Questions & Answers

Glenn K : Does anyone use this scanner with SilverStream 8.8 software on a mac with macos 10.13 or 10.14?  Any issues?
Glenn K : I have a few questions while considering this flatbed scanner.   (1) Has any MacOS owner had any issues with the scanner / application software? (2) Exactly what software application(s) come with the scanner? (3) The product photo shows a book being scanned.  Does the included software take care of de-skewing scanned text at the center of the book binding? (4) Does the software include the ability to repair photos such as blemishes or scratches on old photos? (5) is my assumption correct that this scanner is unable to be used for scanning slides and/or negatives?

Good Machine

I have scanned in my first 12" x 12" scrapbook with great results. I used the 600dpi setting and it was a slow process but compared to the cost of having it done for me at the local shop it is well worth the time. I do have to go and "trim" the scans as I want them perfect but it isn't really necessary if you aren't overly picky.

Best scanner there is!

A very good scanner especially for scanning my original pencilled comic book page sequentials. The details are scanned exactly in color and in and grey scale. The scanner works fast with very little noise. A great piece of equipment it is all hands down.

What's not to like?

I purchased this scanner to digitize my archive of documents and have been very pleased so far. What's really good about this scanner aside from the good quality scans is the very open software. Virtually everything is configurable and works great and, importantly, the "smart" features that many products have can be disabled where they exist. Hence so far I have been able to get pretty much exactly what I want. Being able to scan using the customizable buttons, storing PDF's directly to my server without having to touch the attached computer is great. As for the physical design, unlike most scanners the top surface is virtually flat, including the glass. That allows for easy scanning of large documents: no pushing the documents down into a scan well. Only had it a few weeks as of this writing but so far it is behaving extremely well.

Excelent Scanner for Artwork

Purchased scanner for scanning realistic graphite pencil drawings. The scanner does a great job and the software is great for managing contrast, resolution, light, etc. Artwork scans can be seen on FineArtAmerica website (drawings by James Schultz) for Ocean Dip, India Princess, and India Moonlight Swim Drawings using this scanner. The price of the scanner was reasonable for a CCD technology scanner which is required for scanning artwork. I hope the scanner is reliable and lasts a long time.
