Review: The Perfect Scanner for a Big Job - Recently, my sister loaned me a notebook with 1,022 type written pages of my grandmother's diary. Before our mom passed, she had typed it from the handwritten diary stemming from 1932 to 1975 when granny passed on. I wanted to scan it into the computer so everyone in the family could enjoy reading it. If I was to attempt that using my flatbed scanner it would take forever. So, I reached for good ole desertcart. I had no idea which scanner to get so I went with desertcart Favorite which was this scanner. Some of the reviews mentioned it uses a built-in program, when you plug in the USB it shows up as a USB drive and there is an EXE program there. That's different than a lot of scanners that require installing software on your computer. Personally, I liked this way better. It was so simple to use and no fussing with drivers or whatever. I think it's brilliant, especially for someone like who just needs to get a project done. The scanner worked perfectly! It scanned both sides which I needed since mom had typed on both sides of the sheets. It was pretty fast too. I received the package on my doorstep at 11AM as promised by desertcart and I was all set up and running by around noon. I took my time, I wanted to be careful. I ran a couple of test runs. I loved that you can put about 60 pages at a time in and it scans them then you put the next 60 in and it adds those on to the PDF. I didn't count the pages, I just guessed. I noticed that a couple of times I put more than 60 in. In one case I put 92 pages in but it worked fine anyway. I was completely done with grandma's diary by around 2PM! And have the PDF up on Google drive and everyone is having fun reading it. So cool. I guess I am the official scanner person now because a cousin sent me a memoir manuscript our grandpa did. More scanning! Ha. No problem. Review: Very high quality scans. - Works well and easy to set up, Very high quality scans, It also has a lot of settings and ways to meet all the needs I have,
