We've had good luck with the Epson Expression 836 which comes with a fair
amount of calibration software.  The machine is quiet and fast.  I think the
current model number is 1680.  Our E-reserves people swear by their Fujitzu
but then they're scanning in 1-bit color all the time so what would you
expect.  We also have an HP6350 which is noisy and slow and seldom used and
which I'd love to chuck out of the nearest window.  Perhaps for this reason,
all the windows around here have been locked shut.
