Everything I need

This is my third scanner. The first was a roll-through Microtek, the second was a UMax Astra 610P. I've seen some people complaining about difficulties with their scanners. The UMax is very inconsistant and not at all intuitive! The first thing...

Great for a beginner's digital darkroom.

Outperforms its class. Powerful software included. Works in many other image editing programs

Slow USB 1.1 interface. Tedious film scanning. Maximum image length is 12 inches.

Find Another

I bought this scanner about 2 months ago and have been very disappointed. The scanning speed at the higher resolutions is appallingly slow, minutes for a full page scan. The single button copy feature does not work on either one of my printers using...

Decent quality for the money

Software is Horrible, Very Slow

Epson Perfection 1260 PHOTO scanner

My first impression of the Epson Perfection 1260 Photo flatbed scanner out of the box were mixed. It came with all required cables, connectors, and accessories, but the unit's design is quite boring. I expected a sleeker peripheral - not a plain...

Affordable flatbed, good scan quality

Extremely slow/buggy software, shoddy advanced user features
