I'm taking it back

by peachjam Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 25 '01
Pros: No external power source needed, good price
Cons: Poor quality, clunky interface, slow. Annoying lid switch.
Let me see, I've owned or used an Epson Sheetfed scanner, a Canon 620U, an older Mustek, an older Visioneer, this Mustek 1200 UB, and a Visioneer 6200. The Mustek would have to be on the lower end of the scale, and I'm returning it to Wal Mart from...

Ideal for casual users with a free USB port

by Marechal_Ney , Nov 21 '01
Pros: good value for money, convenient USB plug-n-play feature, includes a decent text recognition program
Cons: a fairly redundant image-editing program, requires a USB port to function
As far as scanners go, this one should more than meet the needs of users who adapt it to any non-professional application. I acquired the Mustek 1200 UB just over a year ago (costing about $45, though this is a vague estimate, since it came bundled with...

Mustek 1200 UB- For the bargain hunter...

by ritalee76 , Sep 23 '00
Pros: great scanning , low price
Cons: none that I know of
I recently spent too much money buying a new computer and I needed a scanner to go along with it. All I had left was $100. I went to Wal-Mart, Office Depot and Office Max. The range of prices was incredible. From $50 to $250!! I decided on the...

Mustek 1200 UB: Working great!

by jreighley , May 21 '00
Pros: Price. Good Image. USB
Cons: Scans a bit dark, kinda slow.
I recently decided that I would like to have a scanner. I don't have an everyday use for one, I have just needed one every once and a while and have not had one. I thought that it would be somewhat convenient to scan my financial paperwork into the...

Love It!

by gleepish , Jun 19 '00
Pros: Easy to use
Cons: None for me
First off, I know nothing about computers--well, not a whole lot anyway. I wanted to get a scanner for pictures mostly. Just so I could send the Grandparents pictures and be able to post some of them on myfamily.com so the family could sort of keep up...

Mustek better than the Visioneer??

by damcc1 , Jun 24 '00
Pros: E-mailing, Price and Quality
Cons: Poor software
I recently purchased the Mustek 1200UB. I researched the scanners and found the Mustek to be quite a good deal for the money. I had a Visioneer 7600 USB Scanner, but recently lost it in the divorce. I paid about twice as much for the Visioneer. I sure...

Budget scanner bargain?

by latakiahaze , Feb 05 '01
Pros: USB and very cheap
Cons: Slow, disappointing software, flimsy build
The Mustek 1200 UB has to be one of the best bargains around, yes it has it faults but it has little competition at this price and more importantly it does the job it claims to.

These scanners are often bundled with budget PCs or sold cheap in...

Great Bargain

by tcorey , Dec 03 '00
Pros: Great bargain, OCR software, ease of use
Cons: Photo editing software, speed
I searched for a while for a scanner and finally settled on this one when I saw it's price at Wal-Mart. For less than $60, this was the best deal I saw.

It installed easily, without any problems. I just plugged the USB cable into the back of...

The best little scanner

by belle585 , Oct 15 '00
Pros: easy to use
Cons: nothing
My husband and I went to the store to find a scanner for our computer. We didn't have much money for one but we really wanted one. The idea of scanning your pictures and sending them to family just seemed so much more affordable then buying so many...

Only for Beginners. Not for professionals.

by 200067 , Feb 23 '01
Pros: price, easy to use
Cons: average quality, slow
The rather compact body is executed from a light plastic. The cover has rounded edges and acts forwards for slightly limits of body, that it was it is possible easily to open. The cover is throwed off up and is fixed in a vertical position. The scanning...

Good basic scanner

by chdyoung , Jan 17 '03
Pros: Cheap and powered from USB port
Cons: Slow
The included software is probably worth the price of the scanner. However, most scanners probably come with similar software. 2 CDs are included. For PC users the driver CD also contains Abby Fine Reader, OCR (Optical Character Recognition)software ...

Go Mustek Go!

by alon1 , Mar 29 '03
Pros: Cheap, sturdy, USB powered, linux drivers.
Cons: Didn't come with WinXP drivers.
About a year ago, I decided to join the modern age and buy me a scanner. After hearing that HP and UMAX scanners are overpriced for the brand name, I opted for a cheaper, lesser known brand. I was not disappointed.

The scanner is USB-powered,...

This scanner is great for all kinds of projects.

by dking30 , Feb 10 '01
Pros: Easy to figure out, comes with a great program to make your own photo albums.
Cons: None that I can think of.
This is one of the best additions to my computer that I ever invested in. It is easy to use and allows you to make different size pictures, and even greeting cards with the program that comes with it.

The program is called Ulead photo express...

Mustek 1200 UB scanner

by Bloogal , Dec 26 '00
Pros: Cheap and cheerful, easy to use
Cons: Dark scans, lack of control
I got this scanner bundled with my new computer; obviously price was a consideration here - I have seen it in the shops for about £50. It's quite a nice looking, compact unit. It will hold A4 or letter size paper, as well as odd things (I use it a lot...

Very Impressed!

by lisaky , May 15 '00
Pros: Alot
Cons: None so far
I bought this scanner about a week ago and so far I have been very pleased with it. It is a real compact scanner. I was surprised at how light it was, I remember thinking as I was opening the big box UPS brought, I hope they put it in here!
