As a graphic design professional, I depend on my scanner to give me outstanding resolution, dependable performance and speed. This scanner does it all at an incredible price. Both the scanner and the software was incredibly easy to use right out of the box.
I did my research on professional photography, design & PC sites and this was one of the top three -- and the least expensive (by far) of the bunch. The reviews were right on (accuracy, speed, easy to use & dependable).
The quick-button panel on the front means I can scan on the fly and keep my work flow going smoothly. The accompanying software allows me to make scanning color/resolution adjustments on the fly and import a perfectly scanned document into Photoshop.
I've recommended this scanner to many others and they are all very happy with it.
