We have had ScanPro for several years now and our Gov Docs section bought one too. It was difficult to learn how to use. We gave tutorials to all the librarians. It's main advantage is it is the only scanner that scans opaque microcards. It doesn't print but you can send the image to email or a scanner. And we have a large collection if microcards. It's possible we just decided not to hook it to a network printer.
