Can anyone recommend a large-format scanner to me? I can't find any commerically-available ones that exceed 8.5" wide, and I need at least 9" wide (and preferably more, in case I start working at 11x14). While I can try to scan things in pieces, I really consider it a suboptimal solution. I've found some in a price range of $2-3K, but I think that's a little much considering I can get an 8.5x11 scanner for under $100.

I know a lot of cartoonists work in a wider format. I can't be the only person who's had to deal with this. Or does everyone else just scan in pieces?
