I purchased this scanner to convert all my mom's old negatives and photos into digital files. The scanner is easy to use and I love the fact that it can scan 30 negatives at a time and it saves them each into separate files. Once the negatives are set up to scan, I can walk away and do other chores.

The Negatives to computer prints are washed out on some. may be the negatives. the photo scans are excellent. It's not a speedy scanner, but I was looking for quality and it has excellent quality scanning old photos.

I purchased this scanner because I have thousands of old photos from many generations that I wanted to be able to share with relatives. The scanner produces high quality, crisp images notated the age of the original photo. I think the setup was pretty simple too.

We have a few of these scanners at work, both this model and the previous G4000 model. All the scanners have repeatedly had the same issue where after working fine for a while, the scanner will scan a small portion of a document (maybe 25%), and then it will fail and give an error message that it...

Good quality product which does what it is supposed to and does it well.

Bottom line, do not use with the included program. It's horrible, and will cause no end of problems. With a 3rd party program like Vuescan ($40) its an entirely different scanner and can give great output. Be ready to wait though because at maximum resolution this thing is SLOW!!

Looks good; 4 buttons work quickly

Big; takes lots of deskspace; Included program is terrible!!!; SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW; Does not scan Black and white very well

we have acquired this scanner for overall scanning but because HP was boosting the suppose ability to scan 25 35mm slide at a time and 30 35mm negative. We never was able to scan a full platen at any one time except at very very low resolution (less than 300dpi).

may be good for handling any printed documentation (Photo; drawing; doc,) Easy software installation

Poor interface Learning curve very long No tweaking possibility Poor end result handling

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Accurate Color; Easy Setup; Good Resolution

Inaccurate Scans; Poor Software

What you would expect from a flatbed scanner for speed and quality at this price . I got it because it scans 4x5 negatives and I have a collection from WWII that I want to digitize .

Price; large format film ; lid stays up

Supplied software is marginal at best ; I use Vuescan which does a much better job

I replaced my canon scanner with a HP Scanjet g4050 recently. While it is the largest scanner I've owned in several years, I now need the ability to scan legal size documents, old canon was just too small for that job.
