This scanner scans 25 pages a minute and scans bought sides of the page at the same time. It costs between $700 and $800 US. The reason I have to use such a machine is that I am scanning textbooks for my college classes. Some of those are 1300 pages long. There are lower priced options if a person is scanning single sided pages or if high speed is not a concern. One thing to consider is to take the number of seconds it takes to scan a page and multiply it times the number of pages in your average document you would want to scan. This gives a little bit of a view of how long it will take for your normal scan job. Just my thoughts.
