    Seeking batch-scanning solution

    I have a couple of questions... I used to work in a real estate office, and one of the most popular machines there wasn't the PC. It was an MFP (multi-function peripheral; a machine that can print, copy, scan and FAX). Whether you had a single page to scan, or 25 pages, the MFP was a handy and...

    iPhone 7/8 plus or new X as a 35mm negative film scanner

    I know it is an odd question but I thought that there must be some analogue enthusiasts in here! Scanning 35mm negatives with a DSLR is a viable strategy for a high resolution and optimal way to make negatives into positives and digital files. I wonder whether or not an iPhone with dual lens...

    Any recommendation for a scanner that can send scans directly to iPad (art scans) ?

I'm considering getting an iPad Pro as my home computer since my 2009 Macbook Pro is on its last legs, my workplace could now provide me with a laptop for my day work, and...

    Problem when scanning to PDF with Sierra 10.12.2

    It seems impossible to scan any document and getting a PDF doc in a correct weight when using Sierra X10.12.2. I use an Epson XP-760 with an iMac 27". Still now, scanning was really simple and efficient, scanning an A4 document at 200 ppp allowed me to get a PDF doc with a reasonable weight...

    Banding on photo scans?

    I thought maybe someone in this subforum might know what's going on here: my brand new Canon Lide 220 scanner is producing jpegs that look like this zoomed in: You see the light vertical bands? The source prints are glossy without texture. Resolution is set to 600dpi. The scanner is plugged...

    Scanner vs. iPhone for capturing old photographs

    We have a LOT of old photographs (and negatives) stored in boxes. I'm talking about thousands and thousands of pictures taken with 35mm of my family, and some heirloom photos from extended family that have passed way. Years ago I bought a fairly expensive Epson V750 Pro scanner and tried to...

    Office Document Scanning- What do you Use?

    I've had a Scansnap 1300i document scanner for a couple of years now. It's does a good job, but it's got one area where it could be improved, document recognition. I scan my documents to a folder that is subdivided into sub categories. The way the Scansnap software works, after it's...

    FireWire scanner not recognized in 10.11.3

    I'm having a problem with an Epson Expression 1680 scanner and OS X 10.11.3. The scanner is connected to my Mac (mid 2010 Mac Pro) via FireWire. The FireWire port on the scanner is FW 400. I use a FW400 --> FW800 adapter on the cable to plug it into my Mac. The scanner is not recognized by the...

    Filling the driver-gap for legacy hardware

    Last week I came across a pair of old TravelScanPro-scanners I used in my office nearly a decade ago. Tried to hook them to my iBookG4 but obviously there haven't been any drivers provided for Macs at any time. A few weeks ago I purchased a copy of Windows2000pro to be installed with VirtualPC7...
