hi Ed, I just had a look at OmniPage pro and was surprised to find in the operating manual :

"Before you can select a scanner in OmniPage Pro X, its driver must already be installed on your system. It should also be tested, to be sure it is working properly with the scanning software supplied by its manufacturer. Consult the documentation supplied with your scanner."

Under such circumstances I don't think I can have much use for it at the present time for the simple reason that I have a HP ScanJet 6300 C for which no driver has been as yet developed for OS X. HP promised that drivers will be it available for this type of scanner model during spring this year; until then I have to wait with any purchase of OmniPage pro.
