For Sale: New Xerox Flat Bed Full SIZE LEGAL Page Scanner
		(8-bit scanner, 300dpi, 256 greyscale)
Model:  Xerox GS+

Note: This is not the 730GS model, but the industrial Heavy duty LEGAL
sized higher model.

I have three of these.  They are BRAND NEW.  The scanning area is a bit
bigger than the size of a LEGAL sheet of paper (9"x14.5").  These
scanners are cream-colored, and are built very ruggedly.  The top panel
of the scanner has a heavy-duty hinge on it.  I got the scanners from
someone who works at Xerox imaging.  They were recently discontinued,
and sold at an employee auction.  Xerox is still currently shipping OCR
software solutions with this scanner.

I'm including a copy of the software that originally shipped with the 
scanner.  This is MacImage, an image acquisition/editing program
developed by Xerox.  I'm also including AccuText, which is an OCR
package developed by Xerox for use with these and other scanners.  I've
used this software to scan in and read documents with 100% accuracy.  I
was impressed.  

The scanner is also controlled through a plug-in module that works with
PhotoShop.  It's real handy since the software I used to use it with was
real crappy and I had to import into PhotoShop anyhow.  Under the file
menu, all you need to do is choose ACQUIRE, and it brings in the image
automatically under PhotoShop.

Adjustable scanning densities.  It's twice as fast as the 730GS model.
Something called gamma frequencies are controllable. (?)  It has a park
mode for transportation.  Heavy-duty flip-top.

It connects through the SCSI port and can be configured with any SCSI
ID.  Original boxes, manual, and packing materials are included as well.

Looking in recent catalogues and magazines, I've seen the HP ScanJet IIP
selling for around $600 (300dpi, 8-bit, 256 Greys).  The AppleOneScanner
goes for a little more, although not much more, $700 (300dpi, 8-bit, 256
Greys).  Based on the current prices for new scanners, and the fact that
I'm including the scanning and OCR software,  I figure the Xerox scanner
would be worth at least $350 + shipping.

I'll give a thirty-day guarantee against failure.  The scanners are new,
they smell new, and they are spotless.  This is more a higher-end model,
than the Xerox Datacopy 730GS.

Let me know what you think.  I'm also open to trades.  You never know
what strange unwanted equipment I might be interested in.  Give me a try!
Send me a DETAILED list of what you have and how much you think it's worth.

Please email if you have even the slightest bit of interest!
