Selecting A Flatbed Scanner

So Where To Begin?

The scanner decision should ultimately boil down to what is actually needed—or will be needed—in any given production workflow. These needs should be articulated at the beginning of the selection process. The bottom line in purchasing a scanner is what it has always been: You get what you pay for. In other words, there is no way that a $1,000 scanner can compare favorably with an $8,000 scanner, much less a $40,000 model.
