WaveHunter Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 My desktop scanner is broken and I need a high quality scan of a full color document for business reasons pretty quick. Can anyone suggest a good copy shop in Jomtien, preferably around the beach area / or near Immigration office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaveHunter Posted April 8, 2021 Author Share Posted April 8, 2021 I should add...I need this outputted as a PDF / PNG / JPG or JPEG file (on a thumbdrive); NOT a paper print out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Presumably you haven't found an app that does colour? shop on Thepprasit opposite night market probably does it, good for copying, laminating, printing etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need a better shop. I need one that can scan to a thumb drive, not just output on paper. They say they can not. ???? Any other copy shops anyone can recommend that can do high quality color scans to a thumb drive? I really didn't expect this to be so challenging considering almost any copy shop in the States can do this easily. #copyshop Edited April 9, 2021 by WaveHunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinnock Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Perhaps a computer/IT shop? If you have your own USB drive and they have a printer/scanner - will only take a minute. I'll be in Bangsaen this evening and can do it for you - but that's a bit of a distance from Jomtien. The free Abobe scan App on the Google app store does a decent job - then send it as a mail from your phone to your pc, then save? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have misunderstood me. Language barrier on phone. Happens to me all the time. But...that is the correct shop (the picture I attached from Google Maps)?

Yes the correct shop, I've used the shop for printing, I've taken a USB in there to print the docs and I've sent the docs to their Line ID. Things do get lost in translation in there, even very simple things, you think they understand, they say yes, then get mixed up. To scan a doc is pretty simple you'd think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot recommend, but there is a large 'Sign and Print' shop on Sukhumvit pretty much facing Klang. If they can scan, they can put a file on a thumb drive. https://goo.gl/maps/Rh4NiwQmgTHVx8QH9 Edited April 9, 2021 by jacko45k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as I know they can plug my USB drive in and scan my passport to it on a good flatbed scanner in color, that's all I need. I am a merchant on Amazon and they have a new identity verification rule that says I have to upload my passport to them BUT it can not be from a phone camera; it must be from a flatbed scanner! Go figure??? Thanks for the details about the shop; most appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the shop around the corner from me that the other poster described will meet my needs, but still nice to have another option. I appreciate your help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
