I have a Microtek E3 and figure that for the money it is not a bad<br>
|
|
scanner.<br>
|
|
However, I would never purchase anything again from Microtek! I had some<br>
|
|
problems with the scanner while still under warranty and had a very<br>
|
|
tough<br>
|
|
time getting though to Microtek to get a RMA. They have an 800 # but<br>
|
|
don't accept service requests on it...for that you have to use the pay<br>
|
|
#.<br>
|
|
According to the gal at the 800 # the average wait time (while I was<br>
|
|
paying)<br>
|
|
was about 40 minutes. They also didn't respond to faxes. They finally<br>
|
|
(after<br>
|
|
about 10 days) did reply to email and I finally got it all shipped back,<br>
|
|
fixed<br>
|
|
and returned (once in the system it was reasonable). But the BS I had to<br>
|
|
go<br>
|
|
though to get some simple service has forever left a bad taste in my<br>
|
|
mouth<br>
|
|
in regards to Microtek. My advise is to check the return policy/method<br>
|
|
BEFORE<br>
|
|
you buy.<br>
