Two and half months after my purchase of an Epson 10000XL scanner through Amazon, it stopped working. Through the followup and tech support process I learned that, because I purchased through...
Expression 10000XL In a shrinking market, this is an A3 scanner for the discerning pro The 10000XL is the flagship of Epson?s A3 scanner line. The company compares it against its own 1640XL,...
"Fast & easy to install but running software can slow it"
Program installed with no problem using Vista. USB cord could be longer. For multiple scans it would be better if the program returned you to where you last made a save so you don't have to search...
I bought this scanner at Amazon.com because of the many good reviews I read. Big mistake. It is a very flimsy piece of 'equipment'. As I opened the box I heard something in the box that...
Canon's Canoscan 8800F is a traditional flatbed scanner, as opposed to the combined printer-scanners that are more popular nowadays. The reason you might want to go for a separate unit rather than...
This is a awesome scanner. We are using it in our photo lab as a replacement to an old agfa duoscan. WOW...I love that several photos can be placed on the bed and scanned in two clicks!! Great...
If your looking for a scanner to scan your old family pictures no matter what format, this scanner is a must.I read the reviews here and other sites that give it a bad review because the...
Complicated software- support has not responded yet.
Epson Perfection V700 scanner seems to make a very good scan. We purchased it to scan x-rays. Software is very complicated and have not gotten our response back from support yet.
The scanner seems like a very well-constructed, quality piece of equipment. I haven't had much experience yet but had it up and running quickly and am impressed with the scanning of slides using...
I have had a V700 for about two months and love it. I have scanned numerous photos, as well as artwork, slides and transparencies. All have scanned beautifully. The quality is superb. My scanned...
Based upon my support experience I could not recommend this scanner to anyone regardless of how well it is claimed to function. Four phone calls later the scanner still doesn't work. I was told...
Unlike most modern desktop scanners, which tend to be small and sleek, the Scanjet N8460 is a huge and far from elegant device. But then it's made that way for a reason. The reason being that it's...
All-in-one multifunction devices are so popular youād be forgiven for thinking the humble standalone scanner has had its day, but thatās far from the truth. Many busy offices need dedicated...
Very good scanner at this price. I am getting great results with slides as well as photos and other items. I could wish for a better interface. It does not allow enough control. But with the good...
Very good scanner, with one pretty big flaw, and a few minor ones. Pretty fast at lower resolutions, very nice images, nice batch handling of images; i.e. put in 5 photos, the scanner will...
The biggest is that it doesn't scan the outside 3/8ths of an inch... so if you want to scan to the edge of say a photo... you have to move it exactly 3/8ths of an inch from the sides. You'll go...
All-in-One printer/scanner/copier machines are all the rage at present, especially if you're trying to run a home office or small business on a fairly limited budget. However, the frustration for...
"Highly functional though fiddly to get to grips with"
On the whole I've been very pleased with this scanner, if you are willing to invest a bit of time initially then you'll be rewarded with a scanner that does the job with a minimum of fuss.
Its only saving grace has been that once it started working during a scanning session, it continued fine until the next time I booted it up. I have scanned the pages from about nine 3-inch...
Pros: Works Great! Cons: Had to play with settings With the auto feed, this scanner will do "legal" size paper. I scanned the Listing Agreement for my house and sent it off in an email in the...
5 stars for the scanner, 3 stars for the software, not easy to use
I am impressed by the quality of scans the machine is capable of. If it gets fed the right information it performs very nicely, but rather slowly. If you are using it in conjunction with an old...
If you plan on scanning transparencies, beware of a problem that afflicts the similar Epson V700 and V750 pro scanners - depending on where you place your negative in the film holder, and depending...
I am a big fan of Epson's printers. But this scanner has been a nightmare. I bought it in June of 2008, and started scanning my vast archive of negatives. I soon noticed that there were color...
I have tons of antique photos and the tintypes are so small but when enlarged they turn out so very crisp. I think the best part of this scanner is the ability to do wet scans with negatives and...
Pros: Great workhorse Cons: ADF misfeeds I am an office manager and use my 5590 daily. It is currently 3 years old and is still going strong. It helps me be more efficient and cuts down on making...
This scanner worked perfectly for the first 5 months. I probably scanned 3000 pages of stuff. Then all of a sudden I could not "initialize scanner". I use it with my MacBook Pro. The scanner...
It's unbelievable how loud this scanner is. I have had it jam up on duplexes with documents more than 20 pages, so I don't risk it and only scan 15 at a time. I do like the automatic feed and use...

I needed to purchase a new scanner as my old one was so old there were no driver downloads for it for my newer computer. I purchased this scanner because I saw it did slides and 35MM negatives. I...
The 4490 offers much of the appeal of the 4990 Photo but at a far lower price. It boasts the same 4800x9600dpi resolution for a start, though the stratospheric resolution figures being bandied...
Pros: None Cons: Doesn't work I have had nothing but problems with this machine. We bought two of them. The Transparency Adapter was broken on both and had to be replaced (after running a 4 hour...
Good software, easy setup and operation. The results obtained with this machine are really very good and consistent. I have owned a number of scanners and this is the best by far.

"Let's get real - this is a general purpose scanner."
Best scanner I've ever owned. For $160 who can complain? If you want dedicated high volume hardware - just a negative scanner will cost you many times this. As for print scanners - this is the...
It's becoming rarer for home users to want separate printers and scanners, primarily because of the space each one uses, which is why multi-function devices are popular. Separate scanners still...
Unfortunately I carry work home. As a business owner with a steady influx of information, I have tried to stay as electronic as possible with the storage of this information. I have two document...

The Epson WorkForce GT-1500 ($349.99 direct) represents a new direction for Epson. As the name implies, this scanner is office-centric rather than photocentric, and it's aimed at small offices...
Go with the Canon DR-2080. This is one of those scanners, although attractively priced on Amazon.com, is still TOO [spendy] for its size (HUGE footprint).
Received it in three days after the order, that in itself is amazing. Went right to work, scanning 20 years of photos. The only ''down'' is that I was led to believe that I could also interface...
This is the slowest, clumsiest peace of junk I have ever bought. Beware of all the so-called ease of use claims. I expected much more for the money. How do I get my money back on this thing?
Project - convert 800+ family slides into digital. After giving 100 to a photo lab ($70!!-ouch!), I accidentally discovered today's flatbed scanner 35mm slide features (and film strips) and gave it...

The fi-6230 from Fujitsu differs from most other document scanners in that it's really two scanners in one. There's a sheet-fed scanner at the back to handle unbound documents, with a flatbed in...
It took me five minutes to set up and start using this scanner and I haven't stopped since. Cookie Monster is the star of Sesame Street, but this Paper Monster is the star of my desk. I've scanned...
Stepping away from the flatbed theme slightly we have the ScanSnap scanner from Fujitsu. It looks a bit like a mini bubble jet printer but is in actual fact a hand fed scanner aimed at the business...
Exceeded my expectations. I operate a rather complex home office environment with both Vista and XP computers, wired and wireless. The scanner integrated in fairly smoothly and works accross this...

"What a "Hunk"! Great Design, Performance and Price."
I had given up on dedicated scanners and was making do with an HP All-In-One. The time came to get serious about preserving thousands of photos and slides from my lifelong hobby. I was very close...
