Will the scanned business card be able to easily create a contact in Outlook?

I do not believe so. The scanner saves a picture or image (.JPG) of the card. Outlook requires a text file of sorts. The image has to be converted to text by some process after the scanning.

Canon has a pretty neat tool for scanning. This model also has a feature to email directly from the unit. So to answer your concern, you will not be disappointed with this machines ability to scan.

yes. any size with in letter / A4 sizes.but only thing is while scanning you need to pull or draw the scanner nicely and smoothly so that the thick papers like business cards doesnt stuck the rollers.However based on the selection of the size of the paper, determines the scanned page. so you may need to crop later. also while scan you make sure that keep the card on a flat surface so that the rollers are pushed / rolled to activate the scan. whatsoever explained here, its slightly tough job. hands on will give you better understanding

Actually it's a little anti-intuitive, but once you fiddle with it a little (I rarely read the directions), it turns out that it's an awesome time saver. The biggest trick is to know to scan business cards face down. The software captures about 90% of the info on the cards without errors and also gives you an image so you can correct info. I haven't scanned individual files, but it is creating a database of all the hundreds of business cards that have been cluttering my desk for years and for that alone it is worth the price.

In concept, it will work. The tough part is that there is no way to control how large you scan area is. If your text is small, the scanned area could be several lines high. I found recognition somewhat unpredictable when I tried to use this for receipts.

Yes, there are many pre-designed templates for business or personal cards, or you can design your own. Works great.

WE scan insurance cards which are often the same thickness and flexible as a business card would be. It should work just fine.

I haven't tried to scan businesse cards but I don't see how that would be an issue. I have scanned a picture and it scanned perfectly. I would suggest placing the card on plain white paper before scanning.

You scan the card and the software pulls the information automatically to the proper contact fields, some times the adjustments are mínimum, save a lot of time

I can think of no reason why it wouldn't work. If H&S 2007 is functioning on your windows 8 machine then there shouldn't be any problems with outlook either.

Some of the cards that we scan are not plastic. It comes with a plastic covering so you should be able to scan a business card.

If it's only a couple pages, yes. I have been very pleased with how mine is working. Some of the larger credit card offers are just to thick. I open them and feed anything with personal info through the shredder. Envelopes and such I just throw in the recycle bin.

You bet it can! I use it for all my sales receipts, warranties, insurance documents, etc. If you're concerned about the size of a receipt, then have no worries. Just place it on the far left and it will go through straight. I've scanned business cards, labels from items I've bought, etc. I honestly don't know what I'd do without this wonderful home scanner. Hope this helps.

Absolutely ... very easy to do. You must put envelope(s) lengthwise in auxilliary paper tray in center position. I use MS Word 2010 to do this and it will print both the return address and the recipients address. Do NOT use self adhesive envelopes (only licking kind). Put Flap side to left. If you are using Word, you can go to http://blogs.office.com/2010/10/08/envelopes-and-return-addresses-video/ for more info on this. Good luck.

I am sure one IT guy is going to check sooner or later, so I will answer The unit can be configured to log into an SMTP server and send mail directly. No agent is needed to run on any local workstation like some of the older HP units. Under the configuration screens (via Web UI) you can enter your settings and setup the default scan settings. While not as responsive as Xerox, canon, or some of the other higher end full size copiers, this is a relief from a SMB perspective that no other software is needed than what is running on the machine itself and a simple network cable.

I'm not familiar with outlook but my scans can easily be used in yahoo or windows live mail.Just as any jpg file.

I don't use the emailing capabilities. I'm sure it is good. Quickbooks is a great program. I have used it for almost 20 years. There have been many upgrades but this last upgrade is so different and I don't like it.
