I need to get a good mid-high end scanner. High resolution!!! Does anyone have any suggestions? I want great scans and a scanner that can scan a graded card BGS new glossy all the way to a PSA vintage BW card. For raw cards of any type and Graded cards of any type.

Please let me know what you suggest.

I am "in need".

Thanks!

I'm assuming you are using some version of Windows. In my case, I didn't buy a scanner but one of the combo multi-function machines. I have a laser printer that I use for most printing and now I also have a color inkjet printer if needed to print photos.

Canon MX372 cost me $50 at Fry's and it does up to 1200 dpi x 2400 dpi scanning

Does it have a hinged scan cover? So that the scanner top sits on the graded cards. Instead of on a slant bc the cards are too thick for it to close?

I have always been a fan of the Epson all in one's.

I have a work force 2500 or 2600 series (2 years old)

Qulaity is good. Hinged cover. You can always not close the cover and cover with white poster board

Here is a scan from it, though resized after scanning., Most scanner have an issue with Graded cards and focus.

What scanners make graded cards look like this? This scan is awesome!

I have an Epson Perfection V300 Photo Scanner that does graded like that. It handles depth/focus very well.

My only problem is that it does the lines on Chrome Refractors.

I really like the Kodak all in one.... ESP series

Here's an example of the Epson Perfection V300 (and I'm using these cards just so no one can ever accuse me of using a scanner thread to show off )

Thanks.... Those scans look great...

Anybody else have any suggestions? I want it to scan 11x17 and be able to scan graded like the post of the harper.
