If you wanna go for HP brand then go for model no. HP Scanjet 2400 digital flatbed scanner(Q3841A) with a price tag of Rs.3200+tax. If you wanna go for Epson then go for Epson Perfection 660 which has a price tag of Rs.4500+tax, but you might face some after sales problem with Epson products, go for Epson scanners only if get a trusted retailer. And as far as Canon goes you can go for CanoScan 3000ex which retails for Rs.4700+tax.

Regards,
Shovik.

Why don't u buy a psc by HP. All in one is good than scanner alone. I got HP 1315 for 3.9k 2 years ago. And it is really gud. Trying going for PSC rather than alone scanner.

I already have a HP deskjet 3920 and Xerox Phaser 3117 printers...I am more than happy with the performance of the Xerox laser printer.

What I want right now is just a scanner... Isnt there any scanner in the range of 3-3.5k for epson and canon brands? Though HP is good I though it would be the one having thighly priced.

Here HP Scanjet 2400 is priced at 3500/-
