    Don't waste your time with this scanner!!
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2005*

This is,hands down, the most worthless piece of equipment I've ever had the misfortune to buy. Yeah, the reviews were pretty good and it has all the features I was looking for but, it refuses to work. The software is hard to navigate and, most of the time, locks my computer. Windows XP can't find the scanner. I give up. I've owned this pos for over a year and have yet to get one scan from it. Their website is equally useless. Do yourself a favor and look at HP or some other brand that actually functions. Now I have another money losing thing to try to dispose of.

    What a pain...
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2004*

I received this as a gift from my husband for Xmas '02 to replace my Visioneer flatbed that had started to scan in funny colors. Let me say that I really loved my Visioneer. First of all, the scanner installed pretty easily, no problems there. But... when I reboot XP, it takes 60 seconds just to boot the scanner before most of my other programs can load. Also, you have to manually open the ScanMaker 5 program and click the scanner control button and then close out of the program to get the light to go off. I wouldn't ever buy another one of these. I've also had a big problem with lint inside the machine under the glass, causing big problems with clean scans. I've tried about everything I can think of and still have the problem. I've even cleaned the glass on both sides with alcohol and newspaper! What a rip off. My advice is to stay far away from Microtek products.

    Don't Waste Your Time.....
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2003*

Purchased Microtek ScanMaker 4850 in spite of reading all of the not so favorable reviews.  I should have taken the reviews "very" seriously.  I wasted alot of time installing and uninstalling the software because it just would not responding to my OPS, XP...Dell Computer, 512MB. Take the reviews seriously and don't waste your time!!!!
