[@KeithJolley-b2b]

Thank You SO much! this was extremely helpful.

This is probably the best unboxing, demonstration and review of a product that I've ever seen. You covered everything I wanted to know quickly and informatively and I didn't get bored for a moment! Thank you :)

Awesome scanner. It is very sensitive for double feeds, so old photos that are mounted won't go through and have to be done on a flatbed scanner. It gives warnings if there is dust or dirt in it which will affect the scan. Best purchase I have made for doing photo restorations.

Very helpful!

So useful review right before my purchase. Thanks from Jeju, South Korea.

[@URTechDotCa]

Thanks for the kind words! We are still using it and it has not had a problem in the 1000+ photos we have scanned so far... almost done. Thanks for letting me know you are from South Korea. My girlfriend and I are talking about taking a vacation there. Have a great day Hyok :)

Super helpful. I really appreciate it! Thank you so much.

[@MarcusSortijas]

Thank you for these step-by-step walkthrough! Super helpful.

[@JimTaylor-fg4lj]

Very well done. One question. Upload. I want my photos on the computer only, which options do I use to accomplish this? No cloud storage. I'm assuming everything automatically goes to the cloud.

Super helpful, Thank You!

Excellent thank you!

[@URTechDotCa]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Banditten2002]

Thank you for your review, of the Epson scanner, you have convinced me that it is the Epson Scanner, and not the Canon R40 scanner, which is not recommended, as the Epson has a better quality. Thanks from Jeppe, Denmark😀😁

[@URTechDotCa]

Glad I could help and thanks for watching from Denmark (I am in Calgary, Alberta, Canada!) :)

[@JBird2ful]

EXCELLENT and extremely helpful!!! Thank you!

[@stephanebogen5411]

Great video. How do you keep only the enhanced pictures, so you don't have duplicates ?

[@MikeBollen-h2x]

Using the USB cable allows you to connect to wifi w/o using WAP which my router does not have. Make sure you have a strong wifi signal and use 2.4.

[@ZairaPesel]

Thank you. Very helpful.

Nice review except I would have liked to see the results of TIFF files. I would prefer these to avoid any JPEG compression. I think I would probably save the original and adjusted TIFF files if I were to buy this. It would be nice to be able to save both a TIFF and a jpg simultaneously; the TIFF for archiving, the jpg for rapid previews.

[@edwardrao8651]

Very clear presentation, but a little fast, so I will watch it a couple of more times.

[@rossbo5514]

Some of the 1* reviewers in Amazon complain that the rollers on their machines are scratching the original prints. In your closeups of the photo you scanned several times it looks like there is a scratch along the length of the print that shows up in the darker areas. Do you notice any scratches on other ones you scanned as compared to any you have not scanned? Thanks

[@joshymcdaniel9233]

That’s what I was coming back to see if that ever got fixed 😢

[@NiCaNaMex]

June 2024, I want to make sure everyone knows if you're using Windows 11, I did not find a link to download software on the website at this point. It just says to connect the scanner to the same Wi-Fi/internet and it will automatically download the drivers.

[@andybigchief]

Can I put the photos to a pen drive

[@CreachterZ]

You may well regret not saving the original as opposed to the “enhanced” as technology advances. Do like museums do. Save the highest quality image in its natural state. Save the basic image and use the enhancements available down the road.

[@karagi101]

There’s a check box to automatically save both the with and without enhancement versions of all scans after you check the box once.

Was this video made in 2005? A 14MB image isn't "gigantic", what a silly statement. A $7 32GB USB thumb drive can hold 2285 photos. A 20MP photo using lossless jpeg compression will be 30MB. Talk about being overly dramatic. Sheesh.

[@paddy9609]

I think you are overly dramatic here^^

[@JR-lx8nn]

Sorry ... unboxing is a total waste of time and so high school. Cannot finish the video as you are wasting my time.

[@URTechDotCa]

Some people find the unboxing useful and it only consumes a small part of the video. Also the video is segmented so you can easily skip parts are not interest in

[@thomasanderson5929]

How does the scanner handle photos with rounded corners? Does it keep the corners intact or does it crop the image a little to not have any rounded corners?

[@ZairaPesel]

Thank you. Very helpful.
