I am curious to know if that scanner has the capacity to do auto contrast
scanning. I have a slimline Microtec scanner that was priced around the
same price. It is a nice scanner for the price, but getting the contrast
set right on that scanner is difficult, and the scanner will not work with
the auto contrast or dynamic threshold feature of Kurzweil1000.
