I have an epson 4490. It doesn't like traid paperbacks, but with a little patients they can be scanned.

People love the book edge scanner from Plustech. I believe they are reasonable. Epson also puts out good reliable scanners though I do not know model numbers off hand. If you go with the Plustech, you want the less expensive software bundled with it. The more expensive version does things useful to sighted folks but not us though i do not specifically know what those things are.
Hope this helps.

I'm thinking about purchasing a scanner. I have OCR software, but haven't had a scanner for about five years. So, I'm a bit clueless. I'm not looking for one with an ADF, nor am I looking for a multi-function machine. Essentially, I'm looking for something that is simple, reliable, and inexpensive. I would appreciate any suggestions regarding what to get, or what to avoid. Please feel free to contact me privately. Many thanks.
