Apple Color OneScanner – Model M5813 – Tested (Powers On) – Vintage SCSI Flatbed Scanner Offered here is an original Apple Color OneScanner (Model M5813), a classic early-1990s Apple flatbed scanner designed for Macintosh systems using a SCSI interface. This unit was once intended as a restoration and testing project, but due to lack of time, the project was never fully completed. I am now passing it on to another Macintosh enthusiast who has the knowledge, system, and interest to take it further. // Short history & significance Introduced in the early 1990s, the Apple Color OneScanner (Model M5813) was Apple’s first consumer-oriented color flatbed scanner.

Using a SCSI interface, the Color OneScanner became popular among designers, educators, and small studios working with early versions of Photoshop, PageMaker, and QuarkXPress. Today, it represents an important milestone in Apple’s history of bringing professional creative tools to the consumer market and is increasingly sought after by vintage Mac collectors. // Condition & cosmetic state – The scanner powers on; – The scanner lamp lights up; – Further functional testing was not possible due to missing drivers; – The plastic housing shows UV yellowing, consistent with age; – Visible signs of use, including minor scratches, dust particles, and small stains. >> Please refer to the detailed photos — they accurately represent the condition. // Testing & compatibility – Tested for power only (powers on, lamp activates); – Full operation not tested due to lack of required drivers; – Uses SCSI — compatibility depends on your Macintosh system and OS; >> Buyer must perform their own research regarding: driver availability and system compatibility. >> Installation and configuration: Knowledge of classic Mac OS, SCSI devices, and vintage driver installation is essential. // Important notice – This item is sold as-is. – Please do not bid unless you: Have experience with classic Macintosh hardware and SCSI peripherals; Or intend to use the scanner for display or collection purposes only.
