Popis: This paper performs to research in detail the Epson Expression 10000XL scanner for photographic astroplate archive of the Ulugh Beg Astronomical Institute (UBAI) of the Uzbekistan Academy of Sciences. For processing the astroplates, it is used special developed software in the LINUX/MIDAS/ROMAFOT. The test plate was digitized with grayscale 8 and 16 bits with various scanner resolutions. Astronomical and photometric parameters were carried out from the plate and an evaluation of the developed method accuracy for determining rectangular coordinates and photometry. The repeatability of astrometric and photometric errors of the scanner for the digitized resolutions, 6 successive scans of every plate with a spatial resolution 600, 900, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100, 2400 and 2540 dpi were processed.
