Hi Simon.
This isn't exactly expensive but I use this myself and I love these
scanners. I've just bought the latest in the range, its the Canon Lide200
USB powered scanner. It has a twain driver for backward compatibility but
can also work with software that uses WIA, has an optical resolution of 2400
by 4800 pixels and is really thin, so much so that you can stand it on its
side for maximum space saving and efficiency. It's USB powered so no mains
and it has four buttons for performing things like scan, copy, email and so
on. This will set you back around 54 pounds from play.com and was the
cheapest I could find at the time. I don't know why your so keen to spend
so much money, considering text scanning resolutions are rarely above 1200
by 1200 pixels. In fact, I think that's Omnipage's maximum scan resolution
anyway and that's a professional edition.
All the best, Ibrahim

Subject: [access-uk] scanner recommendation please!
hello list,
I am considering a new scanner, and am looking for something really top of
the range, with the highest resolution possible, but can't find an easy way
to get at that info, with out going through all the details of god only
knows how many scanners, to find what I am looking for.
it should work under XP, be USB, and able to work with a scanning program,
such as k1000. price is no object.
so please does anyone know of any sites, where I could easily find that
info, such as being able to filter out all the scanners with lower
resolutions, leaving only the higher resolution ones, or have any scanner
recommendations?
