Originally posted by Miguel Not really a scanner; just a cheapo tiny sensor. Like the worst high-megapixel P&S stuck in a box with a hinged glass lid. Used a similar thing from same brand two years ago. Returned it after 10 minutes. It may have value as a scrapbook tool for non- photographers I suppose. What are your output requirements?

In that case, not a whole lot better than my old printer/scanner.
As for my requirements: "clear" and sharp enough to show around once digitized, and maybe add to my "portfolio".

I've done thousands of prints this way very quickly using the printer at work after hours.
You just have to have it set up to send the scans to either your computer or it's internal hard drive.
(As I'm not printing, it doesn't cost my boss any money, so he didn't mind me doing it.)
I've tried a few old prints, being scanned with the Canon MX320 ... it really depends who the prints were in the first place: if they were badly damaged or lacking substantial contrast, the results were flaky, at best.
