Most of us use kurzweil or open book to scan with. There are lesser ones out there but those two are the best. ----- Original Message ----- From: Traci Evans To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, September 07, 2009 5:35 AM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] scanning books Hi all I finally stopped putting off the inevitable and bought a new scanner. I had the hp officejet 5610 I got tired of printing blank pages no matter how many times I realigned the printer heads and changed the cartriages and tried toruble shooting. I purchased the HP 4680 I think. I don't have the confirmagtion email in front of me and haven't received the all in one yet. What my question is do I need aditional software to scan books and submit them for proofing? I'd like to contribute as I am an avid a book reader as most on here. I recently rejoined Black Expressions with the sole purpose of donating the book.. I did not see any books by Wahida clark waiting to be scanned and I just read one out of a series of her books which is available on bookshare. Thanks.
