Epson Perfection 610

With a scanner like this, what else would you want more? Excellent quality, simple operation and outright speed make this a clear winner. My previous scanner gave up the ghost quite a while ago so I was looking at a new high quality scanner to use hat home. I was looking at the cheaper 30 pound models and decided to try them and they were terrible quality and very slow. I then decided to pay a bit more and got thins wonderful Epson Perfection610. Plugged it in and flicked through the well laid out instruction manual. Loaded the correct drivers and the scanner worked for the first time. I was very impressed by the quality of the scans and also the ...  Read the complete review

I had posted an opinion earlier this month on the Multifunction printer, scanner, copier and fax, that I had purchased, which was the Canon Multipass C530. Prior to this I was using the Epson Perfection 610. I purchased this Flatbed Scanner early last year at a price of around PDS.100.00 (One hundred pounds) The scanner was very easy to hook up. Just plug in the USB, plug in the power, install the software and your done. I think it took me only 15 minutes from the time I took it out of the box. It comes with Adobe Photoshop 5 software, which is very useful and probably the best around, at that time, for this scanner. Maximum ...  Read the complete review

This is a very nice scanner, and has great quality and value for money. Scans are very sharp, and the colors good. Performance is good for a scanner this size. I’ve scanned 4 standard photographs at 300dpi in less than 35 seconds. Image quality is high. Sure it might not be the fastest ad its grey scans aren't the best, but it fits my personal needs more than sufficiently. I love it. Great for copying documents, scanning pictures, or faxing. It gets the job done easily and efficiently. The software is easily installed and the manual is very user-friendly. The only thing I felt lacking was the TWAIN software. It too features all the necessities, but ...  Read the complete review

What a superb scanner. After I purchased this brilliant piece of work, I opened the box to find detailed instructions all in English thank god! Once i removed the scanner, all the wires that were needed were present, I attached the scanner and Instantly windows found it, and installed it from my installation CD. What suprised me about this scanner is the software bundle. Adobe Photoshop 5 FULL is included which is a VERY good piece of software. This scanner is also very easy to use. You place the picture in the scanner and just press a button on the scanner and its done. The quality is superb and so is the speed which can also be adjusted if you have a good picture ...  Read the complete review

The Epson Perfection 610 is at the bottom of the Epson Scanner ladder. Don't let this put you off though! Rated at 600x2400 optical resolution, the 610 has more than enough ability for normal home use. Prices at around £110 in the shops, this scanner is aimed at taking on the rest of the Agfa, Umax, HP gang, and to most intent and purposes, it does the job admirably. Resolution is high compared to its competitors, speed is also a strong point. A browse through any PC magazine reviewing these scanners vouches for that. Image clarity and line art is also mentioned as a forte! In fact, theres not much wrong with this scanner really. One downside worthy of mention ...  Read the complete review
