Hi Good question, I realized after I sent the e-mail that I implied that I had both, I have the 2080. But my investigations, as I remember it is that the newer model is a bit faster. they're great scanners. Tom ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaitlyn" <kaitlyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi, Yes the down side is that you must despine the book, but ask Nancy Hill about her optic-book, if I remember her purchase, before you accept it! And 
yes the 2580 is the replacement for the 2080 which I also have. Are you
using the newest driver? It's capture perfect 3, I think. Tom

HI Lora,

I'll jump in here. I have the DR2080C which it sounds like the 2580 has
replaced. I have had it for a year and it is a very good scanner for the
money. A year ago Feb it was going for about 600 but I am sure you can get 
it for less now. It's rated at 6 seconds a page which can be pushed some.
Since this was my first scanner I thought having the ADF would be great
which it is. The down side of it is that it is an ADF only. There are
books
at times that I just don't want to cut up so I have an OpticBook 3600 on
the
way for those times.

Hi Lora, If you don't mind removing the spines, the canon 2580 will scan
both sides and put anywhere from 10 to 20 pages a minute. That's 20 To 40
sides a minute depending on the resolution setting used. The cheapest
canon
will cost about 250 dollars as a refurbished machine,  on up. HTH Tom

then I think you will be happy with the Canon.



My current scanner is working just fine, but it's a little slow.  I'm
running Windows XP, and Open Book 7.02.  I'd like to get a new scanner,
one
that can scan a page in 15 seconds or so. Do these exist, do they cost a 
fortune, and does anyone have recommendations?  I'd also prefer a
document
feeder, so I can shred and scan as others do.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Lora
