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.

The comes with some excellent software that makes the scanning from whatever format just a matter of a few clicks, also included is PhotoSmart Premium that gives you control over the images once scanned, while the two work together they can be used...

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.

HP Scanjet G4010 Photo Scanner (3.5 mice)

HP Scanjet G4010

It scans as any scanner should. No better no worse The preview scanned view manipulation software is much imporved over my previous scanner, but not terribly intuitive

Once you have scanned your item, you can see a preview, but then you have to click again to edit/crop and the scanner makes little effort to determine the size of the image - so if you are scanning a normal size photo, you always have to crop it to get...
