WOW

I've been scanning for 15 years or so, and always used another brand of scanner. I always liked that brand, but they've grown very lax in providing drivers for new Macintosh operation system versions. So... it was time for a change.
My photographer friends have always raved about Epson everything - scanners, printers, everything, so I thought I should look for an Epson scanner. I liked the very high resolution available on this one, and some of the other features.
WOW - the scans blow me away. So clear, just beautiful - the scans make me sorry I stuck with the other brand for so long.
The only reason this doesn't get 5 stars is that it's not legal-size. I have to stitch two-scan legal size docs together in Photoshop; even that's not too big a deal. This is an amazing scanner.
I would recommend this to a friend!

good but not great

An updated version of a familiar EPSON design but still suffering from all the old design ills. To begin, item was received damaged ... specifically the feeder plastic sheeting that sits on top of the glass was wrinkled and punctured. The feeder does not work well, often gets stuck even with very few pages. There is also a distinct artifact streaking (green) when scanning any photos already in a printed page. Generally slow, slow slow interface no matter what "dpi" setting or upgraded software you use. Overall a 1 star rating for the money - this may very well be the very last Epson made device I will ever purchase after many years.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Since the day I wore the head out on my RX 500 I have looked for a replacement. At last I have found it. It took an Artisan 1430 and Epson Perfection V500 Office to do it better. I expect more than most, and now I get it. I have 500 sheets of photo paper a day to prove it. When friends ask how I do it. I never tell them. I show them.

great scanner

I have had this scanner for almost two years now. I have scanned a few thousand photos. I have used it to scan very old family photos, many that are black and white to copy to dvd and share with family members. The scans of both black and white and color photos look as good as the original photos and really look good when viewed on tv. I have also scanned 35 negatives and the scans are as good as the prints. I highly recommend this scanner.

Wow !

Just used it last night, made test runs scanning paper, 35mm negs. and some slides. WOW ! I must admit that when I placed the order I didn't know what I would get. I got plenty ! I only used it on auto mode but looked at the advanced settings and it looks promising. Easy set up, and a no brainer to operate. Scans are fast and quiet. It just chirps softly. Uploading fast to my PC on Windows 7. The quality is perfect. I tried a few 50yearsold family pic. slides from 1988/89 and negs, from the mid 90's. Very impressive results. It surpassed my expectations. Just be gentle with the negs. and slides holder, that would be the only weak point if you were too rough.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Product Review

Just a short review - everything was in box but with very minimal packing. It was more what I would expect from on in store pickup not the type of packing I expected from fedex on my doorstep in the rainy state of Oregon. Second point the "Free Photo Shop Elements" is about 3 versions behind. They sent version 9 when the present version I think is up to version 12 !
Not a major point but not what most of us would expect when opening the box. LOL
