curtis New Member Canada 40 Posts	Posted 12/01/2010 11:44 pm Hey everyone - just got a new all in one HP officejet 6500A plus scanner and thought I should try it out. I didn't want to waste too much time in fooling around - two coins were scanned in their protectos and to make the file sizes more manageable, I just screen grabbed the scan's (I'm on a MAC) As you can see, there is some celo glare. Let me know what you think.... Thanks in advance! Curt Report this Post to the Staff
