The older Epson 1640 series is the workhorse of the archive and documentations industry. Probably the only older scanner that's refurbished. After consulting with Kodak's professional color management division, the company I work for bought many Epson photo 4990 scanners. The V5000 is nearly the same scanner in a different looking case. Very rugged and built for volume use

I have a HP colour scanner on the HP1522 laser multifunction printer I brought to replace an ageing non networkable Brother all in one, I wish I hadn't bothered. The Brother scanned very good images allbeit in B&W only.
The HP has been nothing but trouble and although it is supposedly a colour scanner if I try to scan in colour it creates a rainbow with the image in the background. I have tried everything to get HP to deal with it but they have not resolved the issue despite them having the thing back on two occasions and numerous hours on the telephone with dozens of e-mails. They point blank refused to replace it or refund my money as did Mac Warehouse (Part of Dixons Currys group). Personally I wouldn't give HP another penny of my money or rely on them to resolve any issues you have with anything they manufacture. Good job my Xerox 2400 does a superb job, despite being 6 years old. Last edited by Gryffon; April 23rd, 2009 at 07:18 PM.. Reason: spelling error |

Whip out the HP software - if you're on XP, windows should be capable of doing a basic scantest. At least you'll get a better idea of whether the fault's in the device itself. You could also try a demo of Vuescan. Less bloat. But costs maybe $30 or so.
(P.S. My HP scanjet 4850 has been brilliant.) |

I am using an A3 printer/scanner, BROTHER MFC-J5910DW. I really only wanted an A3 scanner, but none of my local shops had one, and the on-line ones had often bad reviews.
It's a bit over-engineered for what I'm using it for, but I am quite happy with the thing - as you can see from my increased posting rate in the last few months. Cost me £250 when I bought it; since then this has become more widely available, and prices have gone down to £200. |
