And please walkthrough the process so I may see whether to get one. Well last time I read about Paton around 2000 I presume : https://www.dantestella.com/technical/f235plus.html only 6Mpix but for quick and good scan great. He scanned 12,000 of his.
I don't plan on doing a walkthrough - the only reason I even touched a Pakon scanner was for development/testing purposes - but there's an abundance of information online that I'd encourage you to seek out if you're interested.
