Re: B&W Scanning forum...

2003-06-04 by jsinger986

I do understand your concern with time, but for me that is precisely why I wanted a 
group like the B&W scan group.  While I check email in this group occasionally, there 
is too much traffic here that is non scanning related for me to sift through to find the 
scanning related questions.

I have an interest in some of the topics in this forum, but I use ImagePrint and I focus 
more on the IP forum.  So, for me, it will save time to have a B&W scanning group that 
deals with scanning and not printing.

Thanks,
Jeff
