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.

My son was looking for larger scanners to scan large books and projects. This one is a great value for the money and works well and is very easy to use. Durable, with a quick scanning speed. The image quality is great and is compatible with his Dell desktop computer and laptop.

Bought this new in May 2022 because it advertised being able to scan photos with exact color matching etc... Purchased this to scan my art so I could make copies digitally. However, every scan looked washed out and dull, not vibrant in any way. I tried every configuration offered within it's software and no results changed. Reviews were very positive so I figured I just didn't know what I was doing. I contacted their "customer service" with image attachments to ask help in how to resolve my issues. They kept reply with "return to default settings", which was what I had sent them in the attached files. Never got any help further than that. I put it away for a long time and decided to try a new computer and give it another go 2 years later. Same results. What had changed was the customer reviews. Suddenly, SEVERAL negative reviews matched my issue without any satisfaction. After having an expert look into my scanner, it seems an overseas maker is putting out dysfunctional versions at an alarming rate and possibly uploading fake positive reviews to attract buyers. At this price, I had hoped perhaps my particular model was a bad one and considered buying a replacement. But after having a professional look into it, it seems this is not a safe purchase to gamble with. I've chosen to donate this hunk of junk.

The description says it's Mac-compatible but the manual is written entirely about using it with a Windows computer and the software on the disk is for Windows. I was able to find the driver to download on the company's website, but I don't think it was the entire software that is available for Windows because I couldn't figure out a way scan except inside Photoshop. If you don't have Photoshop, I'm not sure how you would use it at all. I am happy with the scan quality but be aware that if you are scanning at higher DPI it will be slower than what they show in the video (something that I didn't think about before I bought it).

I was having a hard time finding a scanner that was large enough for 11x17 scans that put out TIF and other high quality formats. I do graphite work and the scans are spot on. Software was easy to install and work with. Occasionally glitchy and needs a restart but I love it for the price.

Works well. Software installed easily in Windows 11 (unlike older model Canon scanners). I use this to scan newspapers in black and white, so can't speak to colors as others have. One slight complaint is that scanning is a bit slow, but not too bad. Also stitching pdf pages together not smooth, but that's not the scanner's fault. I'm happy so far.

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.

this arrived pretty quickly, I unpacked it and connected it and Windows 10 didn't say nothing, didn't say it recognized it or anything. Uh oh bad sign, this. I had downloaded the exe files from their web site cuz I don't got no CD-Rom and the exe file installed everything quickly. The interface surprised me, it looked exactly as the interface of the old EPSON scanner I have been using for over 5 years now. This will be easy I thought cuz I knew this interface. Well, after ONLY just 8 scans, the problems began. The transfer window that shows me the transfer stopped working and is now only showing 0%. The scans DO get scanned and placed on the drive. For a while the scanner would scan blanks and I couldn't figure why. At about 15 scans a vertical line appeared on the right side of the scans. The scans are kinda gray and I have to lighten them in photoshop, brighten the colors and so on. I am accustomed to doing that, I have been scanning for over 20 years, so i expect that to occur. Cheap as s*h*t scanner! DO NOT buy! I will be returning it!
