Pros: Easy to install and use.
Cons: Price competition should be the determining factor.

AGFA is a venerable name in the photography business. Now they are producing consumer products for the digital age and their quality and experience shows. AGFA’s SnapScan , a satisfactory, low cost, flatbed scanner for the home user or SOHO. Scanners...

Pros: inexpensive
Cons: poorly rated, incooperative

So I suppose my fellow consumers would wish to read about the quality of completed scan jobs or perhaps what level of ease this product was installed and used at. Or perhaps we should ask the more important question: is the hunk of garbage good for...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Not compatible with win 2000. Died 9 months after purchase. Too many error messages

November of last year (2000) I bought a snapscan 1212p. Here in Canada it was 160.00 not the cheapest I could have bought, hardly highend either. I knew this going in. The first week I was more than happy with it.

The honeymoon ended. ...

Pros: Ease of connection
Cons: won't scan-can't use this machine at all. It is useless!

I ordered this scanner through an advertisement that AOL put on my screen upon start up one day in August. Since it was featured by AOL I assumed that it would be a pretty good product.

It didn't take very long for the scanner to arrive. I...

Pros: Lightweight, easy setup, decent scan time
Cons: Cable cord is quite short

Well, for a scanner that costs less than a hundred dollars, I figured I would give it a shot. Agfa is a good product overall, so I assumed this scanner would be decent quality. Thankfully, I haven't been disappointed yet.

When I first got...

Pros: good images
Cons: tempermental, hard to figure out.

I got this scanner because AOL was offering it cheap with a rebate, and I had been wanting a scanner. So I bought it, thinking, so the resolution is low, I can fix the pictures later.
Well here's a problem- I can't scan anything!
The first day...

Pros: Great scans. Easy to use.
Cons: Agfa support?

I have three scanners, a HP 5300 and a Microtek E3, and the SnapScan will make the best scans of them all. The SnapScan easily has sharper detail, has better gamma and more contrast than the others. Using a dollar bill as a test the SnapScan detail was...

Pros: none?
Cons: bad customer support, many software conflicts

I received this as a gift and spent too much money on direct calls to customer service. I had difficult setting up the scanner. After spending a month with customer service to no avail I was forced to return the product. Thirty days have gone by and I am...

Pros: Good quality scans
Cons: SLOW!! no one touch buttons, weak software, parallel

This scanner was only $69 after a $20 rebate. But as always, the lower the price, lower the satisfaction for imaging hardware, or at least, this scanner proves it.

This scanner took about 15 min to scan an 8.5"x11" color image. It...

Pros: Image quality (color, pixels), price/value
Cons: Speed, included software.

As a beta tester for this product, I was quite surprised by the quality of the image that came out of this scanner. Although it is quite slow (on higher resolution scans), the most important feature of the scanner, which is quality, remains number 1....

Pros: inexpensive, easy of use,
Cons: kinda of bulky,

I have had my snapscan 1212p for over 3 years now and i haven't had a single problem with it.
I've use my scanner for a number of projects, i scanned pages of books, photos, even my hand (just for fun).

PRO's:
the...

Pros: quality scans
Cons: a little slow

I just recently won the Agfa Snapscan 1212p on an auction from egghead.com. I got it for around $40 and for the scan res. of 600x1200dpi I thought it was a good value for the price. I have been using it to re-scan some photographs that I had not been...

Pros: excellent quality, very quiet operation
Cons: hit and miss tech. assistance

When home for Christmas, I decided to buy a scanner in the US since the prices can be lower than half of what I would pay here in Poland(agfa1212p
list 780PLN or about $195.00) I found the 1212p in a discount type store for $69.00 w/out rebate, and...

Pros: inexpensive; good quality imaging
Cons: slow; has to be on when first turning on PC

We really didn't need a scanner- kind of just wanted one. You know: had to have another toy to play with on the computer.
We found this one at Costco for $65. We figured we'd give it a whirl.
Installing the software was easy, but we couldn't...
