It works by plugging it into a computer (USB port). There is a program you install for free from scanmarker. You then simply highlight the section in your books or paper that you want to read aloud, copy or translate and it does so by either the actual program or by putting it into a word/pages doc. I use it for my dyslexia and it has been very helpful.

Will this scan hand written text?

Hi, Sorry for the delay - The OCR function wouldn't recognize handwritten text. You would be able to scan line by line using the image feature though the text won't be editable afterwards. Let us know if you have any other questions! - Scanmarker

Does the scanmarker recognize micr e-13b font ? i know that it works with cmc-7 font, but it works also with micr e-13b font ? thanks

Hello, thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately MICR E-13B font isn't currently supported. Let us know if we can assist you any further! - Scanmarker

Décupler vos encodages 👍

Produit nickel mais vous aurez besoin d'un peu d'entraînement. Une fois maitrisé, c'est carrément top. Des limites toutefois à ne pas dépasser. Documents abîmés ou mal imprimés. Très efficace pour une utilisation standard.

Without USB cable

The product is very good, very useful to me. I recommend it to all those persons who have to type a lot per day. Now coming do to its Customer service part. International Customer sevice very very good. They respond back to your email and give resolution too. But out here in India first of all the seller don't share any ph no or email through which you can communicate if you have an issue. Amazon customer service is horrible, they don't know what should be a logical solution in a given stitutaion. My product came without the USB code, nobody in India was able to help me, the help come from the Original manufacturer. Regards Pranab

Perfect printed text scanner

Perfect scanner to digitalize printed text. Works fast and is very accurate, almost never misses a word. It saved my daughter a lot of time on school summaries and transcriptions. Easy to download and install the manufacturer software.
