Hi Ali.

That's interesting. Which scanner are you using in the LiDe range? I'm using the LiDe200 which admittedly is their range topping model with OpenBook, I get near perfect accuracy every time I scan. Of course it depends on what your scanning, the scanner's calibration settings such as lighting and contrast and the type and complexity of the material you're trying to recognise. Have you tried using K1000's automatic settings mode where it will attempt to find the best settings through multiple scan passes? Finally and probably most obviously, have you checked to see whether there is a newer version of the driver for the scanner available? Incramental updates to the ScanGear software have yielded noticeable improvements in scanning accuracy.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Thanks Ibrahim,
I am looking for a scanner for the desktop. I have one of those Cannon lid
scanner.  It is good for portable use, but, I do not get good accuracy, at
the most, 97%.
I mostly use K1000 V12.

Hi Ali.

Is this for a desktop or would you like something portable? I currently use
the Canon LiDe range of scanners, they are compact, USB powered meaning no
mains lead and start from around £25.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Good afternoon all,
can anyone recommend me a good a4 scanner that would work with OCR,
especially with K1000?  The scanners I have do not get the accuracy I
would
like to get.  What specifications do I need to look for if I am going to
get
one that would work fine?
