Can I scan photo slides with this printer?  I know you can get an extra holder for a flat bed scanner.  Is there something similar for this printer scanner?

No, your printer model can't scan slides.

There are some DIY you can find on the internet, but for good results, you will need a professional device to scan slides.

Thank you.  I tried after I posted the question and it definitely doesn't work.
