Review: Great product and superior customer service! - I’m an artist (kidsntraining.com) and was looking for a A3 flatbed scanner with a removable lid that I could afford (under $300). I needed to be able to scan my large watercolor paintings in sections and put them together again in Photoshop to produce art prints. I found the Mustek A3 2400 scanner on desertcart and purchased it. Instead of using the CD that came with it for installation, I downloaded a driver from the Mustek website that is compatible with Windows 10. However, there was a problem with it and I kept getting an error when trying to scan. I couldn’t find a solution. Finally, I called the Mustek website and talked with Richard. He had his technician email a video to show how to install the driver. Still, it didn’t work. Richard set up an appointment with me to have his technician, Sam, contact me from Taiwan and actually take control of my computer so that he could figure out what the problem was. In just a few minutes, Sam was able to get the driver installed correctly and the scanner is now working perfectly! I’m thrilled with it and also with the excellent customer service provided by Mustek’s great team of personnel who go out of their way to get it right!
Review: Broken on arrival- Don't waste your money/time - I am a technically inclined artist. I wanted a basic affordable A3 format scanner with decent resolution to make giclée reproductions of my work professionally. Upon arrival, the box was ever so slightly crunched on one corner. I opened it to find the inside manufacturer box crunched in the corresponding corner. The inside styrofoam packing material was also broken. Despite the unit's pristine appearance, I fear it was damaged internally during shipping. The manufacturing packaging is cheap and ineffective. The scanner cover wasn't secured or taped in any manner and the plastic did seem lightweight and cheap-ish. It might be OK if you buy this product in a store. I wouldn't risk it online, especially if you are on a time-crunch. I had two of my own tech support gentlemen look at it, one of which worked for Intel, the other Apple (as the Mustek online "help" center just directs you to their drivers, which haven't been updated since 2008.) Neither could get it to communicate with my Windows7 HP machine, regardless of the multiple scanning software we tried (Windows fax and scan, and VueScan two name two.) It would NOT communicate with any program. After wasting two days wrestling with the terrible Mustek sotftware we decided to return it and buy an all in one Epson WF-7510 with a protection plan that ultimately cost less. Cons: Cheapish plastic. HORRID software that looks and functions like it was coded in 1991. There are almost no online troubleshooting forums, which is weird. There are absolutely NO buttons (not even a power switch) on the unit itself. Pro: the cover EASILY comes off for book/XL scanning and the scanning bed is completely flush with itself. Lightweight, and the footprint of the device isn't much larger than the scanning bed; good if you're short on space. It's not heavy if you need to move it and store it when not in use. I'd say stick with Epson, Canson or HP for any imaging hardware.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the actual physical size of the flatbed, will it copy legal, will it print legal, will it work on mac 10.6.8**
A: I personally copy on 11x17 paper so I know it can do legal, as far as working on Mac 10.6.8 I don't see why not.

**Q: Is the scanning surface flush with the area around it?  Scanning 16x20 paintings; need the part being scanned to sit flat on the glass to be in focus.**
A: The glass is about 1/8" below the surrounding material. The glass is 16 x 12. You will not be able to keep the paintings totally flat over both the area being scanned and the remainder. But, you should be able to scan with an overlapt so that the two scans can be stitched. I have done that. If you will be routinely scanning things larger than 16 x 12, you should consider a larger scanner (I know, $$$).

**Q: Does this scanner scan photographs**
A: Yes. I routinely scan antique images at 600 or 1200 dpi.

**Q: What is the max representation (enlargement) can we do by scanning from this scanner?**
A: TWAIN Scan Area (Max.)	299 mm x 427 mm (11.8" x 16.8")
Resolution	Optical: 2400dpi x 2400dpi
Software Interpolation: 9600 dpi x 9600 dpi

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far, so good!
*by G***K on April 4, 2013*

I purchased this scanner as I have a large quantity of oversize music that needs to be scanned. In the past, I've either done this at work (a no-no, I know!) or had to scan it sideways in two passes per sheet, and stitch it together in Photoshop. (a royal pain!!). This scanner works faster than my slightly older legal sized scanner, and is 'way faster than doing it in two scans and Photoshop. My biggest quibble is with the software. It doesn't seem to be possible to directly load ONLY the drivers from the accompanying CD. I use Vuescan from Hamrick software (going on 15 years, now!) and have my own workflow. I don't want the scanner program that comes with a scanner. The software actually interferes with Vuescan's operation (and deletes each scan after a few seconds! (EVIL!) I got around this by loading the $%^& software, finding the DLLs that are needed as drivers, saving them on a USB key, and then uninstalling the software (which also removes the drivers!). THEN I could re install the scanner, and point Windows at the USB key as the source of the drivers. Anyway, other than the intrusive software, the scanner works like a champ, so far, and is certainly the best tabloid sized scanner I've found for the money!
