Auto Scanner
If all those scanners, their maintenance and electricity costs around the school are getting you down, why not consolidate them into a single school-wide scanning station? HP’s ScanJet Enterprise 7000n is a stand-alone sheet-fed scanner that connects to a network and provides the hardware for scoring tests, archiving paper files and even scanning artwork. In other words, it can replace a dozen individual scanners in the typical school. The system can capture up to 600 by 600 dot per inch images, which are previewed on the 8.4-inch screen. With a one-year warranty, it will sell for $3,000 when it goes on sale this fall.
