[QUOTE="Daggarjon, post: 307591, member: 4230"]I bought an Epson scanner about 6 months ago. after using it for 3 days :eek:, it broke... making tons of noise i think caused by the 'chain' or whatever its called the controlls the light bar. so i get lots of noise, and dragged images. SO - i sent it off to get fixed (after a few months because i was a wee-bit upset it borke after 3 days). After sending it out tio be fixed, it took a month to get back. Now, when i was at the repair shop, i asked the guy abouth the scanner. He told me it was a light suty scanner (fair enough) and that its best used for only about an hour at a stretch and then let sit for a while to cool down. SO - i get the 'fixed scanner home, and try it out.. after 1/2 hour, it starts making the noise again. So, i call ti quits for the night.. thinking i will pick it up the following night, let the machien cool down. Well, its bee a week, and still makes the noise. So i will call the repair shop tommorow :loud:, and possibly send it off to get 'repaired' once more. heck, it has a year warranty .. i figure at this rate, after the year is up .. i 'might' get 7 days of workign order out of it!!! So - heres the question for all you scanning folks out there... WHAT DO YOU USE?? Clembo? you scan tons fo stuff! what do you use that stands up to it? De Orc... the same goes for you.. Rotobeast.. i noticed you scanned tons of stuff tonight (nice coins BTW)...so what do you use that works? RickeyB -- i would love your scanner :D i think in reality your notes are worn just like mine and that its your high powered scanner that makes look so crisp :D :D I am just getting a bit tired of these chinsey scanners not working for crap! I cant spend $400 on a scanner that will allow me to scan 4,000 items in an hour. I just need a decent scanner for home thatalows me to do my hobby thing and allow me to scan :) ok, for all those who braved this post to read it all :) thanks:p[/QUOTE]
