https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Desktop-Inkjet-Printers/Looking-for-Pixma-plus-35mm-slide-scanning/m-p/147621#M39465 <P>Hello.<BR /><BR />I used to have a Canon Pixma printer with a 35mm scanning facility built in to the lid. Broke down some time ago, unfortunately.<BR /><BR />And now Canon don't do Pixma printers with 35mm scanning.<BR /><BR />Been scouring the internet for an MG8250 or equivalent, with no luck.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I don't WANT to change from Pixma. I think it's possibly the best colour print system you can buy, but I do need that 35mm slide scanning facility, so any suggestions as to an alternative product, i.e. a good quality colour printer (plus copier plus flatbed scanner plus 35mm slide scanner), offering similar print quality as the Pixma?<BR /><BR />I suppose one alternative is to buy a stand-alone 35mm neg scanner, but I also have a number of ancient (1890s) large b&amp;w negatives so a 35mm-only carrier wouldn't do - I need something where I can use bits of tape etc. to hold odd-sized films.<BR /><BR />Thanks for reading, and I hope someone has a suggestion or two.<BR /><BR /><BR />Allen.</P> Fri, 31 Jul 2015 14:15:00 GMT allen-uk 2015-07-31T14:15:00Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Desktop-Inkjet-Printers/Looking-for-Pixma-plus-35mm-slide-scanning/m-p/147621#M39465 <P>Hello.<BR /><BR />I used to have a Canon Pixma printer with a 35mm scanning facility built in to the lid.
