Hi all.
My scanner is working very nicely. However, I have discovered that for some reason my usb hub and my scanner do not want to work together. When I plugged the scanner into the hub I got no errors but nothing happened. As soon as I plugged it back into a usb port on the mac mini, the scanner came to life. It's kind of a pain as my usbserial cable also prefers a direct connection; since I only have two usb ports on the mini, that means I can't plug anything else in as long as I am using those two. I'll be able to unplug the scanner sometimes but I need the usbserial converter plugged in all the time for my braillelite. But at least it does work.

Now that I have a scanner that is connected to a computer I plan to do more scanning and would really apprecite some tips. I know this is kind of OT so people can email me directly if they want to do so. I would like to know how you can position a book so you don't get a bunch of garbage from the edge of the adjacent page; there must be techniqeus for doing this. Of course the simple solution would be to take apart all the books and place them on the scanner a page at a time but that's not really practical most of the time.

Thanks for any tips.
