Pack of 5

I scan a lot of music and choral octavos are not the easiest to run through a sheet fed scanner. I have an Epson RR-600W sheet fed scanner. It's the best at fast, high quality scans but isn't great for anything other than 8.5x11 sheets of paper. Scanning choral octavos is nearly impossible with cutting them. Using the carrier sheets I can scan two pages at a time, flip the page and keep going. The only downside to these is that they are consumables, they do wear out after around 40-50 scans. In the picture, the one on the right is almost worn out completely because they develop lines from being fed through. The price is low enough that it's not a problem to recycle and use a new one. I thought at first they'd last longer but it's not too expensive. It works out to about 3 to 5 cents per use. The thicker the booklet you send through, the worse the wear is. It's quite easy with the software to line the scans up and move quickly through scans. I processed 10 octavos, around 8-16 pages each in around 30 minutes. It's great for documents that you don't want to cut to size. A flat bed scanner is not an option for my situation and these make using my scanner much more effective.

I put the scanner on "thicker" paper setting and it went through great. The only negative is that their packaging is far from green. I bought a set of 5 (I only needed 1) and each one came in its own cardboard sleeve with it's own piece of paper inside each one between the flaps. This was totally a waste. One sleeve and no paper inserts would have done the trick. The product is not fragile. In fact, having more in one sleeve would be less likely to bend! I think the issue is that they sell these in different size sets and they just want them easy to pick up and box. Efficient on the front end but wasteful on the back end. Fortunately for planet earth, I recycle every thing I can. But the best thing is not to create waste in the first place. That is more efficient and cleaner than having to recycle the waste. Sorry for the rant but I just had too. I can only hope they are listening.

Wanted this to scan docs, receipts and such. The black strip holding the 2 halves together causes the scanner to interpret a paper jam. Bummer! 08-2022 Update: Turns out, there is a software setting on the Brother brand scanner that prevented the scanning operation. Once unselected, the sheet ran through and contents inside were perfectly clear.

The sheets were bought to scan receipts that may be very thin or cannot be damaged. Nowadays you simply use your late model phones to do that. However, old photos and such need to be protected if they go through fast scanners of set the resolution as high as it can go and full color to slow things down a bit. I am not using them very often but so now and then it is nice to have them in my desk file cabinet. I think I got five and gave two of them to another office person. If needed I simply use a flatbed scanner to be safe, but slow.

I use the ScanSnap brand carrier sheets to scan 11x17 sheets in my ScanSnap scanner. To do this, the 11x17 is folded in half, placed in the carrier sheet, scanned using the duplex mode, and the two sides of the page are knit into one 11x17 page. I needed another carrier sheet and though I would get this brand at a lower cost because the listing said it worked in the ScanSnap scanner. These Plustek carrier sheets do protect fragile documents, but they do not make the two sides of the folded 11x17 scan into one page. These carrier sheets have a solid black line instead of a series of black rectangles on a white edge - the ScanSnap brand must have some sort of coding that the scanner recognizes that that is what it is. I can't speak for other brands of scanners, but the Plustek carrier sheets did not work like the original in the ScanSnap scanner.

These letter size document carrier sheets are just what I have been looking for. I use them for receipts and fragile documents. They work great in my Epson workforce Pro WF-3820 and make scanning simpler and easy. They do not get stuck. I am also looking for some legal size document carrier sheets. I hope in the future you may have some available for purchase. I will buy from this company again.

The “sleeves” were frosted - not clear, and therefore not useful when scanning photos.

Arrived with lines across sheets and with various "crinkles" in it. I tried to use it anyway but it was not compatible with my Epson ff-680w as it said it was too thick.

This product did not work with my scanner. Unable to feed when it should be compatible. Do not buy

These are useless for scanning photos. The plastic has a visible grid that shows on that photograph when scanned. Why would anyone make a product like this?
