Lousy image quality.......2004-06-11

The 7700 was a replacement for my years old Microtek X6 that had been a good scanner but was beginning to show its age. The drivers installed without a hitch and I was up and running in less than 10 minutes.

Unfortunately, the image quality of this scanner is terrible. I tried dozens of combinations of the manual settings, trying to get some scans that were acceptable. Even with the full "48 bits" skin tones and color graduatiions were completely unnatural. Add to this the occasional scan that had light verical lines. I returned the unit (thanks Amazon) and subsequently purchased a Canon LiDE 30 that works fine.

Fine scanner, Very poor device driver.......2004-03-13

I got the scanner from Amazon on sale! It took me about an hour to get it to work with Win XP (Installed the so-called XP certified updated driver from Visioneer web site). Still every time I start the PC, the driver works on a randomly fashion!

Apparently, this problem is very common and their customer support receives a lot of complaints about their drivers.

If you have WIN XP and you dont mind re-installing the driver every once a while, it might be a good scanner for you. The scanning quality is just fine.

Drivers thin, performance subpar, glitches, colors, etc........2003-08-27

In design, it seems sleek, useful < two card ports built right in> and fast. EXCEPT... Windows XP/XP Pro,, simply hates the drivers supplied. Constant battles to get the computer to not only recognize the scanner, but to KEEP IT installed.I have had many a fine day wasted just getting it reconfigured to work. NOTHING else is changed, yet the system constantly cant " find" the scanner. Just a nightmare that the drivers never seem to solve.
Now, performance. I have had numerous problems with severely distorted colors, mysterious " bands and streaks" across photos scanned, rendition and color way off the mark, all around, I would NEVER buy a visioneer again. I bought a 5820 to try n get buy with it, till I can afford a Minolta 5400 or Dual Scan elite, the visioneer 5820 wont even operate or configure with XP.visoneer has a lousy reputation with Windows, and Win XP goes to great lengths to make sure you DONT purchase another Visioneer scanner. I cant rate it lower than 1 star, or i would.

Love it!.......2003-07-09

The software Visioneer provides with their scanners is what sets them apart from Epson, HP, Canon, and all the others. Forget multiple scanning operations and fiddling with setting to get the scan right. Kiss cheap drivers goodbye.

There are multiple buttons on the scanner itself which are preprogrammed for the "one-touch scanning" feature, or you can program them yourself using the software. Press a button, and it just does what you want. You can send the output to wherever you choose, whether it be straight to the printer, to the scan software, or to your photo editing program. Have your document OCRed and sent to Word. Fax it to someone. The flexibility of this scanner is amazing. And it all comes preprogrammed for those who don't know or don't care how to customize it.

I love Visioneer and have three of their scanners (office, home 1, and home 2). Check them out!

Image quality sucks.......2002-11-21

I upgraded to the 7700 from the old 6100B. I'd got great scans from that scanner, so thought i'd stick with Visioneer. BIG MISTAKE! The image quality of this scanner [is bad]. I too went through many hastles trying to install on an XP machine. Finally i succeeded, but when i scan, i get bad contouring of the image (scan pictures with lots of sky, or skin tones and you can see steps in the color) and quite often, lots of lines across the scan.
After hours of technical support (most of which were waiting for someone to answer the phone), and after being instructed to reinstal the software twice, they sent me a new scanner. Same problem! I heard CIS scanners has poor image quality, but this thing is un-usable....
