I've been using the core probe launchers for some time now and I've been wondering if the Expanded Probe Launcher can scan things faster. I'm not looking to use the combat scanner probes.

The expanded probe launcher is for when you want to use combat probes.
If you look at its properties, you'll see there's no scan strength bonus on the expanded launcher, hence it won't make your scanning any faster.

Expanded will not make any difference in scan speed, however switching to a SOE launcher will help if you are not using one since they do have a strength bonus.

Don't forget mid slot options, rigs and implants if this is a scan only character.
