Visioneer OneTouch 7300 USB Ultra-Slimline Flatbed Scanner

Since I had a Visioneer One Touch already installed on my computer (The reason I bought this one is that the last one died. I got great service from the previous one.), I assumed the installation would go without a hitch. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. To date, I have been unsuccessful in installing the software and the scanner is sitting on my desk with my "in box" on top of it. I haven't had the time to sit on the phone, going through the long "automated" help menus.I haven't given up yet, but neither do I have a working scanner!

I was looking forward to a new scanner after my HP died after just a year. I purchased this one based on the several good reviews on Amazon and other sites.Now that I have the scanner I am sorely disappointed. The picture quality is horrible. No matter the tweaking I do in the scanner dialog, the picture is faded and grainy.The software itself is the least useful interface I've ever worked with. The "auto" buttons makes the image worse, the image area recognition has never yet gotten it right, and the most useful feature only applies if you are sending the scan to Paperport, something I never want to do.

Its very good as long as you don't change/upgrade your OS. I just can't understand why the manufacturer does not upgrade the drivers? Works fine on Windows XP. But one can't live with XP all the time?

Was advertised as being able to use with Vista. You can't and you can't update the software. Still usable but not as I wanted

The price was excellent but the standard shipping was very slow. It doesn't work with Vista, no drivers, so is useless to me. I gave it to my son and it works fine with Windows XP. My son has used it to scan pictures for me and it is of good quality.

Color, grayscale and monochrome modes work well with Windows and Linux. Windows installation was a little clumsy, perhaps because the drivers for an older Visioneer scanner were still installed. Linux immediately recognized the scanner.

the scanner is great. i love it, there are a few different scan types and to me that is a good feature because i can go from photos to notes in school in three clicks of a mouse. the scanner not having a power cord makes all the difference. it was a really good buy for me.

The scanner seems to be just what I need although I haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'm taking it to Africa where I'll be scanning documents in a library. Update. It is now 2011 and I am still using this scanner. It is so easy to use.
