Pandigital PANSCN01 PhotoLink Mini Scanner -Black

this item met all my expectations. I am very pleased with my purchase It has fulfilled the need and reason for purchase.

I bought this scanner to scan documents into my computer. It works great. Does exactlly what it implies. Scans. It does a great job on pictures as well.The price was awesome.

Price was right and quality was sufficient for my scanning needs. I was very pleased with the quality of the equipment.

The yellow cartridge leaves a yellow streak down the side of every page. We tried taking it out and cleaning the end but that only lasted a couple of pages. I will have to replace it to do business type papers. Is it under any kind of warranty? The others have worked fine and the price is very reasonable.

Mine is didnt work

I owned a flatbed scanner that had a photo feeder attachment and it did the same thing. When I talked to HP they sent me two whole new feeders over a 6 month period of time. They said that the problem was that ANY spec of dust that gets on the photo or in the feeder will leave a scratch mark all the way down the length of the photo. They did not have a fix for this. Since I dont work in a 100,000 clean room, this technology is not for me. I gave this one a shot and it did the exact same thing. I cant believe that they put a product like this on the market knowing all to well that it is a flawed bit of technology. It is criminal in my opinion.

I bought this to scan photos - of course. After approximately 30 photos, the scanner needs to be recalibrated. You are also supposed to be able to view the pics as scan them, but I cant. The File Explorer window CLOSES every time you scan. You have to go back in each time. I was waiting until after I scanned a batch at a time. After about 30 photos, you have to unplug, clean the machine, then calibrate it. Its a shame. I was looking forward to using this. Dont waste your money. Just use a regular document scanner instead.

Easy to transfer pictures

I was so excited about scanning my old photos. Loved the idea of the photo feeder. Within 30 to 40 scans I was getting a 1 dark band and white lines in the middle of the pictures. Not all, just some, but enought to put it back in the box and return it to the store. Best Buy, Bed Bath and Beyond, Staples, Frys, and Target no longer carry the unit. Staples claimed it was a holiday item. Was it because of all of the complaints? I really like the unit, hated the quality. Mine was the white Model O5 which appears to be their most current product.

Im puzzled by all the bad reviews and lines reported in the scanned photos. Mine does a wonderful job of scanning 4x6 photos exactly as they are. I did buy mine through Woot, so I dont know if it was reconditioned at the great price I paid, but it is fun and quick to send 50 year old pictures from my photo albums to family and friends as attachements or printed out on snapfish or one of the other services.
