Hi all
Just thought I'd put my two Penarth in and say that I have had an Epson for
nearly three years and not had any probs with it but then again, I suppose
experience is a subjective thing.
Regards.

I use a Canon scanner with Onmipage and I've had no trouble with it. It's
very portable and it just plugs in to the USB socket on the side of my
laptop. I can't remember what model it is now as I've had it for a couple
of years but I use it regularly and I've had no trouble with it.
Interesting comments about the Epson scanner though.
Sue.

Hi Tristram,
Some of the reasons I'm looking at Canon scanners is 1, size, since I
intend carrying it around with me 2, they are powered through the USB2
lead, and 3, reliability, since my Epson only lasted eighteen months.
Do you know any other model that matches those requirements?
Cheers
Dave
The only matters of interest here are probably speed, price and its size
for intended task. Nearly all OCR takes place whether Openbook or
Kurzweil or whatever at about 300 or perhaps 400 DPI and perhaps in
colour to push the boat out a little further, way below the maximum
optical resolution of any scanner currently available let alone software
assisted interpolative resolution.
The Canon machines on the whole have not been known for their speed on
OCR applications. We recommend the Epson scanners for speed and general
compatability with Kurzweil 1000 and I know FS have a similarly good
report about the Epson scanners for Openbook as well.
Regards.
