Hi Martin,
That's true, but only if the artwork happens to fit on or in your
scanner. There are occasions where we can scan somewhat larger artwork
in two passes, moving it over to catch the other half, but its extremely
difficult keeping the artwork 100% perpendicular when its shifted over
so fitting the two halves together can be difficult and time consuming
if you want it perfect.
But its true, if you've ever scanned a piece of artwork at 3200 dpi or
6400 dpi, its like looking at it under a microscope. You can see every
paper fiber clearly!
I use Silverfast for my Epson V750 scanner, but I also use Vuescan,
which is less expensive, very capable, and is updated frequently. Might
want to give it a try for that older Epson scanner. It supports
virtually every scanner out there, its not expensive and I believe
there's a trial version available.

Anyway a scanner can still be handy for some tasks. There are models with 2
lamps on opposite sides of the optical path to reduce the texture effects.
Scanners aren’t just handy, they’re far superior to cameras for reproducing artwork at high resolution.
How odd to be in a situation where 20 year-old technology is superior to *anything* available today?
