Sandy,

I've heard good things about the Epson 800 series flatbeds recently, the
software it ships with is excellent. They were around $800 last I looked.
For output you should look into the methods used by David Fokos or Dan
Burkholder. Dan has a great book available and David has a paper on the
Bostick-Sullivan website. I'd use one of the service providers other people
have been using already via mail, I think Dan has one in Texas that has all
the bugs worked out.
If you want Dans book you can order it direct from him (he's on this list
sometimes or I think it's danphoto@aol.com) or let me know and I'll dig up
the isbn for you. I recomend it.

Larry
