Scanning software
I am using an Epson CX4600 scanner to do some work.
The only other scanner I've used was an HP, and the house software was a bit rough around the edges. So I found Vuescan, a third party scanning utility, and went about it. It is spartan in design. Bullshit free and powerful. It allows scanning with multiple passes to normalize output, bit-per-pixel settings and auto rotation/mirroring.
I did end up trying the factory Epson scanning software, though, which actually turns out to be a very thoughtful implementation in its "Professional Mode". With that said, however, I must recommend Vuescan if you are deciding to do some serious fucking scanning.
