Summary: Frustrating waste of time and money
Review: I have nothing good to say about this scanner. The image quality is very poor, it is slow, the bundled software is awful, and there is a bug in their driver. I have used it with two computers, and AMD-K6 200mHz running Win98 and a Pentium 3 933mHz running WinXP, and with both computers it did the same thing: It worked fine for a while, and then it would just stop working and I would get an error message telling me that there is a problem with the SCSI host adapter. I don't even have one! My scanner is connected to the Parallel port. Argh. It was so frustrating; I would not recommend this scanner to anyone. Go buy a cheap Canon.
