This machine is horrible. I spent hours trying to get it to work, and others in the lab that had experience also tried to help me, and use it themselves. It is grossly and bafflingly insensitive.
Even after adjusting all accessible settings etc. It could never actually get any useable data whatsoever about the side of my head. It could hardly scan object when thoroughly dusted with chalk, and is extremely slow.
It is worthless, don’t spend a penny on it.
My experience is that is not user friendly but i have some members who has mastered the thing producing some great scans.
