Q: 1. Can this work in 240v countries (like Hong Kong)? It says 100-240v on the adaptor that comes with product but I want to be sure.

A: I contacted Epson with your inquiry. They state that yes, the AC power adapter included with the purchase of the Epson FastFoto FF-680W Photo Scanner, MFR # B11B237201, is compatible for use in Hong Kong on the voltage/hertz output power used in Hong Kong.
