17x12 is the largest book you can scan in one scan, but if each page is 17 inches wide, that would equal a total of 24 inches. So, yes, you can scan one page at a time, instead of two pages at a time, if that's how your book is. Hope that helps.

The optical resolution is 5300 dpi. It is up to you to select the dpi, as a 6x9 cm film would demand a very fast computer to handle the large scanned file size!

Scaning glass area is 8.5"X12.0" so a single scan of either size you want isn't possible.

8 2/3 inch by 12 1/4 inch but I do not think it will scan this size. Most likely 8 X 11

I have had no problems scanning pages from top to bottom on larger books. Smaller books have to be scanned from the spine to the edge of the pages side ways. It may take some practice to scan the entire manuscript on pages and to get the best speed. I use a class 10 chip. I have had only a few pages have "warps" on the scans. I am very pleased with this product, it has met all of my needs and expectations as a genealogist.

you cannot scan anything larger than the glass size without letting light in, which spoils the scan; furthermore the size of the scanned image cannot exceed approximately 10" x 16", although it will appear that there's more scanning area. That said, it's a reliable machine, and the larger scan area has been a boon for me. One last thing to beware of: the bottom of the machine is made of a soft rubber plastic that can easily warp if not fully supported, and, if it warps, the machine won't function as it blocks the moving part.

This is the only downside to this scanner - it will only scan up to an 8.5 x 14 - legal document size. I wish it would do 11 x 14 but I decided to get this one anyway because of over size of the scanner, the difference in price, and that I have so few photos I need to scan that I don't have an 8 x 10 or smaller copy of, I can take the others somewhere to get them scanned.

The scanner is approximately 10" wide. You can auto feed a picture through it or you can hand hold the scanner and go down the picture. The photo would have to be able to fit in the width dimension, length is not an issue. It is a great product.

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.

There is room but not a lot. A fairly narrow spined ledger book will fit as will a few sheets of paper if that is what you have as an inventory sheet. Probably anything up to about 3/8 " I hope this is helpful to you.

Do all size sheets have to be the same. What sizes does it take. I want to scan 50 years of family photos. They are all different sizes and textures. Then I plan to burn them to disk. Does anyone know a relative quick way of doing this. I will have a new computer shortly (Vista). Right now the scanner from my cannon printer all in 1 takes a few minutes to scan each...this would take me the rest of my life. Plus I want to scan one photo at a time. Save and then I can burn to disk. HELP!! Thanks.

No, that is probably the only drawback I have found. A letter width (8.5) is the widest it will scan.

I actually returned it - it was barely bigger than a paper towel roll if I remember. I ended up getting a Fujitsu ScanSnap s1300i and am very pleased with it. A little more expensive, but excellent scans, it's fast, and the multi-sheet feeder is convenient.

This scanner will scan 11 inch by 17 inch on a flat bed. Note it doesn't have a document feeder. I use if for scanning old photo albums and scrapbooks which are approximately 11x17. If is also good for scanning sheet music which is tyically larger that 8.5x11.

it depends on the resolution you set the scanner at: a 300dpi color image, 3"x3" would be about 4-5 Mb

Hi Guy, I tried a book that is about that size, it is wide enough-I don't think it is deep enough ^ for it it, probably would fit if you didn't have to close the zipper-Hope this helps a little G.Riley, Waterloo

The flatter you can get the book, the better the scan. Otherwise, you will get a curvy scan, but one which is readable.
