User Reviews for Microtek Microtek Scanmaker i320

  • Reviewed by: Doby

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: I can't find any that are as good as my old Agfa SnapScan 1212 being replace because the Agfa will not work on Win XP.

    Weaknesses: The amount of steps it takes to get a scan is rediculous. The screen design looks like it was made for beginners about 9 years old. Why not a list instead of big button that have stubid pop-ups.
