Dear volunteers:
I know I'm testing the extent of patience you have but I would like to share
a fact sheet about scanners that were included in the package of my demo of
Kurzweil 3000. Since this program is like a twin of k1000 somewhat, they
provided a list that I know will be of utility for you.
Here it is
Kurzweil Educational Systems
Scanners for use with Kurzweil 3000
Whether or not you presently own a scanner, if you are considering the
purchase Kurzweil 3000 it makes sense to check which models work best. Not all
scanners are created equal and some give less than perfect results when
scanning,
Some are too slow, some t)only scan in black and white, and others just don't
work well at all.
For a list of scanners we have tested with Kurzweil 3000 I f you are looking
to purchase a new scanner. Take a look al the list below of scanners we
recommend and those to avoid. Scanner we recommend buying:
