Your best bet is to take a look at SANE because the available software is
going to be the driving force in your selection.

The SANE homepage is located here: http://www.mostang.com/sane

Take a look at the backends sections...

I'm planning on buying my father a Microtek E3 with a 10 page ADF attachment.
The whole rig runs about $270, comes with the SCSI card, and SANE supports
both the scanner and the ADF....

I've got an E3 on my Advansys UW940, and it runs damned well under both
Linux and 95.. My only complaint about it is that the light is on the entire
time that the scanner is on, instead of only when I'm activly scanning.. Of
course, this is the only colour scanner I've owned, so maybe this is the
norm..

Still, great little scanner, and you can't beat the price.

1. ocr linux scanner: ocr support for linux scanners?

 I'm looking for a scanner/OCR combination for linux.

I don't want to spend a bundle.

I know that vividata ocr shop can be used with linux.
http://www.vividata.com/scanshop.html

But the scanners they support seem only to be high end, and most of
them I can't even find prices for. (maybe they are out of date).

Does anyone have experiences with running ocr shop on linux? Are there
any open source ocr attempts? rj
