  • Considering the wealth of features on board, £202 seems a paltry sum to pay for the HP ScanJet G4050. Its about half the price of the Epson Perfection V700, yet the HP certainly isnt outclassed on general performance and results. If you have a signi...

  • Abstract:  Superlative quality is let down by slow scan times and unintuitive driver software. Home scanners have shown little technical innovation over the past few years. However, HPs Scanjet G4050 has broken the mould with the first so-called six-colour scan...

  • Abstract:  Buying a dedicated scanner for home usage is not very feasible these days, considering the great deals currently available on MFDs (Multi-Function Devices, Scanners+Printers+Copiers). I agree that the quality you will get from a dedicated scanner is us...

  • Dérive colorimétrique très faible sur la mire
  • Fermeture du logiciel après chaque numérisation, Scanner trop lent, Rendu des négatifs, Couleurs orangées sur nos images de test
  • C'est un très bon scanner, offrant une dérive colorimétrique plus faible que la moyenne et de la concurrence. Cependant certains détails viennent gâcher l'optimisme du scanner : l'utilisation du logiciel et le rendu des négatifs. C'est dommage !...

  • Abstract:  HP Scanjet G4050 er en rigtig flot scanner, og håndtaget i låget gør den tilmed mest praktisk. Scanning af papirbilleder er uproblematisk, og resultatet er absolut pænt, om end med høj kontrast. Softwaren er dog tung at bruge, da den hopper tilbage i s...
