Just a quick note on OS X drivers for scanners. Epson is now offering purchasers of their Perfection scanners (1250, 1250 PHOTO, Perfection 1650, 1650 PHOTO or Perfection 2450 PHOTO) a mail in deal for OS X drivers and software. You will need your receipt, UPC code, model number, serial number and $3.99 to send in for the CD.

low blow
So now that I have paid for their scanner they want me to fork out more dough for the drivers. Gotta love it.
Two weeks ago...
I sent my check in for these drivers two weeks ago...not a peep, not even a confirmation that they received the email. I hope to see them shortly... As for paying for them, well...as soon as I get them, if Epson doesn't actually make them available on their site (the tone of the mail in coupon emphasized that you had to be a purchaser of the scanner, but why would they really care?) be sure that I'll, um, make them available for my use on any computer that I happen to be on. That's what LimeWire is for, right?
Re: Drivers
Check this out. I sent in my offer 6 weeks ago, and had my entire slough of paper work sent back to me yesterday. I transposed two numbers on the serial number, and they said my serial number was invalid. Rather than e-mail me for clarification, they sent everthing back to me. Looks like I have to wait another 6 weeks. Great!!
disgusting
this is disgusting, epson have such a bad reputation for support already, and now they have the gaul to charge for drivers?!!! im getting on the phone now.
dont bother
i just spoke to Epson, they say the drivers wont be avaiolable til the end of march when they will be available straight away for download.
Epson Scanner Drivers
Those still waiting for Epson scanner drivers for Mac OS X might like to know that Ed Hamricks's shareware VueScanX is ahead of the game.
Autofeed scanners?
I've been looking for a scanner with an autofeeder, for scanning a pile of letter-size documents. I have an old Epson Expression 636, I could buy a feeder for it, but the feeder sells for $495, I could buy a whole new scanner for that price, and I don't really want to throw more money at an older SCSI scanner..
Autofeed scanners?
The HP scanners look good but pricey, they're supported with Vuescan according to the docs.
Why not email Ed Hamrick and ask his opinion of the HP scanners versus the Epson scanners first... BTW, I'm getting great results scanning and archiving old papers with Adobe Acrobat. I scan 300dpi 1-bit tiffs, and they're hugely compressed in the pdf file. They print great on a laser printer, they look just like xerox copies. I estimate I could get about 6000 pages on a CDR. Before you get into that in a big way you might want to check out OmniPage Pro X. It can produce pdfs that fit the above description, but they also have the text of the page embedded behind the image, so you can string search, and also extract the text with standard copy and paste. -- el bid |
