Difficult Installation
2009-06-13I have just installed this scanner so I cannot comment on its long term effectiveness but the installation process was hellacious, probably the most difficult peripheral I have had to install in a considerable length of time.
There is an inordinate amount of voodoo science with the product. It doesn't work with a surge protector, only if plugged directly into an outlet (I don't know if a simple power strip works); I have never encountered such a restriction before. There is a very precise sequence required in connecting the scanner to the computer, and in powering down if a restart is required. Finally the software as shipped (I'm using Mac OS X) simply doesn't work. One has to download software from the HP site. It's one thing to have to upgrade a provided version, its something else when the provided software just doesn't work. I'm hoping the rest of the experience with the scanner is better than that initially.

2009-05-12after much reshearch we decided to got with the HP Scan Jet 5590 I am very satisified with this product I would recommend it.

Works Great; No Problems
2009-04-07I admit I was a little concerned when I read the negative reviews about this scanner. My old scanner (not HP) died unexpectedly and I wanted a document feeder on the replacement. This scanner is excellent--it was very easy to install. It gives me no trouble at all, and it was a good bargain too!

don't buy!!!
2009-02-04This product is a piece of junk! it will not work with windows xp. if you possibly get by the error messages, your paper will jam in the feeder. I even tried tech group for help. They could not even help. Called vendor realtions to get a refund, no luck there either. I might as well flush my money down the toilet!

Worked great for 5 months - then died!
2008-12-09This scanner worked perfectly for the first 5 months. I probably scanned 3000 pages of stuff. Then all of a sudden I could not "initialize scanner". I use it with my MacBook Pro. The scanner shows up in my "About This Mac", just not in the HP software anymore. After navigating HP's voicemail jail for almost an hour, I gave up. Its almost like they want to prevent you from speaking with a real support person! I am ordering the Fujitsu Snapscan. It comes very highly recommended.

The VHS format is the oldest type of camcorder. This type of video camcorder

and are much more bulky, that dv camcorders. You can only find these video
camera used because their technology is now outdated.
VHS-C
The VHS-C format offer 240 lines of resolution, just like VHS. These analog
camcorders come in a smaller size that the VHS camcorder models, but use
the same technology. The video tapes u ...
