The HP 8270 has flaws but gets the job done

bytwofish72 Jan 18, 2008
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros lots of functions, good scan quality
Cons slower than advertised, speed heavily dependent on your computer
Recommended it? Yes

A decision was made at my workplace to digitize all paperwork that was to be archived. In the computer age of today, the fastest way of doing so, is to get a good scanner and turn everything into a PDF document. So far so good. Since the amount of paperwork to be scanned is not overly big, a... Read full review »

Buyer Beware

bygreggfrank Dec 10, 2006
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Marketing lierature looks great. Maybe it would be acceptable if I were scanning photos.
Cons Slow and image quality poor. Not suited for production scanning.
Recommended it? No

I purchased this scanner to scan 2 sided documents for financial record keeping. What a mistake. Forget the speed listed in the marketing specs. If you use the ADF, expect 112-179 seconds per side at 600 DPI. Then, all the images appear very light. I tried all the software included in the package... Read full review »

15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good scan quality, inexpensive, relatively easy to use
Cons Software interface could be more user-friendly; large physical size
Recommended it? Yes

Recently my company purchased me a Hewlett Packard Scanjet G3010 Flatbed Scanner for use in my office. My job requires that I archive documents on our networked hard drive, which means that I have to scan hard copy documents into .pdf form. I have also used the scanner to scan photographs.

Good cheap scanner, but don't ever expect promised driver software!

byedweird May 6, 2007
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Lots of scanner for the money. Prodigious resolution at near-microscopic levels.
Cons Film-scanning feature completely (and most likely permanently) useless.
Recommended it? Yes

Mixed sentiments about this scanner:

Plain-paper scanning is excellent for such a cheap machine. Default chroma saturation is a bit weak, but that can be easily adjusted at software level. Scans made at the uppermost resolutions are naturally slow, but worth the trouble. The size of a... Read full review »
