I am currenly using an HP Desktjet F380 that was being thrown out. If I ever have to replace it, I will just buy one of the many many MFPs that are for sale at the thrift store. ------------------------------- TCDB Collection Leaderboard spots: #1 Alexei Zhamnov #1 Shane Doan #1 Phoenix Coyotes #1 Arizona Coyotes

I use the scanner at the local library. I go pretty much weekly anyways, so popping down to the computer 'lab' for ten minutes isn't much of a hassle. Plus, didn't have to buy something I'd never use outside of card scans. Well, I guess comic scans as well.

Ian how many cards can you scan at one time with the Epson V550?

I use the Epson Perfection V550, think it was around $150 at the time years ago.

It's got the depth to handle focus on objects that aren't only against the glass, so if you're scanning graded cards or thick patch cards, everything stays in focus, it looks great. Definitely a worthy investment if you plan on scanning your favorite parts of your collection in.

Take a look at my submitted images to see some of the results:

Always looking for Blackhawk hockey, Notre Dame Football, White Sox and Bears Stuff. I have a plaque in my card room that says, "I could have been a millionaire but my mom threw out my baseball cards". How apropos!!! Collecting Chicago Blackhawks Hockey, Doug Wilson Hockey, Chicago Bears Older, Notre Dame Football in their college jerseys and Chicago White Sox.

Posted about it here. https://thecollectivemind.blogspot.com/2022/12/i-am-now-scanning-machine.html

Won't do thick cards, or some die-cuts, but scans front & back in a few seconds. Combine with PhotoScape to rotate slightly when needed.

I'm continually entering tradeable inventory. Full want lists are at https://thecollectivemind.blogspot.com/p/baseball-wants.html Use the green tabs to navigate.

Have entered 1994 thru 2021 baseball and 2009 thru 2020 football so far. Don't have many newer than 2020 except A&G in baseball, and very little beyond 2019 in football. My extra hockey is older than that.

The best I have for a tradelist otherwise is https://thecollectivemind.blogspot.com/search/label/Disperse%20the%20Hoard
