Product Description:
SilverFast SE Plus is a powerful solution from LaserSoft Imaging which combines the best of both worlds: high-end imaging technology for low-end scanners for a very low cost. We specially designed SilverFast SE Plus for flatbed and film scanner. Images will especially benefit from SilverFast's intelligent auto-adjust and LAB-based unsharp-masking, which does not sharpen the color noise of single channels, hence avoiding the extra noise. You get many of the marvelous highlights of the full SilverFast Ai, such as: SilverFast SE's ScanPilot guides the novice user through the optimum steps for brilliant images.

1. Stable software - have had ZERO crashes since in use.
2. Effective tools - AACO, and Print Dialogue
3. JPEG2000 support - Sending images over web now
4. Multisampling - I have to elaborate on this:
Ingeneous piece of work. This option has eliminated virtually ALL noise that I encountered before. This function turns my HP into a high quality scanner. Love this function!
Sumary:
Great, stable and effective production tool.
I highly reccomend it to anyone doing imaging.

It won't "take' the serial number, still puts a watermark on the file. Silverfast clearly knows about this problem as they have a link on their web site dealing with it.
Save your money, and your time, avoid this junky buggy software.
