Awesome DocumentSnap reader Jody asked the following question:
Hi, I have been scanning my business and personal docs for years using a Xerox Documate 252; love it! Only problem is receipts on that slick paper jam the machine, so I have to tape them to a piece of paper. Was hoping I could find a clear sleeve to insert the receipt, scan it, then toss the receipt and reuse the sleeve. Have you found such a thing?
This is a great question and one that I suspect quite a few people run into.
I told Jody that I know the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500 comes with a carrier sheet, and that you can buy a 5-Pack of ScanSnap carrier sheets separately.
The question was, would the ScanSnap sheets work with her Xerox?
She decided to take a risk and ordered them, and they worked very well. So, if your scanner is having trouble picking up certain types of paper, it may be worth your while to track down a carrier sheet. It worked for Jody.
