I need a scanner that doesn't need to connect to a PC

sueKay · 12-29-2006, 01:13 AM

Hi there!

I've got a problem with my computer's operating system that doesn't allow me to install some hardware. (I'll be getting this fixed though)

In the meantime, I'm looking for a flatbed scanner that doesn't need a PC to operate. I'd be ideally looking for one that I could scan pictures in, before transferring the files via a USB pen.

Do they exist?

Check out the Epson CX5000. It is a scanner-printer combination and has slots to plug in memory cards for direct print out's without the use of a computer. Walmart has these for less than $100 but buy extra ink, those provided are nearly empty.

Also Epson CX6000 which is I beleive current model, it also has a 2.5 in LCD screen for some editing of photo, supports pict bridge and also has card reader as well as print, copy, and scan (no fax). My daugher has one and loves it.
