A Simple Review About The Mustek Plug-n-Scan 1200 III EP !

by sweetsue_98 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jun 03 '01
Pros: Have proved to be an excellent multi-functional piece of hardware.
Cons: None, after two years
Two years ago when I bought my previous computer, I decided to live on the edge of technology, and get a scanner. Although scanners have become almost as essential an item as a printer, two years ago, I thought it was a pretty big purchase. Also, prices...

Slow And Steady...

by gym-378 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 25 '00
Pros: High resolution scans for a great price
Cons: slow
While it's certainly not the best purchase I have ever made, the Mustek 1200 IIIEP is also far from being the worst. I purchased this scanner a little over a year ago at our local computer superstore because I needed something that was relatively...

The Scanner With An Attitude!

by Kristenlov , Mar 07 '00
Pros: Price.
Cons: Flimsy top, poor scan quality
I wanted a scanner so I could share pictures with my friends online. Unfortunately, I got impatient and ended up buying the first one I found that wasn't $300. Now I wish I had waited and bought a better quality scanner even if it meant spending more...

Not a very good scanner!!!

by Cleavenger , Jan 10 '00
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Very slow to scan
I wanted a scanner that I could use to scan pictures onto my web page and to send through e-mail to my family. I bought this one because it was the cheapest one that had a little better scanning resolution than the regular low-end scanners. Well, you...

Not Your Best Buy

by xeroid , Feb 25 '00
Pros: Setup
Cons: Everything else
The Mustek 1200 III is not your average scanner. In fact, it is below average.

The scanner is of average size for scanners. It features a parallel connection. This means that it connects to the printer port on your computer, the printer then...

Get What You Pay For

by kbowen12 , Jan 13 '00
Pros: easy to use, good quality, inexpensive
Cons: not as good as more expensive scanners
I have seen many bad reviews of this scanner, but how much did those people invest into it? Not much, I can tell you that. I bought mine at a discount store, and it was the cheapest one I had seen. I didn't need a great quality scanner, so I didn't...

Bells and whistles instead of real substance

by iann , Nov 20 '99
Pros: Good scanner
Cons: Bad drivers and software
I wanted a scanner to do two things: scan stuff for web pages; and occasionally send faxes. I settled on the Mustek 1200 III EP. In hindsight a little more research would have let me get a better scanner for the task.

This Mustek is a...

Poor Quality

by gadget_guru , Jan 11 '00
Pros: Software automatically detects when the cover is opened.
Cons: Poor quality, poor color reproduction and very slow
For the Christmas, I wanted to buy myself a present - a scanner - so did some research and came up with three recommendation. Two of them were more than $100 and Mustek Plug-n-scan was the one below $100 limit. I did not want to spend too much money,...

Mustek Scanner Excellent Buy

by BScaminaci , Dec 20 '99
Pros: ease of use, price, graphic quality
Cons: text bridge does not work well. Need to use another OCR software.
I purchased the Mustek Scanner for my children's use at home. The first thing I noticed other than the price that I paid, which was affordable for any computer user, the quality of the scanner was excellent. The software that was supplied was easy to...

Quiet operation, but, has shortcomings

by customcorner , Jan 26 '00
Pros: quiet, easy to use
Cons: Not the best quality (don't even try)
We bought ours for use in our office. Originally, we had hoped to do a lot of scanning, however, we have had problems with the quality of the scanned image when we needed the "best"... For general purpose, like images for a web page (condensed,...

Pretty good, but not the best

by josemicT , Jul 16 '00
Pros: Cheap price and good image software
Cons: drivers are a bit of a hassle once they act up
I was deprived from the ever so lovely scanning technology for four years. Then finally I went out to purchase one without the proper knowledge of which features that I needed/wanted. So I shopped around and b.sed with lots of sales people about the...

The Hyundai of Scanners

by bioluminescent , Apr 09 '00
Pros: Decent performance for such a cheap unit
Cons: Fragile construction, inadequate FAQ on support site
My Cheap Scanner Revelation:

A few yard-sale-hopping Saturdays ago, I happened across one of those infamous Mustek scanners, a 1200 III EP, which sported the astronomical price tag of five dollars. It appeared virtually new, but I figured it...

Pros: rebate
Cons: poor quality,$$$,sloooow
I have been using this particular Flatbed scanner for a year now and the speed is almost enough to make you want to throw this thing in the trash.
Then there is the quality of the scans!! Terrible, I know for the price you get what you pay for but...

Don't waste your time!

by honey0602 , Feb 01 '00
Pros: It's a scanner
Cons: a slow scanner
Ok, so I was a puter idiot. When I first went shopping for a scanner I thought "oh my, what did I get into". So, what I did was take my sister the "hacker" with me. I could shoot her! There we are six stores later she says, here is...

Not impressed

by morefun , Jan 11 '00
Pros: none
Cons: Did not hold up like expected.
I bought one of these, everything on the box sounded good. I got it installed, I have used it a total of 6 times. It no longer works. I have tried removing it and re adding the scanner to the computer. I have called Mustek and got no where. I have...
