It delivered absolutely perfect reproduction, with precise cropping, too. Not only were the results stunning, they appeared perfect, with no hotspots, off colors, or degradation of sharpness. Operating with only USB-1 on my machine, the 2400 Photo scanned each slide in 54 seconds, which I considered to be quite acceptable. What he thought those check marks meant can only be imagined and testifies that some people are best left in a locked room with no sharp objects for their own safety. Quite to the contrary, a check box adjacent to each thumbnail permits any of them to be unselected. NOTE: One reviewer is ENTIRELY mistaken when he incorrectly stated that all four slides must be scanned. It seemed too easy, but in only 42 seconds, the scanner automatically recognized the color positives, lit the TPU lamp, pre-scanned all four slides, and left thumbnails before me to select from. With another very slick demonstration of engineering wizardry, negative filmstrips slide smoothly and effortlessly into the other side of the frame, and are positioned precisely and uniformly above the glass with no bends. I was absolutely impressed with the design and efficiency thus far! The slides simply drop within their frame onto the glass and are retrieved effortlessly. It holds 4 slides or a strip of up to 6 negatives. This combination of engineering elegance illustrates a sufficiency few engineers seem to grasp. The beautifully designed slide/negative holder lies on the glass, indexing precisely. Removal of the laminated lid-liner exposes the TPU light. I got this scanner to handle my collection of slides, so that was a very important feature for me. I placed 6 photos on the glass, leaving room between them, and the TWAIN identified and segregated each into its own file perfectly. I kept grabbing for the mouse, expecting to be called to do something, but everything was automated. The buttons on the front worked well, sending respective scans to printer, e-mail and web. With that completed, I followed instructions in the automated Epson TWAIN 5 and quickly got a perfect photo scan 300 DPI. Most problems associated with scanner setups trace back to a failure to read and follow instructions, so I used care to read through everything before beginning! The setup of this solidly constructed scanner onto my Windows 2000 went without a hitch.
