We looked at them, but decided they were a quick fix/short-term solution.
We ended up buying new digital mf reader/printers and were surprised by
the low cost.  We now have 2 new ones and another on order.  Let me know
if you want more info.

Hello Colleagues:

 Has anyone used ScreenScan, a microfilm scanner that can be mounted on
most reader/printers in order to transform mf into digital images for
sending or storing.  I haven't been able to find any reviews or
commentary about this product, only what they say about themselves.  I
would appreciate any comments or opinions about how the product works, its
cost and its effectiveness.

My thanks in advance.   Jane Devine

I too would be very interested in this information, as our reader
printers are getting very old.
