The buttons are also customizable to fit your needs. This scanner captures high-resolution 2400 dpi images in a single scanning pass to ensure accurate color registration. The true 42-bit Input and Output color information captures trillions of colors for the most accurate highlights and shadows, delivering the subtle differences in color that 36-bit scanners can't see. Connecting it to your system is quick and easy with the included USB connection. Set up is a snap whether you are using an iMac, Apple G3/G4 or a Windows 98 equipped PC. The ScanMaker 4700 is equipped with high-quality CCD sensors to ensure superior images. This scanner can capture 720, 000 pixels per square inch in a single pass. With this technology, you will be able to enlarge your photos to 8x10 size while maintaining the original image quality!
Advantages: Affordable, solid, good quality and you can rest cups of tea on top! Disadvantages: Sometimes slow to scan and other scanners do have better quality
...We have had out Microtek Scanmaker 3600 for well over 5 years now and it is still going strong and doing the job for our entire family. I'm not sure how much we paid for it, but it was not a lot because we just wanted a basic scanner that could scan in documents. It is very reliable, easy to use, with a suitable range of features but has the tendency to be a bit slow occasionally.
1. Looks, Design and Size
The scanner is fairly good looking, quite elegant and fairly compact. It measures approximately 17" long, 10" across and 4" high so can fit into most desktop areas. It has a solid build to it and rather funky curve on the lid that gives it some added style. Furthermore, the main surface is flat and you can easily rest your cup of tea, lunch or bits of paper on top! The white colour is easy on the eye and fits in to most rooms...

Advantages: Ease of use, speed, low price Disadvantages: None
...I bought the Microtek Scanmaker X6, aftter being a previous owner of a Mlcrotek scanner. I have an iMac with USB ports, this added to the ease of set-up of the scanner; a simple case of plugging it in and running the installer CD that it came with. It comes bundled with an excellent software package, including Adobe Photo Deluxe and the wonderful Coloult - one of my favourite budget graphic programmes. Scanning is simple and quick for the price, whilst also being quieter than rival models. Photo and colour reproduction is ver,v good. An all round excellent buy....

Advantages: Good picture Disadvantages: overheat some times
...We got this scanner about five months ago. When we got it, it was used and we didn’t have the drivers for it. Luckily it was easy to get them all I did was went on line to the microtek site and searched for scanmaker 6 and they had the drivers right there on the site.
I like this scanner it has good picture. It is also a very quite scanner. There is one problem I have found with it and that is that it can over heat. To make it over heat you have leave it on for three or four hours. When it is over heated it won’t work but all you have to do is turn it off and then on. I would suggest this scanner to anybody that want a good scanner....

I bought my first PDA a few years ago, and was quite impressed. As things moved on though, I wanted more and more from it, GPS navigation being the main thing.
As I added more and more bits onto the old system, like a bluetooth jacket, and more... more
Introduction
My office is using this printer for about 3 years. The first impression to me is the height of the printer. It's standing on the table and almost double the height of the other printers. As it is installed by the office IT personnel, so more
