The Calcomp cost around $11,000 and included the scanning software. We've scanned automotive prints 36" wide X 10 ft long. You're limited by the amount of ram in your system. A C-size print scanned at 400dpi in .tif format results in a 7.5MB file. However, we use AutoCAD and GTX RasterCAD to clean up the image and the size shrinks down to 92KB when saved.

John,
What is the price range for these scanners and how large are the files once
scanned?
Thanks,
Todd Anderson

We've been using a Calcomp ScanPlus III 400T and haven't had any problems
with it. Maximum scan width is 36".

Subject: [Vantage] [OT] Large Document scanners
Can anyone give a recommendation regarding the purchase of a Large Document
Scanner? We have paper drawings from Customers up to 4 feet (D size??) that
we would like to begin scanning so we can throw away the paper and email
rather than fed-ex.
Can anyone point me to a cost-effective, reliable scanner for this purpose?
