It will be one less perfectly good scanner in the landfill site. Usage at higher resolution other than the default results in slow operation and huge file sizes.Scan times as advertised can be misleading because they really only apply to the default resolution setting which is generally the lowest available.Noise can be a problem, but unless you are scanning an entire book, the buzz saw sound is never that bad.OCR software may have improved since I last tried it but it sure was hit and miss back then. For basic stuff like red eye removal, the free Windows picture viewers do a decent job too. Some people are still using Paint Shop Pro 7 for photo editing, and why not.New versions of support programs like photo editors, OCR’s etc.Īll good stuff but consider the reasons for not buying new.To offset the cost, I believe that you get a five license package so that the software can be used on multiple computers on a home network for instance.īut there are compelling reasons to buy new Pricing is essentially half the price of a new scanner, or almost full price of a new scanner. There are two versions of Vuescan: standard or professional.

It works, and I should be really pleased, and I was until I clicked on ‘Purchase now’.
