"Great Scanner however a stain inside the glass is not good"
Pros: makes great scans including the film scanner although it still depends on how good the films are
Cons: A whitish stain inside the glass is bothersome(cannot be seen without the scanning lamp on)
Summary: WARNING TO ALL USER AND WOULD BE BUYERS I bought Epson 2580 here in the Philippines LAst July 2,2005. I noticed immediately since I put the scanner on the space above my computertable a whitish stain inside the glass when the scanner lamp is on.It seems like a moisture or oil that comes from the PCB that that you can see inside the scanner, the PCB is screwed on the black plastic holding the lamp I thought it is just moisture since it's raining and cold and would vanish after after the scanner heats up . I scanned 30 times but the stain remained and can be clearly seen if you scan a Picture with dark colors specially when the color correction is turned on. I suggest that you scan a black A4 size paper to see this.The stain is near the lid it is a long whitish stain or whatever you call it directly above the green PCB that you can see inside the glass. This stain cannot be clearly seen without the scanninglamp on.I exchage this for another 2580 scanner twice however both also have that whitish stain. So they decided to give me a refund. If the three scanner have those same stain inside the glass there is a probability it would appear on other scanners as well. A good buy if the one you bought has no whitish stain.
