Not quite Vista-Ready By Thursday As of early April 2007, here's what happens when you attach this scanner to a PC running under Vista. Instead of using the software & drivers supplied on CD's included with the scanner, you have to go to HP's website and download a temporary driver. This driver enables the scanner to just barely function, as a stopgap until HP gets around to releasing robust, fully-compatible, software & drivers. The barebones driver essentially tells the scanner to default to whatever scanner software utility is included in Vista. This means you will be scanning thru a Microsoft interface, not an HP one. As such, you get the ability to save images as JPG files, but not as PDF's. In other words, the scanner's 4 dedicated one-touch-scanning buttons don't do that much for you; they just take you into Microsoft's scanning interface, enabling you to scan & save into JPG files. HP has no comment on when they will get around to releasing fully functional Vista-compatible drivers & software. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, the scanner seems to work. It's reasonably fast at 300, but high resolution settings take a long time. It's reasonably quiet. The lid lifts right off the scanner if you have a thick/bulky object to scan. If you scan something small, you need to cover it with a sheet of white paper, or else the film negative slot in the lid will appear in the background of what you scan. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. An OK scanner for an OK price By Richard D. Mayatt The scanner is a little noisy. The software leaves a little to be desired. Your settings are not remembered between scans. Overall, it is a good scanner for the money and the scan quality is very good on prints. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. HP Scanjet G3010 Photo Scanner By Kirby It took me 3 weeks to figure out how to get it to work with my Windows XP. The directions said to install the software, then hook up the scanner to the computer. Didn't work, and I couldn't find any online help from HP. I finally decided to uninstall it (again, for about the 6th time), and then hook up the scanner to the computer first, then install the software, and it finally worked. Installing the scanner first prompted some other software already on my computer to install the hardware, which it didn't do by installing the software first. Does a nice job of scanning and editing, except no print-preview when selecting copy. See all 18 customer reviews...
