Title: FS: Microtek ArtixScan 1800f
Post by: DrewFulton on December 03, 2012, 06:31:13 am
I am selling this somewhat old but fully functional flatbed scanner.  It is perfect for scanning 4x5" or 8x10" film in the dedicated tray.  The one major problem is that it is no longer supported on Mac OS X Lion/Mountain Lion.  Drivers do not exist and are not planned.  However, on the Windows side of things, there are drivers for XP through Windows 7.  I don't know about Windows 8.

It's hard to find much info on this these days but here is a link to a review by Ken Rockwell: http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/1800f.htm

I have the scanner and all the original pieces and parts available including all the slide trays.  As I mentioned, it works great, I just can't use it on my Mac since I have updated my operation system.

Since the scanner is so large and heavy, I'd love to avoid shipping.  However, I will be driving from Ithaca, NY to Orlando, Florida on December 9-10 and would be willing to meet anyone within an hour or so of my path down either I-81/I-77 or I-95.  If you really want the scanner and aren't on that path then we can work out the shipping.
