I recently got it. I tested out just to see it works. I am impressed at all the features it has. I am an artist and I needed a scanner that folds open at the short end not the horizontal sides. This will be easier to scan sections of large artwork I do to peace back together in Photoshop. I read the instructions and it is a feather where it says it can scan sections together. If this is true I won't have to open up Photoshop to piece together scanned sections of large art. This scanner is about same width as typing paper but longer then 11" typing paper. So it will easil scan legal paper. I am very impressed with all the features this scanner has. It is amazing. I hope they all work.

Great large format scanner so far. The quality of my scans are very nice. The colors are always perfect. My only beef is that the editing tool does not give me the option of cleaning up the margins on my work. Using a mouse-directed pointer for the “erase” function is awkward. I have to jump thru a few hoops to get this accomplished. I do it by cropping the pic and saving it. Later I can resize the pic and have clean margins. It would be nice to have an easier way. I have also scanned my 11x17 inch pics and they also have great color. Just scan at the highest resolution and you’ll be fine. I paired this scanner with a the Canon Pro-300 large format printer and I’m off to the races. Don’t think I’ll be paying a professional printer for copies anytime soon.

I bought this, hoping to get an affordable A3 scanner. I saw the other reviews mentioning the bad color balance and thought it couldn't be THAT bad. It was worse. Every scan had washed out colors and had a very yellow hue. Adjusting the image in the included software did little and I just couldn't get it anywhere close to the actual thing being scanned. My scanner/printer combo was more accurate and didn't require post-processing. Scans also had streaks in them where they don't exist on the physical item. And it's not a case of a dirty scanning area; this was straight out of the box. Even worse is that I strongly suspect this isn't a true A3 scanner. Every scan, even a blank white piece of paper, had a 1-pixel line down it, exactly where the middle of the scanner is, in one of the aforementioned streaks. I'm guessing the scan bar is made of two units and the images are joined in post. This line makes it absolutely useless for the archiving job I bought it for. Save your money and hope for a deal on one from an established brand.

The installation without CD (i dont have CD drive on laptop) was simple. The scanning at the highest DPI setting works really well. The image size is massive and detailed. Im glad I finally found a scanner for my artwork that was too big to scan with the smaller Canon scanner I have. edit: updating my review. As another reviewer stated, the quality of color scans is noticeably washed out. What a drag.

This is a high-end scanner that is easy to use and produces great images up to 1200 dpi. Software is included on a CD or through downloading from the manufacturer. Its price argues against purchase by a casual user. It is not portable.

The scanner I bought goes up to 1200 resolution, but as my go to choice is 600 resolution, it’s fine. My biggest note is that it’s very noisy, the scanner moves at a good steady speed, but it makes a squeaking noise as it does. It doesn’t bother me, since the scan is done so quick. I’ve added an artwork I drew and scanned. One other very minor note, I sometimes use fluorescent markers, they look very different when scanned then to the eye. I have yet to scan them as I see them, but it sorta makes sense given fluorescent colors are reactive to environmental light. The work around I’m currently testing is mixing the fluorescent colors with another similar color, it dulls the color but makes it easier to capture in scan form my test so far. This is demonstrated in the image, the sun in the first half is a fluorescent orange, the sun beams mixed with a pale yellow color, and are closer to the color I see with my eyes. The moon in the second half is also a fluorescent color, & The second image is the photo of the same art. Overall it’s a blessing to finally have a scanner again. I can share my art at high resolution, or in smaller dimensions but exactly the same image.

It's hard to find an affordable scanner that can scan something larger than 8.5 x 11", so I was glad to find this. However, after just a few scans, mine started adding a 70px wide black vertical stripe down every scan. To their credit, they sent me a replacement unit, which hasn't been adding the vertical stripes, but its scans are blurry. An image looks no sharper scanned at 1200dpi than it looks at 300dpi. The blurry parts just have more pixels in them. The colors are washed out and wrong. I realized my iPhone makes a much better image and gave up on this scanner.

I gave this a test run using a print of a ship, not a real-photo, using their descreening utility and it worked well. The print shown above is a 11x14 at 300 DPI. After scan was done I resized to 1600 pixel on longest side. Without using the descreening utility the image looks like crap and I am very happy the tool was in the software provided with the scanner. All in all I am well pleased with the product. You do need space to install this. Installation was easy though I had to go to my DVD drive and manually click on setup to get it started.
