Start Scanning Here!

by agklocke , Oct 20 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, easy to use
Cons: Scans somewhat dark, slow
One of my very first purchases for my computer after getting a printer was this scanner. Anxious to begin sending my pictures to all my friends and family too, I begged my husband to let me buy just one more thing. He relented and we visited our local...

Does the Job

by LisaDo Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 06 '00
Pros: Fairly easy to use
Cons: Doesn't always work like I want it to
We bought this scanner as a package deal from the company we bought our computer from. It was one of those "free" scanners when you purchase an over-priced computer. I'll be honest, I was surprised the thing even worked, but it does, and does a...

Steal This Scanner

by Mr.Eyore Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 27 '00
Pros: Very inexpensive
Cons: It is a tad slow.
I did not think I would have any need for a scanner, but at $29.00, The Mustek 600 III was hard to pass up.

About nine months ago, I headed over to Circuit City to pick up a printer that I thought looked like a real bargain. When I got there,...

I received the Mustek 600 III EP Plus from my husband 2 years ago as a gift for Christmas. I had mentioned to him several times since we had purchased our computer, that I would like to one day purchase a scanner. I had recently began maintaining...

Just Another Computer Gadget

by grandgram Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Apr 13 '00
Pros: Inexpensive-easy to use
Cons: Noisy-Text difficult to work
Computers alone are great, adding gadgets make it look like an octopus. You have all those wires, cables, connectors, boosters, plug-ins, you name it, all necessary to get you up and running. Scanners seem to be one of those necessary addition to your...

I was looking for an inexpensive scanner when I discovered the Mustek 600 III EP Plus. It cost around $80 and had a $30 manufacturers rebate so I decided that this would be the one for me.

If Mustek gets any cheaper, they'll be giving them away!

by tony_miller , Nov 18 '00
Pros: Incredibly cheap!
Cons: Takes a long time to warm up!
I looked at several HP and other high-dollar scanners before I found the Mustek 600 III EP scanner at about one-third the price. Three and a half years ago, I bought it for about $120 and since then the prices have steadily decreased until they are...

Pros: Easy to use and many different types of applications
Cons: NONE
When I first got online and started to talk to other people on instant messanger, most of the people would ask me " do you have a picture". Well of course I didn't have one. So I had to describe myself to those people. I got tired of doing this...

Getting more than I paid for...

by chebbah , Dec 14 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, decent quality
Cons: agonizingly slow, very basic , no bells and whistles
I think I have had this scanner for over two years, but I'm a little fuzzy on exactly when I got it. A friend of mine who's father owned some office got a sweet deal on a bunch of scanners through an online auction. He ended up paying like $5 bucks a...

No Wonder It Was On Sale!

by Eljoree , Feb 22 '00
Pros: Original cost makes it Inexpensive .
Cons: Slows down computer processes when in use and can be noisy.
Update, January 2002!

I recently moved to another state, which has nothing to do with how this machine works! Except that after I set up my computer and attached the scanner it did not make as much noise as it had previously?

You get what you pay for

by momtogirlz , Apr 03 '00
Pros: economical
Cons: unbelievably slow
I needed a scanner, I saw one on sale for $88 dollars so I bought it. Why I didn't take it back is beyond my own comprehension. This scanner is the slowest piece of machinery in my home. I bet my two year could recite the Preamble to the Constitution...

Cheap, so don't expect too much

by stormpoa69 , Dec 17 '00
Pros: cheap, easy to use
Cons: high resolution scans are not very good
This scanner is commonly found at Best Buys, Office Depot or other chain outlets. What is unique about this scanner is that it is a parallel port interface scanner so it is truly "Plug and Scan". You can have this scanner up and running in 10...

Great Product and Great Customer Service!

by cswank , Apr 14 '00
Pros: Very good product and at a very good price, Great customer support!
Cons: No toll-free customer service or tech support numbers
I bought a Mustek 600 III EP Plus scanner around Christmas of 1998. About five or six months after I bought the scanner it quit working. The arm of the scanner inside that actually moves and scans the image would not move and was stuck in the middle...
