[nabs-l] question about purchasing a scanner to scan class texts

Osmond,

I would recommend the HP 8600. This is an all-in-one scanner, printer, faxer
and copier, and since it has a paper feed, it can do mass-scanning. Another
great feature of the HP 8600 printers is that you can scan a document and do
OCR on it all from within the built-in program for the program and without
using a program like Kurzweil or OpenBook.

Good luck and hope this helps,

Chris

Subject: [nabs-l] question about purchasing a scanner to scan class texts

Hi All,

The last time I got a new system was in 2005. My scanner which I use to scan
books for classes is about six years old and rather slow. I am looking to
upgrade both my system and my scanner. I am wondering what type of scanner
people use to do mass scanning e.g. 25-30 books a school term.

Thanks,
Osmond
