Can you copy/scan a page from a book?

Yes. You can put documents through the document feeder and you can also lift the lid to scan documents by placing them on the glass scanner top.
172257
Yes! The scanner works best with documents, books, text of any kind. Easiest printer to setup that I've ever used.

Yes you can. I frequently use mine to make copies of the bible for sunday school and of crochet patterns.

Transfer the scanned docs to your computer and use the computers printer. If you have a printer that will let you read the micro disk, that would work also.

It could be done, but there are far better scanners for scanning books. It's great for small things like business cards or a small image on a page, but not whole pages. As l said it could be done, but you would go insane.

It is possible. I used it to scan manuals and large books. It works out ok, requires a little editing afterwards (rotation).

if you mean like a book page or document (the text), this trick is accomplished by OCR (Optical Character Recognition). According to the description, this device comes with the OCR software, but I can't testify to how good it is as I already had Omnipage.

It will scan the whole thing but if you scan it and save it as a pdf file, then use the snapshot tool in Adobe Reader to select the items you want to keep. Copy those to a drawing/photo blank document. Save it. Works like a charm.

The tool is good for scanning of pages. Books are not flat enough to scan and I can not recommend it for this purpose.

Yes it can. Even longer pages can be scanned. You are just limited on the width to 8.5.

It seems, from my use of the scanner, that this'd work just fine, though you'd have to attend the scan or else check the file to ensure that all pages were inclued (the scanner occasionally grabs more than one page at once). Not to state the obvious, but try it first with a book you can replace easily :-) Also, note the advice from the poster before me (don't get binding glue/debris in the scanner).

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.

Yes you can. You just need to set that up on the scan options on your computer. I have done this with PDF format, but not sure if it works for other file formats.

Yes you can scan to your computer one side of the page at the time. Is not a double page scanner. Pictures come out great!

I am unclear about your question. Are you asking if this can print symbols others than English (e.g, Hebrew) or are you asking if you can scan pages from a book (the Bible)? The printer does not have a scanner function. You would need to scan in the pages from a book into your computer using a scanner.

Yes, I have scanned documents with it as well. It does not convert them to a PDF file though.

Yes -- you can scan from a book by opening the cover and laying the book on the glass. Like most book scans or copies, the binding makes one edge of the page a little distorted and blurry since the binding prevents the book page from laying flat on the glass. It will vary from book to book, but my experience has been that the pages are legible though not pretty. If you're willing to share your email, I'd be happy to send you a pdf sample of a book scan; I don't think I can attach it here.

There is a setting to Continue scanning. You just put the additional pages in and either click the Continue Scanning button or press the button on the scanner. All pages are saved to the same PDF file until you end the job. It can even scan both sides of the page at once.

Yes, you can scan any size copy. You may have to make more than one pass. For instance you can scan the 11x17 copy by making two passes, going horizontally rather than vertically.
