Message: <blockquote data-quote="reapersaurus" data-source="post: 1635795" data-attributes="member: 1194">Thanks, all. This is some of what I was hoping for.What HP Scanjet do you use? They have many models, don;t they?Rackir - The Fujitsu (as I've been told) is a piece of crap from the 20th century. AFAIK, the ScanPartner 15C is over 5 years old.It's very likely that the ADF needs repair - I don't know, and I don't use it. I'll try again to scan some next week.I find it hard to believe that there hasn't been something in the past 5 years that isn't significantly better than this old technologyBut from what I'm gathering, the industry has kind of gone past simple hi-speed document imaging, and morphed to more photographic scanning (with huge resolution, etc). But isn't Imaging a BIG business? What do those companies use for the hardware (my toughest decision).The software, I'm sure many would do the trick - the only way our Repair Orders will scan is if the operator makes a label and sticks it on the order, because it's mechanic's hand-written numbers (unable to OCR, of course).Currently, the scanner saves multiple repair order pages in one multi-page .tiff file (which is shockingly small in size, around 2 MB).They have always just used Kodak Imaging Professional and typed the RO #'s in the Comments field of the .tiff file. These comments are invisible to XP clients, yet can be Searched (Find File) by 98 clients.I know about the XP Index Service blindness to .tiff files and have modified the service, but the Comments filed is still invisible to XP.Anyone have recommendations for good hi-speed ADF scanners (around $1000 or less)?</blockquote>
