I have used the domestic-grade Epson printers for years at home and love the print quality.  The scanner that is built into the models that I have used most recently (Epson SX235W &  XP-245) is also really good in my opinion.

The earlier model (SX235W) came with a brilliant bundled program 'Epson Scan' which I have found really easy to use and which produces great results.  I have scanned books with it - relatively easily.  When this scanner became unreliable I bought the XP-245 which comes with an updated version, 'Epson Scan 2.'  This is a dogs dinner in comparison - the learning curve was much steeper and it is much less flexible and easy to use.  I approached Epson about this but they don't seem that interested.

I was wondering if I am the only one to think this way?  I have the excellent 'VueScan' software which has saved the day but even that I find not as flexible as the original Epson Scan.  If I had the skills, I'd hack the original Epson Scan to work with my newer printer - can't be that difficult to do this, and I even told Epson so.  But I don't...
