Observer Comments
I can imagine this would work with OSX simply as a TWAIN device. But, the significant component is the software. Neatreceipts sells a scanner and their software that manages expenses and receipts. But, their software does NOT work on OSX. If someone were to use this Pentax scanner (or another travel scanner), what software could be used to provide some of the expense/receipt management capabilities of NeatReceipts? Any suggestions?
Look into ReceiptWallet software. It is MAC OS Universal software.
