Thanks to Plustek's patent pending SEE Technology, any book can lie completely flat on the scanning glass. The result is a perfectly scanned image with no annoying book spine shadow and no distorted lines of text. Whereas professional book scanners are targeted mainly for large libraries, archive museums, and corporations with big budgets, OpticBook 3600 is an affordable solution for all libraries, copy rooms, students, teachers, universities, SOHO, law offices, publicists, and work groups.
...I bought the PlustekOptic Pro P12 for one reason - it was very cheap - only £45 from Comet. Although when I got it home and started to use it I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the output.
It scans reasonably fast and is pretty good at OCR and images alike, the instructions are easy to use and so is the scanning software - although the software is pretty basic, enough for most users with a decent graphics application. The only bad point I can think of is the noise it makes - when scanning at a high resolution it makes a pretty loud vibrating noise.
Overall I would recommend the P12 to anyone for it's price there can't be much better....

Advantages: Reliable, accurate, small, dedicated to its specific task. Disadvantages: It's a dedicated film scanner, so not very versatile.

Setting up is quite simple, although there will be problems if you have another scanner connected to your computer. In this case the Plustek scanner will not be detected by its software, and will be totally unavailable. This applies if you have a multi-function printer with a scanner. It also applies if you have a network scanner or multifunction device not connected to your computer. Having the availability of another scanner is enough to upset the Plustek. I got around this by declaring the network MFP scanner unavailable in "my computer" "hardware". Both scanners are now usable.
The slides or negatives are placed in the carriers with the emulsion side downwards, and the carriers are fed into the scanner. They slide in smoothly, and are positively located by notches in the side rails.
Slides are scanned as they are, and negatives are colour...
