I am in the process of doing the same. It takes about 12 to 14 minutes to scan 1 photo into the computer, which means the 5 photos you fit onto the printer takes over an hour to complete. Does a flat bed scanner do the same thing in less time?

Dan, on my HP Scanjet 4070 flatbed scanner(kind of old), I do 1 at a time, the scanning time is a lot less than the photo editing/resizing time, about 4-5 minutes per photo/slide. I try to limit the scanning sessions to 1/2 hr. or less, because frankly it's tiring on my eyes...



I don't think Dave will mind if I present this example of a davepa photo from my collection that was scanned on my flatbed.

This 1946 Seagrave 500/300 is still owned by Blain,PA. VFC.

Dave, do you remember what year you took this?
