This goes out to all the people scanning documents and maintaining
archives.
I just got in a large lot of PixelCraft Pro Imager 8100 and 8200 large
format (11x17) scanners.
These are refurbished units in their original crate, ready for shipping.
The only downside: no software. At least none that I've been able to find
so far, though I've been told by a former developer of driver and
application software for them that the programs QuickScan or ColorAccess
should work with these scanners, with (he believes) ColorAccess being
bundled with the driver.
I found a Japanese download site that seems to have ColorAccess v1.2, but
damned if I can figure out what's going on:

If someone knows where to find these programs then please let me know.
Here's a quick review:

Here is a "shoot-out" that a manufacturer did to compare color scanning
performance of various scanners, including an 8200 model:

Here are photos I took:

Note: these were about $12,000 new.
I'd like $50 each. Shipping will probably be about $100. They are
already on crates, so shipping will be by freight.
Please contact me directly if you can use one. Soon. ;)
P.S. I'll be at VCF East 4.0 next week!
