4 out of 5 stars Good all-around scanner   February 23, 2003
Patrick Madigan (Mesa, AZ USA)

I was lucky enough to receive this scanner for Christmas, and have been very pleased with it. It's probably better than what I would have purchased myself, as I don't do that much scanning, just a few photos now and then. But I was amazed by the superb quality of scans, and the ease of use of the scanner. The software wasn't that hard to use. Basically, scan everything at 50%, leave all of the other settings alone, and you should be good to go (100% images are HUGE).pThe only negative about this scanner is that sometimes the scan light (the one inside the scanner, not the LED on the front)stays on, indefinitely. To get around this I pull out the power cord if I don't plan to use it for a while... no power switch... because I don't want the light to burn out. Other than that, it's a great scanner. Combined with my HP-5550 printer, I can make perfect copies of anything, including photos.
