Easier than separate devices? Not here it doesn't. My stand-alone
scanner has a "copy" button, or I can use the scanner software, which
has a "copy" choice.


That button must be communicating with some software in your computer,
which must be set up and working properly.



Yes.


A more comp]lex (and so
vulnerable) setup than something that happens entirely within that device.



Complex? Not at all; I don't remember any details, but I remember that
setting up the scanner was very easy. Vulnerable? Vulnerable to what?
I've never had a problem with it, running under XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1,
and now 10.

But if you prefer all-in-one units, that's fine with me. I don't, for
the reason I explained, but I won't try to convert you to my way of
thinking.
