What can I scan with the Scanmarker Digital Highlighter?

You can scan any printed text with this highlighter pen.

Yes, it is a super-fast OCR text scanner.

Can I use Scanmarker Digital Highlighter with my Windows computer?

Yes, it works with both Mac and Windows computers.

Is it any good for reading a book?

Yes, as it reads the words back to you! Maybe a long way of doing it.. maybe audio books would be better.

Can it be used to capture text from a laptop screen?

Had little success with it... the C-pen from yesteryear was 100 times better. Try a c-pen.

It can scan one line images but to me the results were unsatisfactory.

Yes, the scanner works great with Windows 10.

Does it require a software download or is it plug and play?

Scanmaker does require software download from scanmaker.com/software-download, and activation via the internet after 30 days. The box stated that a CD ROM was included with software but it was missing. I am not sure what this software was but the instruction booklet does require you to download from the internet. You might wish to visit scanmaker.com for more information. This may not be of any interest to you but I found the image scanning unsatisfactory. I scan mathematical texts and of course math symbols have to be image scanned, they will not translate into word text. The images were crude and quite unusable, so I find the product useless for my purposes. Others may have had a better experience with it.

Can this be plugged into and used on a Samsung tablet?

This item is a complete waste of someone's money, especially if purchasing it for quick text scanning. It incorrectly copies texts and takes time to complete scanning. The amount of time spent on editing and proofreading adds to your workload. It doesn't work at all on Android devices, as I have tried it on my Samsung tablet. What is more frustrating is that the latency time from scan to text is awful. For those who are able to type, this product does not enhance your performance.
