To Agape, I don't know what long time users use but I could not afford a new, separate scanner but my Dell All-in-One Printer=Scanner-Fax-Copier works very nicely. I had to get instructions from Kurzweil on connecting them but the Kurzweil tech walked me through it. I don't know how it would do with more programs but I don't see why there should be a problem. I'll find out soon enough as my Kurzzweil won't last much longer and I will be looking for another free trial to use with the Dell. Good luck whatever way you go.

I am having trouble with mine and think it is dying. That might be why I lost my book I scanned in yesterday....it keeps locking up on me. Any suggestions? I am using XP windows and Jaws latest version and latest version of Kursweil. My scanner is an epson and I have never liked it.
