I'm testing out a Microtek ScanMaker II-HR. It seems to be a three pass scanner and suffers from colour alignment problems. I have not found a way yet to fix this. Scans at 600dpi of four colour printed material are pretty nice – the halftone dots are scanned in nice and big. Scans from photos are fine too. (barring colour fringing from the alignment) I do want a look at the new HP. They wouldn't let me actually scan something at Comdex. Didn't want to take up disk space was the excuse, so I have no idea how good a scan it will make. The prescan looked good…
