The aim of this research is to evaluate accuracy of Plate Processing Method and to perform a detailed study of the Epson Expression 10000XL scanner, which was used to digitize plates from the database collection of the 1.2 m Schmidt Telescope installed in the Baldone Observatory. Special software developed in LINUX/MIDAS/ROMAFOT environment was used for processing the scans. Results of the digitized files with grey gradations of 8- and 16-bits were compared; an estimation of the accuracy of the developed method for rectangular coordinates determination and photometry was made. Errors in the instrumental system are ±0.026 pixels and ±0.024 m  for coordinates and stellar magnitudes respectively. To evaluate the repeatability of the scanner’s astrometric and photometric errors, six consecutive scans of one plate were processed with a spatial separation of 1200 dpi. The following error estimations are obtained for stars brighter than U&lt; 13.5m: σ xy  = ±0.021 to 0.027 pixels and σ m  = ±0.014 m  to 0.016 m  for rectangular coordinates and instrumental stellar magnitudes respectively.
