Other than that, only ebay and the more expensive options in USD. It's the difference between buying it right now, or wait many months saving for the 8100.Īnd yes, that 7600i is the only Plustek available locally. Keep in mind that 7600i is a world of difference cheaper. In case you need more info, it's safe to say:ħ600i equals to actual 3250 dpi (real, tested).Īnd for reference, a Coolscan 9000 is about 3900 - 4000 dpi. Is the difference in quality enough to justify the 8100? Would you risk re-buying the 7600i from that guy, since he has proof it works? Long story short, the 8100 is better, but considerably more expensive (by miles). I have the option of buying it again, or buying a 8100 from ebay. Hard to be sure, but yeah, let's assume it works. We both concluded the sensor was having a hard time moving up and down (making loud mechanical noises).īesides if it's on the edge of its lifespam or not (who knows right?), let's just say it works, at least for now.

He sent me videos showing it works, and even a scanned file (from a negative I provided him myself).įirst, how can it appear to be defective on my pc, and work just fine at his home?īTW, my attempt was with Windows 7 and Silverfast 9.

So I got my money back, and the seller tested again his scanner, and surprise, it works fine on his laptop! I returned to the seller, who was surprised, claiming the scanner was fine last time he checked.

As I told in my previous thread, I bought a Plustek 7600i and it came "defective", making a ton of noise while trying to move the sensor and creating a messed up file in the process.
