Epson scanner

[Juaanita Marttin]

I’m thinking about buying the Epson V33 scanner recommended for the Abby 
software for the Mac.  I looked on Amazon and I see the scanner for $82.  It 
says it’s a photo scanner.  Is this the right one?
It doesn’t say that it’s a flatbed scanner but I assume it is.  I’d just like a 
little clarification before I make the purchase.
Thanks.

I have and use the Epson V33 and it works great with Fine reader pro or 
express. I thought they were out of production, but I guess not - either that 
or yours is a left over. Either way for the price you can’t go wrong.. They’re 
all called photo scanners these days - it just means you can put a picture on 
the glass and scan it. It’s kind of like calling computers “digital computers”, 
its a marketing double speak thing.

Okay.  That’s good to know.
I plan to scan my snail mail and my Time magazine with it.  How well does it 
work with books and magazines?
Also, when you’re scanning, do you use a button on the Mac keyboard, or a 
button on the scanner itself?

Re: Epson scanner

[Phil Halton]

It’s not the scanner that determines quality of scan so much as the scanning 
software. Most all scanners are the same as far as DPI capability. As far as 
books and other materials, that’s also a function of the scanning software and 
is not dependent on the scanner. Finereader Pro does a good job of scanning 
complex documents like multiple columns and so forth.
And, I run the scanner completely from within the software interface of 
FineReader Pro. The scanner is pretty bare bones and has four buttons that I 
never bother with except for the power on/off button which has a little dimple 
on it for identification purposes.

Scanning with the Epson scanner and Fine Reader

[Juaanita Marttin]

I just got my new Epson scanner and I installed the Fine Reader software.  I 
think I have the settings where I want them but how do you just scan in stuff 
like snail mail.  I did a test document but how do you listen to what you’ve 
scanned in?  I’m coming from a K1000 and Windows environment.

Re: Scanning with the Epson scanner and Fine Reader

[Phil Halton]

you read the scanned material in another app like Textedit. I have things setup 
so that when I finish a scan, FineReader converts the pages and then opens 
textedit with the scanned document for reading.
There is no facility for reading scanned documents inside FineReader as far as 
I know. It is just for scanning and converting to text.

Re: Scanning with the Epson scanner and Fine Reader

Pages came up automatically.  I wish I had known that you couldn’t scan and 
read with Fine Reader and the scanner before I purchased them.

I guess that’s what happens when one assumes.
