Shoddy hardware/software integration [Posted on 2006-03-09]
We purchased this product with the expectation of using the automatic document feeder to scan and store documents. We have two other scanners but none with a document feeder. After fiddling with the scanner for hours, and after more than an hour with Micro-tek technical support, we were informed that the Macintosh software controlling the document feeder was defective with no date for any fixes. We were told that we could keep the scanner while checking their web site for fixes, or return the scanner. Conse-quently, as the scanner was of no use to us, we returned it. It is amazing to us that a com-pany can ship a product and software which doesn't work together. We can't imagine that we're the first Macintosh users to test this product, yet it took Microtek technical support more than an hour to figure out the software didn't work. We'll never buy another Micro-tek product again.
Vista Users - RUN AWAY! [Posted on 2007-09-09]
If you just upgraded your computer and it's running Microsoft Vista, go look at a different brand of scanner. I made the mistake of buying this one just before upgrading to Vista, and after months of promises of Vista drivers from Microtek, they've recently decided not to provide Vista drivers for this one.
Slow and problematic [Posted on 2008-03-28]
We have had a Microtek Scanmaker i800 for several years. It has great color and D-max. BUt we needed a doc feeder. So we bought this model, assuming a somewhat similar quality and speed would be encountered. WRONG! This unit has a constant banding issue (rainbow stripes appx. 0.5" from the feed edge) and is very slow for an ADF unit.
