I have never heard of Pro Scan products. Who is the parent company and are they known for reliability?

My ProScan has just died after only 8 months of life! At the price I paid I am livid and disappointed and will spread the word as much aspossible to NOT buy one of their T. V.s! No refund, no response from Proscan except to see a technician.....what happened to the one year warranty?

The Proscan was originally part of RCA, when RCA was a subsidiary of General Electric. Its goal was to design high end, high definition television (HDTV) brand to compete with Sony and Pioneer brands. General Electric later sold RCA to the French-based Thomson Consumer Electronics. Thomson, in turn, sold the RCA TV division to China's TCL. But before selling RCA, Thomson licensed the Proscan Brand to ON Corporation. ON Corporation is a private company. The company is based in South Korea, with offices in San Diego, California. Proscan televisions are manufactured in China.

You could get away w/ ScanSnap ix1500, Mine takes a beating and does fine. The other more expensive units might not do any better. But pick the one that is the newest You really cannot go wrong with Fujitsu

Vuescan is fantastic and far more affordable than Silverfast which is outrageously priced. Mr Hamrick is great about support. He personally answers most questions in 24-48 hours via email. I would recommend the Pro version as it is much more flexible. I use Vuescan with my Coolscan 5000 and current Epson scanner.

Too late for Anni, but if anyone else has this question . . . I have had this scanner for nearly longer than I can remember (at least more than 7 years of heavy use) with ABSOLUTELY NO failures/issues.

I dont know to be honest. All I know was that the version I had crashed constantly. To top it off, I was casually informed by their customer service one day that about 2 years worth of saved receipts and documents were gone. No notices, or heads up about this.. just sorry, they are now gone.. I wouldn't buy a ream of paper from this company much less a piece of equipment to scan valuable documents..

Yes, I am using the same system and the card scan works fine. This was a great investment, which really saves me a lot of time.

Yes, the deluxe software bundle was worth getting. This is the best scanner I have ever owned. Now I know why my employer's IT department chose Fujitsu for our front line employees. I am finally getting things organized in my home office.

So far the best option is the fujitsu scansnap. Waiting for the price to come down a hair before I bite the bullet.

I did not purchase this exact item because I think this is an updated version of the one I originally purchased. I returned it. It was extremely difficult to work with in scanning slides, very slow and the color resolution was awful. I eventually purchased a Canon CanoScan 8800F flatbed scanner from Amazon (probably five years ago) and love it! I scanned almost 15,000 slides and it is still going strong. Easy to work with, great for scanning slides, negatives, photos or documents. I have Windows XP and it is compatible. Remember, I purchased it years ago so I am sure there is an updated version of the one I have. I cannot say enough good about it. Not to mention customer service for Canon products is located in the U.S. I have contacted them twice and always received knowledgeable, understandable and quick resolution to my questions. I think I paid right at $200 for the Canon, but it would be worth it at twice the price. I would strongly encourage you to NOT purchase the Pacific Image unit.

I was told that Epson scanners were the best for the money. I had difficulty with the software on my PC with Windows 64 bit Ultimate. Eventually I returned the scanner and stayed with the HP. Sorry I can't answer your question.

Yes. It works beautifully! We have had it for several weeks now and already find it indispensable. It scans quickly and the output is high quality!

It's a great fax machine, but it is not a network scanner. You are better off with an "all-in-one" copier, scanner, printer & fax if that is your requirement. You can find some very good ones in the same price range from HP and Dell.

The bundled software is Presto Pagemanager 9, from NewSoft. NewSoft has a fairly highly regarded OCR product, but as this short review notes, the OCR in Pagemanager does not seem to be as good. Personally, I haven't used the OCR function, but I use scan to multi-page pdf on a daily basis and that's pretty bullet proof.

I've only scanned a handful of docs-seems to work good. Our multi page feeder works great. We have the 8910 at our front desk-small healthcare office & I have our old 8860 back by my desk & that still works good including multi feeder after 5 or 6 years. We like the Brother machines after several bad experiences with HP. Good luck. Jim
