    For our new digital media lab I purchased a Microtek Scanmaker 5 (already recommended here) and recently an Epson Expression 1600. I also have a Umax Powerlook III on my desk. All do reflective and transparency scanning and I'm happy with each. The Epson has a nice software interface and is remarkably quite. The Umax was really easy to set up, plug and play, with a very sophisticated interface.
