If you’re still using a ScanPro model with FireWire, you may soon find your scanner unable to benefit from the critical support features that keep it running efficiently. With FireWire support no longer available from e-ImageData, parts and technical assistance for these models are also unavailable. To continue working with up-to-date, high-performing tools, consider upgrading to one of e-ImageData’s ScanPro 500 Series microfilm scanners, which leverage USB 3.1 technology and other advanced improvements.
Why FireWire Support Has Ended
As part of advancing technology and industry changes, e-ImageData has discontinued support for FireWire-based ScanPro models. Additionally, Microsoft recently confirmed that Windows 11 is incompatible with FireWire technology, and support for Windows 10 Home and Pro will end in 2025. Computers using FireWire will no longer receive essential bug fixes, security updates, or Microsoft support. To read more about Microsoft’s end of support for FireWire, click here.
