[comp.graphics] Image Scanner for the Sun

baugh@hal.CSS.GOV (Nam Myoho Renge Kyo) (08/17/89)

	We're looking into purchasing a image scanner for a system
we're putting together, and are curious if anybody has experience
with the ScanVu-400, it's the only one we've found that has a 
SCSI connection.

	If anybody knows of another system, I'd be REAL interested 
in hearing about it. (though it has to be able to scan glossy pictures...)

Our requirements are : 	400 DPI (A MUST)
			FAST scan & transfer i.e. SCSI connection
			Some REASONABLE image storage format. (not JOE's 
				PROPRIETARY FORMAT)
			256 shades of grey 
			REASONABLE software library for image manlipulation
				or at least some software to provide this.

	Please e-mail and if there is interest I will summarize.

(I didn't cross post this to comp.sys.sun as of yet because I'm fixing
 a problem with our installation of news mailpaths file...so YES I do
 know I should post there too, but moderated groups are a problem currently,
 sigh....)
