Each has its own unique purpose. <br /><br />The Canon P-150 handles photocopies really well and doesn't make the annoying adjustments that my flatbed scanner does. But, there is no way I would put an archival document into the sheet feed scanner. :)<br /><br />Loved your post on organization structures and incorporating NGS recos into your digital organization system. I am almost entirely digital now but I also have copies of almost everything in paper files as well. There are too many crashed hard drives in my past.Liz Strattonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355785887810653358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096878463388762735.post-37846394680873202822011-11-22T23:01:10.595-05:002011-11-22T23:01:10.595-05:00I LOVE my Flip-Pal.

Now I'm trying to explain to my husband why I also need a scanner with a paper feeder, that will also upload to Evernote. No, I'm not high maintenance....at least not in the usual sense.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096878463388762735.post-2015803157493895252011-11-14T16:54:05.906-05:002011-11-14T16:54:05.906-05:00Heather, Scanfest is great fun.

Since the Flip-Pal stores the photos as JPGs, I'll need to remember to convert them to TIFs on import. Hope to see you on the 20th.Liz Strattonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355785887810653358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096878463388762735.post-50172323973472054472011-11-14T16:48:12.329-05:002011-11-14T16:48:12.329-05:00I love the hint about the backing sheet.

I should join the next scanfest, it sounds like fun!Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096878463388762735.post-1276243319370671352011-11-09T09:42:56.620-05:002011-11-09T09:42:56.620-05:00Kathy,

How do you do that so all can see? Are you on google+?

They were too faint to produce a legible copy and benefited tremendously from a little boost.<br /><br />My son has a combo printer/scanner that typically creates pretty good copies/scans. I like the extra control and features I get with my standalone scanner - especially the trays for scanning slides.Liz Strattonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355785887810653358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9096878463388762735.post-81275083989486575872011-11-08T13:17:29.133-05:002011-11-08T13:17:29.133-05:00Sounds like a fun time to me.

It does everything I need it too...and now with joining in on Sepia Saturday I am scanning things right out of family albums ....or if I get copies from the Minnesota History Center I just scan the photo and presto it's on my computer or I can delete it too!Karen S.http://twincitiesblather.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
