comments: A sweet little 8.5" x 11.7" flatbed with few if any TWAIN problems and a very quick 'seek' that's perfect for scanning smaller areas of the bed.

Scans an 8.5" x 11" page in gray at 200DPI over USB 1.1 in under 16s.
known issues: The image controls presented in the UI include Highlight, Shadow, overall and per-channel tone curves, Exposure, Gamma, Threshold, Gray Balance Intensity, Saturation, auto-Exposure, Unsharp Mask. However the settings available through TWAIN are different and more limited - see below.
