Hi David,

I had almost 6000 slides that I wanted scanned. Paying someone to do it was prohibitive. Instead I bought an Epson V700 Photo about a year and half ago.

I found it worked very well for me. Being able to scan 12 slides at one sweep was a tremendous time saver. The results were pretty good. It is more expensive than some, but there wasn't another one on the market at the time that would do the job.

It is not wireless, and only scans.

I have to set my mind to tackle endless prints now, so I cannot comment on how it works with prints.

Hi Norm

I gather you are saying you have not tried it at all on Black and white Negatives ?

Is there anyone on list who have managed to scan them ?

Thanks

Bob

Hi Ronni,

Just enquiring as to the scanning quality with this new Epson. I, like I guess many others, in the aging bracket, have 100's if not 1,000's of photos in old albums that I would like to bring back to life and digitally enhance. The problem is finding someone who has had good experience with scanning photos and good results. Would be very interested in your thoughts on this new machine as wireless for me would be the way to go.

Also to any other Wamuggers who have good scanning experiences and can make a recommendation.

Thanks,
David

Hello People,

For people interested in being able to wirelessly Print / Scan / Copy (no cables attached to computer), I recommend purchasing the above printer from Daniel Kerr (MacWizardry).

After a disastrous few days without a Multi Function Printer after my Epson RX700 died last Saturday (why does equipment decide to die on week-ends?). Daniel (of MacWizardry) pulled out all stops and went beyond the call of duty, allowing me to use his MF Printer so I could print my designed labels onto some DVD's to complete a job I had to deliver on Monday.

Daniel contracted the wholesaler (when they opened) on Monday and rushed up to pickup the NEW Epson Stylus Photo TX700W MFP Wireless Printer (that has just arrived in WA). Which I then picked up from Daniel's and after a few hours of unpacking, installing the TX700W Software & Drivers, I was back in business.

Setting it up to Connect to my Airport Wireless Network took a little longer (the instructions were a little confusing), but perseverance paid off and eventually I had TX700W connecting to my Airport Network (using Ethernet Cable connected to my Remote Airport Base Station) and I was Printing / Scanning / copying / print to Disc / .... Wirelessly ... no cables connected to my MacBook Pro!

I loved my Epson RX700, but, he only lasted 3 years and cost $699AU

The NEW Epson Stylus Photo TX700W MFP Wireless Printer only costs $299AU ...
<http://www.epson.com.au/products/multifunctional/stylusTX700W.asp>
If you look at the flash movie it says "'Carefree wireless connection' A wireless LAN module enables printer sharing among multiple users at home or in the office. An array of functions, including scanning, copying & printing can be used on a wireless network ...."

To be able to wirelessly Print / Scan / Copy on a wireless network.
Now that is TERRIFIC!

Cheers,
Ronni
