| Do I need a new scanner? |
| (1/1) |
| Falcon:
I have a Hewlett Packard PSC1200 all-in-one printer/scanner... etc. I scanned the Grand Theft Auto IV cover and need to know your thoughts. Do I need a better scanner or is this scanner good enough? My scan (300dpi with descreen) |
| jprogram:
Your scanner works perfectly fine. It's normal from not getting smoother scans from half-toned prints. It is why you would need a photo editor software, strongly recommend Photoshop, to de-speckle the image further. Otherwise, nope, you don't have to get a new scanner. |
| Mr. Huh:
I dunno. I can't see any image. But in my experience, all in one units are crap compared to real scanners. I have a HP psc 2175 all in one unit and everyone kept telling me how crappy the scans were. Are you running vista or xp though? Because in vista I could never find a descreen mode and I had no twain driver. I'm using a Canon LIDE 90 and the scans are great. |
| Falcon:
It's good to hear that my scanner is still acceptable. I never learned how to use Photoshop, but I will see if I could learn... And in case my original link didn't work, here's another link: |
| Mr. Huh:
That's better then my all in one unit. I think I just threw away the exact same model you had though. I had no adapter for it. |
