Near-professional imaging at a great price.
For years, I've been searching for an inexpensive way to scan 35mm slides. I had come to the conclusion that this doesn't exist. I've always had access to film scanners in university settings, so it's never been a big problem. I knew someday that I might need to buy my own, and that time finally... Read full review »
Epson Perfection nearly is!
I was fed up with my old HP 5200C scanjet scanner and I wanted a good quality scanner that would scan both photos and negatives. I also wanted an affordable price. I was very pleased when I came across the Epson Perfection 3170. This was the best out of a series of Epson Perfection scanners, and... Read full review »
Very good photo and negative scanner, some issues
Summary:
The Epson Perfection 3170 flatbed scanner has worked well as a photo scanner, negative scanner, and printed photo scanner. The scanning hardware is very good for a consumer device. The resolution and color gamut are top notch in its price class. I can recommend this scanner for...

Do careful google research for twain problems prior to buying
Don't want to get into all the details here but suffice it to say I have spent about 12 hours trying to get the bundled software to recognize the twain driver. Third party software vuesoft and silverfree work fine. A search of newsgroups and photo sites shows that I am not the only one with this... Read full review »
Big Hardware flaws and poor support from Epson
I made the mistake of buying another Epson product after my last support fiasco with one of their printers. First I have to admit this is a re-furb, but with a full warranty that I purchased direct from Epson. It arrived with big smudge on the underside of the scanning glass. Epson's response - a...

Great scanner, terrific value!
I just received the 3170 yesterday evening and wasted no time in setting it up and making some scans. Very easy setup and clear directions. The transformer is the type that has an AC cord that plugs into the transformer, then has a cord that connects to the scanner - nice because it doesn't have a... Read full review »
Maybe I got a lemon, but maybe not.....
I purchased this scanner at the end of June specifically to scan film. After inheriting a couple of medium format cameras I was looking for an inexpensive alternative to getting proofs made of each roll. The Epson 3170 had good reviews and it came with a MF film holder, so it was a logical choice... Read full review »
Excellent Performer - With One Qualification
Although I've used computers for many years, I waited to buy my first scanner until I started cataloguing and digitizing literally a lifetime (decades) of slides and print photos. I opted for the Epson 3170, mainly because of the glowing reviews at this website. Because my collection is split... Read full review »
Sophisticated scanner -best for bulk scanning
I got this scanner when I started a family photo archive project. The Epson 2400 was actually recommended to me first. But when I went to the store, I saw this scanner on sale right next to the 2400. I thought, "Hey, this 3170 gets a much higher resolution than the 2400. I should get better scans... Read full review »
