I've always wondered if multiples passes scanning is an advantage for 
scanners likes the Epson 3200, which I own. Is the hardware good 
enough that there is no registration problem and all scans will align 
perfectly ?

Would not single-pass multi-scanning be better and is Vuewscan or 
other scanning software offering it for the Epson 3200 ?
Cheers,
Andre
