Unbelievable Price. If you're looking for a school scanner that has very high quality (1200 x 1200 dpi resolution) at a very good price, this Canon flatbed scanner is for you!  It works on both PCs and Macs and has a SCSI interface (the SCSI card and cables come with the scanner), and is super fast (as only SCSI can provide), super high quality (state-of-the art by Canon), and super priced (low, that is).  The innovative CanoScan FB 1200S features state-of-the-art VAROS™ technology, delivering true optical 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution at a price far less than comparable machines. Thanks to Canon innovation, you get real 36-bit color depth for greater dynamic range and more realistic tones; and a convenient start button to instantly access software, all in a compact desktop design. It's a significant breakthrough for any school, computer lab, studio, home or office requiring high-quality scanning capability.</div> <bR> <div> <B>A major advancement in scanning technology.</B></div> <div> VAROS, Canon's exclusive Variable Refraction Optical System, achieves true optical 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution. This system automatically activates when scanning at resolutions greater than 600 dpi, capturing data that would otherwise be lost on a lesser scanner. The result is that the 1200S achieves brilliant tones at a dramatically higher resolution in less space and at a lower cost.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Exceptional versatility.</B></div> <div> The CanoScan FB 1200S delivers the versatility and performance you'd expect from a much higher-priced machine. Install the dual-platform SCSI card (included) into your Mac or PC and breeze through text and photo scanning - and manipulation - with Adobe® Photoshop® 5.0 LE and TextBridge® Plus. Scan film, from 35mm to 8" x 10" sheets, using the optional film adapter unit. Add the automatic document feeder for multi-page scanning. Real quality for real scanning!  About $149.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> 1-800-OK-CANON</div> <bR> <div> CCSI Headquarters</div> <div> 2995 Redhill Avenue</div> <div> Costa Mesa, California 92626</div> <div> Mac Products:</div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.ccsi.canon.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.ccsi.canon.com/"><U><U>www.ccsi.canon.com/</U></U></A></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://www.ccsi.canon.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.ccsi.canon.com"><U><U>www.ccsi.canon.com</U></U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.estore.ccsi.canon.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.estore.ccsi.canon.com"><U><U>www.estore.ccsi.canon.com</U></U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.canonprintplanet.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.canonprintplanet.com"><U><U>www.canonprintplanet.com</U></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://www.ccsi.canon.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.ccsi.canon.com/"><U><B><IMG SRC="10c5a130.jpg" border=0 width="90" height="19" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 53 WIDTH="537"><div> <A HREF="id41_m.htm" TITLE="Scanners Printers"><U>Back To Top</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="25f0b120.png" border=0 width="11" height="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 588 WIDTH="537"><div> <A HREF="http://www.agfahome.com/product/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.agfahome.com/product/"><U><B><IMG SRC="0e020890.jpg" border=0 width="288" height="137" ALIGN="RIGHT" HSPACE="2" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.agfahome.com/product/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.agfahome.com/product/"><U><B>Agfa SnapScan 1212u</B></U></A><B> </B></div> <div> <B>USB Flatbed Scanner</B></div> <div> For starters, this is one of the best all-around scanners for the school and educational environment.

The ability to scan at an optical resolution of 600 x 1200 dpi means you can create images to match most any output you're likely to need. For photographs, Web pages, and general printing applications, these resolutions are certainly adequate. These days, scanners come bundled with application software and the SnapScan is no exception.  In addition to ScanWise, both Corel PrintHouse and PageKeeper are included.  PageKeeper is a document management package that includes a limited edition of Caere's OCR software, which turns  scanned documents into editable text (with a word processor or other text application).  "Agfa software is famous in the industry as the best in the business for color management BEFORE the scan," says George Cole in The iMac, " this means less time in Photoshop color correcting."  This is an outstanding flatbed scanner, ideal for the school and educational setting.</div> <div> Under $100. from most vendors.  </div> <div> <B>Also available in Green and Translucent Blue</B></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.agfa.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.agfa.com/"><U><B>Agfa</B></U></A></div> <div> <B>100 Challenger Road</B></div> <div> <B>Ridgefield Park, NJ 07660</B></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="http://www.agfahome.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.agfahome.com/"><U><B><IMG SRC="0fb02250.jpg" border=0 width="258" height="37" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 53 WIDTH="537"><div> <A HREF="id41_m.htm" TITLE="Scanners Printers"><U>Back To Top</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="25f0b120.png" border=0 width="11" height="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 330 WIDTH="537"><div> <B><IMG SRC="0f829910.jpg" border=0 width="297" height="145" ALIGN="LEFT" HSPACE="2" VSPACE="0"></B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#FFFFFF" FACE="Century Schoolbook" ><A HREF="http://www.lexmark.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.lexmark.com"><U><B>LexMark Z52</B></U></A></FONT></div> <div> Very likely the best inkjet printer for the money!  Unbelieveably easy to install and get up and running in minutes, right out of the box.

CardScan simply takes your business cards and turns them into valuable contact information. Here's how:  CardScan auto-senses that a business card is in the scanner tray and initiates scanning. Using Optical Character Recognition (OCR), CardScan Software reads the letters and symbols on the card. New Version 5 Software now reads international and two-sided cards, and still reads U.S. and Canadian cards with amazing accuracy. Then CardScan Software identifies what the information on the card represents. Is it a name, a title, a fax number or an e-mail address?  AccuCard enables CardScan to correctly parse and sort the card's data into the correct fields. AccuCard is what tells the software that John Hancock Mutual Life is not a person named "John", but is instead the company that this person represents. Once AccuCard has sorted the data - a process that takes only a second - all the scanned and sorted information from the contact is deposited into an electronic Rolodex-style database. Once your business cards are in a CardScan database, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it!  Save time searching for contacts using QuickSearch by typing only a few characters of anything you can remember about that contact. Perform other routine tasks such as automatically launching a pre-addressed e-mail with just one click. With CardScan Software on your desktop, you can create categories, add notes to any card, sort your contacts any way you like and much, much more.  With new AutoSync, scan or edit contacts and CardScan automatically syncs with your contact manager. You don't have to do a thing. AutoSync with Outlook, ACT!, Notes and more. CardScan still synchronizes at the touch of a button with Palm connected organizers and Windows CE devices.  Plus, new features include synchronization of categories in Palm organizers and support for Psion palmtops, Franklin Planner Software, and even digital mobile phones (using Paragon's FoneSync Software). </div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="mailto:sales @corex.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:sales @corex.com"><U>sales @corex.com</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <B>800-942-6739</B></div> <div> Corex Technologies Corporation</div> <div> 810 Memorial Drive</div> <div> Cambridge, MA 02139</div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.cardscan.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.cardscan.com"><U><B><IMG SRC="107603e0.png" border=0 width="96" height="62" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="id41_m.htm" TITLE="Scanners Printers"><U>Back to Top</U></A></div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="0550b120.png" border=0 width="11" height="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
