Microtek 6000 scanner.......2005-05-20

I bought this scanner for my son at Christmas. I didn't hook it up for about 3 weeks. What a waste of $100! It has never worked. The pics have a purple hue on them which we cant correct. Refuse to pay $30/hr for tech support. Staples refused to take as a return because it was over 2 weeks old (even with receipt). STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!

waste of time.......2005-04-07

I dont know, how it could work, because it didn't want work at all. Careless company.

It does not work on Mac OSX 10.3.......2004-08-18

The latest version 7.16 Scan Wizardry does not work.
They say it is compatible with OSX 10.3.

However, G5, Powerbook G4 12", I-Mac G4 running 10.3 had crashed at the start up of the program.

Customer support will charge you $30 per every 30min. if you call to them.

Do not buy it. Do not waste money.

Beware of this product.......2004-07-24

This product has NO SUPPORT, and Microtek will not answer E-mail or online product support requests. The drivers bundled and shipped with the product are abysmal. Before buying check out the numerous sites with endless users complaining about their "useless paperweights". But, then what do you expect from a company that has been transferred from one owner to another repeatedly the last few years, and according to the Milwaukee Business Journal has been whittled down to only 17 employees.

Nice scans and options.... but..........2004-06-13

It scans normal pictures beautifully and quicker than my old scanner. The buttons are convenient and easy to use, as is the included software. My only two gripes are that the scanner glass had a few white flecks on the INSIDE of the glass (and no way to clean them off), and the fact that images scanned with the film scanner look faded and overexposed.
