I have bought this scanner to use in my office, and I wish I had not. It is slow and the colours it produces are useless.

I wanted it to scan and copy A3 colour maps that I had produced so I could print them out and send drafts to my clients, however this machine is now collecting dust as I have gone back to my Brother A4 scanner and have to fold the maps in half and stick together later.

Ordinary black pen comes out as purple, dark green pencil as light blue etc etc

But what do you expect for this price? In this case absolute rubbish! I am so very disappointed in it. Does anyone make an A3 colour scanner at a reasonable price???

The only things it has going for it is that it is compact and light weight and relatively easy to use.

Hi ~ More information about the scanner would be useful, in particular your reasons for choosing this model in preference to other apart from it's low cost.

Are you sure it's nothing to do with the software?
