[sane-devel] picking a robust sheetfed scanner

[Frank Zago]

There is several scanners like that supported by SANE. That's
at least the Fujitsu, the Bell and Howell (in sane 1.07) and Panasonic
scanners (will be in sane 1.08). Only A few models are supported.
However this kind of scanner starts at about $2000. You can find some
used on ebay.
