well, I've decided it's really time for a new scanner, all I've got right now is a Lexmark X73 Printer / Scanner (which has some kind of problem, since I get colored stripes along some part of each of my scans about 90% of the time no matter what I do - plus the scan quality is not sharp and not great quality. Ugh! not gonna be getting another all in one.. ) and it is really not much use to me for doing real work because of the lack of quality. needing something new worked out well for timing, since my dad is getting a new computer system and wanted to get a good scanner along with it. we checked out pricing and specs, and found that we could get the Epson Perfection PHOTO 1250 for about $120 (cdn) which had the features we were looking for (especially the ability to do tranparency scans for slides) and a low enough price tag. just wondering if anybody has used the 1250 or knows much about it? is it at least a fairly good scanner? have you had any problems with it? also, with the transparency adapter am I going to be able to scan negatives and film strips? If all goes as planned, I'll be getting the scanner tomorrow.
