They work great. When they break someday, we will replace them with XP machines. We are stopping with XP. Vista and all that other Microcrap OS is garbage. That company is living on Bill Gates' monopoly. They are throwing it away slowly but surely. It is unfortunate that there is no way to run VFP on Linux. We would jump immediately. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Almada" <davidalm...@sbcglobal.net> To: "'ProFox Email List'" <profox@leafe.com> Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 4:58 PM Subject: RE: [NF] Fast scanner I use a Brother MFC-7345N and the scanning multiple pages worked great and loads the software automatically when I used Vista. But When I use Windows 7 the software doesn't load automatically and I can only do one page scan at a time. I was on the phone with brother for hours and they were not able to fix this.

We have no plans to change. We use the software that came with it. OmniPage. I think we did upgrade the software in the past 3 or 4 years. I recommend the Brother brand - low cost and reliable. We use the auto document sheet feeder a lot and it never fails (as long as you remember to remove the staples) In the past we have had 2 Canon printer/scanners and the auto document feed broke on both. Canon refused to fix it even though they were still under the 1 year warrantee. We will never buy anything with a Canon brand again. ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Harvey" <jhar...@hanoverpa.com> To: "'ProFox Email List'" <profox@leafe.com> Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 8:31 AM Subject: [NF] Fast scanner The company is considering scanning documents at our horse sale next November, and we are looking for a fast scanner with a small footprint. Fujitsu has the ScanSnap series, and they look reasonable. The models in this line have a 20-25 ppm speed, which seems fast. It would be nice to have a model that allows you to name the individual scans and send them to a specified folder. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the Fujitsu models, or other brands. James E Harvey M.I.S.
