend on entry.

It definitely scans cardboard mounted slides. I have no advice on glass mounted slides.

It will scan just about everything. You need select the advanced menu if your stuff is odd sized. I have scanned odd sized slides, the old style film strips, negatives of odd size as well. there are some trade offs- since it only comes with the 3 presized holders, it is a bit finicky, but it works.

Yes, of course. It scans anything in pdf format which you can then convert to a jpeg in the Scansnap program.

Yes and yes. There is a 2-1/4 film holder you need to slide the film into to scan it.

If that means put a stack of papers in the top tray to be scanned, then yes. If not, I don't know what automatic duplex scanning is. :)

Mine will only scan negatives. There is one out there that also does slides but this one isn't it. Unless you want to take your slides out of their cardboard holders and scan them as negatives.

It depends on how stiff the card actually is. If the cards can bend a little, then they can be scanned. If they're rigid, forget it. My current driver's license and health insurance card are too stiff for the scanner. Same with credit cards. My dental and car insurance cards are flexible enough to scan without problems. Business cards are generally OK. I have a laminated certification credential that likewise scans just fine. If a card is too stiff, the scanner can't scan it - the one major disappointment I have with this device. The mechanism seems as if it could unlatch to handle the stiffer items, but the software detects the unlatched condition as an error and won't perform the scan. In any case, I use the machine on a Mac and, despite the limitations, I love the thing.

WE scan insurance cards which are often the same thickness and flexible as a business card would be. It should work just fine.

No. You will have to manually straighten any paper(s) before you can do the scanning.

The software is easy to use. I'm not sure about scanning business cards or other cards.

It does scan mounted slides beautifully. I just got this scanner yesterday and have been busy scanning years old family slides. All of mine are mounted in cardboard frames. A very slight learning curve to scan slides (or else I had my stupid hat on yesterday) but I'm happy with my results so far.

Yes, you can scan just about card, document, or item that can be fed through the scanner
