<DIV>hi Allan</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks so much for your reply !!!!!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A little more info -:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>i am going with the idea of dropping the windows based scanning system loading Linux </DIV>
<DIV>on my severs and workstations and looking for a linux based high volume scan interface </DIV>
<DIV>where i can save the documents as multipage PDF and slot them as blob in the database </DIV>
<DIV>with the METADATA using Mysql as the DB and i develop my system around that ????</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My scanners requirements are page size upto and including A3 black and White</DIV>
<DIV>200dpi multipage PDF (imbedded metadata) and volumes as mentioned below,</DIV>
<DIV>At the moment i am leasing about 200 Canon dr9080c 's. YES !! the Fijisu does</DIV>
<DIV>look like a strong option to go for outright purchase.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>many thanks for your help so far </DIV>
<DIV>and awaiting your speedy response in this regard</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV style="COLOR: #000000">2008/10/31 Rod De Beer <REDeBeer@dla.gov.za>:<BR>> Hi there !!<BR>><BR>> My name is Rod De Beer and i would like to know if there is a document<BR>> scanning frontend<BR>> for high volume document scan/store/retrieve approx 5000 pages per scanner<BR>> per day x 20<BR>> scanners?<BR><BR>Most any command line frontend could handle the speed, eikazo probably<BR>could too. The big question is where/how do you want them stored. For<BR>that, you might need something custom written.<BR><BR>> and which production document scanners are picked up by SANE?<BR>><BR>> please help !!!! i want to completely move away from windows !!!!!<BR><BR>The second question is easier. Sane already contains a backend for the<BR>big fujitsu machines (fi-5900, etc), they are well supported. I also<BR>have two alpha backends for big Kodak and big Canon machines, but<BR>those are pretty rough yet.<BR><BR>Do you already own scanners?<BR><BR>allan<BR><BR>><BR>> many thanks<BR>> Rod De Beer<BR>> redebeer@dla.gov.za<BR>> --<BR>> sane-devel mailing list: sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org<BR>> <A href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel">http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel</A><BR>> Unsubscribe: Send mail with subject "unsubscribe your_password"<BR>> to sane-devel-request@lists.alioth.debian.org<BR>><BR><BR><BR><BR>-- <BR>"The truth is an offense, but not a sin"<BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
