    Lightbulb What kind of scanner do you use or recommend to scan doujinshi?

    I bought a couple of doujinshi online and plan on sharing it. Recommendations on what kind or type of scanner you use to scan your doujinshi. Anything else I need to know about doing it?

    The scanners are pretty much similar those days. I'm using HP AIO for some years, now I got an eprint, those wireless ones and I like. The only thing you need to know is to do it carefully or you can damage them.

    Obviously not, open the book place under scanner it is not always needed to add the lid and scan.. that is all.

    As for tips of scanners, there isn't much difference nowadays and you can check the previous threads we had about them with the search option.

    You should make sure the scanner is CCD type, so you don't have to excessively bend your books. CIS type scanners are pretty much a ripoff since not only you get the blur if you don't make the pages completely adhere to it, they may also get the colors off. Even if the resolution is higher, CIS quality is crap compared to CCD.
    When I bought mine, Epson used to have cheap CCD ones. I got an Epson Perfection v10.
