[QUOTE="cpn chris, post: 1509254, member: 299977"] Hey all, I know the first thing anyone will maybe want to say is get a new scanner. Not an option for this application. The scanner is a Xerox 620s, and I need the durability and accuracy of this thing (they sold for $17k when new.) So- anyone have experience with adapting an old SCSI scanner to USB? What cable is the best? A cable that adapts, or an adapter and a USB cable? I really don't know, but this project is super important for everyone, and it has to be ACCURATE. I am archiving print media for use in a genetically intelligent database, and there is little room for error. At all. And if anyone knows the best OCR software for this project, I am all ears- if need be I will build a windoze box for exclusive use of like TWAIN/PictBridge even though I hate to. Thanks in advance, ~cc [/QUOTE]
