My scanner does not have any options besides dpi, color/grayscale, and very general options like that. Anyone have any affordable recommendations for a good scanner to use to contribute to the site?

Canon's LiDE series is a good choice.

They are really good for the money (starting about $60.00 USD) and they don't required wall power.

Jup I always used a LiDE to scan. Unfortunately the newer ones only support the new and "improved" Scanning Toolbox software which is utter crap.

Maybe finding a used LiDE 65 us a good idea.. thats what i used for a few years.. I now use a Epson Artisan 710 AIO that has a good built in scanner
