Scanning Photos

Doxie Pro gets great results scanning photos.

Which Feeder Should I Use?

Use Doxie's direct feed slot. Doxie Pro isn't a photo-optimized automatic scanner – for best results and to protect your originals, don't scan photos with the ADF.

How To Scan Photos

Place your your photo in the direct feed slot — centered, face down, and top first. Hold and support both sides of the paper until Doxie grabs it.

If your photo is particularly fragile, consider using a photo sleeve. Slip in your original, then insert the sleeve into the direct feed slot.

📌 Having trouble with photos jamming? Photos work best in the direct feed slot. You can scan modern, flat photos with the ADF, but older or curled photos may jam. If a photo jams, open the inner cover to gently remove it.
