Visioneer OneTouch 7300 USB Review

by

- The Visioneer OneTouch 7300 USB is an inexpensive, entry-level scanner that might be right for you--if you're willing to make a few compromises. Its optical resolution is 1200 dpi, whereas other small-office models have 2400-dpi (and higher) resolutions. But for converting documents and photos into digital formats, 1200 dpi is plenty of resolution, and we found that the 7300 produced very nice looking scans even without the higher horsepower. The 7300 scans only photo prints, documents, and other reflective items; it can't scan transparencies. On the positive side, it weighs a mere 3 pounds and doesn't require a power cord, making it even more portable. Five quick-start buttons are preset to scan, copy, e-mail, run optical character recognition, or trigger other common scanning tasks.
