4 out of 5 stars Works great and is versatile!   October 25, 2004

I have used mine not only for making copies of documents but also to scan coins (e.g.- for sale on eBay). It works great! The top cover can be easily raised an inch or so for larger objects. Speed and scan quality have been fine for my purposes.


4 out of 5 stars Good scanner.   July 10, 2004

Good scanner, decent software. pThe scanner itself is lightweight and somewhat small, though it is not intended for space-saving. It's not bulky like most Visioneer models, but it's not slim, either. The one problem I have with the scanner itself is that the top often slides off when I don't intend it to, and it's annoying to have to put the little hinges back into the scanner.pThe quality is okay; it's not something I'd use to scan pictures and expect them to be all perfect quality, but I scan art with this scanner, and for that purpose it is sufficient. It's not meant for something professional, and for the price it is well worth it.pAs far as the software goes... the people complaining that it makes their computers freeze probably have a technical problem with their computers, not the actual scanner or the scanner software. Problems such as this could easily be fixed if people had the incentive to actually learn a little something about computers, instead of expecting the entire digital world to work with the simplicity and user friendly ease of AOL or Windows XP. It'd be nice if all of the digital world did work like that, but the real world doesn't, either. Sometimes it's a simple problem such as a driver incorrectly installed or the wrong driver installed (which, in most cases, is the USER's fault) and people spend months struggling with their computers going haywire. Then they end up complaining that it's the company's fault, when a lot of times I'm just seeing it's the innate inability for some humans to interact with technology. I'm just a little tired of seeing good products get bad reviews and bad ratings because people don't know how to work with technology.pTangent aside, this is pretty much a good scanner with decent software (personally, I prefer importing the images through Adobe, but, whatever).
