Sunil, I use the Canon LiDE 60 with K1000, and have no problem with it. Its powered directly from a USB port, requiring no extra cables.

I'm going to need one now though, and am after something that can handle print from books, press releases, and clear photo copies of fairly large documents. I'm planning to get K1000 and someone has told me that the Epson V100 scanner should be up to the task. If anyone has a better suggestion for a scanner or package that might be better, I'd love to hear it.thanks very much
