Scanner Hardware & Software for Scanning Trading Cards

Описание: Learn how to scan trading cards efficiently—phone, Ricoh FI-8170, or Epson V600—and prep images for CardDealer Pro. Copy/paste-friendly bullets below:

• Pre-sort cards (set, parallel, condition, price) to speed bulk edits
• Hardware: phone, Ricoh FI-8170 (ADF), Epson V600 (flatbed)
• Software (Windows): install Ricoh drivers + PaperStream Capture
• Software (Mac/Windows): use the free Trading Card Scanner app
• Create a batch folder before you scan; name it clearly
• Ensure scanner is powered/connected; avoid running multiple scan apps
• Add/select your scanner in the app; reboot hardware if not detected
• Ricoh ADF loading: place cards upside down and backwards (scanner images top-down)
• Always scan front then back for each card
• Set image borders to capture corners and edges cleanly
• Use color profiles to improve chrome/foil cards
• For sleeved/toploader cards, consider sideways feeding; check roller clearance tips
• Output is a folder of sequentially numbered images (front/back pairs)
• Import that folder directly into CardDealer Pro for fast listing
• Best practice: scan both sides—front-only is not recommended for online listings
