The flat bed type is the best kind for home use. You can buy one for home use that is also a printer, copier and a fax machine all in one. These types of scanners have gotten smaller and smaller now and will take up very little room in the home office. The sheet fed type is also convenient to use in the home as well.
People who need to do a lot of black and white scanning, such as for text documents, will not need one that can be used to scan photos. The best kind to get in the case of text document scanning is the type that has optical character recognition technology. These types are best for buinesses that need to edit scanned documents. The ones for home use can be very affordable these days. If you run a small business from home you may want to look at the kind of scanners available with the automatic document feeder feature if you need to scan more than one document at a time. If you only need to scan one document at a time you will not need this feature though.
The higher the resoulution capabilities the better results you will get in regards to the quality of your document. Be sure you get the kind with the best resoulution for your needs. A moderate resolution is adequate for the home scanner user if you want to scan a few documents now and then though. If you do a lot of graphics scanning you need a one with the higher end resouluton for the best scanning results.
