HP Scanjet G4010 Photo Scanner (3.5 mice)
The HP Scanjet G4010 Photo Scanner is a very capable desktop scanner with an impressive list of features, such as built-in transparency scanning for slides and film and six-color scans of reflective media.
Built-in transparency unit for scanning film and slides ; six-color scanning for hard-to-scan objects
Sluggish scanning speeds ; slide scans lack detail ; clunky scanning software
The G4010 is the first scanner I know of that generates scans from more than three colors. Most scanners have one lamp to illuminate an image or object, and a three-color RGB (red, green, and blue) sensor. The G4010 also sports an RGB sensor, but if ...

Review : HP ScanJet G4010
Rarely do I look at a standalone scanner, but should you need to scan other than documents then a specialised standalone scanner comes to the fore especially for negatives and slides.
I would suggest that you will need a reasonable large number or transparencies or negatives to make the purchase of this unit viable. However the output it produced was excellent and I now am able to print some images from the past that the original ...

HP - ScanJet G4010
As the latest innovation in photo printers is to move up from four colour cartridges to six, it was perhaps inevitable that the next technological advance for photo scanners was to reflect this change. So HP ...
For probably the best quality and authenticity of photo reproduction, the ScanJet G4010's 6-colour system is going to be hard to beat. It's a shame that it's let down by an unfriendly negative holder and overly complex operating software.

Lower your expecations of HP here. (sorry, HP)
Due to the price, I lowered my expectations and bought the scanner. After getting the product, I have also lowered my expectations of HP. Their answer to slow performance is to use very low quality settings. (Grandma with bad eyes settings) Newegg is prob...
Cheap with ok usable quality. I bought this with pretty low expectations to begin with and strictly to scan old negatives and slides. The Newegg on sale plus promo for $70! I could not pass up the bargain. I installed the latest versions from the software...
To be honest, I can't get it to work anywhere close to how it's advertised and it may be sent back on sheer principle. I get passable quality and no more. The drivers/software never uses much memory, disk, or CPU resources. I have not been able to scan a...

Does the job
I settled for this over the Epson I was looking at because it saved me $150. Overall I am satisfied with it, but my only disappointment is the negative reader. It is attached to the cover and it only reads up to 35mm negatives. I have a very old negative...
