These were made at 3600 DPI on an Epson flatbed scanner

Thanks, Your results at 3600 dpi were not bad at all, so a high end scanner
should be able to do it at less than the cost of a reader/printer or

Probably 300 or 400 bucks would get you there, or you could get this
model used on eBay pretty cheaply. I like Epson's scanners and will buy
another some day.
