"Like the 4830 this would appear to be a third party driver (manufacturer never intended to support XP).

The driver does appear to work BUT NOT with the scanning software it originally came with.

It definately works with Unlead Photo Express (tested and OK) and probably Adobe Photoshop.

I even got it to RUN ON VISTA using Vuescan Pro 8.1"

"it works, but it took me 2 or 3 downloads, 2or 3 reboots, and opening install files to finally get it to turn my scanner light on. then i installed Adobe Photo Shop (it's free, but takes 17 minutes on a dialup)to be able to actually scan something. 3,4 ,5 sessions on the computer made it happen for me the rookie."

"I agree with the comments of Arbesto Pelta.

Sometimes color bands are visible, and the gamma and color stability is not stable. Scanning for the second time helps in most cases.

In general it was usefull, for now it is better than buying a new scanner.

Thanks for now."

It's very easy, after installing the driver and rebooting choose "aquire" from your graphics software (like corel, photoshop or so) this will open the interfase, wich is old and not friendly. Once you are there:

If you receive any odd artifacts (colors and position shifting of the item scanned) just re-prescan. I al
