can you scan regular documents or just receipts? does it store it in files like the add on t.v?

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.

The portable scans receipts and regular size documents. The only downfall to scanning to the scan receipts is you have to tap a receipts to a regular size paper to scan if it's too small.

Yes you can, it comes worth it's own software where you store documents and bills in separate folders. I love it

No - in that it doesn't have a document feeder to stack them in (at least that's delivered as standard equipment). However, if you have a number of small pictures, and don't mind them all together in one image (collage fashion) - Then sure, whatever fits on the platter, can be scanned in one pass.

It can scan them into PDF files. That's how we use it. How you organize those and what you do with them is a different subject.

Yes, it will scan legal documents. Yes you can scan documents and save as PDF files. This depends on your operating system. I use MAC OSX and Win7pro. Both work great using the HP software.. You will like the double sided scanning function. Saves on time and improves overall look and feel of end item - document. Enjoy and good scanning.

Yes, but maybe not the way you think. You set up a template of fields that are important to you and after you scan them . . . you enter the data into that field. I tried the NEAT scanner which was very expensive, and it really didn't work the way they said on TV. You had to type stuff into that as well, so I find that to be able to find documents it is ideal. If you just want to scan business cards and create a database, I would look for another product.

I have both, and the ScanSnap gets my vote. The Neat Receipts idea is great, but the software didn't deliver. It was good at character recognition, but after scanning only 100 documents/receipts or so, it started loading extremely slowly, and got slower and slower each time I scanned a new receipt. It was basically useless, unless you want to wait 10-15 minutes for it to load, and the same amount of time to scan one receipt. I don't know about you, but my paper backlog amounts to a lot more than 100 receipts. I went out and purchased the ScanSnap. There's no character recognition, but if you just want to digitize your documents and receipts, the ScanSnap is your product. Compared to the Neat Receipts scanner (when first purchased) it is as fast (or faster) with single or double sided scanning. It automatically detects blank pages, and it has never once jammed. It creates a pdf wherever you want it saved, and I can easily email the document (which I often do, instead of faxing). ScanSnap is still as fast as the day I opened the box. It gets my vote hands down. Maybe someday they'll add character recognition to the included software.

I wouldn't know as it doesn't come with any software. Just the device, a cloth to wipe the reading glass. It's really only good for business cards or small articles like receipts or an article in a journal. Not for full page scanning.

Yes. You are able to scan: Paper, receipts, photos, business cards, plastic/laminated cards (including embossed).

I select photo + jpg (or tif) for signatures and even cash register receipts. Files zoom up and print clearly (8-pt type is readable). It also offers document + pdf (or tif) choices for incorporating into other apps- as it gives me that many more options. Yes, much easier to get good results than any other scanner I owned.

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, absolutely. However, for what I've experienced in the short time I've had it and as I saw in Youtube you should badge them by size, in another words: don't mix legal size, regular size paper, business cards, receipts etc. The scanner does a great job recognizing the paper. I've scanned over 150 PDF documents and dozens of business cards without problem. Another great feature, is that if the scanner jams (for some reason as: old or stappled document), it will saves the pages that were already scanned and ask you to reset the door of the scanner and continue. This helps you save a lot of time or having to re-start a scan. Hope this helps. Yes, absolutely.

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.

It does not have any storage. It IS USB powered and as such have no battery or power adapter. You need a computer/laptop with a USB port(s) to scan. You don't need their software, only the drivers. I use a Mac and use either Preview or Adobe Acrobat to make documents (.pdf), but there are all manner of apps that can access the scanner for various purposes. The neat feature of this scanner is that you can scan both sides of a document simultaneously. So in order of questions asked: No. Yes. No. No. You're welcome.

If you had no need for quicken before this, I think you can just scan in your receipts and total them with your adding machine. I find it helpful to name the scans by date and subject, ie: 3.12.12LipitorRX. The program will had the ".jpg at the end.Simple.I love, love, love my snap scan.

The software that comes with this scanner isn't that sophisticated--I'd be shocked if it could do that. I often scan multiple receipts at the same time, and at no time does it treat them as separate entities, it just crops the entire main image. If you think about it, the scanner would have to know whether or not you were scanning a photo in order to determine if there were multiple photos present, since any standard document has large gaps of white that could fool the scanner into thinking it was multiple images. Since that's a software function anyhow, you can do that in most any other image handling software package like ACDSee, Photoshop, etc. The software that comes with this scanner isn't that sophisticated--I'd be shocked if it could do that.

Yes, you can scan using a regular SD card, and just insert the card into your computer. The scanned documents should be there.

I scan just about everything, including receipts, but I am not sure what you mean by 'record' receipts. If you mean to categorize them when scanned, you can do that by the file you save a receipt(s) in. I must say this is the best scanner I have ever had used.
