I want to purchase a scanner to archive some photos. I also want to have
the ability to use the OCR ability. I will only use occasionally and
therefore I will not need an expensive one. What would you suggets? I have
entertained the idea of HP, Canon, Visioneer and Epson.

Thanks for your repliues. If you could I would like to receive thru email if
possible.

Hi

I have an epson 2480 (99 euros)

Ocr is very reliable ( commits only minor mistakes that the software
itself marks for you, so you don't spend time spotting -just
correcting)

Scanning wise, i'm not an expert, but it's more than enough for
scanning prints both in terms of resolution and color accuracy.

That said, it's pretty sure that low end hp and canon models do also a
good job.

Ocr and print scanning are easy tasks nowadays. It's when it's time to
scan negatives when all these models do a poor job

regards
