With extraordinarily-high image quality from 2400 dpi resolution, a 3.8 D-max rating, and 48-bit color, the Epson Expression 10000XL Photo Scanner offers everything professional photographers and graphic artists require for high-quality, large-volume scanning.
A reliable performer (rated to 100,000 cycles) that's sure to increase productivity, this hardworking scanner features Epson's exclusive ColorTrue II Imaging System, which combines superior image processing, a Xenon lamp, and Epson MatrixCCD technology for enhanced colors and pinpoint registration. Its 3.8 Dmax delivers a broad dynamic range with excellent shadow detail. And an AutoFocus optics system, when activated, adjusts the focus and captures clear, precise images every time.
The 10000XL's batch scanning function increases productivity by allowing you to make multiple scanned images at once and saving files to a PC (48 35mm negatives, 30 35mm slides, 8 4x5" transparencies, or 6 medium-format transparencies). It is quick, too, scanning an 8.5 x 11" color image at 300 dpi in just under 23 seconds.
The Epson Expression 10000XL scans virtually anything, including reflective media up to 12.2" x 17.2" and transparencies up to 12.2" x 16.5". It also includes both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) connectivity for most Windows and Macintosh systems. There's also an optional network card.

I'm still learning the SilverFast software but the scans are fast and good, compared to my ancient, expensive Linotype-Hell scanners.
I can use either USB or firewire connections, and the large scanning area is essential for oversize originals or ganging up groups of smaller images.

I've used a 1640XL for years. It is having problems and I decided to upgrade to the 10000XL. I found 2 main problems with this scanner.
The first has to do with the quality of the scan. The 10000XL introduces some darkening that is apparent in the white areas of the scanned image. I don't know how to say this better. It looks like there is a dirty film on the glass, but there isn't.
The second has to do with the obstacles the engineers put on top of the scanner to make scanning oversized images harder to scan in multiple sections. There is a post sticking up a few inches in the rear. There is also a raised edge on the right and rear sides of the glass.
When I got the first scanner in, I thought I simply had a defective item - it happens. B&H is wonderful about returns, so that was really not a big deal.
The second had the identical problem and I spent quite some time with the folks at Epson on the phone going over it.
I do fine art reproduction, so this is a problem for me. If I were scanning office documents, it wouldn't be such a big deal, but then I wouldn't have spent this much for a scanner.
If I explained this poorly, that does not mean there is not a problem. I have an all Epson shop, so this is very upsetting. I don't have another replacement for my 1640XL.

Comments about Epson Expression 10000XL Photo Scanner:
The Epson producrs seems to be most best within the parapson 10000 has the best ourlined mesurements for the originals, which none of the other scanners have. At the same time the resolution it has did not satisfy the results I received. Besides it is too heavy to accompany the traveling researcher. I would suggest the Scanner Epson Perfection 750 Pro to modify that it would serve much better if it would have one longer side completely flat like it was made in the scanner Canon Lide 700F. After all it would be possible the originals sized 11,3" by 17"3 scan partially using Epson Perfection 750 and than "glue" the pieces in one as the original is. I personaly consider all products Epson as best quality made but the scanner must be useful for the larger originals bigger that A4.

Very fast scanning, especially on 1200 dpi scans that with other scanner would take 3xs as long to scan. The clarity and quality is superb! Def. worth the $$.

Comments about Epson Expression 10000XL Photo Scanner:
We are a quality orientated business that must accurately reproduce photographs for restoration or digitize films of various sizes.
I chose the Expression 10000XL Photo Scanner because of the fine reputation that Epson maintains and the large scan area and high resolution capabilities.
The Silverfast software does an excellent job of profiling for reflectance as well as transparency. The scans are sharp and accurately reproduce the original colors. The software has some very in depth functions which may be difficult for some users to master. In most cases, we found pleasing results with only minimum deviations from the default settings.

Scanner is used as part of my digital media company to convert old photos into slideshows for customers.
Old photos are cleaned up and look great.
Newer photos look as if they were right out of a digital camera!

Comments about Epson Expression 10000XL Photo Scanner:
I find that this scanner has so far exceeded my expectations. The software was easy to load up without any problems. So far I have only used it to scan my old high school year books as my learning curve project and found it very easy to use. I love the capability to scan an entire page and then will make preselected individual scans within the large scan. I cannot wait to begin scanning the many photograph negatives my family has accumulated over the years.
So far I have not discovered anything I dont like about this scanner other than the list price, however purchasing it the discount B&H price made this scanner affordable.
