Mustek's Plug-n-Scan 600CP is compact easy-to-use scanner. The 600CP's modest profile of 16.4 by 11.1 by 2.5 inches and its light weight of 5.1 pounds is due to its compact image sensor (CIS) technology, which eliminates the need for a mirror, lens, and a separated light source. The Plug-n-Scan captures 300 x 600 dpi, 30-bit images from your originals, recognizing over 1 billion colors internally. It can enhance these images to 9,600 dpi and can save over 16 million colors, the maximum allowed by GIF or JPG file formats. The 600CP's enhanced parallel port permits a quick connection to your PC. Plus, if you're already using a parallel printer, you'll enjoy the convenience of the extra pass-through port to plug your printer into.
Direct Scan and TextBridge software accompany the 600CP and make for a painless scanning process. If you need more editing control over the 600CP's images, you can export them as needed to any TWAIN- or TWAIN32-compliant software. The inexpensive 600CP is a low-end scanner that's easy to operate. --Eli Huntington

Customer Reviews:
No support, no compatability.......2002-04-26
Think twice before buying this particular item.......2001-08-09
Amazon says: "Easy to install and use" - it's not true. Driver installation program is random, behaves really funny on different machines.
OCR software (TextBridge) does not work at all. Well, it simulates that it's working, simulates that it's trying to recognize text... In fact, it's not recognition, it's guesswork.
I used ABBYY FineReader demo version with the same scanner and Wow! that's what I call recognition.
Dear Mustek, I do not like to pay extra dollars for scrap. Please, do not bundle such stuff anymore
Output image quality is really poor. I wish I could read somebody's comment before buying this item.
Scanner "swallows" highlites but reproduces shadows and midtones normally.
If you plan to scan fotos, but not text, forget about this scanner and avoid buying this mysticism.
If you are buying this scanner to recognize text (as I do), consider buying ABBEE Fine Reader. But, buying scanner and OCR separately doen't make sense, does it?
Isn't it wiser to search for better offer?
