Hi folks,

Epson Perfection 3490 Photo scanner
AMD64 Athlon 3000+ socket 939
RAM 1G dual channel
WindowsXP

I recently purchased the captioned scanner. I ran the supplied software "Epson Scan" scanning text documents. However I found that the scanning speed is quite slow, taking at least 15 sec to scan a A4 text document, without graphic, with a resolution at 150dpi. This speed is same as my old Alfa Scan bought at least more than 6 years. Is there any solution to speed up the scanning speed? TIA.

Besides it scans twice on "Full Auto Mode" excluding preview. Is it normal? Tks

B.R.

My Xerox Documate 510 takes 15 seconds in flatbed mode and 9 seconds using the automatic ducument feeder.
