First of all, be sure this model of scanner will be compatible with your computer. I use a Windows 7 laptop, love it -- I don't like change. I am the person that wants archival scans, as close as to the original photo as possible! This scanner has not disappointed! Tips to get the archive scans (for photos)... When you launch the program, make sure it's selected to photo, for the document type. Next, make sure you've selected "color" for the image type, not black and white, or gray-scale, even if the photo is black and white, you will always want to scan it in color, not doing so is going to loose detail and fine precision from your original. Then, go to your configuration button, select the middle box that says color -- don't mess with anything except go down and select "no color correction", then hit ok. Finally, go into your "file save settings" -- located next to the scan button. I scan in BMP, it makes a large file, but they're best to conserve my images. If you want to do Jpeg, click on the "options" button and drag your quality setting to the highest one and click ok. On your resolution selections, never scan anything below 600dpi, just don't, it's not preserving your memories if you scan lower than 600dpi. I scan 4x6's, 5x7's and 8x10's at 600dpi, unless it's a treasured one and then I do 1200dpi, for small photos, very old and really needing the details salvaged, always do 1200dpi, I have done up to 1600dpi, for really important photos that if lost I need the quality! These options are for the archival scan purposes! Using any of the auto settings, or color correction, dust removal, is never recommended. I often have my old photos restored and colorized and you want to get your quality right, use auto settings is not going to properly save your image for the future. This scanner is also very lightweight -- I kept the box and without the packing materials inside, I can easily slip both the scanner and my laptop in the box together when I visit relatives to scan photos. We all have relative that don't like their pictures to leave their house, take this with you and have success with saving your family history!
I just bought this and have not used it, but it looks really cool. It is all black, it says Epson on it. it came with a cord, with the old samsung looking charger end and the other end with a USB on it. I now own a new black Baggie tie from the cord and the awesome clear bag about 1.5"X3" and I blew it up and popped it scaring the holy crud out of my cat which turned around and clawed me. I deserved it my wife said. I am sure this is going to be fine for putting in pictures and receipts or else I would not have bought it.
I used to have a HP scanner-printer which was bulky. It was for personal use at home. The ink dried up quickly. I ended up just using the scanner portion of it. Eventually it died up on me. I am glad I discovered this EpsonV39 scanner. It works so well, light and portable, and produces good scans of photos and documents. It is also fast. I love it!
I bought this scanner to scan old photos of my parents and grandparents. Some are from as early as 1901!! The quality of the scan is amazing. Some pictures I can see features and people I could not see in the faded originals. The editing program clarifies even more. I always refer to myself as tech challenged but this scanner is so easy to set up and use. I have already recommended it to multiple friends.
Great scanner for the price. Easy to set up, light weight and fits in a drawer when not in use. Excellent resolution. No automatic feeder means no paper jams! Love it!
I bought this scanner to start the process of digitizing all of my old family photos. The software and scanner are both easy to use and produce great results. My only issue has been an error message that pops up every now and then about a communication error, but unplugging the device and plugging it back in helps solve this. Considering the many hours straight I have used this, it's a great buy for the price!
I had no trouble installing the software included with the Scanner on a new Mac Pro computer. In my case I had to purchase an adapter cable to provide power to the scanner USB port because Apple's newer computers no longer have USB connections. The scanner worked as advertised. The scanner is easily portable and requires no power except that provided by the attached computer. It is an excellent choice for scanning information into a laptop computer.
I was disappointed in the packing and the opened box that was sent. The bottom of the box was torn open in two places, probably to view the scanner. The top of the box still had the sealed tape on it. I checked the contents and all seemed to be there and the scanner works fine. However upon writing this review a couple weeks after purchasing and checking out the scanner I see that it has been reduced again from the $84 I paid for it to $69.99. In the back of my mind I wonder if this was a returned item and used before. I don't know if I will purchase electronics from Walmart again.
All I needed was a scanner, and I thought this one would be perfect. ($30 more than a scanner and printer combined, which is funny.) But it kept hanging up on installation, would never let me get past that and never gave me an error message. Very frustrating.
It's somehow super simple and yet super frustrating. First off, there are barely any manual settings. It does what it wants. The few there are don't work. Dust removal? Nothing. It also crops your photos, which sometimes is nice -and sometimes it cuts off things. Also, it closes out of itself every single time. So every single photo you have to reopen it. Second issue: it only does well with newer photos or glossy prints. Anything on textured paper, it zooms in on the texture as shown. Third, it quit working on day 2. I can't seem to fix it at all. Freezing, disconnecting. I tried updating it from the Epson support page, but it's so outdated, that didn't help. Thank goodness WM lets you return.
