I hope the above product would be great for 98/nt/w2k.
but I have XP and like the same I have scanner Epsom Perfection 660 and it simply doesn't work. I bought one, didn't work, didn't know and replaced for another new one and it again didn't work. I didn't know whether it (the scanner) was compatible in XP.
thanx |

Best scanner I've ever owned

| I've had my 636U over a year now and it has never caused me any problems. That is a testament to how well designed this scanner and software are. I've used a lot of scanners from inexpensive parallel port models to a costly SCSI model and the Epson is the one I will choose every time. I've used it with Windows ME and Linux to scan photos, artwork and business materials. Scanning is fast with the 12mbps USB port although you will notice a slowdown when scanning at higher resolutions because of the large amount of image data generated. That's common to all high resolution scanners and not a problem associated with this particular unit or USB in general. The scanner works with Windows Imaging, Photoshop 5.5 through 6.0a, MS Photo Edit and other software using the Epson Twain utility. The Epson Twain software has never crashed my computer and its setup was a simple, one-time only affair. Another big plus is that this scanner works with Linux. I use it most often as my input device for the GIMP program using the Xsane scanner interface. With this OS and app setup, I've never had a problem from this scanner. Given my good experience with the 636U, I have recommended Epsons to friends and family alike. My next scanner will definitely be another Epson Perfection. |

Dear Public,
This version of Epson Perfection does not support the new Windows edition of XP, therefore I would upgrade to a newer epson version of the scanner.Scanner Tester |

Excellent value; good quality, fast scans

| I've been using this scanner for over a year now, and still like it very much. I bought it to replace a two-year old Umax parallel port scanner that was making me crazy with its glacially slow scans and hard-to-use software. The Epson Perfection 626 USB was much easier to install, does much faster pre-scans and final scans, comes with software that is a joy to use, and does scans that are a very high quality. The only problem I've had with this scanner is that sometimes after using my HP PhotoSmart Photo Scanner, the next time I try to use my Epson document scanner, I can't use it until I reinstall it within Windows (which just takes a few minutes). That may be the HP's fault, though, not Epson's, and it doesn't happen every time I use the HP. Speaking of scanning photos, the Epson does a pretty good job scanning color prints itself, as good as the HP Photo Scanner. It's not designed, however, to scan negatives or slides (unlike the HP), and at this price, it wouldn't do a very good job of that, anyway; the resolution would be too low. But if you're considering replacing an aging parallel port document scanner that you don't like, and you have a reasonably fast Pentium II PC or higher with a USB port, I think you'll find the Epson Perfection 636 USB scanner well worth the money. |

Another Great one from Epson

| This is a great scanner. I bought this scanner for the computer lab for the school I work at. Even with a great number of kids using the scanner everyday it has performed spectacularly even since we purchased it about 8 months ago. It is connected to an Imac at this time but it also worked flawlessly connected to a win 98 box, both of these where via USB. For the price it was much faster than I anticipated. Some of that is the faster connection of the USB. I would recommend this for not only a lab setting but also for home. If this thing works great in a computer lab, then it's certain to work great at home. |
