[Shop-talk] scanner help

[Ronnie Day]

Plus 1 for VueScan. Ed is an incredible guy and the software simply works!
You can D/L it and see if/how it works. You'll get watermarks until you pay
for it but you'll know it works before you do. It was recommended by a
friend on the editing list I've been on since the mid '90s. I used it for
maybe 15 minutes and bought the lifetime licence. At some point Ed made it
cross-platform and my lifetime licence was grandfathered so I can scan
using my Brother MFC from any of my Macs or PCs. Inarguably the best $100 I
ever spent on software!
