What is the BEST software for this scanner? Best bang for the buck?

I don't know, I don't use the software. Software comes with the scanner, you might try that first and see how that works for you.

Arc310 works nice. By the way I have a GRECOM PSR-410 I would like to sell if your interested. Like new with all original accessories and box. $125.

i do not know. i used the disc that came with and could not get it work on either of my computers. I tried the online software and could not get it to work either. I was able to see the scanners control panel but the controls would not respond. I did not bother to research because my problem may have been the pin cord, I bought a cheap one. my recommendation is to use the high dollar pin connector to usb. Radio shack has one for around 60 bucks

Programing the scanner to specific frequencies is very easy. If you're not into reading manuals, you can go to YouTube, which is what I did, and watch a little kid show you how it's done.

I did not purchase this exact item because I think this is an updated version of the one I originally purchased. I returned it. It was extremely difficult to work with in scanning slides, very slow and the color resolution was awful. I eventually purchased a Canon CanoScan 8800F flatbed scanner from Amazon (probably five years ago) and love it! I scanned almost 15,000 slides and it is still going strong. Easy to work with, great for scanning slides, negatives, photos or documents. I have Windows XP and it is compatible. Remember, I purchased it years ago so I am sure there is an updated version of the one I have. I cannot say enough good about it. Not to mention customer service for Canon products is located in the U.S. I have contacted them twice and always received knowledgeable, understandable and quick resolution to my questions. I think I paid right at $200 for the Canon, but it would be worth it at twice the price. I would strongly encourage you to NOT purchase the Pacific Image unit.

No, not even close. The best thing you can do for your sanity (and any family members around you) is to go to www.radioreference.com, get a premium membership for $20 and use FreeScan (Free) to program your scanner. If you don't do this I promise you , you will NEVER get that time spent back in your life struggling with manual programming. We're talking $20 to program, and reprogram the scanner an UNLIMITED number of times. Best money EVER spent.

Exactly what the (software) is that comes with it I cannot say. I can tell you that it does come with everything you need that makes it a great scanner. I hope this helps.

This question is over my head. All I know is the scanner does not work and I let to much time go by to return it because it was a Christmas gift bought to early.

The scanner is very fast and easy to set up. There is a learning curve with the software. If you put in the time you will get out more. If not, you will be frustrated.

Regards M. N. Magan, Sorry I can not comment on the performance on linux, I use it on microsoft. I have the scanner 5 years old and I have not had any problem, I would buy without hesitation.

With my dealings with VuPoint scanners I would suggest you throw it away and buy a better one (more money, but worth it) that has a driver for Windows7or8. Quality copies were rare with my VuPoint.

I was very disappointed with this software and tossed it. I can't answer your question. I've wasted a lot of $$$ buying cheap and not so cheap software that promises great results but I ended up with poor quality results. I've been using Stitch ERA Universal, its been free to use online but that will stop in December, and one of their options is to buy a subscription for monthly use. If I need to scan anything, I use CorelDraw and import it into Stitch Era. I'm happy with the results and they've been professional quality. Good Luck!

In all the years I have used the software it has never failed to work with any scanner we had. I would be very surprised if you have a scanner that will not work. If by chance you do have an issue they are great to work with and would never leave you high and dry.

Thank you for your quick reply. What about the MF4690? I posted a similar question regarding that one. It seems much newer. Does it happen to have a function that somehow supports duplex scanning, without having to *manually* re-order the pages?

Vuescan is fantastic and far more affordable than Silverfast which is outrageously priced. Mr Hamrick is great about support. He personally answers most questions in 24-48 hours via email. I would recommend the Pro version as it is much more flexible. I use Vuescan with my Coolscan 5000 and current Epson scanner.

Yes it is - I am no techie. It's a good scanner!! Worth paying the extra money to upgrade to this model.

Yes, I recommend it. I've had four different scanners. This is by far the best, light, multiple resolution settings, color or b/w. I love this one.

There is no software. The scans save to an SDCard. The scanner comes with a USB stick that you can plug the SDCard into and then insert into your computer.

The scanner works great. The image is saved to a folder you designate with the software that comes with the scanner. Very easy setup.
