what is the scanner quality?

I have never had a complaint..., and it is much much better than our old HP. Of course, I don't know how to measure "scanner quality" other than by looking at the output.

The software has 3 levels of interface - from fully auto to complete user control. I only use it in the "Professional" mode - providing maximum flexibility. The quality and speed are excellent. Has a great pdf converter built in. Would not be suitable for negatives or slides as it only does reflective scanning

No - if you haven't bought it don't! I bought one several years ago - it worked for about a month. It was glitchy and cumbersome to use. Brother, who makesthe scanner had little/no support.

It does a fine job. I have scanned several photos and have been very happy with results. You can set the quality to various levels to meet your demands.

I'm reasonably satisfied with scanned photos. To get a good copy photo must be on a flat surface. If anything 'lifts' the scanner off the surface the process breaks up. Color rendition is also acceptable but the editing program for improving contrast and color balance is very basic. I don't know whether a better editing program can be incorporated. Hope this helps you out.

Quick Scan is quick,maybe 5 seconds. At 7200dpi highest resolution it can take 5 minutes. At 3200dpi its maybe 2couple minutes. I haven't actually timed it. I'm pleased with the results I'm getting. A good value.

If you're trying to cast spells, probably not :) If you're scanning pictures it's pretty good. You will get better quality with a regular scanner.

300 dpi is plenty good enough for scanning. The files are very readable, even those pesky receipts you get from the stores. I only used 150 dpi on my old scanner to scan my docs for archiving, so 300 is more than adequate for me. If you were doing PHOTOS, then I'd go for the 600 DPI.

Pretty good. Can do single or multiple page scans. Quality choices are okay.

I'm not aware of any color problems while scanning. I can say I bought the scanner in 2010 and it still works perfectly.

I typically use photos of documents for my text conversions and I find the quality of the table scan depends depends on the quality of the photo input. if the photo is slightly out of focus the ocr output is poor. A scanner should be better quality than some photos so it should work.

Sure, no problem. I usually scan at 300 dpi but I think it can even go higher. Saves as a JPEG or whatever you want!

I've had no problems with poor quality scanned photos. The default is set to 300dpi, have you tried increasing it to 600dpi? That's what I always use and that works for me. I believe the max is 1200dpi. You may want to play around with that setting and see. Also don't be fooled by the scan preview, it's not an exact representation of what the scanned photo/doc will look. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your inquiry! This scanner scans at the following DPI's: Standard: 300 DPI (default); High: 600 DPI; Fine: 900 DPI.

I have found the scanner to be every bit as good as a HP5P that I have previousy used for color family photographs. It has high resolution which allows enlargement of smaller photographs with high quality resulis. It is so handy to use, I never use the HP any more. I might add that the scanning software included is excellent. Wendell Hanson

I have been very satisfied with the quality of the scan of photo's both color and b&w.; Speed of the scanner is great, comparing it to an earlier CanoScan I had. I have had some difficulty bringing up the advanced tools to scan negatives, but need to read the manual for detailed directions. I would recommend this scanner.

YES & YES and it does a reasonably good job, too. I mainly use the Scan to PDF & JPEG options and have been really pleased with the results. Scanning is slow, but for a portable unit is does many things well and there have to be a few sacrifices for the portability sake. Keep in mind that it runs just fine on battery mode too... just can not go wrong with this unit !!!

Not sure what you mean? It makes quality copies. Functions well with CD/DVD. What do you mean "quality scans?"
