EXCELLENT CHEAP SCANNER!

I noticed two stars on this scanner! I have used the Visioneer 5800 USB with the Paperport software for three years and have never had a problem. It is easy to use, not only scans papers, pictures, etc., but also objects such as coins, pocket knives and the like. In terms of cost, ease of use and the quality of the copies and scans I don't see how it can be beat! I give 5 stars for everything!

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Expensive

Visioneer 5800 - error message - needs to be unlocked.

Purchased from Osgood Tool and Home Supply. The delivered box does not contain installation CD and invoice. Revain does not say "no installation CD". Received "Scanner needs to be unlocked" error message. Searched for hours and several people had the same problem. I called tech support, they no longer support this scanner. Too old. . I've had the same scanner for fifteen years and it served my needs well and I still had the installation CD. It just died and I wanted to replace it with the sameโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Obsolete

Poor help from manufacturer

I can't get email or free support. I received a Christmas present and tried to install it several times - a red X logo appears in the system tray, which means that it cannot connect. I have found that under certain conditions (AMD processor, certain USB ports, etc.) this scanner has problems installing with Windows 98 Second Edition. Why isn't that somewhere on the packaging or at least in the instructions? Also, the installation instructions I found online didn't match Adobe's Acrobatโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • No work

Great product at a great price

Bought the 5800USB from a discount store for $23. It was missing a power adapter - I called Visioneer's toll free number and they 1. were very nice and professional and 2. delivered one same day for FREE. , and I only installed PaperPort, nothing else). It worked perfectly - the 2400 x 2400 dpi resolution is way too much for my small 256MB of memory, but other than that the quality is good* and I'm very happy with the product and the price.* My old scanner (emphasis on ALT ) was a piece of junk

Pros
  • Scanner
Cons
  • Doubtful

Big Divorce!

This product does not include a power cord. After reviewing the software, I found that this scanner is so outdated that it will not work with computers running anything newer than Windows XP. Revain didn't say that. Couldn't even access the software's help section as it's very old. This purchase caused a lot of stress. Got to hell because the item was unboxed and shipped in store packaging to be thrown around with regular USPS mail. I even paid about $15 for shipping to send priority because it

Pros
  • Office electronics
Cons
  • Available in white only

Not a very good scanner, quite good

I've had this scanner for a little over 2 years. After the first year I had a problem connecting the power cord to the back of this unit. The scanner's power cord on the back was loose and the scanner could not see that the power cord was actually connected to it. I ended up having to leave the power cord plugged in for it to recognize its own power cord. I then had problems with the USB cable. The USB cable is connected directly to the back of the device and cannot be replaced. For one reasonโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Flatbed and photo scanner
Cons
  • I'll write later
