Don't see why you can't use one of the multifunctions. TWAIN is TWAIN. But then, I don't use anything but retail products for scanning. So nless there's some technical reason you shouldn't use a all in one unit from walmart, I'd say go for it anyway. ----- Original Message ----- From: Monica Svopa To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, January 26, 2007 3:59 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] scanners Hello to all. I had spoken to Kurzweil yesterday and they had said that the All In One scanners do not work well with there software. So, based on this answer, what scanners are you all currently using or would recommend for me to buy. I'm getting a compter with windows XP. I'd appreciate any suggestions you may have. Thanks again in advance for your help. Monica
