OK, that's definitely the model called the CanoScan LiDE 70, which is right in between the two my husband owns. It has pretty good reviews on Amazon, and if it's anything like our two, it'll be loud but durable. It draws all its power through the USB cable, which I like.


He uses it with Omnisoft or with Paint Shop Pro, rather than using the arcsoft software that comes with it. Did you get the CD with the software and drivers, too? If not, you can download the drivers for this scanner, including the TWAIN stuff, at canon. Here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/y96xpt3 . On that page (it should be already on the tab that's called "Drivers & Downloads") you just need to use the drop down box to select which operating system you have, and then you can download the drivers.

It has a nice grayscale mode that my husband uses at 600 dpi. What I actually know about scanning and OCRing though, and how well this would do compared do other scanners, can be written on the head of a pin (and still leave room on the pinhead for thousands of angels to dance!) grin.
