HP Scanjet 4370 Photo Scanner (L1970A#B1H) Review

My experience with this scanner didn't start out well, because I got a bad install disk which caused installation to fail. HP customer service was very helpful, though, and listed all my options...they don't have the download available online yet, so I would either have to wait for them to ship me one, or return the scanner...I chose the latter. My next scanner was easy to set up, and I was scanning within minutes. The quality is great, and I love scanning negatives, but I have encountered a few issues. The first is that if I press the "scan negatives/slides" button on the outside of the scanner instead of using the software to initiate, the software assumes it's a slide instead of a negative. There may be a option or preference to change that, but I haven't found it. Also, if I try to scan more than one negative or picture at a time, the scanning software crashes and closes. It's very frustrating, because then I have to reset all my settings. I've started to just scan one at a time, but I'd prefer to be able to do more than one at a time to save time. Frustrations aside, I really do like this scanner. It's pretty quick (compared to some of the old school scanners I've had), and it's quiet, and easy to select the picture dimensions from the preview screen using click and drag. The negative holder is good quality, and the lid lifts up for oversized items. I'd recommend it.

I spent three hours with HP technical support trying to make this thing work. The things they had me try were basic, like removing and then reinstalling cables, cycling power, and like. Gee why didn't I think of that?
They blamed everything else but the scanner. When I refused to reinstall the hardware yet again, HPs solution was to request I buy a more expensive HP product.
I remember when HP produced quality products. Not anymore!
