FeedYep, Wal-Mart doesn't understand copyright at all
Don't try to take a studio portrait to Wal-Mart and scan it to make some prints. According to Wal-Mart "Copyright lasts forever. It's the law." This is what one customer was told when trying to make prints of an 80 year old photo of her dead grandmother.

It's just store policy to not allow any prints to be made from something that appears to be professional (yes, I know this is very very subjective). In any case, there is information on the scanner lid explaining this and a notice on the screen before you begin that explains this a little better.
