Hello,

Does anybody know where one can download the driver for UMAX ASTRA 1220S for Windows 2000?
Thank you

Thank you. I have already did, but:
After installing VistaScan (vs355su.exe) the scanner is not working : I have
a link error
If I try to install manually a driver from this download - I cannot find the
astra 1220S model (all listed model are U models, that means USB I suppose
and not a SCSI model.)
Maybe I need something more? A patch?

Sorry, I really dont know, but I would expect to also install ASPI for SCSI
scanners to work in Win2000. ASPI is the interface between the scanner
driver and the SCSI driver, and was included with Win9x, but is not included
with Win2000 or WinXP. You must install it.

ASPI is available from

I have an old Vista S6E, which is SCSI-attached and I think of the
same family as the 1200S. You might try the driver from MagicScan
(ms43drv.exe, I think). The following re using the MagicScan driver
was posted quite some time back. Perhaps it may help. As Wayne
wrote, you will need ASPI.

Umax offers no official Windows XP driver for [Vista]
scanner. However, our tests show that you can
access the scanner under Windows XP using MagicScan
Version 4.30 (4 MB) on condition that your SCSI controller
is propery setup up und recognized by the system.

Note: For a small installation (without calibration profiles) select
custom installation und check MagicScan driver only.
