Customer Reviews of Umax Astra 1220U USB Color Flatbed Scanner
Do Not Buy I'm not sure where the product has come, but I own a UMAX 1220S scanner and was absolutely apalled (to coin an old term) to find that I could not download an appropriate driver for WinXP to run it. If it weighed a few pounds more, I could at least use it for a boat anchor! <

>I don't have the heart to try and peddle it to the next sucker. So chalk this up to the "shame on me" category for making the purchase. I echo the sentiment of other reviewers. DO NOT BUY.. and send a message. I've been in the computing industry for nearly 20 years, and this is the FIRST review that I've felt compelled to submit. Shame on UMAX. I hope the owners have made their keep and can live with their decisions.
Old scanner. Still going after all these years.
I inherited this scanner from my father a few years ago when I was in college. At the time I had a Dell running Windows 98. Then I upgraded my system and am now running Windows XP Pro. The original driver didn't work, although XP had a generic driver that would let the scanner work with limited options.
All I did was search for "umax 1220u driver" on Google and I was easily able to find sites offering the Umax driver that will work with Windows XP, for free.
The scanner and the VistaMax software it comes with still work great! Sure it's not as fancy or small as newer scanners on the market but it does what I need it to do and it was extremely inexpensive. Free!
Worst company ever for support
You cannot download drivers from your website. Instead they want to force you to buy a CD of their drivers.
Never never never buy from UMAX. Send them a signal lound and clear. Their company is paid for by the customer. They need to get the message that the customer does not serve their needs! They serve the needs of the customer.
