Here is a very good bit of information from UMAX for those that are interested in using there older and newer Umax scanners on macs running os x. SilverFast SE 6.0 for UMAX Scanners.... After almost 3 years they finally get out os 10 driver, probably only to be incompatible with 10.3, but still it is worth a shot instead of buying a new scanner. Here is the link to the software that costs $27.00 which is reasonable if it works for someone who is going to buy a new scanner. I have no idea how good the software, but from being a former Umax I would have liked the option. So for those who still have Umax Stuff here is a solution.... http://www.umax.com/scanners/index.jsp? cate=Scanners%3A+Scanning+Software&skunum=SFTW-62905 Read the Forward message Below for more or click the link....
