I am primarily interested in a scanner that can handle sources such as wrinkled receipts. How well does it handle sources that are wrinkled/creased?

The visioneer will handle wrinkled receipts once flattened out. But, note that the wrinkles or fold marks will scan as dark or clouded marks on the receipt. Also a tip, if the top of edge of the receipt is messed up, scan from the bottom and use the image (jpg) and then rotate the image prior to creating a pdf.

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

That would depend on how wrinkled. I primarily use this machine to scan contracts that I sign at the kitchen table with a home owner. However, I have used this also to scan receipts. Most of which were loosly folded and thrown in my pocket. I have had trouble scanning really really wrinkled receipts, however if you use the edge of a desk or similar edge to smooth the receipt prior to scanning, you should have no issue whatsoever. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED. GREAT VALUE!!!!!!!

have never tried it. the scanner will stop if you feed it too fast and finds that the paper is too long.

It does a pretty good job. I have fed it 15 grocery receipts at a time without jamming. Of course, if they are totally wrinkled, that

Sorry, don't know. I really did not like the software, so I dumped it for a Brother DS700d sheet fed scanner with Page Maker software which are far superior and costs less.

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).

It did not work good on any photos. I found that the ScanSnap 300 by Fujitsu works excellent on all... plus it is good for documents.

Yes you can, the same as with any regular scanner except you have to consider the size. If you do this a lot and want something store receipts and categorize them, you might want to look at Neat Receipts.

I purchased an Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner. It scans slides, pictures and negatives. The scanner takes 4 slides at a time. Worked great. I had about 1500 slides from the 60s. The Kaiser Mini let me sort thru them quickly. Was a great winter project.

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. It does a good KOB scanning documents for reprint or to email. I'm not sure about photos as I haven't ever tried to scan and reprint those.

yes, it is just a scanner truthfully the only reason we purchased was to help organize receipts for business. if you just need to put your recipes on computer i would just get a cheap scanner it will work the same or use a printer/scanner

Yes! I have been happy with this scanner. Has a reasonable price tag. Good luck!

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.

If the paper is flat without wrinkles it will scan very fast with a steady hand. I usually scan a 8 X 11 copy in about 6 are 7 seconds.

I don't think so. They're probably too thick for this device. The Neat Desk Scanner can do it, but not Neat Receipts.

I've had that problem on occasion usually when there are folds in the paper. My solution has been to put a slight crease in the document length wise first. I think it handles paper better than the other scanners I've used but still not perfect

You can certainly scan receipts with it but I do not believe that it will take the information off of the receipts and categorize it or anything. It is a very good scanner for basic light-weight purposes.

This should NOT be possible for at least two reasons. First, the scanner's sensors/software would consider an envelope to be a "double sheet feed", flag it as an error condition and terminate the scan. Second, the stated maximum paper thickness/weight the scanner can accept is 20 pound. The envelope itself, let alone a stuffed one will likely exceed that thickness.
