Hi,
this is not too much Arch related, but maybe there are some analogue photographers on the list who can give me some hints? I am looking for a software for my Epson V700 Photo scanner which is able to scan in batch mode. I installed iscan last night, which is the official Epson software for Linux, but it seems to be a bad version of the software for Mac or Windows. There is no batch mode at all and when I tried to select one photo from the scanner the selection always moved away and I wasn't able to move it back to the picture... :(
I know there is VueScan for Linux, but I already tried it for Mac and I didn't like it at all. The UI lacks any comfort and the results where pretty bad. I know there are lots of people who use VueScan and are very happy about it, but it seems that you have to spent much more time with the tool than I am willing to. I don't take too many analogue photos at the moment, I work full-time and I have two kids. There is no use for a software where I have to spent a few weekends until I found the correct workflow. ;)
TIA, Arvid
XSane is a very good choice I suppose. Right now I don't know. But it used to do batch scans for my HP Officejet 4200 IIIRC. -- Jayesh Badwaik stop html mail | always bottom-post www.asciiribbon.org | www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html
