I got a Fujitsu fi-7160 to digitize my family's photos. Had really high hopes for this scanner since Fujitsu seems very reliable and it has CCD sensors. I've been very disappointed with the image quality from their own software, Paperstream Capture, so I turned to VueScan.
However, there seem to be something that's fundamentally wrong with this software or the combination of the software and scanner. I get really unpredictable results, cropping some photos but not others, settings not updating when I press the buttons – then updating next time I scan, duplex only works sometimes (not set to skip blank pages)... the list of bugs goes on.
Yes, I wrote to Ed Hamrick who asked me for a bug report. Did my best to write one but never heard back. Saw an April update (VueScan 9.8.32) was supposed to address Fujitsu scanner issues but seems to only be worse for me compared to earlier.
Have tried NAPS2 and it seems to work super well so hardware should be fine.
Anyone who got Fujitsu ADF-scanners to work with VueScan?
