Can the scanner be power by a plug in method ?

USB plugged into computer will power both scanner and feeder. But by doing that, you can only save or send everything you scan directly to the computer, can not save to SD card. If you want to save scaned documents to the SD card, you need to unplug the usb and power the scanner with batteries. Hope this help

You can connect the scanner to your PC with the USB cable if you do not want to put into any battery. Thanks.

The scanner runs by a battery which is included & pre-loaded into the device. I haven't removed the battery yet; it would surely require a screwdriver to unfasten the door.

Not sure how to answer your question... the unit comes with a standard power supply cord that plugs into the scanner. I believe it comes with the 110V standard USA rating. Sorry hope this helps... Its a great unit already scanned over 2600 pictures and still have room on the memory card. The unit has already paid for itself.... in the cost of sending out pictures to be scannned.

I plug my scanner into my laptop with the 'mini' USB cord supplied with the unit. My laptop has shore power, so mine is 'travel-ready'. YMMV

The USB plugin is about the size of a USB memory device. In the box was the scanner, USB cord for charging and the USB dongle. The scanner cannot be used while the charging cord is plugged into it

I wish I could answer your question, unfortunately the scanner hasn't worked so I am not using it.

Greetings !! I have not installed or used this cable setup yet, but I bought it with the understanding that the two USB connectors on the 'Y' arm should each go into USB ports on the computer, in order to provide more currrent for whatever external device is ultimately attached to the single remaining USB. In my case, the plan was to power a late-model Canon LiDE flatbed scanner from my laptop; I read somewhere that the scanner could use the extra current, and that while it is possible to use the scanner with one (1) USB connector, two (2) power inputs would be better. That is all I can say for Now. All the best! Arnold Browne_Columbia Uiniv_NYC Greetings !!

This scanner works with your laptop via USB port power. The nice thing with this scanner is that it is small enough to put into your laptop case or briefcase and uses the power from the laptop USB plug. That's all need to make and keep a copy. You can also save the scanned copy into your laptop memory for future use. This scanner does both sides of the paper as well without having to turn over the paper.

The scanner is supplied with USB cable (one side USB-A type connector and other side USB-B type connector)

Sorry, don't know. It is a regular plug in. If you have an adapter you may be able to.

That other answer is not entirely correct. A powered hub can operate on USB power only. It does not NEED to be plugged into AC. It will work the same as an un-powered hub, which will limit you to a total of 500mA of current draw from all ports combined. However, if you use the AC adapter then you will have up to 500mA per-port (2A total).So if you are only going to connect low powered devices, or self powered devices, then the AC adapter can be considered optional. If you need to connect devices that draw more power (portable hard drives, USB powered scanners, burners, etc.) then you would need to use the AC adapter to supply the additional power.

It has wall socket and believe will scan without computer and then when you plug in will load images at that time

It has a cord that you just plug into the scanner and your USB port on your computer unless you have a plug adapter for a USB cord. It takes playing with it a little to figure out how to use it but it is very easy to use. I love it.,

The scanner is powered over USB, so for a vehicle you would first need a laptop, then scan it over USB to the laptop, but for that you would need a direct power line in your vehicle, or a 12V to 120V power converter to keep the computer charged. I also do not believe the scanner has local storage if you have a standard usb charger for a car that you could use

Yes and it plugs directly into your computer. No electricity needed. Turns on when you click open the ScanSnap Icon on the desktop. It is more simple than you can imagine. Let me know if you have any other questions.

It has rechargeable ability. You can take it with you and use it free from the charging unit to scan but it needs to be plugged in to transfer to your computer.

No, the scanner and the base are connected thru blue tooth you only need an USB port
