Summary: a decent scanner!
Review: I've purchaced this scanner a year ago, and i enjoy it very much. It's true- it's not the world's faster scanner, and sometimes it makes some noises, but if you are a regular common home- user like me - you will be more than pleased with the visual results.

Review: Scanner works well with Windows 98. However, is now obsolete with Win-XP unless I purchase an updated driver from UMAX. I am not happy with this hidden cost.

Summary: Great Images, although slow and buggy
Review: When I owned this scanner I thought the image quality was top noch. Colors were acurate. Details and sharpness were good.I was using on a Win98 machine. However, it was very slow and I kept having to reinstall the twain drivers because they would get corrupt causing green or black scans. It was much worse when I switched to WinME. Then when I upgraded to WinXP I just got rid of it. I have not been to happy with what I replaced it with, the Epson perfection 1660, so I'm currently looking for another scanner.
