Scsi AND USB in one - the 2200SU
Review of UMAX Astra 2200 by nosferatu1001

Advantages: cheap, reliable, quick [scsi], incs transparency adaptor
Disadvantages: no scsi support [afaik] under win2k

Looking for a cheap scanner, I happened upon this beauty in jungle? why beauty? well it only cost me £60 INCLUDING the transparency adaptor. and it includes a scsi port [a DB25 type, ie looks like parallel] as well as the more conventional USB type. This is a brilliant idea, although they only provide the cheaper USB cable [and it's quite short at that] It is reasonably quick through USB, not stunning but then I wouldn't expect so for this price. ...
...I was mightily impressed. It has the usualscsi pass through, scsi id etc. The buttons [to-program, copy, user-defined] on the scanner are useful, and it isn't *too* tricky to change what program it uses in the TWAIN drivers - it defaults to the included page something or other - not the adobe one oc! - which is fine for beginners, a pain for anyone else. Speaking of the TWAIN drivers, they aren't too bad as it happens. the basic will get you up and ... Read review

Review of UMAX Astra 2200 by utero

Advantages: cheap, reliable
Disadvantages: not the best software

...The solution is this Umax scanner. I have to say Umax have improved quality wise no end over the last year or so and returns rates are incredibly minimal compared to their 610P model of a few years back. PLus you have the added bonus off an adaptor to scan thise slides. All this for around £150-£175 all in. The software isn't the best in the world but for the money you save you could get better software. A little known fact is that Umax make scanners ... Read review

Manufacturer's product description

The UMAX Astra 2200 is the smart, push button scanner for home and office. With a touch of a button you can scan, copy or send images and documents to popular applications such as e-mail, document management and image editing software. With the USB interface, setup is simple. Just plug in the scanner, install the software and you're up and running in minutes. And the 2200 also has a SCSI II interface, which means that more computer systems new and old will be able to easily connect to the scanner. With the included Universal Transparency Cover, you can easily scan slides, negatives and other transparent material. The Transparency Cover replaces the lid on your scanner and allows you to scan transparencies up to 4" x 5". While other scanners offer transparency solutions as options, the Astra 2200 comes equipped with the transparency cover right out of the box.
