Hi, I was going to buy Fine Reader but I too have -a very old - epson scanner. Does this mean it won't work? -before I buy it. Also, if I am thinking of replacing my scanner-because of its age-and want to get a new one, does anyone know of one which definitely works, so I don't waste money? Thanks. Kirsten.
