HP Scanjet 4850 Photo Scanner (L1950A#B1H)

Amazon.com Product Description
Serious scrapbookers and small offices will find equal benefits with the HP Scanjet 4850. With non-optimized resolution of 4,800 x 9,600, 48-bit color and 256-level grayscale, every image comes out sharp and clear. The built-in adapter allows you to produce small batch scans of four slides or six negatives, making short work of archiving old treasures. For bulky items, HP designed a lid that allows clean scans from a sleek scanner--with the lid in its normal position, the scanner measures less than 4 inches tall.

The 4850 has four front-panel buttons, which give you one-touch access to copies or scanning directly to specific formats; enlargement-reduction is available onscreen in a range of 10 to 2,000 percent in increments of one percent. Compatible with both Macintosh and Windows operating systems, HP software includes features designed to improve yesterday's photos along with slides from your childhood--dust and scratch removal, color restore, brightening dark areas of a shot, and red eye removal are all included.

A Hi-Speed connection (cable included) is compatible with USB 2.0 ports and offers exceptionally fast data transfer--about 27 seconds for a single 4" x 6" photo and less than 30 seconds for a text document to Word. HP includes a one-year warranty covering parts and labor and provides free telephone support.

Can we make it any slower than that ?.......2007-03-24

I bought this item thinking that it would be a great help for me to scan negatives and slides into digital format. Oh boy, was I wrong. The scanner comes with a 450MB software+driver (why so big ???) and although it seems to work the first time, it takes forever to scan anything. The software delivered with the scanner is not user-friendly at all, slow, and doesn't help much. One example, if you want to scan a band of negatives (4 of them) it will take 25mn on my computer. I tried with HP software and Photoshop : same results.
Previously I had a $30 scanner that worked perfectly except for negatives. I thought I could upgrade with an HP model but I will now look for an other brand and model. I am so sorry about this because HP used to have much better products.

HP hasn't distributed the software yet that will let the HP Scanjet 4850 scanner work with the new Microsoft Vista operating system. The software on the CD in the box doesn't work with Vista. HP will allow you to download a bare-bones version that will let you use the scanner for very simple things only. But as of March 8th, 2007, they still haven't released the full version.

Maybe someone forgot to tell HP that Vista was under development for the last few years?

I have been trying to install the software for 5 months. No one from HP can even help. Each time I call HP I'm on the phone for at least 15 minutes & the problem still exists. I am not happy with the machine. But I am most unhappy with HP's "technical support".

HP Scanjet 4850 Photo Scanner .......2007-02-07

Scans photos and documents fairly well. Film and slide scanning dificult at best. The instructions are very poor giving only the very basic directions for use with no help in using any of the advanced functions. On line help is not much better. Would not buy another unit.

Installation quick and easy to accomplish; directions for use are clear and concise; happy with overall performance and quality.
