I happen to connect the Miraco Pro to the PC and use the revoscan software, the distance in near mode stops at 120 - 300 while with the Miraco the distance is 100 - 300 no problem for the far distance, another issue when I activate the color mode with the PC it is not possible to select 4K or 8K

regards

No it is not possible to scan using 4-8 K  
You need to do it direct on Miraco and import the project.

The scanning via PC is not a standard feature but a bonus.  
There is not quality difference and you should avoid to scan via PC to save your USB port and MIRACO’s battery life if possible.

This indication which is a “bonus” where it is described, when I connect the Miraco to the PC the display says that it is possible to use the Miraco in PC mode but it does not specify WITH LIMITATIONS.

The update for MIRACO to use with 4-8K in a single shot mode is still new, the software may catch up later on it .
