Hi Jeff, Was it demonstrated properly? It is quite simple to use if you use the tactile mat that comes with it. Hovercam is one of the fastest scanning methods I know.

They are just the size of an A4 page and power from the computer via USB. Very slim too. If you only wanted to use with K1000 and you had version 13 of K1000 then there is a hover cam now available from Sight & Sound. ----- Original Message ----- From: jeff flint <mailto:jeffflint15@xxxxxxxxx> To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2012 10:59 AM Subject: [access-uk] Scanners Hi all, I have been using an ancient scanner big and clunky. What I liked about the old Epsom was not only could I use it with Kurtzeil, but I could photo-copy using it straight to the printer. My old Epsom is now dead, suggestions for easy perhaps smaller scanner easy for totally blind to use. Jeff
