[access-uk] Re: scanner recommendation please!

Hi Simon.

OK, well as I said, this has an optical resolution of 2400 by 4800 pixels with 
a 64 bit colour depth.  It automatically adjusts itself to the lighting 
environment to achieve the best scan results and as its from Canon, you can 
expect good image quality for the money.  If you want to know more, check out 
the canon website under home users and scanners.

scanning as well.

    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

      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?
