The Epson scanner software can be used as a standalone application.
I've found it to be quite good. However, an image editor would be a
very big plus in terms of optimizing your scans. PS Elements is
probably your best bet in bargain software.

But is the scanning software a plugin and as such need a program like
photoshop to operate? Or will it scan and save to a file on its own?

I don't know what software Epson supplies with the V300. I've never

of the Epson software for either of the V700 or 2450 scanners.
However, I strongly recommend VueScan for driving the scanner. It's
got
amongst the best scanning algorithms I've seen with any software
and is
updated regularly. The V300 is on the supported scanner list.
Image editing is separate from scanning. Use what you like there.
While you
can do a lot of the basic capture needs in the scanning software,
scanning
software should be used to capture the data as best possible, not
edit or
finish render it.

I'm still looking at scanners. I think I'm going to go with the
Epson
V300. It's gotten good reviews from just about everywhere that I've
looked and it appears to be just what I'm looking for. And the price
is right.
But I noticed that the Epson package no longer includes Photoshop
Elements, so I'm wondering does the Epson software work as a
standalone program? Or will I need a separate image editor to access
the scanner software?
