Hi Ian, They say that any Epson scanner works well with K1000 and I can vouch for that. I use an Epson 1660, which you can't get any more unfortunately, and I've had pretty good scans. Am I right in thinking you use Kw1000? If you do, and you go to their website, http://www.kurzweiledu.com there's a section on the site called scanner compatibility which suggests the best models to use. Hope this helps. Cheers, Sandra. ** To leave the list, send a message to:- ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
