Overtaxed by its features

Pros Inexpensive, acceptable scan quality and speed on paper objects
Cons Insufficient image quality for scanning negatives, awful software, unreliable
Recommended it? No

I bought this product with high hopes, but it's seriously damaged my faith in HP's imaging products.  It was a letdown both of hardware and software, and is worse than my excellent experience with the printer would've led me to hope for.

I bought this scanner primarily to scan... Read full review »

I was able to by HP ScanJeg G4010 for under $100 including shipping from a well known mail order supplier.  HP LaseJet G4010 replace an Epson scanner whose software was constantly encountering conflicts with something on my WinXP-pro SR3 machine.

I purchased HP to help in my efforts to make... Read full review »

Cons Nothing I've found so far.
Recommended it? Yes

For years now, I've sat in my home office looking at a huge crate full of 35mm pictures and negatives, thinking "one day I'll scan that lot in".
Long story short - I got a new scanner at work - the Epson V4490 which is essentially the V500 but with a regular bulb (I'll explain later). I did a... Read full review »

Marvelous Multipurpose Scanner

bymgbland May 7, 2008
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Lots of different settings. Slide scanning looked sharp and clear.
Cons Learning curve for Beginner. No printed manual. $250 is higher than others in its class.
Recommended it? Yes

When I inherited my father's slide collection, I got serious about getting a scanner.

This is the first scanner I've purchased. In fact, this is the first scanner I've used!

I have looked at several scanners and narrowed it down to an HP G4050, Epson V500, and the Canoscan... Read full review »
