I saw a report on this on TechTV and it didn't get such hot ratings.

Stan,

I bought a Canoscan FB630 and have had no problems with it, in fact for the
money/size I am quite impressed !

I am using it with the original software supplied on the C.D. it came with
on a G4/400.

I can print through to an Epson 740 with no problems and excellent results,
scanning to computer/disk is no problem either.

You might like to try downloading the latest drivers and trying again, have
a look at:

canFb630u

Have you tried using the scanner on another Macintosh or even a USB equipped
P.C. to establish where the problem really is ?

If you continue to have problems, ask the company you bought the scanner
from for assistance, after all part of what you paid them for the unit is
for after sales service support.

As a last resort, send details of your problems to:
stubbs_glenn@ca.canon.com.au


Best wishes,

M.H.
