Rating: - Great Book Scanner
I have a small publishing operation (Norton Creek Press) that brings great-but-forgotten books back into print. Sometimes this involves scanning in rare or collectible books that would be damaged if I opened them all the way to make them lie flat on an ordinary scanner. The Plustek Opticbook 3600 lets me scan such books without damaging them.
I've used it hard for a couple of weeks, and I've been very happy with it. The Abbyy software that comes with the scanner is much better than ... Read More

I purchased a Opticbook 3600 plus. Works "ok" with XP, but the drivers will not initialize on my Vista laptop. I even took the scanner and laptop into a computer shop and they tried to get it to run on a newly installed Vista system with ZERO success. Calls to the service center go unreturned, and email is not answered. I find it hard to believe Plustek cannot get their scanner to work on Vista, or find a service center in the US that knows the meaning of SERVICE !!

I liked this scanner so much that I bought a second one. (Note: I did not buy the "Plus" version, which only adds the ability to save directly to PDF.

I'm not sure if the direct-to-PDF feature is worth the extra $30 or $40; it may be if it generates higher quality PDFs with smaller file sizes.) I've had both for more than three years. I've installed them ... Read More
Rating: - Great Scanner, Lousy Software
For books, this scanner is awesome - faster than my Epson and my Canon all-in-one. On the other hand, the Epson works much better on photos, and the Canon is best for quick scan to email or to make copies. Mine came with Vista drivers, no problem there.
The software, however, is another story. "It sucks" is being kind. One of the programs wouldn't even install (I tried on both my XP and Vista machines)and another crashes every hundred pages or so - no help on the website for the software ... Read More
Rating: - Perfect in the beginning, Nightmare in the end.
I was a big fan of this scanner until recently.
Opticbook scans books fast without damaging spines.
I used it very carefully.
I used another scanner of mine for non-book materials, because I didn't want to waste the lamp life.
The result? The lamp died after around 200 scans!
I used it intermittently, so I was out of warranty when the lamp died.
I've used scanners of several manufacturers, and this is the first time that a scanner lamp died on me.
In sum, $300 for ... Read More
