- Thank you shamoo for the light tube suggestion you put me on the right track and now both the scanner and the printer are working perfect. I could see the little tube light was coming on and seemed to be normal. checking it with a volt meter revealed my power supply was bad resulting with not enough power to light the tube up enough to read what was on the scanner bed.

Installed the software from the Umax CD, connected and switched on to run the scanner test but reports "Link fail" - tried to update driver thinking that was perhaps the issue. to no avail. Seems it's a common problem. I'm using USB to connect and run through a 4-way hub.

My Umax Astra 1220U Flatbed Scanner will scan but the image comes out with a dark "haze" so as to barely read the document. What I am scanning is on white paper with black lettering. Can you help?
I'm running OS X 10.5.6.
Do you know of a site to install this driver. Free hopefully.
