Good flatbed scanner

***Corey*** · 02-18-2006, 04:44 PM

My son needs a good scanner.
Not the best, not the cheapest either.

He will mainly be scanning in drawings, and his mom/stepdad would be scanning in receipts.

They do not need an all in one like I have, as they have laserjets for printers now, but no scanner.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

We have an older hp 6200 series scanner. It was big dollar when I bought it, but especially back then it was fast. It is still a great scanner and there are a lot of them floating around on ebay. It has scsi (preferred) and usb connections.

I have 2 HP Scanjet 4600's. I got the 2nd on closeout from Buy.com for $40. These are the ones with the clear window so you can scan face up and see what you are doing. They work great.
