Just Plug It In [Posted on 2008-01-13]
I am an illustrator with a moderate amount of computer skills. I would rather spend more time painting than worrying about every little tweaking detail offered by many of the higher end scanners.
It was simple to plug in, load the software and begin scanning in Photoshop. The first scan was an 11 X 17 black and white piece of inked comic art - handled readily by the GT5000. I was blown away by the speed and quality.
Very good value - excellent results.
FANTASTIC AND EASY [Posted on 2008-04-08]
Sent back a MicroTek scanner 9800 because it was crap and their tech support was worthless and bought this Epson. On the MicroTek my scans came out with blue backgrounds even after repeated calibrating. The Epson produces crisp, clear, perfect scans and no dreaded blue background to try to fix. It's a total gem! Easy set-up, no fuss, beautiful scans into jpg or pdf files. Love it and recommend it 100%.
WARNING when buying Epson products [Posted on 2008-04-18]
PURCHASE YOUR EPSON PRODUCT THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR FROM EPSON DIRECTLY.
This is not a review of this product, but rather a word to the wise... Two and half months after my purchase of an Epson 10000XL scanner through Amazon, it stopped working. Through the followup and tech support process I learned that, because I purchased through Amazon, the manufacturer nor the seller would honor the 1 year warranty. Epson's position is that Amazon is not an authorized seller and that they merely act as broker for what can often be re-furbished or second hand merchandise.
So, should your purchase break or malfunction, as mine did, you are out of luck with regard to warranty.
This lesson cost me $2400.00
Best 11x17 scanner for small office [Posted on 2008-04-29]
I bought this item for our small architectural office to do 11x17 scans. This is a great large format scanner. It comes with a watered down version of Adobe photoshop that is easy to learn and use. It also comes with Abbey Finereader which is also a plus. Several scans can be automatically converted to one pdf file. The scan options are also user friendly with default templates and custom options. I searched several sites and found Amazon to carry the best price for a trusted site.
All business [Posted on 2008-04-29]
I travel a lot and have the scanner shipped to various cities. The scanner has never failed regardless of the high usage or impacts from the abuse of shipping. Very fast, east to use and clean optics makes this scanner a great purchase. We like it so much the company is purchasing another one. Props to Epson for making a quality product!!
